QCBio Research Seminar: Alexander Markowitz (Boutros), Postdoc in Human Genetics

Boyer 159 611 Charles E. Young Dr. E., Los Angeles

TITLE: "A pan-cancer multi-omic analysis of tumor proliferation." ABSTRACT: The underlying mechanisms of dysregulated cellular proliferation in cancer remain unclear; however, it is hypothesized that specific mutations, mutational signatures, evolutionary trajectories and other global (epi)genomic features may be linked to differing rates of proliferation. In this presentation, I will showcase a landscape analysis of cellular proliferation […]

QCBio Research Seminar: Ricky Wolff (Garud), Graduate Student in Ecology & Evolutionary Biology

TITLE: "Ecological Stability Emerges at the Level of Strains in the Human Gut Microbiome." ABSTRACT: The human gut microbiome is a complex community that harbors substantial ecological diversity at the species level, as well as at the strain level within species. In healthy hosts, species abundance fluctuations in the microbiome community are thought to be […]
