SUMMARY:Science For All Seasons
DESCRIPTION:Science for All Seasons gives you a chance to explore hot topics in genomics with leading experts from the Broad Institute. Find out what key advances\, new technologies\, and the latest findings mean for you in this free and open lecture series.\n2021 Lectures \nTuesday\, January 26\, 5:00-6:00pm\nClarity from comparison: How other animals’ genomes illuminate our own\nElinor Karlsson and Diane Genereux \n\nREGISTER\n\n\n\nThe human genome is huge — more than three billion As\, Cs\, Ts\, and Gs strung together and packaged into 23 chromosomes. But even with the biotech advances of the last 20 years\, its workings remain mostly a mystery. \nThe Zoonomia Project is comparing hundreds of species’ genomes to investigate genome function. We are finding that some parts of the genome are so important that they are identical among species separated by millions of years of evolution\, while others are uniquely human. By discovering the genomic secrets of species that perform incredible feats of physiology — such as hibernating ground squirrels that go months without eating\, and deep-diving seals that endure minutes without breathing — we are using evolutionary history to help inform the next generation of therapeutics. \nGenome biologists Elinor Karlsson and Diane Genereux will describe how comparative genomics is shaping our understanding of human health and\, in the process\, supporting efforts to protect species at risk of extinction.

SUMMARY:The Third Annual Food Allergy Science Initiative Symposium: Food Biology in Health and Disease
DESCRIPTION:The Food Allergy Science Initiative (FASI) at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard is the first coordinated effort to create a field of study around food allergy. Our team leverages talent and resources from MIT\, Harvard\, the Harvard Medical School-affiliated hospitals\, Yale\, the University of Massachusetts\, and beyond. We have assembled a team of experts across a wide variety of disciplines—from gastroenterology to immunology\, from the clinic to the bench\, and from computational biology to engineering. Bringing together these specialists will result in innovative solutions that overcome the fundamental hurdles of food allergy research. \nFood allergy continues to threaten millions of children and adults\, but we don’t understand why it’s becoming more common—or how we can best treat it. Unless we understand the underlying biological bas is of the disease now\, there will be no therapeutic progress. Now is the time to apply these tools to change the future of food allergy. \nClick here to learn more about FASI.

SUMMARY:Virtual Symposium: Closing the Gap Between Research and Clinical Application - Neuroimaging Indicators of Brain Structure and Function
DESCRIPTION:If you have an interest in brain imaging and want to maximize the impact of your work on human health\, this symposium is for you. Spanning the full range of technological advances – from image acquisition and processing to clinical translation\, to working with increasingly large datasets – this symposium will focus on ways in which neuroimaging can transform healthcare. \nYou will have the opportunity to hear from our expert faculty who develop and utilize mechanisms so that currently available brain images from both clinical repositories and research archives may be mined for exciting\, new insights into brain structure and function – powering forward efforts to discover non-invasive\, reliable indicators of brain health that help us understand disease vulnerability and resilience. Speakers will share methodologies and innovations from their labs\, highlight opportunities for advancing the field\, and critically examine the challenges that they face. \nUnique to this virtual symposium\, we offer forums for participants to engage directly with our expert faculty in topic-specific breakout rooms. Trainees (student\, postdoctoral\, or clinical fellow) have the additional option of signing up for a mentoring circle with one of our faculty. \nHuman brain imaging holds immense promise for elucidating the biological basis of brain health and disease.\nWe hope you will be able to join us on February 12th and be a part of these critical conversations!

SUMMARY:MIT Microbiome Club Seminar: Dr. Daniela Vargas
DESCRIPTION:Talk Title: Passenger-surface microbiome interactions in the subway of Mexico City. \nAbstract: Interaction between hands and the environment permits the interchange of microorganisms. The Mexico City subway is used daily by millions of passengers that get in contact with its surfaces. In this study\, we used 16S rRNA gene sequencing to characterize the microbiomes of frequently touched surfaces\, also comparing regular and women-only wagons. We also explored the effect of surface cleaning on microbial resettling. Finally\, we studied passenger behavior and characterized microbial changes after traveling. \nBio: Dr. Daniela Vargas received her bachelor’s degree from Universidad de Los Andes(Venezuela). Later\, Dr. Vargas specialized in microbial ecology during her PhD at University of Puerto Rico\, where she graduated in 2018. Since then\, she has worked as a postdoctoral researcher at Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana (Mexico). Dr. Vargas’ research on urban microbiomes has been published in PLOS ONE and Nature. She also has interest in the study of human microbiomes and their relationship with pathogens such as Human Papillomavirus.

SUMMARY:9th Annual Translational Science Symposium - In Memory of Dr. David Seldin
DESCRIPTION:Society is increasingly seeking answers about the role and impact that racism and structural oppression play in every facet of medical research conducted in the US. \nThis year\, the CTSI has chosen to fashion our 2021 CTSI Symposium in memory of Dr. David Seldin as a fresh opportunity for the BUMC/BMC/BU research community to ponder these questions\, challenges\, and the difficult decisions associated with this focus. You will learn from fellow researchers who have thoughtfully and rigorously applied anti-racist principles to engage in clinical and translational medical research. \nThis year’s event is shaping up as one of our most timely\, salient\, and important symposiums. We sincerely hope you can join us!
