12pm: Emily Maciejewski (Ernst), Grad Student, Computer Science TITLE:  “Cross-species and tissue imputation of species-level DNA methylation samples” ABSTRACT: DNA methylation data is highly informative to study a variety of aspects of mammalian biology. The availability of such data for many mammals at conserved sites was recently vastly enhanced by the development and large-scale application […]

TITLE: “Inducible plasmid copy number control and a blueprint for a synthetic genetic feedback optimizer” ABSTRACT: The ability to control gene expression has been paradigm shifting for all areas of biological research, especially for synthetic biology. This talk will focus on two recent advancements in gene expression control. First, TULIP (TUnable Ligand Inducible Plasmid) is presented: a self-contained plasmid with inducible copy […]

TITLE: “Stochasticity in cancer immunotherapies: identifying the T cell subset that sparks tumor eradication” ABSTRACT: We use an ex vivo model of tumor eradication to dissect the fundamental variability of clinical outcomes in cancer immunotherapies. We demonstrate that there exists an inherent stochastic variability in immune responses, based on the low abundance of hyper-responsive naïve T cells (so-called […]
