3 cancer stories – from colloidal drug aggregates to 3D cell culture to targeted delivery
Frontiers in Interdisciplinary Biosciences Seminar
MOLLY SHOICHET, UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO
The Shoichet lab's research program requires a cross disciplinary approach where aspects of engineering, chemistry, and biology are applied to the fields of Regenerative Medicine, Tissue Engineering and Drug Delivery. They have become very interested in drug discovery, drug screening and drug delivery in cancer.

How Microglia Prune Synapses in Health & Disease
Frontiers in Interdisciplinary Biosciences Seminar
BETH STEVENS, BOSTON CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL AND HARVARD MEDICAL SCHOOL
One of the major unsolved mysteries in neuroscience is how synapses are eliminated in the developing and diseased brain. During development synaptic pruning is required for precise brain wiring; however the mechanisms that drive the elimination of specific synapses remain elusive. Emerging evidence implicates resident phagocytes called microglia, and molecules traditionally associated with the immune system.

Crossing Boundaries to Propel Tissue Engineering into the Clinic: Sponsored by Stanford Bio-X and the University of Sydney ADATE
The symposium is co-sponsored by the Bio-X Program at Stanford University and the Alliance for Design & Application in Tissue Engineering (ADATE) led by the University of Sydney. The program will feature multiple invited talks, a session of contributed short talks from students and postdocs, a thematic poster reception, and a biotechnology entrepreneurship panel.
The goal of the symposium is to expose and educate scientists spanning a wide variety of disciplines about the advances being made in the field of tissue engineering. The Symposium aims to attract students, postdocs, and faculty from many disciplines in Biology, Engineering, Medicine, and Chemistry from Stanford and our sister institutions in the Bay Area, including UCSF and UC-Berkeley as well as attendees from local biotech industry and our Australian guests.
