SUMMARY:Careers Beyond Academia - Laura Smith\, PhD Principal Scientist\, AmacaThera and Stephanie Fisher\, PhD Senior Scientist\, BlueRock Therapeutics
DESCRIPTION:About the series\nTo what extent can we plan and design our careers? How much depends on our environment\, the choices we make\, the opportunities that present themselves\, the networks we build\, and the achievements and failures we experience along the way? Medicine by Design and Stem Cell Network have partnered to host Careers Beyond Academia\, a virtual career seminar series that will profile a wide variety of different careers available to trainees who hold a degree in the life sciences. The goal of the series is to help trainees understand the different careers available outside of academia\, the skills required for certain positions\, and some of the daily functions of those positions.\nVirtual Event – Register Here\nSpeakers:\nLaura Smith\, PhDPrincipal Scientist\, AmacaThera\nStephanie Fisher\, PhDSenior Scientist\, BlueRock Therapeutics\nEach session will feature two speaker presentations that will be recorded and available on both Medicine by Design and Stem Cell Network’s website and YouTube channel. Trainees will be able to participate in a joint Q&A and panel discussion during the session.\n

SUMMARY:Global Speaker Series: Gordon Fishell\, PhD – Harvard University
DESCRIPTION:The Medicine by Design Global Speaker Series invites established and emerging international leaders in regenerative medicine to engage with our extraordinary community of researchers and clinicians. Medicine by Design\, in partnership with the McEwen Stem Cell Institute\, is pleased to welcome Gordon Fishell\, PhD\, Professor of Neurobiology\, Harvard Medical School and the Stanley Center at the Broad. The title of this talk will be\, “The intimate dependence and remarkable precision of cortical interneurons.” In Person – Register Here\nVirtual – Register Here\nHybrid event\, with in-person and virtual options\nIn-person will be held at the Terrence Donnelly Centre for Cellular & Biomolecular Research\, Red Room.\nVirtual event links will be sent after registration.\nMore About gordon fishell:\nProfessor Fishell teaches in the department of Neurobiology at Harvard Medical center and is an institute member of the Broad institute. He was previously the associate director of the New York University (NYU) Neuroscience Institute\, Julius Raines Professor of Neuroscience and Physiology at NYU\, and director of the graduate program in neuroscience and physiology at the NYU School of Medicine. Professor Fishell completed his Ph.D. in neurobiology from the University of Toronto and conducted postdoctoral research at Columbia University and the Rockefeller University. His laboratory is interested in how the architecture of brain circuits are assembled\, with a special focus on the diverse populations of inhibitory interneurons that are found in both pallial and subpallial telencephalon. Professor Fishell’s laboratory has spent the past 20 years working to understand the inhibitory cells that regulate excitatory signaling in the brain.\n Learn more about Gordon Fishell

SUMMARY:TBEP Research Seminar: Wnt in heart formation and regeneration
DESCRIPTION:Daniela Panáková\, Ph.D. \nGroup Leader \nMax Delbrück Center\, Berlin\, Germany \nDaniela Panáková received her PhD in 2005 at Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics\, Dresden\, Germany under the supervision of Suzanne Eaton. She has worked with Drosophila model on the concept of how the hydrophobic morphogens such as Wnt can spread in tissues over long distances\, and identified a novel mechanism whereby lipoprotein particles act as vehicles for the lipid-linked proteins\, and are required for Wingless and Hedgehog signaling. In 2007\, as a Human Frontier Science Program Long-term Fellow she moved to Harvard Medical School/Brigham & Women’s Hospital\, Boston\, MA to work with Calum MacRae. Using zebrafish\, she has demonstrated non-canonical Wnt signaling modulates electrical coupling in the developing heart through negative regulation of L-type Ca2+ channel function\, which established a novel limb in non-canonical Wnt signaling. She was awarded highly esteemed Helmholtz Young Investigator Award to start her own research lab at Max Delbrück Center in Berlin\, Germany in 2011. Teaching\, training and mentoring form a great part of her endeavors as an independent investigator. She has served as a Confidential Advisor for both the PhD and Postdoc body at the MDC and was part of the Gender Equality and Equal Opportunity team at the MDC. \nDaniela Panáková’s long-standing research interest addresses how developmental signaling and physiology regulate cellular responses including cell fate and differentiation. Her main focus is to decipher how Wnt pathway interacts with mechanical and electrical cues in cell and zebrafish models. Her group made significant contributions to the understanding of heart formation and function\, and more recently also to heart regeneration. Her ultimate goal is to uncover cellular mechanisms underlying cardiovascular diseases including heart failure. Her research focuses on cardiac biology\, but on the broader scale has implication for cell\, tissue and organ biology.
