SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:DCMB Tools and Technology Seminar by Jeongbin Park (Computational Medicine & Bioinformatics)
DESCRIPTION:About the DCMB Tools & Technology Seminar Series\n\nThe DCMB Tools and Technology Seminar Series is held in Medical Science Building 1 (MS1)\, Room 4B700\, each Thursday at 12pm EST. Each seminar highlights a computational tool\, technology\, or methodology that is under development or in current use and is of special interest to DCMB and University researchers. Presenters are U-M researchers and students.\n\nThese seminars are live-streamed and recorded and made available for future viewing via the DCMB YouTube Channel

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CCMB/DCMB Weekly Bioinformatics Seminar Series featuring Jianzhi Zhang\, PhD (Professor\, Ecology and Evolutionary Biology\, U-M)
DESCRIPTION:Jianzhi (George) Zhang is a Professor of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology interested in the relative roles of chance and necessity in evolution. He got his B. S. from Fudan University in Shanghai\, China\, and his Ph. D. in Genetics from Pennsylvania State University. He was a  Fogarty postdoctoral fellow at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases before moving to the University of Michigan.\n\nProfessor Zhang’s research focuses on two main research areas:  (1) yeast as an experimental system for studying evolution\, where his research group uses the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae and its relatives as model organisms to understand a variety of evolutionary processes such as the genetic basis of phenotypic variations among strains and species\, or molecular and genomic bases of heterosis\; and (2) computational evolutionary genomics where they use evolutionary\, genomic\, and/or systemic approaches to analyze publicly available data to characterize and understand pleiotropy\, robustness\, epistasis\, gene-environment interaction\, gene expression noise\, translational regulation\, RNA editing\, convergent evolution\, adaptation\, origin of new genes\, among-protein evolutionary rate variation\, and other important genetic and evolutionary phenomena. Projects may also involve modeling and simulation\, including the MICDE catalyst grant project where the team is using deep neural networks to infer molecular phylogenies and extract phylogenetically useful patterns from amino acid or nucleotide sequences\, which will help understand evolutionary mechanisms and build evolutionary models for a variety of analyses.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CCMB/DCMB Weekly Bioinformatics Seminar Series featuring Luis Zaman\, PhD (Assistant Professor of Complex Systems and  EEB\, U-M)
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Luis Zaman’s research spans several disciplines to answer fundamental questions about how evolution works. While he often approaches questions from an experimentalist’s perspective\, work in his lab relies on a mixture of computational\, mathematical\, and microbial systems. He is predominantly drawn to understanding host-parasite coevolution because the constant push-and-pull of antagonistic interactions emphasizes the dynamic and interdependent nature of biological evolution. These antagonistic interactions have been implicated in large-scale evolutionary patterns\, such as diversification\, sexual reproduction\, and increasing organismal complexity. How coevolution is further influenced by such large-scale patterns presents problems that orient the lab’s long-term goals.
