For instance, polylactide (PLA) is the most widely used biopolymer in medicine. Yet, for decades, PLA had been thought to activate immune cells by reducing surrounding pH because PLA biodegrades into monomers and oligomers of lactic acid. During my talk, I will discuss an alternative paradigm underscoring immune cell metabolism (immunometabolism) as the pivotal determinant of the proinflammatory versus pro-regenerative tissue microenvironment with biodegradable and non-biodegradable biomaterial examples. Further related to tissue engineering, I will present on reversing established cardiac dysfunction and fibrosis in heart failure (following myocardial infarction) via targeted and enzyme-responsive nanomaterials. Finally, I will unveil my vision to revolutionize therapeutic strategies for the various phenotypes of heart failure by leveraging the metabolic underpinnings of immune and stromal cell populations, thereby engineering next-generation clinical interventions that shape the future of medicine.", "occurrence_notes":"https:\/\/umich.zoom.us\/j\/98302088175", "guid":"137586-21880415@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/137586", "building_id":"1000406", "building_name":"Lurie Biomedical Engineering (formerly ATL)", "building_official_id":1000406, "campus_maps_id":"7", "campus_maps_link_path":"lurie-ann-and-robert-h-biomedical-engineering-bld", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/lurie-ann-and-robert-h-biomedical-engineering-bld", "room":"1130", "location_name":"Lurie Biomedical Engineering (formerly ATL)", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Basic Science"], "website":"http:\/\/bme.umich.edu", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"http:\/\/bme.umich.edu", "title":null } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Biomedical Engineering", "group_id":"1143", "website":"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/profile.php?id=100094127215673" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137586_original-1.jpg", "image_description":"A speaker talking to a group of students in a classroom.", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137586_original-1.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137586_original-1.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137586_original-1.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137586_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137586_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137586_original-1.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137586_original-1.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137586_original-1.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137586_original-1.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137586_original-1.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137586_original-1.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137586_original-1.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137586_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137586_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137586_original-1.jpg" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/137586\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21880415 } , { "id":"137763-21880720", "datetime_modified":"20250819T120424", "datetime_start":"20250829T120000", "datetime_end":"20250829T130000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-08-29", "date_end":"2025-08-29", "time_start":"12:00:00", "time_end":"13:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"MCDB Seminar> Modulation of striatal projection neurons by dopamine, acetylcholine, and antipsychotic drugs", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"MCDB Seminar> Modulation of striatal projection neurons by dopamine, acetylcholine, and antipsychotic drugs: Jones G.

These factors underscore the urgent need for innovative solutions. In this talk, we will present how artificial intelligence, driven by the urgent needs of healthcare, is advancing both clinical and technological frontiers. I will share our work on medical image reconstruction, MRI-based automated diagnosis, and AI-powered precision medicine solutions. These applications are built on specialized deep learning algorithms, such as video-based AI and longitudinal imaging reasoning, with a focus on integrating biological complexities into their design. By bridging engineering principles with clinical applications, we aim to transform medical diagnostics and treatment while broadening AI's impact across disciplines, paving the way for more effective

Outcomes\r\nSmall area estimation (SAE) helps us make accurate estimates for local communities or groups, such as counties, neighborhoods, or demographic subgroups, when there are not enough data for each area. This is important for targeting local resources and policies, especially when national-level or large-area data mask variation at a more granular level. Researchers often fit hierarchical Bayesian models to stabilize estimates when data are sparse. Ideally, Bayesian procedures also exhibit good frequentist properties, as demonstrated by calibrated Bayes techniques. However, hierarchical Bayesian models tend to shrink subdomain estimates toward the overall mean and may produce credible intervals that do not maintain nominal coverage. Hoff et al. developed the Frequentist, but Assisted by Bayes (FAB) intervals for subgroup estimates with normally distributed outcomes. However, non-normally distributed data present new challenges, and multiple types of intervals have been proposed for estimating proportions. We examine subdomain inference with binary outcomes and extend FAB intervals to improve nominal coverage and estimation efficiency. We describe how to numerically compute FAB intervals in the binary case and demonstrate their improvement through repeated simulation studies. Finally, we apply the proposed methods to estimate COVID-19 infection rates in subgroups, based on geography and demographic characteristics. This is joint work with Rayleigh Lei.\r\n\r\nYajuan Si is a Research Associate Professor in the Institute for Social Research at the University of Michigan. Yajuan\u2019s research lies in cutting-edge methodology development in streams of Bayesian statistics, linking design- and model-based approaches to survey inference, data integration, missing data analysis, confidentiality protection involving the creation and analysis of synthetic datasets, and causal inference with observational data.

robust, accessible platform for decoding the complexities of genome regulation and cellular identity. In this talk, we'll explore how recent improvements in accuracy, throughput, and targeted enrichment now allow us to phase variants, resolve repetitive loci, and detect epigenetic modifications\u2014often in the same molecule. These methods enable analysis of allele-specific methylation, chromatin accessibility, and protein-DNA interactions, even in challenging regions like centromeres or BRCA1. We'll also cover how these techniques apply to spatial and single-cell transcriptomics, empowering nuanced studies in neuroscience and cancer. Altogether, this work moves us closer to a future where multiomic profiling at single-molecule resolution becomes routine\u2014at the bench, not just the core.\r\n\r\nShort Bio\r\n\r\nWinston Timp, an associate professor of biomedical engineering, focuses on the development and application of sequencing technologies to gain a deeper understanding of biology and a more accurate set of clinical tools for human disease. He holds joint appointments in the Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics and the Division of Infectious Diseases at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.\r\n\r\nTimp\u2019s research integrates the principles of biophysics, molecular biology and computational biology to create new tools for exploring the epigenomes and genomes of different lifeforms ranging in size from the flu virus to hummingbirds to California redwoods.

Unlike traditional approaches that rely on bulk assays, novel spatial technologies preserve the tissue's architecture at near single-cell resolution, allowing for more precise functional interpretation of the cell types and states. In this talk, I will introduce spatial proteomics and spatial epigenetics, two leading methods that enable in situ detection of proteins and open chromatin. Compared to spatial transcriptomics, spatial proteomics directly addresses key challenges in visualizing cellular morphology and evaluating whether RNAs are the best proxies for proteins. I will discuss how these approaches advance our understanding of brain function and disease, particularly in psychiatric disorders and traumatic brain injury.",

brain. Unlike traditional approaches that rely on bulk assays, novel spatial technologies preserve the tissue's architecture at near single-cell resolution, allowing for more precise functional interpretation of the cell types and states. In this talk, I will introduce spatial proteomics and spatial epigenetics, two leading methods that enable in situ detection of proteins and open chromatin. Compared to spatial transcriptomics, spatial proteomics directly addresses key challenges in visualizing cellular morphology and evaluating whether RNAs are the best proxies for proteins.

Designing vaccines, immunomodulatory drugs, and cell therapies against infections, cancer, inflammatory conditions, and age-related disorders requires a detailed understanding of how immune cells form and activate in primary, secondary, and ectopic tertiary immune organs. Traditionally, research on the immune system has been restricted to in vivo approaches, which do not allow for the detailed control of intracellular and extracellular processes, and to 2D in vitro models, which lack physiological relevance. These models are being investigated to understand immune function and dysfunction at the cellular, tissue, and organ levels. In this talk, I will discuss my laboratory\u2019s effort in developing synthetic, human ex vivo immune organoids to replicate the structure and function of immune tissues. I will discuss strategies to combine engineered materials and immune cells from individuals to generate antibody-secreting cells in a dish or as organ-on-chip against viral and bacterial infections and describe immunogenicity testing efforts. I will further describe the use of human immune organoids in oncology and drug development space, and subsequently describe the integration of immune organoids with complex mucosal organ-on-chip technologies, with applications in inflammation, infection, and oncology. Complementing this, I will introduce nanoengineered wires functionalized with cationic polymers to program naive T cells without pre-activation, a critical advancement for adoptive T-cell therapies. By delivering single or multiple microRNAs, I will describe how nanowires modulate T-cell fitness, influencing proliferation, phenotypic differentiation, and effector molecule secretion. These programmed T cells exhibit enhanced in vivo protection against intracellular pathogens, with tailored differentiation into T cell subtypes.",

Training that focuses too heavily on practical applications may skip over foundational concepts, such as sampling theory, error reduction, or bias minimization. Without these foundations, researchers might design surveys that overlook important methodological considerations, potentially compromising data quality in ways that negatively affect insights and decision-making. At the same time, strong training programs often teach sophisticated survey methods (e.g., stratified sampling, regression analysis, psychometric scaling) that are used in academic or governmental research, but are impractical or overly complex in most industry contexts without adaptation to the time and cost constraints often present. A middle ground of training is often missing--one that trains researchers on how to adapt or simplify these more complex methodologies for practical use in the real world and how to make them accessible without sacrificing quality. The presenter will discuss the holes often seen in hiring trained survey researchers and the complimentary development that is necessary to bring them up to speed to be successful industry practitioners.\r\n\r\nCurtiss Cobb is a Vice President of Research at Meta where he leads the Demography and Survey Science Team, a quantitative focused research team that works across Meta to identify and share best practices and methodological innovations in demographic and survey research. His team oversees the collection of millions of survey responses a day from around the world using mobile, web, face-to-face and other methods. Prior to Meta, Curtiss was a senior director of survey methodology at GfK and has independently served on advisory panels or consulted for the U.S. State Department, CDC, Associated Press, World Health Organization, OECD and various academic studies.

While its clinical benefits are well documented, the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Due to the anatomical and cellular heterogeneity of brain tissue, DBS can modulate diverse neuronal elements and circuits at and around the stimulation site, many of which may not directly contribute to therapeutic effects. Moreover, conventional DBS systems typically operate in open-loop mode, delivering fixed stimulation parameters regardless of patient state or neural activity. Identifying the specific circuits that mediate therapeutic benefits is therefore critical for refining target selection and developing next-generation treatment strategies. Optogenetics provides a powerful tool to overcome the nonselective nature of DBS by enabling cell-type specific modulation of neural populations. By integrating optogenetic interventions with electrophysiological recordings, computational modeling, and behavioral assays in preclinical models of PD, our work seeks to dissect the circuit-level mechanisms underlying DBS and systematically evaluate how modulation of defined neural pathways alleviates parkinsonian motor symptoms. In addition, I will introduce our recent efforts toward the development and preclinical evaluation of closed-loop DBS systems, which dynamically adjust stimulation in response to ongoing neural and behavioral states. Together, these approaches aim to advance both our mechanistic understanding of DBS and the design of more effective, adaptive neuromodulation therapies for PD.", "occurrence_notes":"https:\/\/umich.zoom.us\/j\/98302088175", "guid":"139477-21885600@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/139477", "building_id":"1000406", "building_name":"Lurie Biomedical Engineering (formerly ATL)", "building_official_id":1000406, "campus_maps_id":"7", "campus_maps_link_path":"lurie-ann-and-robert-h-biomedical-engineering-bld", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/lurie-ann-and-robert-h-biomedical-engineering-bld", "room":"1130", "location_name":"Lurie Biomedical Engineering (formerly ATL)", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Basic Science"], "website":"http:\/\/bme.umich.edu", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"http:\/\/bme.umich.edu", "title":null } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Biomedical Engineering", "group_id":"1143", "website":"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/profile.php?id=100094127215673" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139477_original-1.jpg", "image_description":"A speaker talking to a group of students in a classroom.", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139477_original-1.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139477_original-1.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139477_original-1.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139477_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139477_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139477_original-1.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139477_original-1.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139477_original-1.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139477_original-1.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139477_original-1.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139477_original-1.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139477_original-1.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139477_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139477_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139477_original-1.jpg" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/139477\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21885600 } , { "id":"138234-21882659", "datetime_modified":"20250930T111901", "datetime_start":"20251004T103000", "datetime_end":"20251004T113000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-10-04", "date_end":"2025-10-04", "time_start":"10:30:00", "time_end":"11:30:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Saturday Morning Physics | Science of Baseball", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Saturday Morning Physics | Science of Baseball: Timothy Chupp (Professor of Physics and Biomedical Engineering)", "event_subtitle":"Timothy Chupp (Professor of Physics and Biomedical Engineering)", "event_type":"Presentation", "event_type_id":"16", "description":"A lot about baseball looks the same: high socks or low socks, 90-foot baselines, 60-feet\/6-inches.

Most strikingly, the proven single-molecule longread sequencing technologies have delivered the complete, gapless T2T human genome reference in recent years, while significant reductions in costs associated with the production of high-output, highly accurate shortread data in recent months is expected to accelerate the scale and resolution of single-cell, single-molecule, multi-omics analyses. All together, these technology innovations have placed us at the beginning of an exciting era when the knowledge of human genomes can be realized at populational scale to address the unmet needs in human diseases and precision medicine.\r\n\r\nAt the Northwest Genomics Center (NWGC), we have pioneered a suite of state-of-the-art genomic technologies ranging from long-read sequencing, single-cell multiomics, 3D chromatin organization survey, and spatial omics. Together with advances in data science aimed at systematically characterizing the functional consequences of disease-associated genetic variation, we have applied these approaches to facilitate multiple NIH precision medicine initiatives, including rare disease studies in GREGoR, genomic somatic variation analysis in SMaHT, and population-based genomic characterization in the All of Us Research Program. Our efforts have catalyzed research into the mechanistic underpinnings of health and disease. I will present how these technologies unlock the genetic alterations affected Mendelian conditions and derive mechanistic insights into how pathogenic variants induce 3D chromatin changes in oncogenic transformation.\r\n\r\n\r\nShort Bio\r\n\r\nChia-Lin Wei, PhD, focuses her research on the mammalian genome, which is extensively folded to form complex three-dimensional (3D) chromatin organization to facilitate functional interactions. These 3D structures and functional interactions are dynamic. Understanding these complex functional interactions and their variations will not only advance fundamental biological knowledge but also provide novel insights into human disease that could lead to new treatment paradigms.\r\n\r\nDr. Wei's research specifically concentrates on the development and application of advanced genomic technologies to decipher genome structures, their 3D organizations, and how they modulate molecular phenotypes and complex traits. Her lab pioneered pair-end-tag (PET) sequencing strategies to advance the understanding of genome variation and transcription regulation in shaping cellular behavior.\r\n\r\nIn recent years, the lab developed a suite of approaches including ChIA-PET, ChIA-Drop, and ChIATAC to map 3D chromatin conformation. These methods have transformed the understanding of how noncoding elements regulate transcription during development and disease states. Dr. Wei and her team further improved these assays to derive single-cell and single-molecule resolution for studying complex genome structural variation, specifically, the extrachromosomal DNA (ecDNA) function in cancer. In addition, as one of the pioneers in establishing long-read technologies, Dr. Wei leverages advances in single-molecule, long-read sequencing methods to better identify complex structural variants of ecDNA, their evolution, and impacts on ecDNA functions", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"140000-21886477@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/140000", "building_id":"1005047", "building_name":"Palmer Commons", "building_official_id":1005047, "campus_maps_id":"188", "campus_maps_link_path":"palmer-commons", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/palmer-commons", "room":"Great Lakes North", "location_name":"Palmer Commons", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Basic Science"], "website":"https:\/\/umich.zoom.us\/j\/93929606089?pwd=SHh6R1FOQm8xMThRemdxTEFMWWpVdz09", "links":[ { "type":"livestream", "url":"https:\/\/umich.zoom.us\/j\/93929606089?pwd=SHh6R1FOQm8xMThRemdxTEFMWWpVdz09", "title":"ZOOM Livestream" }, { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/medschool.umich.edu\/events\/ccmb-seminar-series\/ccmb-seminar-chia-lin-wei-phd\/2025-10-08", "title":"Event Webpage" } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of Computational Medicine and Bioinformatics DCMB", "group_id":"5384", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"DCMB Seminar Series", "group_id":"3754", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"", "image_description":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/140000\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21886477 } , { "id":"137203-21879943", "datetime_modified":"20250806T152619", "datetime_start":"20251009T100000", "datetime_end":"20251009T110000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-10-09", "date_end":"2025-10-09", "time_start":"10:00:00", "time_end":"11:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"LSI SciComm Series: Kate Zernike", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"LSI SciComm Series: Kate Zernike: The Exceptions: The Past, Present and Future of Women in Science", "event_subtitle":"The Exceptions: The Past, Present and Future of Women in Science", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"In 1999 the Massachusetts Institute of Technology publicly admitted that it had discriminated against the women on its science faculty.

Misinterpreting admixture\u2019s impact can have significant consequences for biomedical research. This study employs advanced computational biology to investigate how admixture shapes the genetic architecture of complex traits and influences GWAS outcomes. Using the forward-in-time population genetic simulator SLiM, we model trait evolution under admixture by varying the relationship between causal variant effect sizes and selection coefficients while accounting for population size changes and migration across five admixture scenarios. \r\n\r\nOur findings reveal that GWAS power is influenced by genetic architecture and population demographic history. Traits with weak correlations between effect size and fitness (e.g., anthropometric traits) show higher GWAS power compared to traits with stronger correlations (e.g., genetic diseases). Populations with recent bottlenecks exhibit higher GWAS power, highlighting the role of rare variants. Surprisingly, fine- mapping ability remains consistent across traits. Empirical validation using data from diverse populations, including the All of Us database, supports our simulation predictions. For anthropometric traits like height, common variants exhibit moderate effects, while for traits like malignant neoplasms, rare variants show larger effects and common variants minimal effects. \r\n\r\nBy integrating population and complex trait genetics, this study provides insights into how population history shapes genetic architecture and heritability. Our findings improve understanding of genetic studies in diverse populations, enabling more accurate biomedical applications and personalized medicine strategies. \r\n\r\nAbout The Tools & Technology Seminar Series\r\n\r\nThe DCMB Tools and Technology Seminar Series is held in Palmer Commons, Room 2036, each Thursday at 12pm EST.

However, the design of microrobotics systems is inherently tied to scaling-law constraints; as length scales decrease, surface forces and viscous forces (among others) begin to dominate inertial forces. This leads to fabrication bottlenecks, struggles with energy\/power autonomy, and the need for specialized and often unconventional actuators. \r\n\r\nIn this talk, I will present three unconventional microactuators developed in my own group.

These innovations highlight both the limitations imposed by microscale regimes and the opportunities that emerge when we embrace nontraditional transduction mechanisms for locomotion and manipulation.", "occurrence_notes":"https:\/\/umich.zoom.us\/j\/98302088175", "guid":"140186-21886714@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/140186", "building_id":"1000406", "building_name":"Lurie Biomedical Engineering (formerly ATL)", "building_official_id":1000406, "campus_maps_id":"7", "campus_maps_link_path":"lurie-ann-and-robert-h-biomedical-engineering-bld", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/lurie-ann-and-robert-h-biomedical-engineering-bld", "room":"1130", "location_name":"Lurie Biomedical Engineering (formerly ATL)", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Basic Science"], "website":"http:\/\/bme.umich.edu", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"http:\/\/bme.umich.edu", "title":null } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Biomedical Engineering", "group_id":"1143", "website":"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/profile.php?id=100094127215673" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140186_original-1.jpg", "image_description":"A speaker talking to a group of students in a classroom.", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140186_original-1.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140186_original-1.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140186_original-1.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140186_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140186_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140186_original-1.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140186_original-1.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140186_original-1.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140186_original-1.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140186_original-1.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140186_original-1.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140186_original-1.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140186_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140186_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140186_original-1.jpg" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/140186\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21886714 } , { "id":"140254-21886827", "datetime_modified":"20251003T074234", "datetime_start":"20251016T153000", "datetime_end":"20251016T163000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-10-16", "date_end":"2025-10-16", "time_start":"15:30:00", "time_end":"16:30:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Biomedical Engineering Seminar Series", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Biomedical Engineering Seminar Series: \"Engineering Native Biological Complexity from the Inside\u2013out and Outside\u2013in,\" Featuring Cole A.

Modern imaging technologies now allow us to map the exact location and type of cells across heterogeneous populations of patients, providing unprecedented resolution into this hidden ecology. Yet many analytic pipelines reduce this complexity to simple counts of each cell type, analyze one marker or cell at a time, or incorporate spatial information via ad-hoc or simplistic rules, failing to fully capture the overall spatial organization of the TME.\r\n\r\nStatistical ecology offers a principled alternative. Rather than treating each component (cell type, interaction, or patient image) in isolation, population-level statistical ecology models study the joint spatial arrangement of all cells at once for the entire patient cohort. These models capture statistically significant patterns of co-location, avoidance, interaction, or spatial clustering that arise from complex intercellular dynamics and differentiate across patients based on covariates. These transparent, probabilistic models interpretably summarize how spatial structure changes across patients, quantify uncertainty, and enable rigorous comparisons across different tumor subtypes or treatment groups. In this way, they move beyond black-box pattern detection to uncover generalizable biological signals, distinguishing disease-driven remodeling of tissue architecture from random individual variability.\r\n\r\nWe introduce bipps (Bayesian Inference of Point Patterns in Space), our first step toward a comprehensive statistical ecology pipeline for TME analysis. bipps is an open source R package that implements and generalizes advanced statistical ecology models for multivariate spatial data. \r\n\r\nAbout the DCMB Tools & Technology Seminar Series\r\n\r\nThe DCMB Tools and Technology Seminar Series is held in Palmer Commons, Room 2036, each Thursday at 12pm EST.

These systems, however, lack the periodic fluctuations, or biorhythms, in the cellular microenvironment that effectively integrate \u201ctime\u201d into these culture platforms by providing physiological inputs necessary for cellular synchronization and circadian rhythms. Given the central role that circadian rhythms play in health and disease, this absence is puzzling. For example, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, osteoarthritis, and asthma, are just a few diseases with known circadian rhythm effects. Moreover, more than half of the top 100 selling drugs target the product of a circadian gene, and multiple clinical trials have retrospectively shown the impact of time-of-day dosing on improved outcomes and increased patient lifespan. The underlying reason conventional systems largely do not integrate temporal dynamics in vitro is because they either require the use of poorly scalable external flow control systems or manual fluid exchanges. In this talk, I will discuss my group\u2019s research focusing on the development of microfluidic technologies to address the challenges of embedding time within scalable in vitro systems using microfluidic circuits. Additionally, I will describe microfluidic systems we have developed for the scalable production of microgels for use in packed bed reactors that allow us to perform rhythmic fluidic exchanges in 3D tissue cultures.", "occurrence_notes":"https:\/\/umich.zoom.us\/j\/98302088175", "guid":"140721-21887529@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/140721", "building_id":"1000406", "building_name":"Lurie Biomedical Engineering (formerly ATL)", "building_official_id":1000406, "campus_maps_id":"7", "campus_maps_link_path":"lurie-ann-and-robert-h-biomedical-engineering-bld", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/lurie-ann-and-robert-h-biomedical-engineering-bld", "room":"1130", "location_name":"Lurie Biomedical Engineering (formerly ATL)", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Basic Science"], "website":"http:\/\/bme.umich.edu", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"http:\/\/bme.umich.edu", "title":null } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Biomedical Engineering", "group_id":"1143", "website":"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/profile.php?id=100094127215673" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140721_original-1.jpg", "image_description":"A speaker talking to a group of students in a classroom.", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140721_original-1.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140721_original-1.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140721_original-1.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140721_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140721_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140721_original-1.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140721_original-1.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140721_original-1.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140721_original-1.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140721_original-1.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140721_original-1.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140721_original-1.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140721_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140721_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140721_original-1.jpg" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/140721\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21887529 } , { "id":"139238-21885177", "datetime_modified":"20251017T144859", "datetime_start":"20251023T190000", "datetime_end":"20251023T213000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-10-23", "date_end":"2025-10-23", "time_start":"19:00:00", "time_end":"21:30:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Cracking the Code: Phil Sharp and the Biotech Revolution", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Cracking the Code: Phil Sharp and the Biotech Revolution: Film Screening and Panel Discussion", "event_subtitle":"Film Screening and Panel Discussion", "event_type":"Film Screening", "event_type_id":"11", "description":"Thursday, October 23 at 7:00 PM\r\nMichigan Theater - Screening Room\r\n603 E Liberty St\r\nAnn Arbor, MI 48104. \r\n\r\nFilm | Documentary | NR | 1h 36m | 2025\r\n\r\nCracking the Code, narrated by Mark Ruffalo, is an inspiring story of vision, perseverance, and the power of science to change the world.

To untangle full-length cell-type specific brain isoforms, we developed single-cell long-read technology for many thousands of cells (from previous approaches for 10-100 cells) in fresh tissues (ScISOr-Seq; Gupta..Tilgner, 20181) and in frozen tissues (SnISOr-Seq; Hardwick..Tilgner, 20222). These approaches revealed the rules of combination of TSSs, alternative exons and poly(A) sites and their cell-type specificity. Autism-associated exons (as previously described) but also FTD-associated exons are highly variably-used across cell types2. For spatial resolution, we developed spatially-barcoded isoform sequencing with 60um (Joglekar..Tilgner, 20213), 10um (Foord..Tilgner, 20254) and 220nm (Michielsen..Tilgner, biorxiv5) spots, showing that often isoform switches correlate with precise boundaries of brain structures (e.g., choroid plexus to hippocampus). However, genes including Snap25, use a gradient of exon inclusion through the brain3. Choroid plexus epithelial cells show a dramatically distinct isoform profile, which originates most strongly from TSS usage3. During human puberty, layer4-excitatory splicing is more regulated than in other cortical layers \u2013 probably influenced by retroviral sequences4. More generally, we can now detect isoform-expression variability that does not correspond to known brain structures5.\r\n\r\n\r\nFor the NIH Brain Initiative, we have mapped single-cell isoforms across development, brain regions and species. Neurotransmitter release and reuptake as well as synapse turnover genes harbor variability in the same cell type across anatomical regions but the same cell type traced across development shows more isoform variability than across adult anatomical regions. Moreover, most cell-type-specific exons in adult mouse hippocampus behave similarly in human hippocampi. However, human brains have evolved additional cell-type specificity in splicing (Joglekar..Tilgner, 20246). Additionally, the concurrent measurement of chromatin and splicing patterns in post-mortem human brain shows broadly-speaking convergent dysregulation of both modalities in similar cell types in Alzheimer\u2019s disease but more divergence between both modalities in evolution (Hu..Tilgner, 20257). Finally, we have advanced our understanding of error sources of PacBio and ONT (Mikheenko..Tilgner, 20228) and implemented highly accurate long-read software (Prjibelski..Tilgner, 20239).",

largely mysterious and challenging to study. In this talk, I will describe our efforts to harness human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) and bioengineering approaches to create controllable models of human peri-gastrulation development and early organogenesis. These models recapitulate key in vivo developmental landmarks, including amniotic cavity formation, amniotic ectoderm-epiblast patterning, primordial germ cell specification, embryonic germ layer organization, yolk sac formation, and primitive hematopoiesis. Our current work focuses on using these controllable models as experimental platforms to dissect the molecular and genetic mechanisms underlying cell fate decisions, tissue patterning, and self-organization during human peri-gastrulation.\r\n\r\nI will also discuss our application of bioengineering tools and hPSCs to model critical aspects of early human neural development, including neural patterning in both brain and spinal cord regions, along rostrocaudal and dorsoventral axes. Ongoing projects further aim to model key features of human heart and gut tube development, as well as somitogenesis. Together, these efforts have established a suite of bioengineered human embryo and organ models with in vivo-like spatiotemporal cell differentiation and organization, providing powerful platforms for studying human development, physiology, and disease.\r\n\r\nShort Bio\r\n\r\nJianping Fu, PhD is a professor of Engineering and Cell and Developmental Biology at the University of Michigan. His research integrates micro\/nanoengineering, single-cell technologies, and synthetic biology tools with mechanobiology, stem cell biology, and developmental biology to advance our understanding of human development, function and disease.

For much of the global population, medical and their analytical tools remain far less advanced than the technologies used in daily life. To bridge this gap between everyday devices and medical innovation, my research centers on three major themes: First, I will present the development of a low-cost, point-of-care automated diagnostic platform that enables multiplexed biochemical testing with an order-of-magnitude reduction in cost compared to currently available commercial platforms. Second, I will discuss machine learning-enhanced biosensing for cancer diagnostics, where our recent work demonstrates thousand-fold precision improvements through full-spectrum and multi-resonance modeling compared to conventional one-dimensional fittings. Finally, I will introduce hybrid dynamic optogenetic\u2013electrophysiology neural interfaces, combining metasurface-based beam steering with minimally invasive carbon-fiber arrays for adaptive and chronic closed-loop neuromodulation.", "occurrence_notes":"https:\/\/umich.zoom.us\/j\/98302088175", "guid":"140768-21887593@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/140768",

Hunt Memorial Lecture\r\n\r\nMeasuring the Health of the Brain: From Global Networks to Local Biomarkers\r\nAbstract:\r\nHow do we measure the health of the brain? Unlike blood pressure or cholesterol, there is no single number that captures brain function. We are developing the Brain Entropy Index (BEI), a new measure that integrates thermodynamics, statistical modeling, and brain imaging to provide a global indicator of brain health. Using data from modalities such as EEG, fMRI, and MEG, the BEI can reliably separate healthy from diseased brains, offering promise as a universal screening tool.\r\n\r\nYet, just as a blood test might flag \u201cillness\u201d without specifying the disease, a global index cannot by itself identify the underlying condition. Neurological disorders are defined by distinct local network dynamics, and it is these dynamics that can give rise to robust biomarkers. One example is EpiScalp, a computational tool we developed to model local brain networks from scalp EEG. EpiScalp can differentiate true epilepsy from seizure-mimicking disorders and from healthy brains, providing a disorder-specific biomarker.\r\n\r\nTogether, these approaches demonstrate a two-tiered framework: global measures can screen for health versus disease, while local network dynamics serve as biomarkers that refine diagnosis and define specific conditions. More broadly, this talk will illustrate how concepts from systems & control theory, physics, and data science can converge to open new frontiers in neuroscience and medicine.\r\n \r\nBio:\r\nSridevi Sarma received a B.S. in Electrical Engineering from Cornell University, and an M.S. and Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).

Yet real-world datasets often encode historical bias, and models trained on them can reproduce or amplify inequities. Pre-processing via fair synthetic data is a promising: if we can generate data that mitigates bias at the source while preserving signal, downstream models can be both fair and useful. This talk introduces FDA (Fair synthetic data via Data Augmentation), a statistically principled framework that makes the fairness\u2013faithfulness trade-off explicit and controllable. FDA jointly models a fair submodel and a faithful submodel, coupled by a single parameter $\\alpha \\in [0,1]$ that quantifies the fraction of bias removed. We prove clear operating points: $\\alpha=0$ yields maximal fairness (with larger deviation from the original distribution), $\\alpha=1$ recovers the original data in probability (hence in distribution), and intermediate $\\alpha$ values guarantee calibrated compromises with interpretable bounds. Practically, FDA samples directly from simple predictive distributions, avoiding heavy black-box training. We further provide theory connecting FDA\u2019s $\\alpha$ to fairness of downstream models. Together, these results deliver a transparent, efficient, and deployable path to generating fair synthetic data without sacrificing essential statistical structure.\r\n\r\nDr. Bei Jiang is an Associate Professor in the Department of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences at the University of Alberta, a Fellow of the Alberta Machine Intelligence Institute (Amii), and a Canada CIFAR AI Chair.

Hallmarks of this process include inflammation, oxidative stress, endothelial dysfunction, and aortic stiffening, all of which compromise the ability of large arteries to regulate blood flow and pressure, increasing susceptibility to disease. Our research program seeks to uncover the molecular mechanisms that drive these functional shifts and to determine how environmental stressors accelerate vascular aging. In this seminar, I will first highlight recent findings from our work mapping the trajectory of aortic aging in mice. Using single-cell transcriptomics and mechanical testing, we identified immune cell accumulation, extracellular matrix remodeling, and altered Piezo-1 signaling as key processes that increase aortic stiffness with age. I will then discuss how chronic exposure to wildfire smoke, an increasingly common environmental hazard, can recapitulate age-associated vascular maladaptation. Through a mouse model scaled to the exposure of wildland firefighters, we demonstrated that repeated inhalation of Douglas Fir smoke induces inflammation, oxidative and nitrosative stress, endothelial dysfunction, and fibrotic remodeling of the aortic wall, leading to vascular stiffening and elevated blood pressure. Collectively, these studies frame vascular aging as a unifying lens through which to understand the cardiovascular consequences of environmental exposures and highlight pathways that may guide future prevention and intervention strategies.", "occurrence_notes":"https:\/\/umich.zoom.us\/j\/98302088175", "guid":"141406-21888772@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/141406", "building_id":"1000406", "building_name":"Lurie Biomedical Engineering (formerly ATL)", "building_official_id":1000406, "campus_maps_id":"7", "campus_maps_link_path":"lurie-ann-and-robert-h-biomedical-engineering-bld", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/lurie-ann-and-robert-h-biomedical-engineering-bld", "room":"1130", "location_name":"Lurie Biomedical Engineering (formerly ATL)", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Basic Science"], "website":"http:\/\/bme.umich.edu", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"http:\/\/bme.umich.edu", "title":null } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Biomedical Engineering", "group_id":"1143", "website":"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/profile.php?id=100094127215673" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141406_original-1.jpg", "image_description":"A speaker talking to a group of students in a classroom.", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141406_original-1.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141406_original-1.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141406_original-1.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141406_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141406_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141406_original-1.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141406_original-1.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141406_original-1.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141406_original-1.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141406_original-1.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141406_original-1.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141406_original-1.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141406_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141406_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141406_original-1.jpg" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/141406\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21888772 } , { "id":"140733-21887544", "datetime_modified":"20251015T122149", "datetime_start":"20251115T093000", "datetime_end":"20251115T140000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-11-15", "date_end":"2025-11-15", "time_start":"09:30:00", "time_end":"14:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Bioinformatics Program Virtual Open House", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Bioinformatics Program Virtual Open House: This Virtual Open House is free and open to all undergraduate students from U-M and other institutions.", "event_subtitle":"This Virtual Open House is free and open to all undergraduate students from U-M and other institutions.", "event_type":"Workshop \/ Seminar", "event_type_id":"21", "description":"Are you curious about the intersection of computing and biology?

This talk explores our work building a voice-driven, edge-deployed LLM system for use in the emergency department. With no internet connection, low-latency inference, and a fully local privacy-preserving design, our system runs entirely offline. It adapts dynamically to both the patient and the physician's specialty, enabling tailored language understanding in fast-moving clinical contexts. We'll unpack key design choices, challenges of real-time interaction, and what it takes to make language models clinically useful when seconds matter.\r\n\r\nAbout The Tools & Technology Seminar Series\r\n\r\nThe DCMB Tools and Technology Seminar Series is held in Palmer Commons, Room 2036, each Thursday at 12pm EST. Each seminar highlights a computational tool, technology, or methodology that is under development or in current use and is of special interest to DCMB and University researchers.

However, there remain many challenging targets\u2014such as flat or featureless intracellular surfaces\u2014that are often inaccessible to these modalities. This is where peptides come in. Peptides are particularly exciting because they can be synthesized via solid-phase methods, penetrate cells, and bind to flat protein interfaces that are otherwise undruggable. Despite this promise, designing effective peptides has remained a significant challenge. In our lab, we\u2019re developing new computational and experimental tools to overcome these limitations. Today, I\u2019ll be talking about CyclicCEA and CyclicMPNN, two current methods for rapid generation of Gly or Ala cycles. If time permits, I will also talk about their use as a binder design.", "occurrence_notes":"https:\/\/umich.zoom.us\/j\/98302088175", "guid":"141865-21889545@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/141865", "building_id":"1000406", "building_name":"Lurie Biomedical Engineering (formerly ATL)", "building_official_id":1000406, "campus_maps_id":"7", "campus_maps_link_path":"lurie-ann-and-robert-h-biomedical-engineering-bld", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/lurie-ann-and-robert-h-biomedical-engineering-bld", "room":"1130", "location_name":"Lurie Biomedical Engineering (formerly ATL)", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Basic Science"], "website":"http:\/\/bme.umich.edu", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"http:\/\/bme.umich.edu", "title":null } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Biomedical Engineering", "group_id":"1143", "website":"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/profile.php?id=100094127215673" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141865_original-1.jpg", "image_description":"A speaker talking to a group of students in a classroom.", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141865_original-1.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141865_original-1.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141865_original-1.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141865_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141865_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141865_original-1.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141865_original-1.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141865_original-1.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141865_original-1.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141865_original-1.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141865_original-1.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141865_original-1.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141865_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141865_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141865_original-1.jpg" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/141865\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21889545 } , { "id":"138249-21882672", "datetime_modified":"20251016T083545", "datetime_start":"20251206T103000", "datetime_end":"20251206T113000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-12-06", "date_end":"2025-12-06", "time_start":"10:30:00", "time_end":"11:30:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Saturday Morning Physics | 30 Years of SMP!

This is crucial as medical devices and programming not designed for the context of use are typically neither sustained nor disseminated. Examples of her work include devices for cervical cancer screening to diagnosing postpartum hemorrhage as well as simulation-based education to prevent cesarean deliveries to conducting less invasive gynecology surgery. She also focuses efforts on capacity building for women in engineering and clinical research with efforts in Ghana, Rwanda, and the USA. She has been recognized for her efforts with a University of Michigan Outstanding International Collaboration Award and as a STAT Wunderkind.

Past studies suggested that optimizing gene expression by positive selection on cis-regulatory mutations is relatively easy because the corresponding adaptive landscapes are quite smooth. To what extent gene expression can be optimized via trans-regulatory mutations is, however, unknown. Analyzing the transcriptomes and proteomes of 16 yeast strains carrying all combinations of four auxotrophic mutations, we respectively construct 5,923 and 446 adaptive landscapes of mRNA and protein expressions where neighboring genotypes differ by a trans-regulatory mutation. We find that mRNA expression is less optimizable by trans-regulatory mutations than by cis-regulatory mutations due to a lower fraction of open adaptive paths via trans- than cis-changes, which may partially explain why trans-regulatory changes are rarer than cis-regulatory changes in gene expression evolution. Interestingly, the adaptive landscapes of protein expressions are substantially less rugged and thereby more navigable than those of mRNA expressions due to post-transcriptional buffering effects, suggesting that, for protein-coding genes, the evolvability of gene expression is even higher than the current estimate from adaptive landscapes of mRNA expressions. This high evolvability may have contributed to the prominence of gene expression changes as a mechanism of evolutionary adaptation.\r\n\r\n\r\nAbout the DCMB Tools & Technology Seminar Series\r\n\r\nThe DCMB Tools and Technology Seminar Series is held in Medical Science Building 1 (MS1), Room 4B700, each Thursday at 12pm EST.

Huggins, Ph.D.", "event_type":"Workshop \/ Seminar", "event_type_id":"21", "description":"Implementing EEG-Based Brain-Computer Interface Access to Commercial Speech Generating Devices\r\nAbstract:\r\nBrain-computer interfaces (BCIs) have long been considered a promising option for people with complex communication needs. However, most BCIs remain in the laboratory and the few BCIs on the market are not integrated into the clinically useful augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) devices available from long-established companies. With small business funding from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders, Dr. Jane Huggins from the University of Michigan and Dr. Katya Hill from Gannon University have been working closely with an AAC device manufacturer to create wearable BCI access to an existing product line of speech generating devices. These efforts have produced a BCI add-on accessory that can access the language features of the speech generating devices. Laboratory and in-home testing focused on realistic communication tasks shows the effectiveness of the BCI for real-world communication and challenges and areas for future improvements. \r\nBio:\r\nDr. Huggins has been active in brain-computer interface (BCI) research since 1994. Her dissertation research on electrocorticogram (ECoG) for BCI access to assistive technology resulted in the founding of the University of Michigan Direct Brain Interface Laboratory, which she has led since 2007. Dr. Huggins trained in computer engineering and biomedical engineering at Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Michigan. She also completed a clinical rehabilitation engineering internship at the University of Michigan, giving her a unique combination of skills for the development of BCI access to assistive technology and augmentative and alternative communication. Her current focus is on making electroencephalogram (EEG)-based BCIs interfaces practical for people who need them. Ongoing research directions include interfacing BCIs to commercially available assistive technologies, improving BCI response time and no-control performance, identifying features and support necessary for successful independent BCI use by people with physical impairments, identifying the design preferences and priorities of potential BCI users, BCI applications in cognitive testing, and the identification and accommodation of user-specific characteristics that affect BCI function. She is particularly interested in the often ignored topic of how BCIs can remain available for communication but unobtrusive during periods when the user is not actively trying to make selections. Dr. Huggins was a founding member of the board of directors of the Brain-Computer Interface Society and now serves on the BCI Society's Communications Committee. Outside the lab, Dr. Huggins enjoys knitting, genealogy, birdwatching, cooking for her husband, and being Mom to her college-age children.", "occurrence_notes":"https:\/\/umich.zoom.us\/j\/94337625486", "guid":"143584-21893424@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/143584", "building_id":"1000406", "building_name":"Lurie Biomedical Engineering (formerly ATL)", "building_official_id":1000406, "campus_maps_id":"7", "campus_maps_link_path":"lurie-ann-and-robert-h-biomedical-engineering-bld", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/lurie-ann-and-robert-h-biomedical-engineering-bld", "room":"1130", "location_name":"Lurie Biomedical Engineering (formerly ATL)", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Basic Science"], "website":"http:\/\/bme.umich.edu", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"http:\/\/bme.umich.edu", "title":null } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Biomedical Engineering", "group_id":"1143", "website":"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/profile.php?id=100094127215673" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143584_original-1.jpg", "image_description":"A speaker talking to a group of students in a classroom.", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143584_original-1.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143584_original-1.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143584_original-1.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143584_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143584_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143584_original-1.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143584_original-1.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143584_original-1.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143584_original-1.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143584_original-1.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143584_original-1.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143584_original-1.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143584_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143584_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143584_original-1.jpg" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/143584\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21893424 } , { "id":"117733-21891124", "datetime_modified":"20251210T113622", "datetime_start":"20260118T230000", "datetime_end":"20260118T235900", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-01-18", "date_end":"2026-01-18", "time_start":"23:00:00", "time_end":"23:59:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"APPLICATION DEADLINE EXTENDED TO JANUARY 18TH: Up to $30,000 Grant For Student Sustainability Projects", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"APPLICATION DEADLINE EXTENDED TO JANUARY 18TH: Up to $30,000 Grant For Student Sustainability Projects: Planet Blue Student Innovation Fund and The Social and Environmental Sustainability grant.", "event_subtitle":"Planet Blue Student Innovation Fund and The Social and Environmental Sustainability grant.", "event_type":"Meeting", "event_type_id":"14", "description":"The Student Sustainability Coalition is awarding up to $30,000 for student driven projects that enhance sustainability or in some instances social sustainability for the University of Michigan's campus community.

Imagine ultrasound delivered from outside the body is used to generate bubbles and destroy the target tumor, without incision or injury. Pre-clinical studies have shown that ultrasound image-guided histotripsy can non-invasively and mechanically disrupt the target tumor into acellular debris while preserving large normal vessels, nerves, and bile ducts. Histotripsy tumor acellular debris is absorbed by the body, resulting in tumor regression and increased survival benefit. Histotripsy induces significant innate and adaptive immune response and abscopal effect (shrinkage of off-target tumors) in murine tumor models. Multi-center clinical trials confirm that histotripsy produces tumor regression and provides evidence of abscopal effect in patients with primary and metastatic liver tumors. In October 2023, the Edison histotripsy platform (HistoSonics) was approved by FDA for non-invasive treatment of liver tumors. The Edison system is based on the technology licensed from Dr. Xu\u2019s lab and manufactured by HistoSonics, a company co-founded by Dr. Xu. To Date, histotripsy has been used to treat 3000 patients with liver tumors in 70+ hospitals. There are ongoing clinical trials in the U.S. and Europe on histotripsy treatment of renal tumors and pancreatic tumors. Dr. Xu will talk about the mechanism and instrumentation of histotripsy, the latest pre-clinical and clinical progress, and her journal to bring this technology from bench to bedside. \r\nBio:\r\nDr. Zhen Xu is the Li Ka Shing Endowed Professor of Biomedical Engineering, and Professor of Radiology and Neurosurgery at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI. Her research focuses on ultrasound therapy and imaging. She is a pioneer and world leader of histotripsy. She has developed histotripsy for cancer, neurological, and cardiovascular applications. Her work has led to the FDA approval of histotripsy treatment of liver tumors. She has been elected as Fellow of National Academy of Inventors (NAI), American Institute of Medicine and Bioengineering (AIMBE), and IEEE. She received the IEEE Ultrasonics, Ferroelectrics, and Frequency Control (UFFC) Outstanding Paper Award in 2006, Frederic Lizzi Award from the International Society of Therapeutic Ultrasound (ISTU) in 2015, Lockhart Memorial Prize for Cancer Research in 2020, and IEEE Carl Hellmuth Hertz Ultrasonics Award in 2024. She has published 140 peer-reviewed journal papers and has been awarded $50+ millions of external grant funding. She has 36 issued US and international patents. She is a principal investigator of grants funded by NIH, Office of Navy Research, American Cancer Association, and Focused Ultrasound Foundation. She is the co-founder of HistoSonics. HistoSonics is valued at $3 billions through a recent private acquisition.", "occurrence_notes":"https:\/\/umich.zoom.us\/j\/94337625486", "guid":"143705-21893683@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/143705", "building_id":"1000406", "building_name":"Lurie Biomedical Engineering (formerly ATL)", "building_official_id":1000406, "campus_maps_id":"7", "campus_maps_link_path":"lurie-ann-and-robert-h-biomedical-engineering-bld", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/lurie-ann-and-robert-h-biomedical-engineering-bld", "room":"1130", "location_name":"Lurie Biomedical Engineering (formerly ATL)", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Basic Science"], "website":"http:\/\/bme.umich.edu", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"http:\/\/bme.umich.edu", "title":null } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Biomedical Engineering", "group_id":"1143", "website":"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/profile.php?id=100094127215673" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143705_original-1.jpg", "image_description":"A speaker talking to a group of students in a classroom.", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143705_original-1.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143705_original-1.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143705_original-1.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143705_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143705_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143705_original-1.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143705_original-1.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143705_original-1.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143705_original-1.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143705_original-1.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143705_original-1.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143705_original-1.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143705_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143705_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143705_original-1.jpg" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/143705\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21893683 } , { "id":"144220-21894884", "datetime_modified":"20260120T160528", "datetime_start":"20260123T150000", "datetime_end":"20260123T160000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-01-23", "date_end":"2026-01-23", "time_start":"15:00:00", "time_end":"16:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Thriving in STEM | Pre-Health Pop-Up Advising", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Thriving in STEM | Pre-Health Pop-Up Advising: LSA Newnan Pre-Health Advisors", "event_subtitle":"LSA Newnan Pre-Health Advisors", "event_type":"Workshop \/ Seminar", "event_type_id":"21", "description":"LSA Newnan Pre-Health Advising comes to YOU!

"description":"Abstract\r\nRNA sequencing has been widely applied for gene isoform quantification, but limitations exist in quantifying isoforms of complex genes accurately, especially for short reads. Here we identify genes that are difficult to quantify accurately with short reads and illustrate the information benefit of using long reads to quantify these regions. We present miniQuant, which ranks genes with quantification errors caused by the ambiguity of read alignments and integrates the complementary strengths of long reads and short reads with optimal combination in a gene- and data-specific manner to achieve more accurate quantification. These results are supported by rigorous mathematical proofs, validated with a wide range of simulation data, experimental validations and more than 17,000 public datasets from GTEx, TCGA and ENCODE consortia. We demonstrate miniQuant can uncover isoform switches during the differentiation of human embryonic stem cells to pharyngeal endoderm and primordial germ cell-like cells.\r\n\r\nAbout the DCMB Tools & Technology Seminar Series\r\n\r\nThe DCMB Tools and Technology Seminar Series is held in Medical Science Building 1 (MS1), Room 4B700, each Thursday at 12pm EST.

In this talk I will describe neural circuit mechanisms of rapid spatial learning and of adapting to new information to guide navigation. Identifying crucial locations in a new environment depends on neural computations that rapidly represent locations and connect location information to key outcomes like food, however the mechanisms to trigger these computations at behaviorally relevant locations is not well understood. We find that inhibitory interneurons in hippocampal CA3 play a causal role in identifying and exploiting new food locations. Inhibitory interneurons in CA3 drastically reduce firing on approach to and in goal locations. Sparse optogenetic stimulation to prevent goal-related decreases in interneuron firing impaired learning of goal locations and disrupted neural representations of goal locations. These results reveal that goal-selective decreases in inhibitory activity enable learning important locations. Navigation also requires rapidly updating choices in the face of new information. In hippocampus and prefrontal cortex, neural activity representing future goals is theorized to support navigation planning. Yet how prospective goal representations incorporate new, pivotal information is unknown. Using virtual reality, we precisely introduced new crucial information during navigation and recorded neural activity as mice flexibly adapted their planned destinations. We found that new information triggered increased prospective representations and reorganization to rapidly shift to the new choice. This prospective code updating depended on the degree of behavioral adaptation needed. These studies reveal new mechanisms by which animals rapidly learn crucial new locations and adapt to new information that requires updating navigation plans.\r\n\r\nBio:\r\nDr. Annabelle Singer is the McCamish Foundation Early Career Professor in the Coulter Department of Biomedical Engineering at Georgia Tech and Emory University. Her research seeks to understand how neural activity produces memories and regulates brain immune function, with the goal of developing new therapies for brain disease. Dr. Singer\u2019s work has shown that coordinated electrical activity across hippocampal neurons encodes memories and fails in models of Alzheimer\u2019s disease. She discovered that driving specific patterns of neural activity, such as gamma oscillations, reduces Alzheimer\u2019s pathology and alters brain immune function. Using non-invasive sensory stimulation, she is translating these discoveries from rodents to humans to pioneer radically new treatments for disease.\r\n\r\nDr. Singer is a Packard Fellow, Kavli Fellow, and recipient of the National Academy of Engineering\u2019s Gilbreth Lectureship, the Society for Neuroscience\u2019s Janett Rosenberg Trubatch Career Development Award, and the American Neurological Association\u2019s Derek Denny-Brown Young Neurological Scholar Award. Her discoveries have inspired more than 20 clinical trials of brain stimulation across multiple diseases and have been featured on PBS, Nature News, Quanta Magazine, The New York Times, Radiolab, and multiple documentaries. Dr. Singer trained as a postdoctoral fellow in Ed Boyden\u2019s Synthetic Neurobiology Group at MIT and earned her Ph.D. in Neuroscience at UCSF.", "occurrence_notes":"https:\/\/umich.zoom.us\/j\/94337625486", "guid":"143328-21892907@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/143328", "building_id":"1000406", "building_name":"Lurie Biomedical Engineering (formerly ATL)", "building_official_id":1000406, "campus_maps_id":"7", "campus_maps_link_path":"lurie-ann-and-robert-h-biomedical-engineering-bld", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/lurie-ann-and-robert-h-biomedical-engineering-bld", "room":"1130", "location_name":"Lurie Biomedical Engineering (formerly ATL)", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Basic Science"], "website":"http:\/\/bme.umich.edu", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"http:\/\/bme.umich.edu", "title":null } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Biomedical Engineering", "group_id":"1143", "website":"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/profile.php?id=100094127215673" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143328_original-1.jpg", "image_description":"A speaker talking to a group of students in a classroom.", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143328_original-1.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143328_original-1.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143328_original-1.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143328_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143328_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143328_original-1.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143328_original-1.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143328_original-1.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143328_original-1.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143328_original-1.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143328_original-1.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143328_original-1.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143328_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143328_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143328_original-1.jpg" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/143328\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21892907 } , { "id":"144221-21894885", "datetime_modified":"20260120T163354", "datetime_start":"20260130T130000", "datetime_end":"20260130T150000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-01-30", "date_end":"2026-01-30", "time_start":"13:00:00", "time_end":"15:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Thriving in STEM | Opportunity Hub Pop-Up Coaching", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Thriving in STEM | Opportunity Hub Pop-Up Coaching: LSA Opportunity Hub Coaches", "event_subtitle":"LSA Opportunity Hub Coaches", "event_type":"Workshop \/ Seminar", "event_type_id":"21", "description":"LSA Opportunity Hub Pop-Up Coaching is ideal when you\u2019re short on time and need to stop by for immediate support.

immune components. Single-cell and spatial expression profiling have emerged as transformative tools to dissect this complexity and help predict cellular and system-level behaviors. Yet, it remains the case that these insights have not engendered a more hopeful outlook, such as diagnostic methods and therapeutic agents. This seminar will focus on two defining features of glioblastoma: inflammation and invasion. By examining these phenomena through the lens of cellular states and cell-cell interactions, we aim to highlight avenues for intervention. Additional attention will be paid to technical aspects: computational and experimental integration to profile and perturb the glioblastoma ecosystem in patients and model systems.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"143686-21893645@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/143686", "building_id":"1000190", "building_name":"Medical Science Unit I", "building_official_id":1000190, "campus_maps_id":"104", "campus_maps_link_path":"medical-science-unit-i", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/medical-science-unit-i", "room":"4B700", "location_name":"Medical Science Unit I", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Basic Science"], "website":"https:\/\/umich.zoom.us\/j\/93929606089?pwd=SHh6R1FOQm8xMThRemdxTEFMWWpVdz09", "links":[ { "type":"livestream", "url":"https:\/\/umich.zoom.us\/j\/93929606089?pwd=SHh6R1FOQm8xMThRemdxTEFMWWpVdz09", "title":"ZOOM Livestream" }, { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/medschool.umich.edu\/events\/ccmb-seminar-series\/ccmb-seminar-toshiro-hara-phd\/2026-02-04", "title":"Event Webpage" } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"DCMB Seminar Series", "group_id":"3754", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Department of Computational Medicine and Bioinformatics DCMB", "group_id":"5384", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143686_original-1.jpg", "image_description":"Toshiro Hara, PhD", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143686_original-1.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143686_original-1.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143686_original-1.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143686_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143686_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143686_original-1.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143686_original-1.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143686_original-1.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143686_original-1.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143686_original-1.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143686_original-1.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143686_original-1.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143686_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143686_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143686_original-1.jpg" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/143686\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21893645 } , { "id":"143258-21892563", "datetime_modified":"20260116T173434", "datetime_start":"20260205T120000", "datetime_end":"20260205T130000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-02-05", "date_end":"2026-02-05", "time_start":"12:00:00", "time_end":"13:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"DCMB Tools and Technology Seminar by Patrick Kon", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"DCMB Tools and Technology Seminar by Patrick Kon: \u201cExperiments-as-Code: Building, Training, and Evaluating AI Agents for Research Experiments\u201d", "event_subtitle":"\u201cExperiments-as-Code: Building, Training, and Evaluating AI Agents for Research Experiments\u201d", "event_type":"Workshop \/ Seminar", "event_type_id":"21", "description":"About the DCMB Tools & Technology Seminar Series\r\n\r\nThe DCMB Tools and Technology Seminar Series is held in Medical Science Building 1 (MS1), Room 4B700, each Thursday at 12pm EST.

The Center\u2019s International Methods team focuses on designing, implementing, monitoring, and improving these surveys throughout the year. In this talk, we present two research projects from 2025 in Australia and Sweden.\r\n\r\nMany surveys around the world, across modes and methods, have tended to show a slight left-leaning political bias. Weighting to past vote or party affiliation is a common solution, but these corrections alone may create excessive variance inflation. We faced this problem in our surveys fielded on the mixed-mode Life in Australia probability panel, administered by the Australian National University\u2019s Social Research Centre. To combat this bias, we tested a \u201cvoting-adjusted\u201d sampling approach recommended by our partners at SRC, in parallel with our previous standard stratified sampling design. Taking advantage of panel information and recent Australian elections, the new method incorporates self-reported 2022 vote into individual weights which are used as a measure of size for PPS sampling. After reviewing the technical details behind this approach, we\u2019ll discuss our findings on its impact on variance and substantive estimates compared to the standard design.\r\n\r\nPush-to-web (P2W) designs are gaining traction in Europe as an alternative to costly \u2013 and methodologically challenged \u2013 interviewer-administered approaches. For instance, the European Social Survey announced that by 2027 online and paper self-administered surveys will be their primary means of data collection replacing their traditional face-to-face approach. To better understand this mode and its potential for future waves of GAP, we recently piloted an ABS-style, sequential P2W survey in Sweden to compare with our traditional dual-frame phone design (DFRDD). Our presentation will compare P2W and DFRDD sample outcomes in terms of data quality (such as response rates, response differentiation, survey engagement, and open-ended answer quality), representativeness (versus demographic parameters for gender, education, age and geography) and attitudinal estimates (considering the viability of long-term data trends if mode transitioned in Sweden). The P2W survey included an unconditional incentive experiment as well as a paper questionnaire mailing, allowing us to present findings regarding the value of these design elements. This section of the talk concludes with key takeaways and recommendations for future mode-transition trials. \r\n\r\nSofi Sinozich is a research methodologist in international methods at Pew Research Center.

literature. The excessive zeros and compositionality of metagenomics data are two main challenges for differential abundance analysis. We propose a novel method called \u201canalysis of differential abundance by pooling Tobit models\u201d (ADAPT) to overcome these two challenges. ADAPT uniquely treats zero counts as left-censored observations to facilitate computation and enhance interpretation. ADAPT also encompasses a theoretically justified way of selecting non-differentially abundant microbiome taxa as a reference for hypothesis testing. We generate synthetic data using independent simulation frameworks to show that ADAPT has more consistent false discovery rate control and higher statistical power than competitors. We use ADAPT to analyze 16S rRNA sequencing of saliva samples and shotgun metagenomics sequencing of plaque samples collected from infants in the COHRA2 study. The results provide novel insights into the association between the oral microbiome and early childhood dental caries.\r\n\r\nAbout the DCMB Tools & Technology Seminar Series\r\n\r\nThe DCMB Tools and Technology Seminar Series is held in Medical Science Building 1 (MS1), Room 4B700, each Thursday at 12pm EST.

This seminar will present recent technological advances in ultrasound to improve both imaging performance and therapeutic capability.\n\nThe first part of the seminar will introduce transcranial histotripsy as a non-invasive brain therapy. Histotripsy is a non-thermal, non-ionizing ultrasound therapy that mechanically fractionates target tissue through acoustic cavitation generated by short, high-intensity ultrasound pulses. Transcranial histotripsy is particularly challenging because the intact human skull introduces severe attenuation and phase aberration. This seminar will discuss the specialized instrumentation for transcranial histotripsy, methods to ensure precise targeting and real-time monitoring (including skull aberration correction and cavitation imaging), and feasibility and safety evaluation of transcranial histotripsy in preclinical studies.\n\nThe second half of the seminar will focus on ultrafast ultrasound imaging using large-aperture arrays. By combining ultrafast acquisition techniques with parallel computing, this approach enables high-resolution volumetric imaging over a large field of view at video-rate frame rates. Two clinically relevant applications will be presented: panoramic spine imaging for diagnosis and interventional guidance, and breast ultrasound tomography for early cancer screening. Finally, we will discuss remaining technical challenges for clinical translation and highlight how advances in ultrafast imaging can be integrated with histotripsy to enable safer, more precise therapies.\n\nBio:\nDr. Ning Lu is a Senior Ultrasound Engineer at United Imaging Healthcare North America in Bellevue, Washington. She completed her postdoctoral training in the Department of Radiology at Stanford University under the mentorship of Prof. Katherine W. Ferrara, where she developed high-resolution 3D ultrasound imaging techniques for diagnostic and interventional guidance. Dr. Lu received her Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering and Scientific Computing (joint degree) from the University of Michigan in 2023, working with Prof. Zhen Xu on MR-guided transcranial histotripsy for non-invasive brain therapy. Her research interests include biomedical ultrasound, medical instrumentation, parallel computing, and AI-driven imaging science. Her long-term career goal is to develop high-precision, affordable, personalized ultrasound solutions for therapy, diagnosis, and health monitoring.",

Although Atwood\u2019s narrative is fiction, the realities of forced reproduction and restricted bodily autonomy have long impacted women of color, low-income women, disabled women, and people of diverse gender identities, making this story compelling and profoundly relevant today. The novel\u2019s evolution into a television show and now, an opera reflects its sustained cultural and political resonance. This event, co-hosted by the Detroit Opera and the University of Michigan\u2019s Center for History, Humanities, Arts, Social Sciences, and Ethics in Medicine, will feature a free, moderated discussion about the operatic adaptation of The Handmaid\u2019s Tale. Together, we will explore how artistic representations can stimulate important conversations about reproductive justice, structural power, and the ongoing struggles faced by women and people of marginalized genders.

Phosphate is a known precursor to vascular calcification which leads to the onset of CVCs and other complications. Increased serum levels of inorganic phosphate lead to calcification of vascular smooth muscle cells and a phenotypic switch to an osteoblast-like cell. Once thought to be a passive process of calcium and phosphate deposition within arteries, vascular calcification is now known to be an active, cell-regulated condition. There is a clinical need to develop a therapy for vascular calcification that reduces calcification without causing arterial damage similar to current therapies such as endovascular stent and atherectomy. We are examining the role of phosphate in vascular smooth muscle cell calcification and the potential of protein therapy to reduce calcification.\n\nBio: \nDr. C. LaShan Simpson Hendrix is an Associate Professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at the University of Cincinnati.

He is a member of the Harvard Biophysics Program and the Harvard Initiative for RNA Medicine (HIRM). He received his undergraduate and Ph.D. degrees from the University of California in Santa Cruz and performed postdoctoral studies at the University of California in San Francisco.\r\n\r\nThe Moazed lab studies how genes are silenced and how silencing is epigenetically inherited across generations. The lab\u2019s interests revolve around diverse pathways of heterochromatin-mediated gene silencing in yeast and mammalian cells. Work in budding yeast focuses on the structure and function of a diverged and relatively simple form of heterochromatin, which requires only three Silent information regulator (\u201cSir\u201d) proteins that form a histone deacetylase and chromatin-binding complex. Work in fission yeast focuses on a conserved example of heterochromatin that requires the nuclear RNA interference (RNAi) machinery, other RNA processing pathways, Heterochromatin protein 1 (HP1) homologs, and histone-modifying enzymes. In mammalian cells, the work is focused on HP1-mediated and other heterochromatin formation pathways. The lab uses approaches ranging from genetics and genomics, biochemical purification and reconstitution, and structural biology for their studies. Ultimately, the lab seeks to understand the conserved fundamental principles that govern the assembly, function, and epigenetic propagation of heterochromatin.", "occurrence_notes":null,

But what does the machine actually learn? The demand for explainable machine learning has never been higher--especially in sensitive fields like healthcare. An explainable machine learning algorithm can describe the learned relationships between input data and output predictions, as well as describe the reasons for single specific prediction. The list of truly explainable machine learning algorithms is short and often limited by poor predictive performance at complex tasks. We have developed a novel fuzzy neural network that exhibits both high explainability and accuracy in a variety of applications from classifying disease outcomes to regressing drug doses. This algorithm can use both domain-expert knowledge and complex data to converge on complex solutions. We present how this algorithm works for new users, the depth of explainability it offers, and highlight its performance in various applications.\r\n\r\nAbout the DCMB Tools & Technology Seminar Series\r\n\r\nThe DCMB Tools and Technology Seminar Series is held in Medical Science Building 1 (MS1), Room 4B700, each Thursday at 12pm EST.

Designing molecular structures that persist at the administration site or that promote drainage to regional lymphatic networks may enhance immune responses while sparing immune-related adverse events. Here, drug transport and local elimination mechanisms will be overviewed. Then, examples of molecular designs to direct drug delivery will be presented. Autoimmune therapies were designed by our lab to promote the drainage of autoantigens to secondary lymphoid organs to treat autoimmune diseases. Specifically, the size and solubility of these molecular constructs were tuned to promote access to the lymphatic compartment and induce immune tolerance in mouse models of type 1 diabetes. Our lab has also recently explored the design of immunostimulants that persist in tumor tissue after intratumoral\/perilesional injection. Intratumoral immunotherapy is proposed to work synergistically with checkpoint inhibitors making a nonresponsive \u2018cold\u2019 tumor \u2018hot\u2019 by recruiting and activating tumor infiltrating lymphocytes. This approach can suffer from systemic immune-related adverse reactions, however, if enough immunostimulant escapes the site of administration. Data on the use of electrostatic mechanisms to promote tumor retention will be presented. These examples underscore the need for rational design of drug molecules or formulations based upon the route of delivery and biological barriers encountered. \n\nBio:\nCory Berkland is the Mark and Becky Levin Professor in the Departments of Biomedical Engineering and Chemistry at Washington University in Saint Louis.

Through coordinated efforts such as the Alzheimer\u2019s Disease Genetics Consortium (ADGC) and the Alzheimer\u2019s Disease Sequencing Project (ADSP), dozens of reproducible risk loci have been identified across diverse populations. ADSP is now generating whole-genome sequence data at unprecedented scale, with an eventual goal of 150,000 genomes integrated with harmonized clinical and functional datasets. As data generation accelerates, interpretation of genetic discoveries has become the central bottleneck.\n\nIn this seminar, I will present computational frameworks developed within ADSP to bridge the gap between association and mechanism. These include multi-ancestry meta-analysis and fine-mapping approaches that leverage linkage disequilibrium differences to refine credible sets; integration of rare and structural variants within joint-calling pipelines; and colocalization strategies incorporating eQTL and other quantitative trait locus datasets to prioritize target genes. I will also discuss regulatory annotation tools such as INFERNO and BTS that integrate large collections of functional genomic tracks for context-specific variant interpretation, along with the informatics infrastructure developed within the NIA Genetics of Alzheimer\u2019s Disease Data Storage Site to support genome production, quality control, phenotype harmonization, and scalable coordination across more than 50,000 whole genomes. Together, these efforts illustrate how statistical genetics, functional genomics, and production-scale bioinformatics infrastructure can be integrated to advance mechanistic understanding of complex neurodegenerative disease. \n\nThe CCMB Seminar Series (Sponsored by DCMB) is held at Medical Science Unit I - 4B700, each Wednesday, at 4:00 pm EST, on bioinformatics-related topics.

Yet many technologies operate at a single scale\u2014either manipulating cellular environments without molecular precision or profiling molecular signals without spatial or mechanical context. My lab addresses this challenge through chemical and materials innovation, developing scalable platforms that integrate molecular design with quantitative analysis. We focus on two complementary directions: (1) physico-chemical design of soft interfaces with tunable nanoscale architecture and dynamic mechanics to probe and control material\u2013biology interactions, and (2) biomolecular sensing platforms that combine polymer chemistry, optical or electrochemical detection, and data-driven analysis for accessible diagnostics. In this talk, I will highlight two representative efforts: nature-inspired nanopatterned coatings with dynamically tunable surface topography for long-term antibacterial activity, and integrated bioanalytical sensing technologies for early, point-of-care detection of sepsis. \n\nBio:\nDr. Jouha Min is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Chemical Engineering at University of Michigan. She received her B.S. in Chemical Engineering from Cornell University in 2010 and her Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from MIT, where she was advised by Paula Hammond and Richard Braatz. She conducted her postdoctoral research with Ralph Weissleder at Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts General Hospital, where she worked at the interface of engineering, biology, and clinical translation. Dr. Min\u2019s research group applies core principles of chemical and biological engineering\u2014including transport phenomena, reaction kinetics, materials synthesis, and systems-level analysis\u2014to develop new methodologies for probing and controlling material\u2013biology interactions across three-dimensional space and time. Her work aims to establish a quantitative and mechanistic foundation for transformative advances in disease diagnosis, treatment, and prevention. She is the recipient of several honors, including the NSF CAREER Award (2025), the NIH R35 MIRA Award (2025), and the V Foundation V Scholar Award (2023).", "occurrence_notes":"https:\/\/umich.zoom.us\/j\/94337625486", "guid":"146152-21898595@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/146152", "building_id":"1000406", "building_name":"Lurie Biomedical Engineering (formerly ATL)", "building_official_id":1000406, "campus_maps_id":"7", "campus_maps_link_path":"lurie-ann-and-robert-h-biomedical-engineering-bld", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/lurie-ann-and-robert-h-biomedical-engineering-bld", "room":"1130", "location_name":"Lurie Biomedical Engineering (formerly ATL)", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Basic Science"], "website":"http:\/\/bme.umich.edu", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"http:\/\/bme.umich.edu", "title":null } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Biomedical Engineering", "group_id":"1143", "website":"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/profile.php?id=100094127215673" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146152_original-1.jpg", "image_description":"A speaker talking to a group of students in a classroom.", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146152_original-1.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146152_original-1.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146152_original-1.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146152_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146152_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146152_original-1.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146152_original-1.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146152_original-1.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146152_original-1.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146152_original-1.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146152_original-1.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146152_original-1.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146152_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146152_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146152_original-1.jpg" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/146152\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21898595 } , { "id":"146527-21899238", "datetime_modified":"20260312T170716", "datetime_start":"20260320T120000", "datetime_end":"20260320T135000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-03-20", "date_end":"2026-03-20", "time_start":"12:00:00", "time_end":"13:50:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Environmental exposures and health in agricultural settings", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Environmental exposures and health in agricultural settings: What we know; what can be done?", "event_subtitle":"What we know; what can be done?", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"Join us on Friday, March 20 (12-1:50 pm) in 1690 SPH 1 for a conversation on Environmental exposures and health in agricultural settings with special guests Rafael Buralli, PhD (University of S\u00e3o Paulo, Brazil), Madeleine Scammell, DSc (Boston University), and Alexis Handal, PhD (University of Michigan).

Eloundou et al. (2024) rank survey research among the most highly exposed occupations to LLM-driven automation, raising both opportunities and challenges for practitioners. While survey science has a rich tradition of adopting technological tools for tasks like data collection, analysis, and instrument design, the unique affordances and risks associated with LLMs call for a structured examination.\n\nThis paper presents findings from a systematic literature review of empirical and theoretical work at the intersection of LLMs and survey research. Specifically, we sought to synthesize examples of how LLMs are being applied across three broad phases of the survey research pipeline including: pre-data collection, data collection and post-data collection. Methodologically, this review identifies uneven distribution of LLM application across the survey pipeline. While pre-data collection stages (e.g., item writing, translation) are well explored, core practices like live interviewing, recruitment, and cross-lingual adaptation remain under-investigated. Additionally, few studies assess LLMs systematically across multiple populations, languages, or survey topics. In this presentation we will highlight not just the breadth of current use cases, but also the methodological and ethical considerations that must accompany them noting examples that are both promising as well as precautionary.\n\nTrent D. Buskirk, Ph.D. has recently joined the new School of Data Science at Old Dominion University. Prior to this appointment, Trent was the Novak Family Distinguished Professor of Data Science and outgoing Chair of the Applied Statistics and Operations Research Department at Bowling Green State University. Dr. Buskirk is a Fellow of the American Statistical Association and his research is positioned at the intersection of survey science, data science, computational social science, and human\u2013AI interaction. His specific research interests include Schema-Driven LLM-Based Inference, big data quality, recruitment methods through social media, the use of big data and machine learning methods for health, social and survey science design and analysis, mobile and smartphone survey designs and in methods for calibrating and weighting samples and fairness in AI models and interpretable ML methods. Trent has also been involved in various professional organizations serving as the President of the Midwest Association for Public Opinion Research in 2016, the Conference Chair for AAPOR in 2018 and a member of the scientific committee for the BigSurv series of conferences since 2018. Trent as also served as an Associate Editor (Methods) for the Journal of Survey Statistics and Methodology. Dr. Buskirk is currently serving on the AAPOR Responsible Integration of AI in Survey Research task force. When Trent is not geeking out over data science or survey research, he\u2019s likely out playing a competitive game of Pickleball!", "occurrence_notes":"In person, Room 1070 ISR, and via Zoom.",

Confidential computing can enable collaborative genome-wide association studies (GWAS) without compromising privacy or accuracy. However, due to limited secure memory space and performance overheads, previous solutions fail to support widely used regression methods. Here we present SECRET-GWAS\u2014a rapid, privacy-preserving, population-scale, collaborative GWAS tool. We discuss several system optimizations, including streaming, batching, data parallelization and reducing trusted hardware overheads to efficiently scale linear and logistic regression to over a thousand processor cores on an Intel SGX-based cloud platform. In addition, we protect SECRET-GWAS against several hardware side-channel attacks. SECRET-GWAS is an open-source tool and works with the widely used Hail genomic analysis framework.

Histotripsy is a platform technology, with the potential to enable truly non-invasive surgery for many applications throughout the body, from the abdominal region to the limbs, brain, and spine. However, we currently cannot perform histotripsy everywhere in the body due to limitations in our ability to safely deliver sufficient acoustic energy to the target through heterogeneous, attenuating bodily tissues. In this talk, I will present my work to (1) numerically model and quantify acoustic energy delivery to the body, and (2) optimize acoustic energy delivery through complex tissues via adaptive signal processing methods. I will discuss how these technologies will help expand the region where we can perform histotripsy, broaden the population of patients who can receive histotripsy treatment, and enable novel histotripsy applications. \n\nBio:\nDr. Ellen Yeats is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in the Department of Biomedical Engineering and member of the Histotripsy Lab, where she is advised by Dr. Zhen Xu and Dr. Timothy Hall. She received her B.S.E. in Biomedical Engineering from Vanderbilt University in 2017 and her Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering from the University of Michigan in 2024. In 2025, Dr. Yeats was awarded an NIH T32 Training Fellowship through the Michigan Translational Imaging Program (M-TIP) with the Department of Radiology of University of Michigan Medicine, where she is working with Dr. Shane Wells to develop improved imaging guidance and targeting for histotripsy. Through her research, Dr. Yeats develops technologies that optimize the targeting and delivery of acoustic energy to the body for histotripsy. Her work aims to improve current clinical histotripsy treatments in the liver and to expand histotripsy applications to new, challenging targets in the pelvis and spine.", "occurrence_notes":"https:\/\/umich.zoom.us\/j\/94337625486", "guid":"146698-21899492@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/146698", "building_id":"1000406", "building_name":"Lurie Biomedical Engineering (formerly ATL)", "building_official_id":1000406, "campus_maps_id":"7", "campus_maps_link_path":"lurie-ann-and-robert-h-biomedical-engineering-bld", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/lurie-ann-and-robert-h-biomedical-engineering-bld", "room":"1130", "location_name":"Lurie Biomedical Engineering (formerly ATL)", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Basic Science"], "website":"http:\/\/bme.umich.edu", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"http:\/\/bme.umich.edu", "title":null } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Biomedical Engineering", "group_id":"1143", "website":"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/profile.php?id=100094127215673" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146698_original-1.jpg", "image_description":"A speaker talking to a group of students in a classroom.", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146698_original-1.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146698_original-1.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146698_original-1.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146698_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146698_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146698_original-1.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146698_original-1.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146698_original-1.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146698_original-1.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146698_original-1.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146698_original-1.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146698_original-1.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146698_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146698_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/03\/event_146698_original-1.jpg" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/146698\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21899492 } , { "id":"143369-21892960", "datetime_modified":"20260107T120250", "datetime_start":"20260330T110000", "datetime_end":"20260330T120000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-03-30", "date_end":"2026-03-30", "time_start":"11:00:00", "time_end":"12:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Human Genetics Research Seminar Series", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Human Genetics Research Seminar Series: presenting Jean Gautier, PhD, Dr.Sc., Chair, Department of Epigenetics and Molecular Carcinogenesis The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center at Houston", "event_subtitle":"presenting Jean Gautier, PhD, Dr.Sc., Chair, Department of Epigenetics and Molecular Carcinogenesis The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center at Houston", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"Monday, March 30, 2026\r\n11:00am - 12:00pm\r\n1020 Kahn Auditorium, BSRB\r\n\r\nJean Gautier, PhD, Dr.Sc.\r\nChair, Department of Epigenetics and Molecular Carcinogenesis\r\nThe University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center at Houston\r\n\u201cSeminar Title TBD\u201d\r\n\r\nHosted By: Agnieszka Lukaszewicz, PhD, Department of Human Genetics\r\n___\r\nThe Gautier Laboratory at MD Anderson centers on how the 3D organization of the genome facilitates and coordinates DNA repair alongside other DNA-templated processes, including DNA replication and transcription.

To enhance precision, we developed Cancer Viewing Glasses (CVGs) that provide real-time intraoperative visualization of tumors and sentinel lymph nodes without disrupting the surgical workflow. CVGs detect near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) from tumor-targeted molecular probes and project both NIRF and visible light to a head-mounted display, enabling direct access to the surgical field under normal lighting conditions. In both mouse models and cancer patients, CVGs enabled real-time image guidance for complete tumor resection, with ongoing clinical studies demonstrating improved surgical throughput and accuracy. \n\nBio:\nDr. Samuel Achilefu is the inaugural Chair and Professor of the Biomedical Engineering Department at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas, Texas, USA.

The genetic and epigenetic evolution of cancer involves the exploitation of TEs, whereby TEs contribute directly to cancer-specific gene activities.

Webinars will take place noon-1:30 pm each day; calendar invites will be sent upon registration. \n\nFebruary 25: Discovery to Innovation - Gain a practical framework for deciding when to engage industry, how to demonstrate impact credibly and which funding mechanisms align with research maturing and scholarly goals.\nMarch 26: Industry Engagement for Faculty: From Early Signals to Funded Partnerships - Learn meaningful engagement strategies across the research lifecycle, emphasizing alignment with academic incentives, research integrity and appropriate funding mechanisms. \nApril 9: Building Industry Partnerships that Last: Whom to Talk to, What to Ask - Learn how to identify the right industry counterparts, structure early conversations to surface meaningful research and translational opportunities and set expectations that can evolve into sustained collaboration. \nContact RD-Support@umich.edu with questions.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"144802-21895961@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/144802", "building_id":"", "building_name":"Off Campus Location", "building_official_id":null, "campus_maps_id":"1", "campus_maps_link_path":"", "campus_maps_link":"", "room":"", "location_name":"Virtual", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Basic Science"], "website":"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/e\/1FAIpQLSfXassaslrnehUuyqVl2U3ob7MatZ2JGAG9U9p2lqkH7KEIsg\/viewform?usp=sharing&ouid=111564152079268939572", "links":[ { "type":"registration", "url":"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/e\/1FAIpQLSfXassaslrnehUuyqVl2U3ob7MatZ2JGAG9U9p2lqkH7KEIsg\/viewform?usp=sharing&ouid=111564152079268939572", "title":null } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"OVPR Office of Research Development", "group_id":"4405", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_144802_original-1.jpg", "image_description":"robotic arms in manufacturing processes", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_144802_original-1.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_144802_original-1.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_144802_original-1.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_144802_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_144802_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_144802_original-1.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_144802_original-1.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_144802_original-1.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_144802_original-1.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_144802_original-1.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_144802_original-1.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_144802_original-1.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_144802_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_144802_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_144802_original-1.jpg" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/144802\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":3, "first_occurrence":21895959 } , { "id":"146731-21899566", "datetime_modified":"20260318T101203", "datetime_start":"20260409T150000", "datetime_end":"20260409T160000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-04-09", "date_end":"2026-04-09", "time_start":"15:00:00", "time_end":"16:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Biomedical Engineering (BME 500) Seminar Series", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Biomedical Engineering (BME 500) Seminar Series: \"Bioengineering Human Embryo and Organ Models,\" with Jianping Fu, Ph.D.", "event_subtitle":"\"Bioengineering Human Embryo and Organ Models,\" with Jianping Fu, Ph.D.", "event_type":"Workshop \/ Seminar", "event_type_id":"21", "description":"Bioengineering Human Embryo and Organ Models\n\nAbstract:\nEarly human development remains largely mysterious and challenging to study. In this talk, I will describe our efforts to harness human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) and bioengineering approaches to create controllable models of human peri-gastrulation development and early organogenesis. These models recapitulate key in vivo developmental landmarks, including amniotic cavity formation, amniotic ectoderm-epiblast patterning, primordial germ cell specification, embryonic germ layer organization, yolk sac formation, and primitive hematopoiesis. Our current work focuses on using these controllable models as experimental platforms to dissect the molecular and genetic mechanisms underlying cell fate decisions, tissue patterning, and self-organization during human peri-gastrulation.\n\nI will also discuss our application of bioengineering tools and hPSCs to model critical aspects of early human neural development, including neural patterning in both brain and spinal cord regions, along rostrocaudal and dorsoventral axes. Ongoing projects further aim to model key features of human heart and gut tube development, as well as somitogenesis. Together, these efforts have established a suite of bioengineered human embryo and organ models with in vivo-like spatiotemporal cell differentiation and organization, providing powerful platforms for studying human development, physiology, and disease.\n\nBio:\nDr. Jianping Fu is a Professor of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Michigan whose research bridges bioengineering, stem cell biology, and developmental biology to advance understanding of human development and disease.

Peyton, Ph.D.", "event_type":"Workshop \/ Seminar", "event_type_id":"21", "description":"Tissue-Inspired Synthetic Biomaterials and Applications in Cancer\nAbstract:\nMost environments available to study how human cells behave are two-dimensional (2D). In real tissue, cells live surrounded by a three-dimensional (3D) extracellular matrix (ECM), which provides structure, drives cell function, and is dynamically remodeled by the cells within. A major limitation of the few examples of 3D cell culture environments that do exist (typically made from assemblages of proteins) is that their constituents are undefined, and they have unacceptable batch-to-batch variability. On the other end of the spectrum, the major drawbacks to using engineered, synthetic environments is their over-simplicity and lack of resemblance to real tissue. My lab\u2019s unique approach to biomaterial design is that we create cheap and easy-to-use, yet complex representations of the ECM of specific tissues. My lab\u2019s tissue-customized environments are hydrogels from synthetic polymers that replicate a tissue\u2019s 3D geometry, the stiffness of that tissue, and all the integrin-binding and protease-degradable components of the ECM of the tissue of interest. We made biomaterial designs for brain, bone marrow, omentum, and lung, and we have applied our approach to several complex problems in biology (e.g., astrocyte reactivity, mesenchymal stem cell differentiation, ovarian cancer, etc.). \n\nIn this seminar, I\u2019ll discuss how we use our engineering principles to create these environments and show how we\u2019ve begun to use them to study grand challenges in cancer biology. One of the overwhelming challenges in treating metastatic cancer is that tumors in the brain, lung, skeleton, and liver are typically drug resistant, and we do not have a good understanding of why these tumors evade therapy. The biomaterials we have built over the years are well suited for drug screening applications and to study how the extracellular microenvironment regulates the metastatic spread of cancer. \nBio:\nShelly Peyton is Professor and Department Chair of Biomedical Engineering at Tufts University. She received her B.S. in Chemical Engineering from Northwestern University in 2002 and went on to obtain her MS and PhD in Chemical Engineering from the University of California, Irvine in 2007. She was then an NIH Kirschstein post-doctoral fellow in the Biological Engineering department at MIT before starting her academic appointment in Chemical Engineering at the University of Massachusetts Amherst in 2011. At UMass she was named the Barry and Afsaneh Siadat Professional Development Professor, Armstrong Professor, Conti Fellow, and Provost Professor before moving to Tufts University to become chair of Biomedical Engineering in 2024. At Tufts, the Peyton lab is an interdisciplinary group of engineers and biologists that create bioinspired and dynamic models of human tissue with both synthetic biomaterials and decellularized tissues. They use these tissue models to 1) understand the physical relationship between metastatic cancer cells and the tissues to which they spread, 2) uncover the role of the extracellular matrix and its dynamics in drug resistant cancers, and 3) quantify how forces from traumatic brain injury damage cells within the brain. Shelly\u2019s honors include a Pew Biomedical Scholarship, an NIH New Innovator Award, an NSF CAREER award, Biomedical Engineering Society fellow, and an American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering fellow. Outside of her research and her Chair\u2019s role, Shelly is passionate about graduate student training and diversifying the academy. She was awarded an Outstanding Teaching Award and a Diversity Award from the College of Engineering at UMass, has led an REU Site, co-directed a Biotechnology (BTP) NIH T32 training program, and was lead PI of a PREP program at UMass.

One focus of our research is on developing population genetic theory that lets us predict patterns of diversity and genetic structure under varying models of demography and selection. Another focus is on turning that theory into computational tools to compare model predictions to observations from natural populations. Finally, we have a strong interest in inferring (mostly) human evolutionary history from genetic data, including both ancient history and population structure as well as more recent migrations, movements, and dynamics.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"143372-21892957@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/143372", "building_id":"1005037", "building_name":"Taubman Biomedical Science Research Building", "building_official_id":1005037, "campus_maps_id":"509", "campus_maps_link_path":"alfred-a-taubman-biomedical-science-research-bldg", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/alfred-a-taubman-biomedical-science-research-bldg", "room":"1020 Kahn Auditorium", "location_name":"Taubman Biomedical Science Research Building", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Basic Science"], "website":"https:\/\/medschool.umich.edu\/events?f%5B0%5D=series%3A13266", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/medschool.umich.edu\/events?f%5B0%5D=series%3A13266", "title":"Human Genetics Research Seminar Series" } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of Human Genetics", "group_id":"1137", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"", "image_description":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/143372\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21892957 } , { "id":"147561-21901279", "datetime_modified":"20260409T105118", "datetime_start":"20260420T130000", "datetime_end":"20260420T140000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-04-20", "date_end":"2026-04-20", "time_start":"13:00:00", "time_end":"14:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Single Cell Spatial Analysis Monthly Seminar Series", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Single Cell Spatial Analysis Monthly Seminar Series: Featuring: Samouil L.

Perturb-FISH recovers intracellular effects that are consistent with Perturb-seq results in cultured monocytes, and finds density-dependent regulation of the innate immune response. Pairing Perturb-FISH with a functional readout in a screen of autism spectrum disorder risk genes, shows common calcium activity phenotypes in induced pluripotent stem cell derived astrocytes and their associated molecular pathways. Finally, Perturb-FISH can identify neighborhood dependent perturbation effects in a complex tissue by showing immune-tumor interactions in a xenograft model engrafted with human PBMCs. Perturb-FISH is thus a general method for studying the genetic and molecular associations of spatial and functional biology at single-cell resolution.", "occurrence_notes":"If you do not have a badge,

These efficacy failures are primarily due to inherent species-specific differences, fundamental biological variances between model organisms and humans, and the limitations of existing models to accurately reflect the complexity of human disease and treatment responses. In this discussion, I will explore how the NIH and FDA are advocating for new alternative methodologies (NAMs) to reduce or replace animal testing. I will highlight recent advancements in technologies such as stem cells, organoids, and microphysiological systems (MPS), along with the roles of clinical genomics and AI\/ML. Additionally, I will examine how these platforms can collaboratively enhance our understanding of rare orphan diseases, facilitate drug discovery, support precision medicine, and enable clinical trials in a dish (CTiD).\n\nAbout the Speaker:\nJoseph C.

TBD\u201d\r\n\r\nHosted By: Xander Nuttle, PhD, Department of Human Genetics\r\n___\r\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.\r\n\r\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.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"143397-21893075@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/143397", "building_id":"1005037", "building_name":"Taubman Biomedical Science Research Building", "building_official_id":1005037, "campus_maps_id":"509", "campus_maps_link_path":"alfred-a-taubman-biomedical-science-research-bldg", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/alfred-a-taubman-biomedical-science-research-bldg", "room":"1020 Kahn Auditorium", "location_name":"Taubman Biomedical Science Research Building", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Basic Science"], "website":"https:\/\/medschool.umich.edu\/events?f%5B0%5D=series%3A13266", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/medschool.umich.edu\/events?f%5B0%5D=series%3A13266", "title":"Human Genetics Research Seminar Series" } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of Human Genetics", "group_id":"1137", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"", "image_description":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/143397\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21893075 } , { "id":"143393-21893074", "datetime_modified":"20260107T120504", "datetime_start":"20260511T110000", "datetime_end":"20260511T120000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-05-11", "date_end":"2026-05-11", "time_start":"11:00:00", "time_end":"12:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Human Genetics Research Seminar Series", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Human Genetics Research Seminar Series: presenting Tony Capra, PhD, Professor Bakar Computational Health Sciences Institute Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics University of California, San Francisco", "event_subtitle":"presenting Tony Capra, PhD, Professor Bakar Computational Health Sciences Institute Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics University of California, San Francisco", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"Monday, May 11, 2026\r\n11:00am - 12:00pm\r\n1020 Kahn Auditorium, BSRB\r\n\r\nTony Capra, PhD\r\nProfessor\r\nBakar Computational Health Sciences Institute\r\nDepartment of Epidemiology and Biostatistics\r\nUniversity of California, San Francisco\r\n\u201cSeminar Title TBD\u201d\r\n\r\nHosted By: Xinjun Zhang, PhD, Department of Human Genetics\r\n___\r\nWe use the tools of computer science and statistics to address problems in genetics, evolution, and biomedicine.

for Precision Medicine 2.0, Population Health, Aging and Global Health Impact\n\nFEATURING: Joe Poh Sheng YEONG, MBBS, PhD, FRCPath, IMCB (A*STAR) and Singapore General Hospital\n\nCancer clinical trials face major recruitment challenges, with delays in patient matching contributing to high failure rates and billions in annual losses. Immune profiling technologies such as immunohistochemistry (IHC) and multiplex IHC are essential for biomarker discovery and precision oncology, but their widespread use is limited by cost, tissue scarcity, and labor-intensive workflows.\n\nIn this talk, I will discuss how AI-driven spatial biology approaches, including our H&E 2.0 platform, can accelerate patient triage and biomarker screening for clinical trial recruitment. As combination immunotherapies and antibody-drug conjugates expand, scalable and cost-effective biomarker testing is becoming increasingly important for drug development and clinical decision-making.\nI will also highlight advances in spatial proteogenomics from our recent Nature cover study (April 2025), demonstrating how integrated spatial proteomics, genomics, and transcriptomics can reveal tumor heterogeneity, immune interactions, and noncanonical \u201cdark\u201d proteins involved in cancer progression. By combining AI with longitudinal population-scale data, we developed predictive models capable of forecasting critical illness years in advance.\n\nFinally, I will introduce an AI-powered \u201cpseudo-time\u201d framework aimed at supporting more timely, accessible, and value-based precision medicine worldwide.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"148170-21903180@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/148170", "building_id":"", "building_name":"Off Campus Location", "building_official_id":null, "campus_maps_id":"1", "campus_maps_link_path":"", "campus_maps_link":"", "room":"", "location_name":"Virtual", "has_livestream":1, "livestream_type":"zoom", "livetream_require_login":0, "livestream_id":"93359354513", "livestream_password":"816151", "livestream_link":"https:\/\/umich.zoom.us\/j\/93359354513", "cost":"", "tags":["Basic Science"], "website":"https:\/\/singlecellspatialanalysis.umich.edu\/special-research-seminar\/", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/singlecellspatialanalysis.umich.edu\/special-research-seminar\/", "title":"Seminar Information" }, { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/singlecellspatialanalysis.umich.edu\/", "title":"SCSAP Program Website" } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Single Cell Spatial Analysis Program (SCSAP)", "group_id":"4668", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/event_148170_original-1.png", "image_description":"Joe Poh Sheng YEONG", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/event_148170_original-1.png", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/event_148170_original-1.png", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/event_148170_original-1.png", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/event_148170_original-1.png", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/event_148170_original-1.png", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/event_148170_original-1.png", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/event_148170_original-1.png", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/event_148170_original-1.png", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/event_148170_original-1.png", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/event_148170_original-1.png", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/event_148170_original-1.png", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/event_148170_original-1.png", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/event_148170_original-1.png", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/event_148170_original-1.png", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/event_148170_original-1.png" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/148170\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21903180 } , { "id":"147463-21901073", "datetime_modified":"20260406T155723", "datetime_start":"20260512T130000", "datetime_end":"20260512T140000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-05-12", "date_end":"2026-05-12", "time_start":"13:00:00", "time_end":"14:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Effectiveness of Inductive Vehicle Charging to Alleviate EV Range Anxiety", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Effectiveness of Inductive Vehicle Charging to Alleviate EV Range Anxiety: Sina Bahrami", "event_subtitle":"Sina Bahrami", "event_type":"Presentation", "event_type_id":"16", "description":"This project evaluates the efficacy, optimal placement, and economic viability of inductive vehicle charging (IVC) technology.

The findings suggest that IVC is not a universal solution, but a targeted tool within a rapidly evolving electrification landscape. It may serve as a bridging technology or a specialized solution for high utilization fleets, rather than a permanent requirement for all electric mobility.\n---\nAbout the speaker: Sina Bahrami is an Assistant Research Scientist in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Michigan.

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 \u2018readers\u2019. 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.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"143394-21893073@events.umich.edu",

Translating RNA Science into Real-World Medicines.\u201d\n\nSchedule \u2014 Monday, June 1 | 4 p.m. \u2013 5 p.m.\n4:00 p.m \u2013 5:00 p.m. | Sarah Herridge, Ph.D. Lecture \u2014 3695 North Lecture Hall, Medical Science Building II\n\nAbstract and Speaker Info\n\nAbstract:\nRNA medicines have long promised a new way to treat disease, offering speed, precision, and modularity that other therapeutic modalities may struggle to match. Well before the COVID-19 pandemic, RNA-based approaches, including mRNA and oligonucleotide therapeutics, were already reshaping how disease could be targeted, particularly in oncology. These early programs demonstrated both the potential of RNA and the practical complexity of translating it into robust, patient-ready medicines.\n\nThe COVID-19 pandemic marked a pivotal moment for the field. RNA science was translated at unprecedented speed and scale into effective vaccines, demonstrating clear real-world impact. As the world moves beyond the pandemic, the question becomes: what comes next for RNA medicines? This talk explores how lessons from RNA therapeutics and vaccines are now converging to expand RNA-based approaches beyond infectious disease, particularly in oncology and other complex indications.\n\nDrawing on her own career spanning academia, startups, and biopharma, Sarah will share a personal perspective on the evolution of RNA medicines. She traces her journey from leading an academic laboratory to founding and scaling two startups at the intersection of oligonucleotide therapeutics and artificial intelligence, and now to supporting RNA research translation and commercialization within a global biotech organization. This journey provides a practical lens on how RNA science moves from discovery to development, and why translational thinking must begin long before clinical trials.\n\nFinally, the presentation will focus on how BioNTech is working with the global research ecosystem to support this next phase of RNA innovation. By combining deep RNA expertise with partnerships, manufacturing, and mentoring capabilities, BioNTech aims to help researchers move RNA discoveries from the lab toward innovative medicines, ensuring that the momentum built during the pandemic translates into lasting health impact.\n\n\nAbout Sarah Herridge, Ph.D.:\nDr. Sarah Herridge is an accomplished leader with over 15 years of experience in RNA therapeutics development for oncology, spanning the full spectrum from target discovery to clinical trials. She earned her PhD in Biochemistry in Germany and completed her postdoctoral training at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, where she collaborated with Ionis Pharmaceuticals on pioneering RNA-based cancer therapies. Sarah has held leadership positions in academia, including as Lab Head at the University of Otago in New Zealand, and served as the Founder and Chief Scientific Officer for two startups in the RNA therapeutics sector: Amaroq Therapeutics and Fold AI.\n\nShe currently serves as Director of Research & Scientific Affairs at BioNTech in Australia. In her current role, Sarah leads the development and execution of research strategy, manages scientific collaborations and external partnerships, oversees the onboarding of new research projects, and drives the implementation of scientific engagement initiatives to advance BioNTech\u2019s mission globally.", "occurrence_notes":"In-person event only", "guid":"148227-21903350@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/148227", "building_id":"1000213", "building_name":"Medical Science Research Building 2", "building_official_id":1000213, "campus_maps_id":"103", "campus_maps_link_path":"medical-sciences-research-bldg-ii", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/medical-sciences-research-bldg-ii", "room":"3695 North Lecture Hall", "location_name":"Medical Science Research Building 2", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Basic Science"], "website":"https:\/\/rna.umich.edu\/events\/sarah-herridge-ph-d-special-lecture\/", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/rna.umich.edu\/events\/sarah-herridge-ph-d-special-lecture\/", "title":"Event Link" } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Center for RNA Biomedicine", "group_id":"4014", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/event_148227_original-1.png", "image_description":"Flyer for Lecture by Sarah Herridge, BioNTech, Australia, June 1", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/crop-event_148227_original-1.png", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/crop-event_148227_original-1.png", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/crop-event_148227_original-1.png", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/crop-event_148227_original-1.png", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/crop-event_148227_original-1.png", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/crop-event_148227_original-1.png", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/crop-event_148227_original-1.png", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/crop-event_148227_original-1.png", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/crop-event_148227_original-1.png", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/crop-event_148227_original-1.png", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/crop-event_148227_original-1.png", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/crop-event_148227_original-1.png", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/crop-event_148227_original-1.png", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/crop-event_148227_original-1.png", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/05\/crop-event_148227_original-1.png" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/148227\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21903350 } , { "id":"145812-21897843", "datetime_modified":"20260223T143824", "datetime_start":"20260616T140000", "datetime_end":"20260616T150000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-06-16", "date_end":"2026-06-16", "time_start":"14:00:00", "time_end":"15:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Rare Failures, Public Perception, and Automated Driving: Why Exceptional Events Shape Trust in Emerging Safety Technologies", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Rare Failures, Public Perception, and Automated Driving: Why Exceptional Events Shape Trust in Emerging Safety Technologies: Professor Daniel V.

McGehee", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"This lecture explores the \u201cvaccine paradox\u201d of automated driving: why rare, highly publicized failures of self-driving vehicles provoke intense emotional and political reactions while the far more common harms of human driving remain normalized. Drawing on risk psychology, public-health history, and human-factors research, Prof. McGehee examines how visibility imbalance, trust, and perceptions of control shape public acceptance of emerging vehicle automation. Using real-world examples from automated-vehicle deployments alongside lessons from vaccine adoption and safety communication, the talk argues that societal expectations for perfection in automation may obscure meaningful population-level safety gains. The presentation concludes by discussing how transparency, responsible system design, and careful language around driver-assistance technologies can help align public perception with evidence as automated driving evolves toward broader deployment.\n---\nAbout the speaker: Daniel V. McGehee, is Professor of Industrial and Systems Engineering at the University of Iowa and Director of the Driving Safety Research Institute (DSRI) and the National Advanced Driving Simulator (NADS), one of the world\u2019s largest and most advanced ground-vehicle simulation facilities. For more than three decades, his work has focused on human factors, driver behavior, and the safe integration of advanced vehicle technologies, including automated driving and driver-assistance systems. Dr. McGehee\u2019s research spans engineering, medicine, public health, and transportation policy, with projects funded by the U.S. Department of Transportation, National Institutes of Health, and the automotive industry.
