SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Student Dissertation Defense - Interactions Between Viruses\, Bacterial Hosts\, and their Environment
DESCRIPTION:Morgan Lindback\, EEB PhD student\, presents their dissertation defense.\nAbstract:\n“In every blink of an eye (0.3 seconds)\, the number of viral infections in the ocean (3 x 10^22) equals the number of stars in the universe” (Breitbart et al 2018). With such high frequency and magnitude\, viral infections of bacteria in the oceans have ecosystem-level impacts on ocean biogeochemical cycling and population-level impacts on whole microbial communities. I combine laboratory experiments (nanoSIMS and 'omics) and computational approaches (metagenomics) to understand the interactions between these viral infections and their environment. In this talk\, I'll illustrate the impact viral infection has across macromolecules\, population dynamics\, resource use\, and gene evolution.\n\nEmail eeb.gradcoord@umich.edu for access to this seminar virtually.

SUMMARY:Ceremony / Service:Celebrating Scott Fogler's Legacy
DESCRIPTION:We invite you to join us for a heartfelt remembrance of the late Professor Scott Fogler as we come together to honor his memory with a special tribute in the Dow building. Professor Fogler's contributions to both the field of Chemical Engineering and the lives of those he touched have left a lasting impact on our campus and beyond.\n\nTo pay tribute to his remarkable work\, publications and life a memorial plaque will be displayed in Dow to reflect his legacy and celebrate the influence he has had on our community.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Responsible and Ethical Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Biomedical Research
DESCRIPTION:After a brief historical overview of the history of AI and how it has been used to date in basic and translational biomedical research\, we will review the fundamental concepts of AI and Machine Learning (ML)\, outlining key methods\, algorithms\, and capabilities. The critical concept of the AI Foundational Model will be explored\, leading naturally to a explanation and demonstration of Generative AI in the multi-model context. Several AI platforms will be examined\, driven by relevant biomedical use cases\, ranging from biomedical imaging\, single cell analysis\, spatial transcriptomics\, bioinformatics analysis\, and Generative AI-enabled literature review(s).  We will then review the need for data volume\, quality\, and integrity\;  as well as the required privacy and security considerations.  Key concepts of fairness\, bias\, safety\, and ethical use will be emphasized.  Current strengths and limitations of AI methods will be reviewed\, with consideration given to current and future potential uses.   We will leave adequate time for Q&A and discussion.
