SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Human Genetics Research Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, May 4\, 2026\n11:00am - 12:00pm\n1020 Kahn Auditorium\, BSRB\n\nAlex Pollen\, PhD\nAssistant Professor\nNeurobiology\nDevelopmental & Stem Cell Biology\nUniversity of California\, San Francisco\n“Seminar Title TBD”\n\nHosted By: Xander Nuttle\, PhD\, Department of Human Genetics\n___\nWe study how genetic changes that accumulated over the last 6 million years of human evolution influence specialized features of brain development using single cell genomics\, cerebral organoid models of ape brain development\, and genome engineering.\n\nOver the last six million years\, human cognition has changed in remarkable ways to support symbolic language\, long-term planning\, cooperation on vast scales\, and the rapid cultural accumulation of technology. During this time\, patterns of brain development and life history changed to triple the number of neurons produced prenatally\, extend synaptic plasticity through a prolonged phase of development\, and restructure connectivity between brain regions. At the same time tens of millions of mutations accumulated as fixed changes in the human genome through the processes of selection and drift. A portion of this new genomic information guides the development of uniquely human traits and contributes to disease vulnerabilities shared by all humans. However\, connecting human-specific mutations to recently evolved traits remains a major challenge because we lack experimental systems for comparative and functional studies of great ape cortical development. To identify genomic differences underlying unique features or vulnerabilities of the human brain\, we are incorporating advances in single cell genomics and genome engineering with great ape cerebral organoid models of brain development. We are enthusiastic for new graduate students to join the team\, and the lab is well suited for those with an interest in evolution\, neuropsychiatric disorders\, neuronal cell diversity\, stem cell models\, or bioinformatics.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Revolutionary Paine: Andy Murphy Student-Curated Class Exhibit Common Sense
DESCRIPTION:Thomas Paine’s “Common Sense” was one of the most influential works of the American Revolution. The first edition was published on January 10\, 1776\, with an initial print run of just 1\,000 copies\; but within weeks demand soared. The students of Andy Murphy’s POLISCI 495 course co-curated the exhibition “Revolutionary Paine” to document the whirlwind caused by its publication. On view at the Clements January 16-May 8\, weekdays from 12-4 pm.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Tropical linear incidence geometry\, Lorentzian polynomials\, and linear series
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nLinear incidence geometry concerns the existence and enumeration of linear subspaces satisfying given incidence conditions. Over a field\, linear incidence geometry is well understood. Examples include Euclid’s first postulate\, Pappus’s theorem\, and the whole study of Schubert calculus. \n\nLinear spaces in the tropical world\, however\, can behave in unexpected ways. We will unravel some the subtlety of the incidence geometry of tropical linear spaces\, give counterexamples to certain incidence properties expected from the classical setting\, and discuss conditions on when they behave as expected. Then\, we will introduce a class of moduli spaces\, called the relative Dressians\, that are useful in understanding the geometry of tropical linear spaces. Finally\, we will explain the implications of tropical linear incidence geometry to the following three recent developments: Lorentzian polynomials\, linear series on tropical curves\, and the geometry of Grassmannians over hyperfields.
