SUMMARY:Well-being:Lunchtime Yoga
DESCRIPTION:Lunchtime yoga is an opportunity to provide your body with some gentle movement\, strengthening\, stretching and balancing.  We will use the poses to reconnect with your senses\, to breathe some life back into ourselves\, find internal balance and to recover from the efforts of the work week.  The focus is on calm reconnection with ourselves rather than working out.  Please bring a mat and a water bottle. Register on our website\, see link below.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:MCDB Seminar Series> Finding THOR’s Hammer: Multiomics search for the driver of microbiome function
DESCRIPTION:Microbiomes drive the health of ecosystems on Earth\, mitigating global problems as disparate as climate change and depression. Their complexity makes communities difficult to study\, preventing scientists from elucidating the ways to improve environmental and human health. To understand the molecular pathways of microbiomes\, we developed a model microbial system composed of three bacterial species originally isolated from plant roots: Pseudomonas koreensis\, Flavobacterium johnsoniae\, and Bacillus cereus. We characterized the interactions among the members and identified community-specific genes and small molecules. We found that P. koreensis and its antibiotic\, koreenceine\, influence global patterns of gene expression and secreted metabolite profiles. The broad influence of one small molecule suggests new strategies to study and manage microbiomes.\n\nBio: Dr. Jo Handelsman is the Director of the Wisconsin Institute for Discovery at the University of Wisconsin-Madison\, a Vilas Research Professor\, and Howard Hughes Medical Institute Professor. She previously served as a science advisor to President Barack Obama as the Associate Director for Science at the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) where she served for three years until January 2017\, and was on the faculty at the University of Wisconsin and Yale University before that. She received her Ph.D. at the University of Wisconsin–Madison in Molecular Biology and has since authored over 200 scientific research publications\, 30 editorials\, and 29 essays. She is responsible for groundbreaking studies in microbial communication and metagenomics. She is also widely recognized for her contributions to science education and diversity in science. She has authored numerous articles about classroom methods and mentoring and she is co-author of six books about teaching\, including Entering Mentoring and Scientific Teaching. She received the Presidential Award for Excellence in Science\, Mathematics\, and Engineering Mentoring from President Obama in 2011\, was inducted into the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2019\, and elected to the National Academy of Sciences in 2023.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:T.REX
DESCRIPTION:With stunning CGI visuals and the latest research from leading paleontologists\, the film offers audiences a fresh perspective on the GOAT (Greatest Of All Tyrants): Tyrannosaurus rex. Anchored by the true story of the young fossil hunters who made the discovery of a lifetime when they spotted a large fossilized leg bone on a walk on public lands in North Dakota\, T. REX intercuts the remarkable fossil dig\, with cutting edge computer graphics that bring the iconic T. rex to life—from hatchling to hulking adult. Narrated by Jurassic Park actor Sam Neill\, T. REX explores the newest science that has helped reinvent our understanding of the iconic predator.
