SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Application Still Open Future of Real Estate Competition
DESCRIPTION:Join the Weiser Center for Real Estate for the Fourth Annual Future of Real Estate Competition: REIT Challenge 2024! \n\nThis year’s FORE Competition will focus on selecting one (1) publicly traded REIT and improving their profitability and stature in the public eye. Students will create a Google Site to showcase their business plan and deliverables. Deliverables\, along with detailed rules and deadlines can be found below. \n\nThe competition will span roughly a month (Presentation & Awards will be November 19th)\, concluding with a 10-15 minute pitch presented to a panel of distinguished REIT professionals and an audience of their peers. Don’t miss your chance at the first place prize of $10K\, with prizes totaling $30\,000! Gather your team and be part of this exciting challenge!\n\nDon't have a team and still want to participate? Don't worry! Complete the form below by October 23rd\, and the Weiser Center will help with finding teammates. \n\nImportant Dates (all times EST):\n\n- Wednesday\, October 23rd: Deadline for team formation and/or to request support for finding teammates\n- Tuesday\, October 29th: Student Workshop for case study\n- Wednesday\, November 6th at 11:59 PM: Submission Deadline \n- Wednesday\, November 13th: Finalists will be notified\n- Tuesday\, November 19th: Final Future of Real Estate Presentations and Awards Event

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:DCMB / CCMB Weekly Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nSpatially resolved transcriptomics technologies have opened new avenues for understanding gene expression heterogeneity and tissue architecture by mapping gene expression directly to cell locations. In this talk\, I will introduce two recent studies in this field. The first evaluates 15 clustering methods for spatial transcriptomics data using semi-synthetic datasets to discern the contributions of gene expression\, spatial\, and histological data. Our results indicate that while additional data layers can enhance clustering accuracy\, they do not consistently outperform traditional gene-expression-based approaches. The second study introduces spVC\, a novel statistical method inspired by the initial findings and designed using a generalized Poisson model to effectively detect and interpret spatial gene expression variations. spVC seamlessly integrates constant and spatially varying effects of covariates\, facilitating comprehensive exploration of gene expression variability and enhancing interpretability. These contributions reflect our ongoing commitment to refining analytical techniques in spatial transcriptomics\, ultimately enriching our biological understanding.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Disillusioned: Five Families and the Unraveling of America's Suburbs
DESCRIPTION:Join the Center for Racial Justice in welcoming author and journalist Benjamin Herold for a conversation about his latest book Disillusioned: Five Families and the Unraveling of America's Suburbs. Through the stories of five American families\, Disillusioned is a masterful and timely exploration of how hope\, history\, and racial denial collide in the suburbs and their schools. Herold will be joined in conversation by a panel of experts in sociology\, public policy\, and public health.\n\nPlease note: this event will not be livestreamed but a captioned recording will be sent to all registrants following the conclusion of the panel.
