  • Amir Farooqui & Dr. Elizabeth Stirling – Seminar Series

    Join us October 28th at 12:00 pm EST in TH253 for the Biological Sciences seminar titled:

    “Spatial Molecular Biology Solutions”

    Featuring: Amir Farooqui & Dr. Elizabeth Stirling

    Outline

    Bruker Spatial Biology, a division of Bruker Corporation, provides advanced spatial molecular biology solutions, including instruments, assays, software, and services to support life sciences research. By integrating technologies from NanoString and Canopy Biosciences, Bruker offers an extensive portfolio designed to meet the diverse needs of global researchers exploring spatial biology.

    The CosMx™ Spatial Molecular Imager (SMI) enables high-plex detection and analysis of over 6,000 RNAs with single-cell resolution and precise cell segmentation, supported by the cloud-based AtoMx™ Spatial Informatics Platform. The GeoMx® Digital Spatial Profiler is a leading platform for whole-tissue exploration, providing whole transcriptomics and high-plex proteomic readouts. The CellScape™ Precise Spatial Proteomics platform allows for high-plex protein expression analysis at single-cell resolution, using versatile, open-sourced reagents.  The nCounter® Analysis System enables rapid quantification of profiling of gene and miRNA expression with high sensitivity.

    Together, Bruker Spatial Biology’s solutions are supported by a strong team of scientists, sales, and service associates, along with Canopy Multiomic Services for biopharmaceutical research, assay development, and clinical sample testing.

  • Dr. Raineki Biological Sciences Seminar – April 22

    Join us April 22 at 12:00 pm EST for the Biological Sciences seminar titled:

    “Uncovering biological mechanisms for the developmental origins of health and disease: A translational approach”

    Featuring: Dr. Charlis Raineki, Brock University

    Outline

    My laboratory’s primary research interest is to uncover biological mechanisms of neurobehavioral deficits induced by pre- and/or postnatal adverse experiences, with a special focus on understanding the increased vulnerability for psychopathology associated with these early insults. In this talk, I will discuss some of the ongoing and future work in my laboratory using animal models (rodent and nonhuman primate) and human cohorts.

  • Dr. Mashoodh Biological Sciences Seminar – April 8

    Join us April 8 at 12:00 pm EST for the Biological Sciences seminar titled:

    “Epigenetics, inheritance and adaptation within the family environment”

    Featuring: Dr. Rahia Mashoodh, Cambridge University

    Outline

    The role of epigenetics in mediating developmental plasticity both within and across generations provides a novel framework for understanding the inheritance of individual variations in phenotype and the role of the
    environment in inducing heritable modifications. In this talk, I will discuss evidence for maternal and paternal epigenetic influence on development and the pathways through which these influences may lead to transgenerational effects.
