Frontiers in Quantitative Biology Seminar

CAROLYN BERTOZZI, STANFORD UNIVERSITY

The Bertozzi Group studies cell surface interactions that contribute to human health and disease with specific projects in the areas of cancer, inflammation and bacterial infection.

Frontiers in Interdisciplinary Biosciences Seminar

KANG SHEN, DEPARTMENTS OF BIOLOGY AND PATHOLOGY

The connectivity of a neuron (its unique constellation of synaptic inputs and outputs) is essential for its function. Neuronal connections are made with exquisite accuracy between specific types of neurons. How each neuron finds its synaptic partners has been a central question in developmental neurobiology.

Frontiers in Quantitative Biology Seminar

WOLFGANG BAUMEISTER, MAX PLANCK INSTITUTE

Projects in Dr. Baumeister's group include using Cryo-Electron Tomography, exploring phase contrast methods, understanding the 26S proteasome, studying the structural mechanisms of neuodegenerative disease, studying the structural mechanisms of visual proteomics, studying tripeptidyl peptidase II, studying the 70S ribosome, examining membrane and cell wall proteins, and studying synaptic complexes.

Frontiers in Quantitative Biology Seminar

LINGCHONG YOU, DUKE UNIVERSITY

The You lab's research is at the nexus of biology, engineering, and medicine. They combine mathematical modeling and experiments to analyze dynamics of cell signaling processes, including cell cycle regulation, bacterial response to antibiotics, and cell-cell communication.

Frontiers in Quantitative Biology Seminar

MARK BRYNILDSEN, PRINCETON UNIVERSITY

The Brynildsen research group uses both computational and experimental techniques in systems biology, synthetic biology, and metabolic engineering to understand and address threats to human health.

Frontiers in Quantitative Biology Seminar

SOPHIE DUMONT, UC SAN FRANCISCO

The Dumont Lab is interested in how cells coordinate mechanical and chemical activities to accurately segregate chromosomes during cell division.

Frontiers in Quantitative Biology Seminar

LONG CAI, CALTECH

The main focus of the Cai group is single cell systems biology. They use super-resolution and live cell microscopy to study gene regulatory networks in cells and organisms.

Frontiers in Quantitative Biology Seminar

ARJUN RAJ, UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA

The Raj lab is interested in building a quantitative understanding of cellular function. They like to develop new tools for quantifying biological processes based on imaging and sequencing and then use those techniques to help us answer questions in molecular and cellular biology.
