Evolutionary biology and genomics provide powerful tools for assessing the capacity of populations to adapt and persist. As a case study for adaptive capacity\, I focus on a unique disease that threatens the persistence of Tasmanian devils. Devil facial tumor disease (DFTD) is a transmissible cancer that has spread across the species range. Using genomic techniques\, we have found evidence of rapid evolution in response to DFTD as well as a genetic basis for disease-related phenotypes. Recently a second independently derived transmissible cancer was discovered in devils\, raising the possibility that this is a recurrent selective force. We have found widespread evidence of both historical and contemporary selection in the devil genome\, but no evidence that genes currently responding to DFTD were under recurrent selection in the past. These results help us assess the capacity of devil populations to adapt to threats\, including transmissible cancers\, and can help guide the management of both wild and captive devil populations. \n\n\n\nBio \n\n\n\nPaul A. Hohenlohe is an Associate Professor of Biological Sciences at the University of Idaho\, USA. He earned his Ph.D. in Zoology from the University of Washington and worked as a conservation biologist for the U.S. federal government. During his postdoctoral work at the University of Oregon\, he was part of the team that developed RAD sequencing as a tool for population genomics. His current research program focuses on evolutionary genetics and genomics with applications to conservation of biodiversity\, across a wide range of plant and animal taxa. He is also the director of the Bioinformatics and Computational Biology graduate degree program at UI. \n\n\n\n\nTanja Schwander\, Abstract and Bio\nEvolution and consequences of parthenogenesis: Insights from stick insects \n\n\n\nParthenogenesis is predicted to have many evolutionary consequences\, since gamete production and the restoration of somatic ploidy levels via fertilization no longer take place\, and because male phenotypes are not exposed to selection. The empirical evidence for most predictions remains however scarce\, largely because in case studies of isolated parthenogenetic species\, putative effects of parthenogenesis are confounded with species specific patterns. To fill this knowledge gap\, we study independently evolved asexual arthropod species and their sexual relatives. I will discuss the insights we developed from genome andtranscriptome comparisons of sexual and asexual stick insect species as well from comparisons across new and previously published genomes of parthenogenetic animals. \n\n\n\nBio \n\n\n\nTanja Schwander earned her PhD at the University of Lausanne 2007 and then got postdoctoral and independent researcher fellowships at Simon Fraser University (CA)\, University of Groningen (NL) and the Wissenschaftskolleg zu Berlin (DE). Tanja returned to Lausanne with a SNSF starting grant in 2013 and got a tenure track position there in 2014. Since 2018\, Tanja is an associate professor at University of Lausanne. \n\n\n\n\nLuis-Miguel Chevin\, Abstract and Bio\nPredictability of ecology and evolution in randomly fluctuating environments \n\n\n\nMost natural environments exhibit some component of random variation or noise\, which can only be predicted in a probabilistic sense. Current anthropogenic change\, beyond causing trends in mean environments\, also modifies the patterns of these fluctuations\, so there is a need to better understand their influences on ecology and evolution. Population responses to environmental noise depend not only on the magnitude of fluctuations\, but also on their alternation pattern\, as captured by their temporal autocorrelation. However\, a major challenge when investigating these effects is that their inherent stochasticity requires abundant replication\, which is often unfeasible in nature. I will argue that a powerful strategy towards this goal is to use a combination of approaches: theory\, experimental evolution\, and analyses of natural populations. I will illustrate this by confronting results from our long-term experiments with the microalga Dunaliella salina under randomly fluctuating salinity to theoretical predictions about changes in population size\, genetic composition\, phenotypes\, and fitness. I will end by considering how ecological interactions\, within and between species\, may alter these population responses to randomly fluctuating environments. \n\n\n\nBio \n\n\n\nLuis-Miguel Chevin did his PhD at University Paris South (2005-2008) then a postdoc at Imperial College London in Silwood Park (2009-2011). Luis-Miguel was hired in 2011 as a permanent CNRS researcher at the Center for Functional and Evolutionary Ecology in Montpellier\, where he is now a CNRS research director. \n\n\n\n\nFor more information\, feel free to contact events@scilifelab.se or the organizers: \n\n\n\nScientific Committee\n\n\n\n\nArild Husby\, Evolutionary Biology Centre\, Uppsala University\n\n\n\nFrank Johansson\, Evolutionary Biology Centre\, Uppsala University\n\n\n\nPascal Milesi\, SciLifeLab\, Uppsala University\n\n\n\nAndreas Wallberg\, Biomedical Centre\, Uppsala University\n\n\n\nMatthew Webster\, Biomedical Centre\, Uppsala University\n\n\n\nTanja Slotte\, Stockholm University

SUMMARY:User Experience (UX) Design to build intuitive web applications for life science research
DESCRIPTION:This online webinar will showcase the basic User Experience (UX) Design principles with lessons learned from adopting them to build web applications in a life science research environment. The event is organised and hosted by NBIS and SciLifeLab with an invited speaker and Senior UX Designer from the European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI). \n\n\n\nThe webinar aims to highlight some of the basic principles of User Experience (UX) Design\, to demonstrate how they provide value in the development process and to guide participants to resources for adopting UX Design practices in their own projects. While the intended audience is NBIS and SciLifeLab staff the registration is open to everyone interested in developing web applications and services for life science research. Registration is required to receive instructions and connection details for the event.  \n\n\n\nsign up here\n\n\n\nNikiforos Karamanis\, Senior UX Designer at the European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI)\, describes his talk as follows: \n\n\n\n– In this talk I’ll present a case study which introduces the basic principles of UX Design and will hopefully inspire you to apply them to your own projects. I’ll outline the three iterative steps that the UX Design process consists of\, namely User Research\, Design and Feedback. In User Research we try to understand who our information or data is for and why these people need it. During the Design phase we explore different ways of helping our target users answer their questions. Feedback sessions with users help us figure out if our designs actually work. I’ll conclude the talk with the lessons that I learned from applying this process in a scientific setting and will share some resources to help you learn more about UX design.

SUMMARY:[The Svedberg seminar] - High-throughput biology at the organismal level
DESCRIPTION:Jan 18\, at 15:15 in BMC\, C8:301 \n\n\n\nProf. Randall Peterson\,Dean\, College of PharmacyDepartment of Pharmacology and Toxicology\, University of Utah\, USA \n\n\n\nBio\n\n\n\nRandall T. Peterson\, PhD is a chemical biologist whose research utilizes high-throughput screening technologies to discover new drug candidates for cardiovascular and nervous system disorders. Unlike conventional drug discovery programs that utilize simplified\, in vitro assays\, the Peterson lab screens using living zebrafish\, ensuring that the drug candidates discovered are active in vivo. Several of the compounds discovered by the Peterson laboratory have become widely used research tools or preclinical drug candidates.Dr. Peterson received his PhD from Harvard University where he studied as a Howard Hughes Medical Institute predoctoral fellow in the laboratory of Stuart Schreiber.  He completed a postdoctoral fellowship with Mark Fishman at Massachusetts General Hospital. Dr. Peterson spent 14 years as a faculty member at Harvard University where he was the Charles Addison and Elizabeth Ann Sanders Chair in Basic Science at Harvard Medical School\, Scientific Director of the MGH Cardiovascular Research Center\, and Senior Associate Member of the Broad Institute.  In 2017 he moved to the University of Utah as L.S. Skaggs Presidential Endowed Professor and Dean of the College of Pharmacy. \n\n\n\nTitle of the talk: High-throughput biology at the organismal level\n\n\n\nThe impact of high-throughput technologies on biological research has been remarkable. For example\, high-throughput drug screens have revolutionized drug discovery\, and high-throughput CRISPR screens are revolutionizing gene discovery. Notably\, these techniques have focused almost entirely on simple\, in vitro or cell-based assays\, leaving untouched organismal processes such as embryonic development\, physiology\, and animal behavior. These organismal processes are best studied in vivo\, and consequently have not been amenable to high-throughput biology. The Peterson lab is focused on applying high-throughput technologies to such organismal processes and is developing methodologies that enable CRISPR screens and small molecule screens to be applied to organismal processes in zebrafish. Recently\, we have discovered small molecules and genes with novel activities on the cardiovascular\, nervous\, and endocrine systems. I will describe how the compounds and genes were discovered\, what they have taught us about biology\, and how they might find practical or clinical utility. \n\n\n\nHost: Marcel den Hoed marcel.den_hoed@igp.uu.se\, UU

SUMMARY:OpenUC2: From Ideas to Globally Accessible Instruments
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Benedict Diederich\, Leibniz IPHT Jena \n\n\n\nPandemics\, extinction of species\, and antibiotic crises: These are not dystopian scenarios of the distant future\, but current\, observable problems that people globally are now trying to deal with. Science is responsible here for guiding the path\, researching connections on a global level and disseminating its findings. However\, technical expertise and financial investments in laboratory equipment and experiments are often limiting factors. What follows from this is the lack of accessibility to the scientific tools necessary for researching socially relevant topics. \n\n\n\n“Frugal Science” thinks of scientific instruments from a whole new perspective. Limited by the available budget and parts\, one has to get creative to solve a scientific question posed by society. Following this idea\, we have applied this method to the – in many situations – costly field of microscopy to provide a deeper insight into the microcosm for everyone\, everywhere. With our modular\, open-source optics toolbox UC2 (You.See.Too.)\, we provide teaching materials in STEM subjects and put powerful optical tools in the hands of those who need them most: Biologists\, Chemists\, Physicists\, Computational scientists\, and students. We prove its capabilities as a rapid prototyping tool for optics by rapidly developing a new method to capture large amounts of plankton in 3D using a light sheet and a holographic setup. The “HoLiSheet” costs less than the laptop that processes the data and is fully open-source.

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
