Seminar "Stereo-Seq to study the brain gene expression across species" - Prof. Wei-Wu
2023-10-06 15:30 - 16:30 | Gamma 2 Lunchroom, SciLifeLab, Tomtebodavägen 23, Solna, Sweden
Speaker: Prof. Wei-Wu

Title of Talk: Stereo-Seq to study the brain gene expression across species

The whole-brain single-cell spatial transcriptome atlas and cross-species comparisonThe brain is the most complex organ of humans with the highest heterogeneity of cell types. The composition and spatial location of different neuron subtypes, as well as their precise connections, are the basis for brain functions. Rapid advances in spatial transcriptomic technologies allow spatial mapping of gene expression as well as cellular subtypes at single-cell resolution of brain sections. We applied Stereo-Seq technology developed by BGI, to construct the whole-brain cell atlas for macaques, marmoset, and mice, with hundreds of coronal slices of spatial transcriptome across the whole brain per animal. Single-cell spatial transcriptome reveals cell-type organization in the macaque cortex and cross-species comparative analysis identified primate-specific cell types enriched in cortical layer 4, whose marker genes are expressed in a region-dependent manner (Chen et al., Cell 2023). Whole-brain cell atlas provides the cellular and molecular basis for understanding the function, evolution, development, aging, and pathogenesis of the brain.

CSI Seminar: ‘Burnout and Stress’
2023-10-17 14:00 - 14:30 | Hybrid event in Gamma 2 lunchroom and zoom, Tomtebodavägen 23 B, Solna, 17165, Sweden
We are excited to host a new Coaching in Science Initiative (CSI) Seminar titled: ‘Burnout and Stress’
The number of people with a burnout diagnosis has sky-rocketed during the last decade and it is now considered to be one of our major national diseases. Stress is a natural and important reaction but when the response is kept active for too long it can have negative effects. In this seminar, we will cover some basic aspects of stress and burnout, and share personal experiences of going through a burnout process. Together we’ll discuss where we currently experience negative stress and what measures we can take to find and keep a sustainable balance in life.
Date: 17/10/2023
Time: 14:00 – 14:30
Zoom link: https://kth-se.zoom.us/j/68847309081
On-site location: Gamma 2 lunch room
We will begin with a ca 20 min talk, held in Solna and over zoom. Then proceed with a reflection and discussion held only on-site. We encourage other sites to form watch parties, by listening in together to the talk and then hold their own discussion afterwards. Hopefully seeding many local chapters of CSI.
To help facilitate discussion and reflection, consider the follow starter questions:
Awareness: where do we experience high risk for negative stress in our lives?
Analysis: how well do I currently handle negative stress?
Alternative: how can we relate to burnout/stress, in ourselves and others?
Action: how will knowledge of burnout/stress change my decisions going forward?

CSI Seminar: ‘Movement Snacks’
2023-11-22 14:00 - 14:30 | Hybrid event in Gamma 2 lunchroom and zoom, Tomtebodavägen 23 B, Solna, 17165, Sweden
We at the Coaching in Science Initiative (CSI) are excited to host our first invited speakers talk titled: ‘Movement Snacks’

In this seminar Movement Snacks will raise awareness about integrating movement into our day, and providing simple exercises we all can do, regardless of where we sit and work!

A snack is a small meal that bridges the gap between larger ones, providing relief from hunger. Similarly, a movement snack involves a brief burst of physical activity to give your body a break from inactivity. If you find yourself sitting for extended periods, don’t be overly concerned – it’s a common situation for most of us. Introducing short bursts of movement, or “movement snacks,” throughout the day can help enhance blood circulation, alleviate joint stiffness, increase your energy levels, sharpen your focus, and contribute to your overall well-being.

But what exactly is the Movement Snacks initiative? It’s more than just a concept – it’s a peer-led active break initiative. Using a “train the trainer” model, it aims to train instructors in guiding active breaks among their group of peers, co-workers. The idea isn’t just to provide knowledge but to move from theory to actual practice. In this seminar, Movement Snacks will provide practical examples and inspire everyone to prioritize their health and well-being, regardless of where they are. Thereby we want to ‘Practice what we preach’ and contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG 3,11).

Date: 22/11/2023Time: 14:00 – 14:30Zoom link: https://kth-se.zoom.us/j/63988892680On-site location: Gamma 2 lunch room

We will begin with a ~ 20 min talk, held in Solna and over zoom. After the talk, there will be a short Q&A opportunity for people participating over zoom. Then we will proceed with a reflection and discussion held only on-site. We encourage other sites to form watch parties, by listening in together to the talk and then hold their own discussion afterwards. Hopefully seeding many local chapters of CSI.

To help facilitate discussion and reflection, consider the follow starter questions:

Awareness: where do we experience Movements Snacks in our lives already?Analysis: how well do I currently integrate Movements Snacks into my life?Alternative: what alternatives for sedentary behavior are there, for ourselves and others?Action: how will knowledge of Movements Snacks change my decisions going forward?

Please forward this to friends and colleagues!

Yours sincerely,The CSI Team

CSI Seminar: ‘Moving our Mental Roadblocks’
2023-12-15 14:00 - 14:30 | Hybrid event in Gamma 2 lunchroom and zoom, Tomtebodavägen 23 B, Solna, 17165, Sweden
We are excited to host a new Coaching in Science Initiative (CSI) Seminar titled: ‘Moving our Mental Roadblocks’

In this CSI seminar, we will raise awareness about mental obstacles and barriers that keep us from the change we want. We will explore Why sustainable change has yet to happen for us, How we can change that, and What tools we can use to make it happen!

This seminar will be helpful for when we want to make changes in our life, and yet they don’t happen, e.g., New Year’s resolutions we keep promising ourselves. Starting on that thing, which we have procrastinated for quite some time. Beginning on a project task early instead of at the last minute. Forming healthy new habits, such as flossing our teeth or a 30 min walk every day. When we mean to plan rest into our schedule to reduce the stress in our lives, but – it just does not happen.

With our Moving Mental Roadblocks Model, we will explore why the change we want has yet to happen, and introduce our mental tool, the Emotion-Thought-Action (ETA) ladder, which can be used to enact sustainable change effectively.

Date: 15/12/2023Time: 14:00 – 14:30Zoom link: https://kth-se.zoom.us/j/69311596145On-site location: Gamma 2 lunch room
