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

DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Mattias Forsell\, Associate Professor\, Umeå University \n\n\n\nAbstract: The impact of age on the induction of protective immunity has been a neglected area of research. However\, the recent pandemic has highlighted the vulnerability of the elderly to severe or fatal outcomes after virus infections. This vulnerability is not limited to SARS-CoV-2 but also applies to other common respiratory infections\, such as Influenza type A and RSV. To improve our understanding of age-related immune responses\, we have implemented a longitudinal strategy to monitor the immunity\, infections\, and fatalities of individuals living in nursing homes in five different Swedish healthcare regions. This vulnerable population comprises the oldest and most frail individuals in Sweden\, with a median age of 86 years and one or several comorbidities. The study began in September 2021\, and we have performed repeated capillary blood sampling of more than 3\,000 individuals. We will present vaccine-specific antibody responses after sequential COVID-19 mRNA boosts. By combining immunology data with national registry-based data\, we will demonstrate the impact of vaccination on SARS-CoV-2-related deaths during a time period characterized by waves of neutralization-resistant Omicron variants BA.1\, BA.2\, and BA.5. We will discuss the use of such data for the implementation of strategies to identify the frailest individuals of an already vulnerable population and its impact on future vaccine strategies. \n\n\n\nShort bio: Mattias Forsell is an Associate Professor of Immunology and a Senior Lecturer in Biomedical Laboratory Sciences at Umeå University. His laboratory is focused on cellular and molecular studies of B cell responses\, with the aim of understanding basic processes for protective immunity and how they can be utilized for the development of antibody-based therapeutics and improved vaccine strategies. His research accomplishments include the development of a potential treatment for fatal hantavirus infection\, a detailed molecular understanding of B cell responses to heterologous vaccination\, and the implementation of a sampling strategy to provide equal access to high-quality serology for inhabitants in Västerbotten. Dr. Forsell completed his graduate studies at MTC\, Karolinska Institutet\, and the Vaccine Research Center at the National Institutes of Health in the USA. He received a PhD in Medicine and continued as a postdoc at NIH before returning to KI. In 2015\, he was recruited to Umeå University\, where he established his current research group. In 2020\, he received a Consolidator Grant from the Swedish Research Council and is now coordinating KAW-funded SciLife efforts in Vaccine Research and Pandemic Preparedness. His laboratory is also a node for a NIH-funded Center of Excellence in Translational Medicine for the discovery and development of antiviral antibodies.

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.

SUMMARY:Digital image analysis for scientific applications
DESCRIPTION:Language of instruction: EnglishCourse period: 2023-04-11– 2023-05-09Course structure: The course will be hybrid on site and via zoom to facilitate remote participation. For computer exercises we encourage on-site participation for best possible support\, but will do our best to also support those participating remotely. \n\n\n\nRECOMMENDED PREREQUISITES\n\n\n\nThe target group is PhD students from all subjects where digital image analysis (IA)  is used as a research tool. No previous experience in IA is required from the course participants\, but an interest in its potential as a tool in their own research is important. The course can be followed with a basic knowledge of mathematics (corresponding to upper‐ secondary level entry requirements) and basic computer skills. \n\n\n\nLEARNING OUTCOMES\n\n\n\n\nexplain fundamental notions of IA\, such as digitization\, image enhancement\, segmentation\, and feature extraction and classification;\n\n\n\ncritically evaluate several different methods for image segmentation\, compression\, distance computation\, frequency analysis\, etc.\n\n\n\nuse software to apply and evaluate algorithms for solving image analysis problems;\n\n\n\nanalyze and plan the steps necessary to solve a realistic image analysis problem;\n\n\n\ngive examples of applications in research and industry where image analysis is used.\n\n\n\n\nLEARNING OUTCOMES FOR DOCTORAL DEGREE \n\n\n\nThe course participants will practice their ability to perform scientific analyses\, find and test appropriate IA methods\, and present and discuss their scientific results. \n\n\n\nCOURSE CONTENTS\n\n\n\nThe focus of the course is on reaching a broad understanding of IA and a basic understanding of the theory and algorithms behind the IA methods. The course starts with basic IA methods and computer exercises\, including IA research methodology and IA research ethics. Modern techniques based on Artificial Intelligence will also be discussed in relation to the classical approaches.  \n\n\n\nINSTRUCTION\n\n\n\nThe pedagogical approach will combine traditional lectures\, examples of real life applications and hands-on exercises. We also use a flipped classroom approach based on our pre-recorded course material which enables participants to prepare for discussions and exercises. \n\n\n\nASSESSMENT\n\n\n\nThe examination will be divided into two parts: \n\n\n\n\ncompleted four computer exercises\, which enable the course participants to both get familiar with the interfaces of common software and to solve realistic image processing problems\,\n\n\n\na written exam\n\n\n\n\nCompleted exercises and passing written exam gives 5hp.  \n\n\n\nCOURSE EXAMINER\n\n\n\nCarolina Wählby\, carolina.wahlby@it.uu.se together with other seniors involved in the BioImage Informatics Unit of SciLifeLab (https://www.scilifelab.se/units/bioimage-informatics/)\, the Image analysis node of the National Microscopy Infrastructure (http://www.nmisweden.se/)\, and the Centre for Image Analysis (https://www.cb.uu.se/) hosted at the Dept. of Information Technology. \n\n\n\nDEPARTMENT WITH MAIN RESPONSIBILITY\n\n\n\nDept. of Information Technology \n\n\n\nCONTACT PERSON/S \n\n\n\nCarolina Wählby\, carolina.wahlby@it.uu.se \n\n\n\nAPPLICATION\n\n\n\nSubmit the application for admission to: carolina.wahlby@it.uu.seSubmit the application not later than: March 25\, 2023
