SUMMARY:Soma Weiss Student Research Day
DESCRIPTION:Soma Weiss Student Research Day is an annual forum where medical and dental students present their scholarly work and learn about the investigative work of their peers. The event\, first organized by Harvard faculty and medical students in 1940\, honors the memory of Soma Weiss\, MD (1899-1942)\, an inspiring teacher and physician at HMS and an ardent supporter of student research. The day consists of a poster session and selected student oral presentations. It provides students with an opportunity to interact with faculty\, staff\, and peers from the greater Harvard community. \n  \nLearn more!

SUMMARY:Variant to Function Symposium
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday\, March 19\, 2024\n9:00 am – 7:00 pm\nMerkin Lobby and Auditorium \nLarge-scale human genetic studies have succeeded in identifying hundreds of thousands of variants associated with human diseases and traits. One of the grand challenges on the frontier of human genomics and health is to pioneer new scalable paradigms and technologies to systematically link these many variants to cellular programs and gene regulation networks driving complex disorders. This will enable a deep understanding of the genetically-anchored biological programs affected in diseases\, lay the foundation for a new generation of rationally designed medicines\, and benefit patients and societies across the globe. The Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Genomic Mechanisms of Disease is thrilled to host a symposium highlighting some of the important work and progress ongoing across the vibrant Broad Institute community in this domain. Please join us for an exciting day of science and discussions around this topic. \nCo-chaired by Melina Claussnitzer and Kasper Lage \n  \nLearn more and register!

SUMMARY:Closing Out Your Research: Managing Data Transfer Between Collaborators
DESCRIPTION:Knowledge transfer refers to sharing or disseminating knowledge and providing inputs to problem-solving. When employees leave\, they take their skills and institutional knowledge with them. Capturing their knowledge and research outputs is essential to the success of future users. \nThis session will present the knowledge transfer process and what to document at the point of employee offboarding. We will explore how individuals collect\, organize\, access\, store and share project data in order to facilitate reuse and ongoing project work. \nInstructors: Julie Goldman\, Research Data Services Librarian\, Countway Library\nSarah Marchese\, Senior Research Data Management Analyst\, HMS Research Computing
