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.

SUMMARY:Research: From academia to venture capital (In-person Guest Lecture)
DESCRIPTION:Graduate Seminar Series: Cell and Tissue Stream \n*Note this lecture can count towards your seminar series requirement  \nPresentation Title: Research: From academia to venture capital \nLocation:  WB116 \nAbstract: \nAs scientists\, we continuously strive to push our understanding of the world. As scientists in venture capital\, we try to apply the learnings from academic research to help identify\, evaluate\, and build novel companies. Join us for a discussion on the mission and philosophy of the Research team at Foresite Capital\, and the similarities and differences between research in academia and venture. \nLecturers: \nScott McIsaac\, PhD \nScott is a scientist and technologist\, having made numerous contributions in the fields of synthetic biology\, systems biology\, and the computational and experimental study of transcriptional regulation. Scott comes to Foresite from Calico (a Google/Alphabet-funded life sciences company)\, where he led an independent research laboratory as one of its earliest hires. Scott received his Ph.D. from Princeton University with David Botstein and his postdoctoral training at CalTech with Frances Arnold. \nJacob Barlow\, PhD \nJacob has a broad range of academic and industry research experience in sequencing technologies\, drug delivery\, diagnostics\, and the human microbiome. Previously\, Jacob was a fellow at Northpond Ventures handling life science tools and diagnostics investments and completed his Ph.D. in Bioengineering from CalTech in the lab of Rustem Ismagilov. He also worked on RNA delivery at Moderna Tx and oral peptide delivery at Entrega Tx. \n

SUMMARY:Graduate Seminar Series: Molecular Stream - Julien Couture-Senécal
DESCRIPTION:Graduate Seminar Series: Molecular Stream\nGraduate Seminar Series for the Institute of Biomedical Engineering (BME). This day is for molecular stream presenters.\nIf you would like to invite your Principal Investigator\, please add their email via the ‘Add Guest’ button and they will also be notified of your presentation.\nPresentation Title: Optimization of ionizable lipids for mRNA delivery\nAbstract: Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) play a key role in the efficacy of mRNA vaccines. Efforts have focused on engineering the ionizable lipid component as it has dramatic effects on safety and efficacy. In this work\, we’ve designed a new ionizable lipid optimized for intramuscular administration of mRNA. We also provided insights on the effect of molecular design and nanoparticle physicochemical parameters on mRNA delivery efficiency.\nSupervisor Name: Omar F.
