Microbially inspired solutions to challenges in medicine and in alternative energy
FRONTIERS IN INTERDISCIPLINARY BIOSCIENCES SEMINAR
Dr. Sello's talk will be roughly one hour. Registered students must attend and sign in for credit; all other guests are welcome.
Cortical Interneurons: creation, wiring and disease
Frontiers in Interdisciplinary Biosciences Seminar

Single-cell analysis of the human brain
Frontiers in Interdisciplinary Biosciences Seminar
Individual cells in a population are often somewhat different from one to another. Measurements made on bulk cell populations do not capture the inherent heterogeneity of the cell population, and important insights can be missed.
From ideation to implementation: The journey of creating solutions that work in global health
Frontiers in Interdisciplinary Biosciences Seminar
SHIRLEY VILLADIEGO, JOHNSON AND JOHNSON
Methods for culturing mammalian cells in a biologically relevant context are increasingly needed to study cell and tissue physiology, expand and differentiate progenitor cells, and to grow replacement tissues for regenerative medicine.
