BRIAN HARGREAVES, DEPARTMENT OF RADIOLOGY
Attend Dr. Hargreaves's pre-seminar presentation to learn more about Dr. Mark Griswold's seminar, "Applications of Mixed Reality in Medical Education and Beyond", to be held Thursday, May 25th.
CHRISTINE JACOBS-WAGNER, YALE UNIVERSITY
The Jacobs-Wagner group studies the temporal and spatial mechanisms involved in bacterial physiology, with emphasis on chromosome dynamics, cell division, cell cycle regulation, cell morphogenesis and RNA biology. Their primary model organisms are Caulobacter crescentus, Escherichia coli and the Lyme disease pathogen Borrelia burgdorferi.
MIMI SHIRASU-HIZA, COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY MEDICAL CENTER
The Shirasu-Hiza Lab investigates circadian regulation of the immune system in Drosophila melanogaster.
AARON STRAIGHT, DEPARTMENT OF BIOCHEMISTRY and DAVID SCHNEIDER, DEPARTMENT OF MICROBIOLOGY & IMMUNOLOGY
Attend Drs. Straight and Schneider's pre-seminar presentation to learn more about Dr. Mimi Shirasu-Hiza's seminar, "Off the Clock: Circadian-Regulated Physiologies and Disease", to be held Thursday, May 4th.
JACOPO ANNESE, DIRECTOR OF THE BRAIN OBSERVATORY
Dr. Annese is a computational neuroanatomist whose formal training stems from a wide background in the biological sciences and the neurosciences.
JENNIFER MCNAB, DEPARTMENT OF RADIOLOGY
Attend Dr. McNab's pre-seminar presentation to learn more about Dr. Jacopo Annese's seminar, "Empathy by Neuroimaging: Making Humanized Brain Maps to Support Scientific Discovery, Education and Improved Health Care", to be held Thursday, April 13th.
The Elf lab has developed new methods for probing transcription factor dynamics at the level of single molecule in living cells. The lab is also developing new methods for tracking individual proteins molecules in living cells at ms time resolution.
LUCAS PELKMANS, UNIVERSITY OF ZURICH
The Pelkmans lab operates at the forefront of research in quantitative cell biology, in the study of cell-to-cell variability, as well as in systems approaches based on large- scale genetic perturbations and network biology.
Dr. Wong will discuss how organization of immune ligands impacts immune activation via Toll-Like Receptors, the surprising role played by innate immunity peptides in this organization, and how these effects are at play in inflammation induced by heart disease, necrotic cell death, neutrophil extracellular traps, and autoimmune diseases.
BO WANG, DEPARTMENT OF BIOENGINEERING and JIAN QIN, DEPARTMENT OF CHEMICAL ENGINEERING
Attend Dr. Wang's and Dr. Qin's pre-seminar presentation to learn more about Dr. Gerard Wong's seminar, "Physical chemistry and machine learning meet innate immunity", to be held Thursday, March 9th.
