Molecular mechanisms of chromatin remodeling motors
Frontiers in Interdisciplinary Biosciences Seminar
GEETA NARLIKAR, UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA SAN FRANCISCO
ATP‐dependent chromatin remodeling motors are essential for regulating how the genome is replicated, transcribed, repaired and recombined.

Rare somatic cells from human breast tissue exhibit extensive lineage plasticity
FRONTIERS IN INTERDISCIPLINARY BIOSCIENCES SEMINAR
THEA TLSTY, UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA SAN FRANCISCO
We identified cells within human adult tissue that can acquire a phenotypic plastic state. These rare cells can be directly isolated and shown to exhibit extensive lineage plasticity creating functional derivatives of heart, brain, bone, cartilage, gut and many more tissues.

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.

Dynamically Tunable Hydrogel Matrices: Cell Biology in the Fourth Dimension
Frontiers in Interdisciplinary Biosciences Seminar
KRISTI ANSETH, UNIV. OF COLORADO IN BOULDER
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.

Itch Mechanisms
Frontiers in Interdisciplinary Biosciences Seminar
XINZHONG DONG, JOHNS HOPKINS UNIVERSITY
Chronic itch conditions, such as those arising from atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, renal and liver diseases, drug treatment, significantly affects the quality of the patients’ lives.
