SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Human Genetics Research Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, May 11\, 2026\n11:00am - 12:00pm\n1020 Kahn Auditorium\, BSRB\n\nTony Capra\, PhD\nProfessor\nBakar Computational Health Sciences Institute\nDepartment of Epidemiology and Biostatistics\nUniversity of California\, San Francisco\n“Seminar Title TBD”\n\nHosted By: Xinjun Zhang\, PhD\, Department of Human Genetics\n___\nWe use the tools of computer science and statistics to address problems in genetics\, evolution\, and biomedicine. For a summary of our major research foci\, see Research.\n\nOur group is located in the Bakar Computational Health Sciences Institute and the Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics at the University of California\, San Francisco. Prior to coming to UCSF\, Tony spent 7 wonderful years at Vanderbilt University.\n\nHumans differ from one another and our closest living relatives\, the chimpanzees\, in a wide range of traits\, including our susceptibility to many diseases. We model the evolutionary processes that have produced these novel traits and develop algorithms that compare genomes to predict the functional relevance of specific genetic differences between individuals and species.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Human Genetics Research Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, May 18\, 2026\n11:00am - 12:00pm\n1020 Kahn Auditorium\, BSRB\n\nArneet Saltzman\, PhD\nAssistant Professor\nDepartment of Cell & Systems Biology\nUniversity of Toronto\n“Seminar Title TBD”\n\nHosted By: Stephanie Bielas\, PhD\, Department of Human Genetics\n___\nMost of the cells in an organism share the same genome sequence\, yet they are able to carry out many distinct functions. Along with other layers of gene regulation\, chromatin modification plays a key role in this cellular specialization. Our research focuses on histone modifications such as lysine methylation\, and the proteins that recognize these modifications\, which are often referred to as chromatin ‘readers’. Chromatin readers can recruit and act as part of diverse chromatin modifying protein complexes to mediate the silencing of many genes with important functions in cell proliferation and differentiation. We will use a combination of genetic\, biochemical and genome-wide sequencing approaches to investigate the striking regulatory complexity of chromatin readers. Our research will contribute to a better understanding of how cells acquire and maintain different fates during development\, how chromatin readers contribute to epigenetic inheritance\, and how aberrant regulation of histone methylation contributes to the pathogenesis of several human diseases\, including cancers.
