QCBio Research Seminar: Brandon Tsai (Boutros), Grad Student, Human Genetics
ZOOM CA, United StatesTITLE: "Exercise and tumor genomic landscapes in 2,702 patients with cancer" ABSTRACT: Approximately two-thirds of cancer diagnoses globally are attributed to modifiable lifestyle factors such as smoking, diet and inactivity. Conversely, regular exercise is linked to decreased risk of multiple cancers. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms are not fully elucidated. Specifically, how exercise impacts tumor genomic […]

QCBio Research Seminar: Jessica Ding (Yang), Grad Student, Molecular, Cellular, and Integrative Physiology
ZOOM CA, United StatesTITLE: "Multi-tissue single-cell level understanding of Alzheimer’s disease points to the therapeutic potential of nutritional and metabolic modulation." ABSTRACT: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by extracellular amyloid plaque deposition and intracellular neurofibrillary tangles. The direct cause of abnormal protein accumulation and aggregation is largely unknown, and no treatments exist to effectively delay […]
