SUMMARY:Dana Farber Targeted Protein Degradation Seminar
DESCRIPTION:What makes two proteins stick: dissecting molecular glue action\nWebinar registration:\nhttps://dfci.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_Hr3R9LRoRUagwczvrWsO7g \nHost: Mikolaj Slabicki \n\n\nNicolas H. Thomä \n\n\nThe Thomä laboratory is interested in chromatin-bound machines and their regulation by the ubiquitin proteasome system. Guided by structural biology\, we use a range of genetic\, chemical and complex biochemical reconstitution tools to study protein function in genome maintenance and transcription. A particular focus is on dissecting how chromatin and the ubiquitin transferase system interplay. In recent years\, the lab worked towards understanding how proteins\, such as ubiquitin ligases\, can be re-programmed by small molecules\, and how this insight can be used to develop novel drugs. \nDr Nicolas Thomä is a group leader at the Friedrich Miescher Institute in Basel\, Switzerland. He is an elected member of the European Molecular Biology Organization (EMBO) and of Academia Europeana. Dr Thomä is the recipient of the Novartis Leading Scientist Award and holds an ERC Advanced Grant.

SUMMARY:Alternate Careers in Biology: Science Policy
DESCRIPTION:Christine Liu\nPhD candidate\, University of California\, Berkeley\nSarah McGuiness\nPhD candidate\, University of Illinois\, Chicago \nAs academics\, we work to better contextualize our relationship with the natural world. Other disciplines\, especially art\, have their own distinct ways of analyzing our relationship to our universe in furtherance of this goal. Artistic representations of scientific ideas are interesting in their own right\, and can serve to improve your ability to communicate your scientific ideas. How can art help your science? Could your scientific work one day become part of a work of art? To what extent can you merge your scientific and artistic interests in a career? \nWednesday\, January 18\nZoom link: https://mit.zoom.us/j/96753238521\nPassword: MITBiology

SUMMARY:Turning Your Science into an Op-Ed
DESCRIPTION:Climate change. Gene editing. Facial recognition. Increasingly\, the public looks to science for guidance on moral and policy decisions. And a newspaper or magazine op-ed can be a powerful way for scientists to help inform the public discourse. In this workshop\, I’ll discuss why you should write an op-ed\, and I’ll give tips on pitching your idea to an outlet and writing a compelling essay for a general audience. This workshop is open to MIT Graduate students. Any remaining spots will be open to members of the MIT community starting July 17. Please RSVP. About the speaker: Ashley Smart is Associate Director of the Knight Science Journalism Program at MIT\, and Senior Editor of Undark magazine. He received a PhD in chemical and biological engineering from Northwestern University in 2007 and followed that with a two-year post-doc at the California Institute of Technology before taking up a career in science journalism. He is a member of the advisory board of the Council for the Advancement of Science writing and a co-chair of the diversity committee at the National Association of Science Writers. \nRegistration requested via Handshake. Open to MIT undergrads\, graduate students\, postdocs\, and alumni.

SUMMARY:Turning Your Science into an Op-Ed
DESCRIPTION:Climate change. Gene editing. Facial recognition. Increasingly\, the public looks to science for guidance on moral and policy decisions. And a newspaper or magazine op-ed can be a powerful way for scientists to help inform the public discourse. In this workshop\, I’ll discuss why you should write an op-ed\, and I’ll give tips on pitching your idea to an outlet and writing a compelling essay for a general audience. This workshop is open to MIT Graduate students. Any remaining spots will be open to members of the MIT community starting July 17. Please RSVP.

SUMMARY:Dana Farber Targeted Protein Degradation Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Brenda Schulman is a Director at the Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry.  She is broadly interested in how ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like proteins are matched with specific substrates\, and how they alter the functions of their targets to regulate the cell cycle\, autophagy\, metabolic signaling\, differentiation and other biological processes.  Her lab structurally visualizes transient ubiquitylation complexes trapped as if in action\, biochemically reconstitutes signaling pathways\, develops chemical tools to probe ubiquitin signaling\, and employs cell biology to investigate how ubiquitylation mediates regulation.  Schulman is an elected member of American Academy of Arts and Sciences\, the National Academy of Sciences\, EMBO\, and the German National Academy Leopoldina\, and has been recognized by awards including most recently the Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Prize and Ernst Jung Prize for Medicine.
