Research-in-Progress (RIP) Seminar: Jonathan Mah (Garud-Lohmueller), Graduate Student in Bioinformatics Interdepartmental Program

Boyer Hall 159

TITLE: "Inference of the demographic histories and selective effects of human gut commensal microbiota over the course of human history" ABSTRACT: Despite the importance of gut commensal microbiota to human health, there is little knowledge about their evolutionary histories, including their demographic histories and distributions of fitness effects (DFE) of mutations. Here, we infer the […]

Research-in-Progress (RIP) Seminar: Raag Agrawal (Boutros), Graduate Student in Genetics & Genomics, UCLA/Caltech MSTP

Boyer Hall 159

TITLE: "Discovering biomarkers for predicting response to neo-adjuvant ADT and radionuclide treatment in high-risk prostate cancer" ABSTRACT: Prostate cancer is the number one cause of cancer death in non-smoking American men. Next generation treatments for prostate cancer include androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) drugs such as Enzalutamide and radionuclide treatments like Lu-PSMA-617. While both of these […]

W3: Intro to R and Data Visualization

529 Boyer Hall 611 Charles E Young Dr E,, Los Angeles, CA, United States

R (www.r-project.org) is a free software environment for statistical computing and graphics. First, this workshop introduces basic concepts, syntax, and usage in R programming, statistical analysis, and visualization techniques. We will conduct hands-on tutorials throughout the session, giving attendees a chance to see R in action. This course is a pre-requisite for several other Collaboratory […]

QCBio Research Seminar: Rizal Hariadi, Associate Professor, Department of Physics and Biodesign Institute, Arizona State University

Boyer Hall 159

TITLE: Sensing and applying multi-axial tension to biomolecules using molecular devices built from DNA. ABSTRACT: DNA nanotechnology enables the construction of molecular devices for diverse biomedical applications. By leveraging DNA's exquisite positional control, researchers can engineer sophisticated nanostructures that execute a range of tasks. In this talk, I will present 2 DNA-based devices: an amphiphilic […]
