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.

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:Leveraging Your PhD: Why Employers Value Your Skills
DESCRIPTION:Join us for this opportunity to hear about the career transition experiences of GSAS alumni working in a variety of jobs outside academe. Alumni from the humanities\, social sciences\, and STEM fields will discuss their own career decision making\, how they adapted to jobs outside academia\, and how the skills and knowledge they developed during their graduate programs influenced their success. You’ll also be able to speak with alumni about their specific jobs and career paths in break-out rooms. PLEASE REGISTER TO ATTEND. \nPanelists: \n\nAnouska Bhattacharyya\, PhD ‘13 History of Science\, Director\, InclusionBoston @ YW Boston\nMara Block\, PhD ’15 Religion\, Strategy Lead\, Gemic\nKatherine Morris\, PhD ’19 Sociology\, Research Scientist\, Demography and Survey Science\, Facebook\nSuhare Nur\, PhD ’16 Applied Physics\, Global Lead\, Commercial Alliance\, IBM Quantum\nMichka Sharpe\, PhD ’20\, Biological and Biomedical Sciences\, Associate\, Flagship Pioneering\nJoseph Vitti\, PhD ’19 Organismic and Evolutionary Biology\, Scientific Engagement Manager\, Seven Bridges Genomics

Alumni from the humanities\, social sciences\, and STEM fields will discuss their own career decision making\, how they adapted to jobs outside academia\, and how the skills and knowledge they developed during their graduate programs influenced their success. You’ll also be able to speak with alumni about their specific jobs and career paths in break-out rooms. PLEASE REGISTER TO ATTEND. \nPanelists: \n\nAnouska Bhattacharyya\, PhD ‘13 History of Science\, Director\, InclusionBoston @ YW Boston\nMara Block\, PhD ’15 Religion\, Strategy Lead\, Gemic\nKatherine Morris\, PhD ’19 Sociology\, Research Scientist\, Demography and Survey Science\, Facebook\nSuhare Nur\, PhD ’16 Applied Physics\, Global Lead\, Commercial Alliance\, IBM Quantum\nMichka Sharpe\, PhD ’20\, Biological and Biomedical Sciences\, Associate\, Flagship Pioneering\nJoseph Vitti\, PhD ’19 Organismic and Evolutionary Biology\, Scientific Engagement Manager\, Seven Bridges Genomics

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!
