Cells carry out specialized functions throughout the body and each cell type functions distinctly from other cell types. Some cellular functions include transporting nutrients throughout the body and producing energy. One specialized cell is muscle cells which function to create a force that moves parts of the body. Another example are bone cells, whose functions include protecting internal organs from damage and storing minerals such as calcium.
Innate and adaptive immunity mechanisms provide antiviral protection in mammals. In this talk, I shall present recent findings from my lab and collaborators revealing a distinct form of mamm...
The host antiviral innate immune response involves activation of multiple signaling pathways that result in the production of type I interferons (IFN-I) and inflammatory cytokines, which tog...
Nagy is a Professor in the Department of Plant Pathology, University of Kentucky. Dr. Nagy studies the functions of host proteins and lipids in viral RNA replication. The Nagy lab is using a...
Date: July 07, 2021 Time: 8:00am (PDT), 11:00am (EDT) The DNA damage response is extremely crucial in maintaining genomic integrity. Failure to repair damaged DNA can result in the propagati...
Date: August 26, 2021 Time: 8:00am (PDT), 11:00am (EDT) My translational research program focuses on approaches to enhance the natural killer (NK) cell response to cancer, with an emphasis o...
In 1910, Harrison published the first report of frog embryonic sympathetic ganglia grown in hanging drops of lymph for a few days, where single neurons extended nerve fibers with complex gro...
The increasing burden of neurological disorders as our population ages, together with the high personal and societal costs of mental and substance use disorders, underscores the need for new...
The misfolding of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) such as tau and α-synuclein (αSyn) has been associated with the on-set and progression of Alzheimer’s (AD) and Pa...
Adolescence is a critical period for the developing brain, and binge drinking during this neuromaturation can result in enduring abnormal brain function and behavior. Repeated adolescent bin...
Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases (AD, PD) are the two most common neurodegenerative disorders. Despite their debilitating effects and increasing prevalence in society, no cur...
Multiscale modeling has arisen as a focus of computational systems biology, with the realization that genome, proteome, connectome, etceteromes, will only become comprehensible once placed i...
We will show how to combine large scale neural recordings and mechanistic neural network models to advance our conceptual understanding of how neural circuits mediate cognitive functions lik...
Learning Objectives: 1. Delineate the goals of studies of brain, computation and behavior and how they can be integrated. 2. Describe how neuromodulators such as oxytocin transform circuits...
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder with multiple motor and non-motor symptoms. PD is characterized by the presence on proteinaceous neuronal...
Date: August 24, 2021 Time: 11:00am (PDT), 1:00pm (EDT) Electron-based dissociation mechanisms have shown great promise for advanced characterization of biomolecules. However, routine adopti...
Date: August 18, 2021 Time: 8:00am (PDT), 11:00am (EDT) Discover the tools to phenotype your NK cells and to perform functional analyses such as cellular cytotoxicity assays. From NK cell is...
Though tumor targeting using chimeric receptors (CAR) engineered to bind tumor-associated surface proteins such as CD19 in B cells have demonstrated remarkable efficacy in cancer, this thera...
Gene editing technologies such as CRISPR/Cas9 have greater flexibility and high efficiency. CRISPR technology enables targeted insertion of transgenes at the desired locus and has the abilit...
Human T cells are critical effectors of immune protection from infections, autoimmune pathology, and cancer immunotherapy. We use CRISPR-mediated gene editing in primary human T cells to sys...
