SUMMARY:Open Hearing: Gothenburg Phenomics – Proof of Concept Project Invitation
DESCRIPTION:The aim is to establish proof-of-concept for life science research with expressed (pre-)clinical relevance. This will be achieved by forming a closed loop from biomedical research question (initiated by pre-clinical researchers) to returning actionable biological results\, in terms of mechanisms and potential biomarkers and targets. \n\n\n\nIn this open hearing we would like to identify preclinical and clinical research questions where samples and data are available for proof of concept for a combined metabolomics/proteomics/data analysis study. We will coordinate data deliveries from platforms to data storage via inferential analysis and extraction of biomarkers and mechanisms of interest go from compute and back to the biomedical researcher (question owner). \n\n\n\nRegistration and more information

SUMMARY:[Clinical Talks] The PONCH study
DESCRIPTION:The PONCH Study of the influence of diet\, obesity and gestational diabetes (GDM) on maternal and child metabolic health\n\n\n\nUlrika Andersson Hall\n\n\n\nUniversity of Gothenburg \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nUlrika is currently an associate professor and project manager of the Pregnancy Obesity Nutrition and Child Health (PONCH) study headed by professor Agneta Holmäng at the Institute of Neuroscience and Physiology\, Sahlgrenska Academy\, University of Gothenburg. Ulrika has an MSc in Molecular Biotechnology from Uppsala University and a PhD in Biochemistry from Oxford University. In 2015\, after post-doctoral positions at the Medical Research Center of Imperial College\, London\, and at the Department of Food and Nutrition and Sport Science\, University of Gothenburg\, she joined the PONCH group. She now runs the PONCH study focusing on maternal and child metabolic health during and after pregnancy\, but has also added other branches to the study\, particularly with focus on the transition from gestational diabetes to type-2-diabetes. \n\n\n\nThe PONCH study: \n\n\n\nPONCH started in 2009 and is an ongoing prospective\, longitudinal study investigating the influence of diet\, obesity and gestational diabetes (GDM) on maternal and child metabolic health. The specific aims of PONCH are to better understand how body composition\, insulin resistance and energy metabolism change during and after pregnancy in women of normal body weight\, with obesity or with GDM\, and how this affects the body composition and health of their children. Another important aim is to evaluate insulin resistance after GDM in order to better be able to predict the development of type-2-diabetes in these women. Here\, we also investigate the effect of life-style factors in the transition from GDM to type-2-diabetes. Our hope is that the research will influence future clinical care of women with GDM. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nregister to receive zoom link\n\n\n\nModerator: Päivi Östling\, SciLifeLab \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nClinical Talks\n\n\n\nClinical Talks is back for more!

SUMMARY:Kinase Drug Discovery - Strategies for Success
DESCRIPTION:A half day dedicated to kinases in drug discovery organized by SciLifeLab DDD in collaboration with AstraZeneca.  \n\n\n\nKinases continue to attract much attention in drug discovery. Since the first compounds were launched in 2001 the learning curve of how to tackle different challenges has been steep. At the symposium we hope to give a broad overview where the field stands today and the different approaches one can take in drug discovery when interacting with kinases.  \n\n\n\nIn the late afternoon we will dive deeper into the details of data generation and data interpretation to learn and discuss different techniques that can be applied to increase the chance for success. \n\n\n\nThe meeting is believed to be valuable for researchers in the area of drug discovery like medicinal chemists\, structural biologists\, pharmacologists\, protein scientists\, toxicologists etc.  \n\n\n\nThis is a hybrid event. Registration for the conference on site is binding and last day for on site participation is March 14th. \n\n\n\nRead more\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProgram

SUMMARY:[The Svedberg seminar] - Protein engineering for functional hybrids and biomaterials: applications in biomedicine and technology
DESCRIPTION:Prof. Aitziber Cortajarena \n\n\n\nResearch Professor Scientific DirectorCenter for Cooperative Research in Biomaterials (CIC biomaGUNE) Spain \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBio\n\n\n\nProf. Aitziber Cortajarena earned her Ph.D. in Biochemistry from the Universidad del País Vasco in 2002. Then\, she worked on protein design in the group of Dr. Lynne Regan at Yale University\, USA\, as a Postdoctoral Fellow and Associate Research Scientist. She joined IMDEA Nanociencia in 2010 and started her independent research in nanobiotechnology. In 2016\, she joined CIC biomaGUNE as Ikerbasque Research Professor. Currently\, she leads the Biomolecular Nanotechnology group and is Scientific Director at CIC biomaGUNE. \n\n\n\nHer research focuses on protein engineering toward the generation of functional nanostructures and bioinspired materials for applications in nanobiotechnology and nanomedicine. \n\n\n\nProtein engineering for functional hybrids and biomaterials: applications in biomedicine and technology\n\n\n\nProteins are the most versatile biological building blocks\, composed of smaller units called amino acids\, which offer a rich chemisty. The diverse 3D structures of proteins translate into a wide range of functionalities\, making them ideal candidates for use as building blocks in tailored nanofabrication and the creation of novel protein-based functional composites and biomaterials. \n\n\n\nIn our group\, we aim to leverage the potential of engineered proteins as building blocks for the generation of functional nanostructures and bioinspired materials for a wide range of applications in technology and biomedicine. Our goal is to create versatile platforms based on simple protein building blocks\, which can be used to fabricate a variety of protein-based functional composites and biomaterials. \n\n\n\nTo demonstrate the potential of these engineered protein-based systems\, several examples will be shown\, including their use in catalysis\, bioelectronics\, biosensing\, and for the treatment and diagnosis of diseases. \n\n\n\nHost: Antonietta Parracino antonietta.parracino@kemi.uu.se\, UU

SUMMARY:Data-driven life science and the RDA: Leveraging global data communities in regional initiatives and cross-border infrastructures
DESCRIPTION:This workshop will showcase how to leverage the Research Data Alliance (RDA) to support life science research today and what role the RDA and international data infrastructures can play in the transition to an increasingly data-driven research practice. It is organised by ELIXIR\, NBIS and the Science for Life Laboratory (SciLifeLab) and includes speakers on life science data & interoperability\, stakeholder engagement\, and liaison strategies with the RDA. \n\n\n\nThe workshop aims to promote and refine strategies for liaising with global communities and in particular the RDA to develop and adopt solutions for data-driven life science research. The intended audience is research communities\, regional research infrastructures and cross-border infrastructure collaborations. However\, registration is open to everyone who is involved in furthering shared principles and standards for life science research data. To accommodate a dynamic and diverse group of participants\, the workshop is hosted as a hybrid event\, accepting participants on-site in Gothenburg\, Sweden or online via Zoom. \n\n\n\nThe event schedule is organised into two parts where invited speakers will present their experiences leading into discussions focused on finding effective liaison strategies and forming new collaborations across communities and infrastructures. Part 1 focuses on showcasing examples of how to leverage activities and outputs of the RDA to converge on shared principles and practices. Part 2 focuses on networking to outline and refine some elements of realistic and effective liaison strategies that could be implemented across the organisations\, initiatives and communities that the participants represent. \n\n\n\nRegistration is free for both on-site and virtual attendance. The number of spaces for on-site attendance is limited by the size of the room and some spaces will be reserved for speakers to promote wide representation across communities and infrastructures. \n\n\n\nContact: wolmar.n.akerstrom@uu.se \n\n\n\nRegistration\n\n\n\nPart 1: Showcase on leveraging the RDA for life science data\n\n\n\n09:00–11:00 CET | Presentations by invited speakers \n\n\n\n\nLife science data communities and infrastructures\n\n\n\nRegional resources with national and cross-border data sharing initiatives\n\n\n\nLeveraging and promoting RDA outputs and activities\n\n\n\nPanel discussion\n\n\n\n\nPart 2: Liaison strategies across communities & infrastructure\n\n\n\n11:00–12:00 CET | Guided discussions among participants \n\n\n\n\nWork towards realistic and effective liaison strategies\n\n\n\nPotential collaborations and steps going forward\n\n\n\n\n12:00–13:00 CET | Networking lunch for on-site participants

SUMMARY:[The Svedberg seminar] - The Underlying Cause of Human Autoimmune Disease
DESCRIPTION:DAVID A. HAFLER\, MD\, FANA \n\n\n\nWilliam S. and Lois Styles Professor of Neurology and ImmunobiologyChair\, Department of Neurology\, Yale School of MedicineNeurologist-in-Chief\, Yale New Haven HospitalFounding Associate Member\, Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard \n\n\n\nBio\n\n\n\nDavid A. Hafler\, M.D. is the William S. and Lois Stiles Edgerly Professor and Chairman Department ofNeurology and Professor of Immunobiology\, Yale School of Medicine\, and is the Neurologist-in-Chiefof the Yale-New Haven Hospital. He has made seminal discoveries in the pathogenesis of multiplesclerosis and autoimmune diseases including identification of human autoreactive T cells andthe mechanisms that underlie their dysregulation with the discovery of human regulatory T cells.He led the discovery of genetic variants causing. He was awarded the Dystel Prize for MS researchand the 2023 AAI Steinman Award for Human Immunology Research. He is an Honorary Member ofthe Scandinavian Society for Immunology and has been elected to membership in the AmericanSociety of Clinical Investigation\, The Association of American Physicians\, and the National Academy of Medicine. \n\n\n\nThe Underlying Cause of Human Autoimmune Disease\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nMultiple sclerosis (MS) is a prototypic\, genetically mediated autoimmune disease induced by environmental factors where genetic perturbation of cis-regulatory elements leads to immune dysregulation and generation of myelin reactive T cells secreting inflammatory cytokines. We have identified 233 common allelic variants associated with MS risk where approximately 60% of candidate causal variants map to enhancers and super-enhancers marked by chromatin features in T and B cells. We found that CD4+Foxp3+ Tregs are defective in MS and by performing transcriptomic and epigenomic profiling discovered that upregulation of a primate-specific short PRDM1 isoform (PRDM1-S) induces SGK1 independent from evolutionally conserved long PRDM1\, leading to destabilization of Foxp3 and Treg dysfunction. This aberrant PRDM1-S/SGK1 axis is shared among other autoimmune diseases and it is of interest that SGK-1 is induced by high salt\, an environmental risk factor in MS. Finally\, as suggested by genetic mapping\, B cells play a critical role in the disease and B cell depletion is highly effective in treating early disease. \n\n\n\nHost: Katarina Lundblad katarina.lundblad@neuro.uu.se\, UU

SUMMARY:Towards the routine data collection from pico-gram crystals
DESCRIPTION:In the frame of the “SciLifeLab Site Umeå / KBC Infrastructure Seminar Series”\, the seminars will be organised every second Tuesday during spring 2023. The seminars will be held in a hybrid format IRL in Glasburen\, KBC\, and online via Zoom. Learn more about the seminar series and Schedule for Spring 2023 here. On March 28th\, 12:00-13:00\, SciLifeLab Site Umeå / KBC Infrastructure Seminar Series presents:  \n\n\n\nTowards the routine data collection from pico-gram crystals using MicroED \n\n\n\nJohan UngeMicroED core manager and collaborator with the Gonen lab at UCLA\, Los Angeles. \n\n\n\nSign up (latest by Monday\, 27 March\, 10 a.m.) for on-site attendance to reserve your free lunch sandwich: \n\n\n\nregistration\n\n\n\nor follow online via Zoom: https://umu.zoom.us/j/63138997026 (registration is not required). \n\n\n\nAbstract: Although electron crystallography has been known almost a century\, the current success for organic and biological samples started only a decade ago. The theoretical complications from effects such as for instance dynamical scattering can be largely overcome using continuous rotation as in MicroED or cRED. Today an exponentially growing number of structures are deposited to PDB and CSD from MicroED data collections. The technique has several advantages and is a sample saving addition to the structural biology toolbox. The ability to collect a full data set from crystals 100 nm thick has allowed the structure determination of several proteins from nano sized crystals as well as small molecules directly from powder. The ability to see electrostatic potential as well as hydrogen atoms is useful for many functional studies. Recent experiences\, advantages and complications as well as newest developments towards an automatic\, accessible and efficient crystal structure determination is presented.

SUMMARY:Regulation of protein disaggregation in primates 
DESCRIPTION:Cells have evolved multitiered protein quality control systems to help maintain protein homeostasis\, but under acute or chronic proteotoxic stresses\, these systems overload and result in accumulation of toxic protein aggregates. Decreased cellular capacity in aggregate clearance could trigger cell dysfunction and death leading to disease and ageing. Human cells possess an Hsp70-based disaggregase system to resolve a wide range of protein aggregates. It is not clear how these disaggregases are assembled and regulated in mammals. We report the identification of a dedicated pathway for rapidly assembling protein disaggregases during stress recovery after protein damage and outlines how aggregate clearance is orchestrated in primate cells.
