TITLE: "Mechanisms of robust entrainment of biological oscillators involved in gastric peristalsis.” ABSTRACT: Oscillator entrainment is a widely observed phenomenon in natural systems. Using a computational modeling approach, we decipher […]
TITLE: "Defining chromatin accessibility and molecular dysregulation in Down Syndrome." ABSTRACT: Despite accumulating almost two centuries of medical information, the exact mechanisms underlying Down Syndrome (DS) developmental pathology remain unknown. DS […]
Associate Professor and Vice Chair of Academic Personnel, UCLA Institute for Society and Genetics “Citizen Scientific Racism: White Nationalist Appropriations of Genetic Research” Hosted by Christina Palmer
Panelist: Kirk Lohmueller
TITLE: "Advancing admixture graph estimation via maximum likelihood network orientation." ABSTRACT: Admixture, the interbreeding between previously distinct populations, is a pervasive force in evolution. The evolutionary history of populations in the […]
TITLE: "Sources of zeros in single-cell RNA-seq data and how they affect data analysis." ABSTRACT: Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) technologies have revolutionized biomedical sciences by enabling genome-wide profiling of gene expression levels at an unprecedented single-cell resolution. A distinct characteristic of scRNA-seq data is the vast proportion of zeros unseen in bulk RNA-seq data. Researchers […]

Panelist: Leonid Kruglyak
TITLE: "A simple, two-step, multivalent binding model predicts IL-2 mutein cell signaling profiles." ABSTRACT: The common γ-chain cytokines are promising immune therapies, but have been limited in their efficacy due to […]
TITLE: "Multimodal radiomic analysis of biparametric MRI to predict biochemical recurrence after radical prostatectomy." ABSTRACT: Integration of information across multiple modalities and biological scales has the potential to improve the prediction […]
