SUMMARY:Practical intro to GPU programming in Python and Julia
DESCRIPTION:This event is part of the Tools for AI/ML research in life sciences event series arranged by the SciLifeLab Data Centre. This webinar is organized in collaboration with the EuroHPC National Competence Centre Sweden (ENCCS) as well as the National Supercomputer Centre\, LiU. \n\n\n\nTitle: Practical intro to GPU programming in Python & Julia \n\n\n\nSpeaker: Yonglei Wang\, PhD\, Research Software Engineer and HPC application expert\, ENCCS \n\n\n\nWhere and when: February 2\, 2024 at 10:00-11:00 Stockholm time\, online. Registration is open till February 2 at 9:00.  \n\n\n\nAbstract: Availability of Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) has transformed the way we work with machine learning and data science challenges in life sciences. The parallel processing capabilities of GPUs have allowed training of ever more complex models\, allowing researchers to analyze large biological datasets with unprecedented efficiency. However\, in order to make use of the potential that GPUs offer we need be able to write fitting machine learning model code and analysis pipelines. In this webinar ENCCS will present some practical tips about what to keep in mind and how to optimize your code when running analyses on GPU hardware. This webinar will be most useful to researchers who already work with large datasets and would like to improve their understanding of how to work with GPUs. At the end\, the participants will also be given an overview of online materials and in-person courses where researchers can learn about this topic in depth.  \n\n\n\nRegister to join the event\n\n\n\nMore about the event series: \n\n\n\nTools for AI/ML research in life sciences is an event series by the SciLifeLab Data Centre aimed at life science researchers who use machine learning methods in their work.

He attended Edinburgh University\, Scotland and after completing his undergraduate degree in Biochemistry (honors)\, he obtained his Ph.D. degree from the University of Leeds\, England. Following his Ph.D.\, Iain carried out postdoctoral research out at the Friedrich Miescher Institute\, Switzerland\, then at the Biocentre\, University of Basel\, Switzerland.  In 1985\, he joined EMBL as a Group Leader at the Heidelberg laboratory. He became Coordinator of the Gene Expression Unit at EMBL in 1990 before being promoted to the position of Scientific Director in 1999. Iain was appointed Director General of EMBL in May 2005 and remained in post till the end of 2018. He then moved to Italy to launch the Human Technopole Foundation (HT)\, a government-funded foundation focusing on research on human health and wellbeing. He grew the organization from 14 staff to 390 including 273 researchers in just over four years. This included construction and refurbishment of 20\,000 m2 of lab and office space\, organized and mainly carried out during the COVID pandemic. HT is now producing high-quality research. \n\n\n\nIn addition to his leadership success at EMBL and HT\, Iain’s own research achievements have been considerable and varied. His early work centered on a group of ribonucleoprotein (RNP) particles that function in the processing of messenger RNA precursors. His analyses of these RNPs spanned a variety of topics including transcription of the RNA components\, RNA-protein interactions\, function of the RNPs in messenger RNA production and assembly of the RNPs from their component parts in vivo. This work led to numerous studies of transport of RNA and proteins between the cell nucleus and cytoplasm. Iain’s group identified numerous factors and mechanisms involved in this important process. Iain’s more recent work has demonstrated the critical role of the Ran GTPase in regulating mitotic events including spindle assembly\, nuclear pore complex formation and nuclear envelope assembly. \n\n\n\nHis prominent standing in the field was underlined by his election as President of the RNA Society and his award of the prestigious Louis-Jeantet Prize for Medicine in 2001.In addition\, he has received numerous other awards and honorary lectureships\, including the FEBS Anniversary Prize\, Caledonian Research Foundation – Royal Society of Edinburgh Award\, Italian Chemical Society Award\, Feldberg Foundation Prize. He is Honorary Professor of the Faculty of Bio-Sciences of the Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg\, and Honorary Doctor of the Universities of Edinburgh\, Dundee\, Umea and Leeds.His scientific contributions have also been recognized by his election as a Fellow of the Royal Society (London)\, Foreign Associate of the National Academy of Sciences (USA)\, Foreign Member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Science\, Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh\, Member of Academia Europea\, Foreign Honorary Member of the American Academy of Arts and Science\, Member of the Deutsche Akademie der Naturforscher (Leopoldina)\, appointed Trustee of the Darwin Trust\, appointed Curator of the Lautenschläger Research Prize\, appointed Member of the Life Sciences Search Committee for the Körber Prize\, and appointed Member of the Search Committee for the Louis-Jeantet Prize for Medicine. He was awarded the German Cross of Merit (Bundesverdienstkreuz) in 2021. \n\n\n\nHe is a member of many national and international scientific advisory boards and panels\, including periods as chair of EIROforum (European Intergovernmental Research Organisations)\, the Senior Awards Advisory Board of the Wellcome Trust\, Senior Review Board of the HHMI\, Chair of the ISTA executive Board\, Chair of the Institut Curie ISAB\, Chair of the Darwin Trust of Edinburgh Board of Trustees\, etc. etc. He is a member of the European Molecular Biology Organization (EMBO) and helped make The EMBO Journal a highly successful international scientific journal\, acting as Executive Editor from 1990 to 2004. \n\n\n\n\nSvante Pääbo\, Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology\, Germany\nSvante Pääbo has developed techniques that allow DNA sequences from archaeological and paleontological remains to be determined. His research group has determined high-quality genome sequences from Neanderthals and discovered Denisovans\, a previously unknown hominin group in Asian. They have shown that both Neanderthals and Denisovans contributed DNA to present-day humans and that these contributions have physiological and medical consequences today. Pääbo also works on the comparative and functional genomics of modern and archaic humans and apes. \n\n\n\nHe is a Director at the Max-Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig\, Germany\, and an Adjunct Professor at the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology\, Japan. \n\n\n\n\nKjetil Tasken\, Univ. of Oslo\, Oslo University Hospital\, Norway\nProfessor Kjetil Taskén has been key in building Norway’s national cancer precision medicine initiative and now coordinates the Cancer Mission PRIME-ROSE project for DRUP-like clinical trials across Europe.

SUMMARY:AI for Breast Cancer Risk Prediction
DESCRIPTION:I will describe the shortcomings of current breast cancer screening programs which are based on mammography for everyone. I will discuss how we developed an approach based on artificial intelligence to analyze mammograms of supposedly healthy women. The system considers three aspects\, long-term risk\, mammographic masking and subtle cancer signs. We developed the method\, analyzed the performance in retrospective data and performed a clinical study – ScreenTrustMRI. Given the same budget of additional MRI\, the AI approach detected around four times more cancers than would have been expected from established methods based on simplistic estimates of mammographic density. \n\n\n\nFredrik Strand\, Karolinska Institutet \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nregistration\n\n\n\nClinical Talks \n\n\n\nClinical Talks is an educational seminar series open to everyone. It is organized by the SciLifeLab Precision Medicine Capability\, and invites a mixture of speakers that are experts with a clinical perspective on topics concerning rare diseases\, cancer\, microbiology and bioinformatics. \n\n\n\nHealth is individual and patients can benefit greatly from personalized treatments\, tailored for their specific molecular disposition. This rapidly emerging field\, known as Precision Medicine\, relies on technology development and requires close collaboration between scientists and healthcare professionals. SciLifeLab aims to bring cutting-edge technologies\, first-class expertise and data infrastructure to build the foundation of tomorrow’s Precision Medicine.

SUMMARY:Clusters\, gene flow and artificial genotypes - looking at population structure from a deep learning angle
DESCRIPTION:NBIS\, Scilifelab’s Bioinformatics platform\, arranges an open AI and IO Seminar Series aimed at knowledge-sharing about Artificial Intelligence and Integrative Omics (AI & IO) analysis and applications in the Life Science community. The seminar series is open to everyone. The seminar is run over Zoom on the third Friday of the month during academic terms\, typically between 10 and 11 am\, with ca. 45 min long presentation and 15 min discussion. \n\n\n\nFor further info\, please see this website. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nClusters\, gene flow and artificial genotypes: looking at population structure from a deep learning angle\n\n\n\nMarcin Kierzcak\, NBIS\, Uppsala University \n\n\n\nWe will look at different ways of modelling and visualising population structure based on genomic kinship. Starting from more traditional approaches like PCA or MDS as benchmark\, we will see how one can build more complex deep learning-based models (autoencoders) and we will discuss when such approach can be beneficial. Finally\, we are going to see how generative deep learning (VAEs) can be used to augment original input data with some artificially-generated individuals with desired pre-defined kinship relationships. \n\n\n\nsee further on the session page https://scilifelab.atlassian.net/l/cp/oR289EJK for updates. \n\n\n\nHope to see you all on this exciting talk on Friday\, \n\n\n\nClick here to join zoom conference

DESCRIPTION:Tobias Andermann \n\n\n\nAssistant Professor\, DDLS fellowUppsala University  \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBio\n\n\n\nTobias Andermann is a biodiversity researcher dedicated to providing data and computatio- nal tools for combating the global biodiversity crisis. His group\, the Biodiversity Data Lab\, is working on the intersection of molecular biology\, spatial ecology\, and machine learning\, with the mission to provide a more comprehensive view on the distribution of biodiversity\, including hidden diversity of inconspicuous and even undescribed species through the use of environmental DNA. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nSpatial biodiversity modeling with remote sensing and AI\n\n\n\nThere is an ever-increasing need for developing standardized ways of quantifying the biodiversity value of a site. This need arises from international and local policies (e.g. the COP15 UN Biodiversity agreement) as well as from the independent investments of companies world-wide in developing biodiversity-positive profiles\, motivated by their public perception. This momentum provides an unprecedented opportunity to efficiently protect biodiversity on a large scale to turn around the alarmingly negative biodiversity trends of the recent decades and centuries. While individual biodiversity assessments for specific sites can be done through targeted inventories\, either through taxonomic experts or increasingly through the use of environmental DNA\, we also need ways of scaling up such biodiversity evaluations to larger scales\, covering entire regions or countries. AI models provide a unique tool to leverage complex biodiversity and remote sensing data to make predictions of biodiversity on large spatial scales\, while at the same time providing high spatial resolution. In this talk I will present some of these models from my ongoing research and discuss their utility\, as well as their current shortcomings and limitations. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHost: Joëlle Rüegg joelle.ruegg@ebc.uu.se\, UU

SUMMARY:Modulation of Innate Immunity by Dengue Viruses: Feeling the STING
DESCRIPTION:Professor Ana Fernandez-Sesma obtained her Ph.D. in Biological Sciences from the University of Salamanca\, Spain\, and the Icahn School of Medicine Mount Sinai in New York. Professor Fernandez-Sesma is currently the Department Chair of the Department of Microbiology at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai (ISMMS) in New York. \n\n\n\nHer research focuses on the modulation of the innate immune system by viruses with public health potential such as Dengue (DENV)\, Influenza (IAV)\, Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)\, Zika (ZIKV)\, and SARS-CoV-2. The goal of their studies is to understand the evasion mechanisms used by viruses to escape the immune system and establish infection in humans. Dr. Fernandez-Sesma’s research has greatly contributed to fundamental areas of virology\, biology\, and immunology using primary cell systems of dendritic cells (DCs) and macrophages\, as well as lung epithelial cells combining immunology and molecular techniques.  \n\n\n\nMore information here: https://labs.icahn.mssm.edu/fernandez-sesma-lab/

SUMMARY:Info-seminar: Call for Letter of Interest in Multimodal Precision Medicine
DESCRIPTION:The Precision Medicine Capability now invites clinical researchers (PI) to submit Letters-of-Interest\, LoI\, for co-developing collaborative projects to test feasibility of generating interoperable multimodal data on clinically relevant samples at SciLifeLab. \n\n\n\nRead more\n\n\n\nregistration\n\n\n\nThis call will fund 2-3 pilot projects to perform multimodal analyses at any of SciLifeLab’s  technology platforms aiming to increase feasibility of bedside-to-bench-to-bedside coordination. \n\n\n\nThe pilots will mainly focus on sample flow\, both bedside-to-bench and cross-platform including data integration. All needed permits need to be in place and sampling processes should aim to align with routine sampling and an efficient use of patient material to avoid unnecessary sampling\, The pilots will focus on feasibility in generating multimodal data on small clinical cohorts (10s of patients) and the exact sample processing flow will need to be customized together with the PI and the technology platforms according to sample sets available and the requested data types to be generated. The funding provided will cover for the experimental costs and the expertise at the technology platform. \n\n\n\nInfo Seminars\n\n\n\nThe coordinators are available for discussion during two zoom-webinars. \n\n\n\nMarch 7\, 2024\, 13:00-14:00. \n\n\n\nMarch 14\, 2024\, 13:00-14:00. \n\n\n\nSign up to get the Zoom Link.
