SUMMARY:True precision medicine in immuno-oncology\, challenges\, and opportunities
DESCRIPTION:Sara Mangsbo\, biträdande universitetslektor vid institutionen för farmaceutisk biovetenskap\, Immunonkologi.\n\n\n\n\n\nOn March 18\, Uppsala University Associate Professor Sara Mangsbo will talk about how the future of cancer therapy is becoming personal. Sara co-founded Strike Pharma to further develop the Uppsala University and SciLifeLab Drug Discovery platform co-developed ADAC technology (Adaptable Drug Affinity Conjugates).  \n\n\n\nWith current diagnostic tools also\, immunotherapy can and should enter the omics-field and the developed delivery platform envisions a truly patient tailored neoantigen cancer vaccine strategy\, ensuring that the body becomes the factory to generate tumor-specific T cells\, that can find and destroy tumor cells regardless of the location in the body. With a cost and time efficient “True Precision Medicine” approach\, tailored therapeutics will be a realistic future\, ultimately lowering the healthcare burden for a sustainable future. \n\n\n\nSara Mangsbo \n\n\n\nregister to receive zoom link\n\n\n\nSara Mangsbo is a Senior Lecturer in Antibody Drugs at Uppsala University at the Department of Pharmacy. She has her education background with a PhD in Clinical Immunology Uppsala University. Sara has since completed her postdoctoral studies at Leiden University Medical Center and started her own research group at Uppsala University in 2016. Her work focuses on the development and immunological characterization of novel immunotherapies and therapeutic combination strategies for drug discovery. Sara has previously also held a brand lead position in Immuno-oncology at Astra Zeneca’s marketing division and co-founded the drug development and service company startups Immuneed AB and VivoLogica AB (current board member). The drug development platform from Immuneed was acquired by the Norwegian pharmaceutical company Ultimovacs in 2018.  \n\n\n\nIn late 2020\, Sara co-founded Strike Pharma AB. Strike Pharma develops a novel next generation Antibody-Drug Conjugate (ADC) technology\, the ADAC technology. ADACs are short for Adaptable Drug Affinity Conjugates and are built to improve deliver tailored made synthetic peptides to specific cell types for improved immune modulation. Using the ADAC platform\, efficient delivery and extended half-life of patient tailored peptide therapeutics will ensure that the body becomes the factory\, producing billions of T cells that can find and destroy tumors cells regardless of the location in the body. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Clinical Talks” has been renewed for yet another exciting\, innovative\, and enlightening season. This season will focus on sustainable innovations within Life Sciences\, that have the potential to contribute to a better climate friendly future for our future generations. Also new this year is that the seminar is co-organized in a collaboration between SciLifeLab and KI Innovations . \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSeason 5\, will be held September 2021 until March 2022 with scheduled Talks\, during Friday mornings 09-09:30 am via ZOOM (with some time-zone friendly adjustments for our international speakers). Each session consists of a talk given by our invited speaker followed by Q&A. The seminar is an open educational seminar series for our ever-expanding Life Science community.

SUMMARY:Mapping human tissue architecture using spatial transcriptomics
DESCRIPTION:Omer Ali Bayraktar\, PhDWellcome Sanger Institute\, UK \n\n\n\nAbstract \n\n\n\nSpatial transcriptomic technologies promise to resolve cellular wiring diagrams of tissues in health and disease\, but comprehensive mapping of cell types in situ remains a challenge. First\, I will present сell2location\, a principled Bayesian model that can resolve fine-grained cell types in spatial transcriptomic data and create comprehensive cellular maps of diverse tissues. We comprehensively assess cell2location in three different tissues and demonstrate its versatility for mapping complex tissue architecture. Second\, I will introduce our work on dissecting tissue pathology in severe COVID-19 and demonstrate how integrated single cell and spatial transcriptomics can map the cellular landscape of alveolar damage in the human lung. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nBiography \n\n\n\nDr Bayraktar is a neuroscientist interested in studying human brain development and disease. His technical interests are focused on high-throughput spatial genomics. Omer was a postdoctoral fellow in David Rowitch’s lab\, where he developed new spatial genomic pipelines for mapping large tissues and discovered astroglial layers in the cerebral cortex. Omer started his research group in the Cellular Genetics Programme at the Wellcome Sanger Institute in 2018. His group has developed new computational tools to integrate single cell and spatial transcriptomics data for comprehensive mapping of cell types across complex tissues. \n\n\n\nCurrently\, Omer is leading the Sanger-EBI High-Throughput Spatial Genomics Team to develop experimental and computational platforms to map human tissue architecture at scale.

SUMMARY:FAIRPoints Presents- Harmonising FAIR data sharing with Legal Compliance
DESCRIPTION:Location: Online via Zoom \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Event in your Time Zone \n\n\n\nSpeaker: Harshvardhan J. Pandit \n\n\n\nSpeakers bio  \n\n\n\nFAIRPoints is an event series highlighting pragmatic measures developed by the community towards the implementation of the FAIR (Findable\, Accessible\, Interoperable\, Reusable) data principles\, in collaboration with GoFAIR US\, SDSC\, AGU\, and SciLifeLab Data Centre.  \n\n\n\nFAIR mechanisms have pioneered a new paradigm of making data discoverable\, accessible\, and reusable. At the same time\, a new wave of privacy and data protection laws (including GDPR) around the world is regulating how personal data is shared responsibly.  \n\n\n\nThis talk explores the intersection between the two communities and discusses how each can help the other. In particular\, it focuses on how we can utilise FAIR metadata and mechanisms to ensure data is shared and used legally while also increasing its reusability. Conversely\, it also takes a look at what FAIR principles can do for improving how we deal with legal compliance. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister here\n\n\n\nSign up for future events here \n\n\n\nTwitter: @FAIR_Points

SUMMARY:[Clinical Talks]Seeing is believing\, unraveling the discovery of a centimeter-long macro-bacteria
DESCRIPTION:On April 8\, Dr. Jean-Marie Volland\, Scientist at Berkeley Lab and Laboratory for Research in Complex Systems (LRC Systems)\, and Shailesh Date\, CEO of LRC Systems (Adj. Assoc. Professor at UCSF)\,will talk about their recent discovery and characterization of the macro-bacteria Ca. Thiomargarita magnifica. The threadlike single-cell bacterium\, commonly found in the Caribbean Mangroves\, is visible to the naked eye\, and able to grow up to 2 centimeters in length. In a recent effort\, an international team studied the “magnificent” organism using fluorescence\, x-ray\, and electron microscopy\, and fully sequenced the genome.  \n\n\n\nThrough a unique strategy of polyploidy\, along with compartmentalization of genomic material and protein synthesis in membrane-bound organelle\, the organism has been able to grow orders of magnitude over the theoretical limits for bacterial cells. The traditional view\, which has almost become dogmatic\, is that prokaryotes (bacteria and single-cell microbes) have free-floating DNA\, whereas eukaryotes (yeast and multicellular organisms) package their DNA in a nucleus. This new model organism blurs that line and offers amazing potential insights into biological evolutionary strategies\, many of which are as yet unexplored. One can only wonder at the type and number of new clinical innovations that will emerge as we continue exploring the frontiers of biology and biological complexity. \n\n\n\nRegister to receive zoom link\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJean-Marie Volland is a Scientist at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) and at Laboratory of Research in Complex Systems (LRC Systems) in Menlo Park California. He obtained his PhD at the Université des Antilles\, in the French West Indies\, studying biology and tropical ecology in the Indian Ocean and Caribbean. Jean-Marie then continued to pursue his Postdoctoral research at University of Vienna\, Austria during 2012-2017. Initially in the Monika Bright´s Lab at the Department of Limnology and Biological Oceanography studying symbiosis in chemosynthetic ecosystems\, and then also in the Silvia Bulgheresi´s Lab at the Archea Biology and Ecogenomics Division studying tropical ecology pathways of microorganisms. In 2018 Jean-Marie joined the Berkeley Lab as an affiliate Scientist to continue working on uncovering highly divergent forms of life together with LRC Systems. The story of the discovery of Thiomargarita magnifica dates back a decade ago\, when marine biologist Olivier Gros\, from the Université of Antilles\, first discovered microbial filaments on leaves buried in the mangrove of Guadeloupe. Gros lab member and microbiologist colleague Silvina González-Rizzo identified it to be in fact be one bacterium. Jean-Marie\, together with his Université of Antilles colleagues and LRC Systems set forth to methodologically study and categorize the new organism. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nShailesh Date is the CEO and Founder of Laboratory for Research in Complex Systems (LRC Systems). He is also Adjunct Professor of Biology at San Francisco State University and an Associate Adjunct Professor of Epidemiology and Biostatistics at the University of California San Francisco (UCSF). Shailesh obtained his PhD at The University of Texas\, Austin in Molecular Biology in 2004\, and completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine in 2008\, focusing on computational biology of infectious diseases. Between 2008-2015\, Shailesh worked as a scientist at Genentech\, and during a brief sabbatical in 2013\, completed the prestigious Ignite Program at the Stanford Graduate School of Business. He left Genentech in 2015 to join Global Viral (GV)\, a nonprofit organization with roots in public health research. He founded the LRC Systems in 2019\, transforming Global Viral into a new organization focused on complex systems research in a wide variety of areas. \n\n\n\nAbout Global Viral and LRC SystemsGlobal Viral was founded by Nathan Wolfe in 2007 as the Global Viral Forecasting Initiative (GVFI)\, focusing on public health and field epidemiology while supporting programs like HIV prevention run by USAID\, WHO and other similar organizations in Africa and South East Asia.In 2012\, the organization split into Metabiota\, a for-profit company that took over epidemiology and forecasting-related work\, and Global Viral\, a nonprofit that retained and concentrated on basic research.In 2019\, under the leadership of a new Chief Executive and a new board\, the organization reoriented its research towards complex systems and adopted the “Laboratory for Research in Complex Systems (LRC Systems)”\, which was initially founded as a new division within GV\, as its new name.https://www.lrc.systems \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Clinical Talks” has been renewed for yet another exciting\, innovative\, and enlightening season. This season will focus on sustainable innovations within Life Sciences\, that have the potential to contribute to a better climate friendly future for our future generations.

SUMMARY:Decreased levels of oxygen radicals cause autoimmune disease.
DESCRIPTION:Prof. Rikard Holmdahl \n\n\n\nKarolinska Institute\, Sweden \n\n\n\nRegister HERE\n\n\n\nRikard Holmdahl made his PhD (1985) and MD (1987) at Uppsala University. Professor in medical inflammation research Lund University 93-07. Professor at Karolinska Institute from 2008 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue: Hybrid meeting – Trippelrummet\, Navet and zoom \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nTitle of the seminar: Finding and understanding genes associated with common diseases; decreased levels of oxygen radicals cause autoimmune disease\n\n\n\nA long-standing challenge is to understand which genes that cause common complex diseases\, such as rheumatoid arthritis\, atherosclerosis or cancer\, and thereby understand the disease causes. However\, even though we know the human sequence and can genotype millions of individuals it is very difficult to conclusively identify the single nucleotide variants that cause the diseases. We have taken another approach through animal models. Both genetics and diseases show similarities with humans\, and we have shown that it is possible to not only identify the loci associated with disease but also exactly position the polymorphic nucleotides for common autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).  \n\n\n\nI will focus on the first gene that we cloned\, Ncf1\, which regulate immune tolerance through different levels of oxygen radicals\, or more precisely hydrogen peroxide. It is the major gene causing SLE and is important in Sjögren’s syndrome and RA and most likely most autoimmune disease. \n\n\n\nTo understand the role of Ncf1 is also complicated as peroxide seem to regulate many different pathways leading to autoimmune diseases. I will discuss how we think it regulates RA and SLE but also how it could explain our normal behaviour\, thus explaining why Ncf1 variants are common in both rat and human population. \n\n\n\nRead more about ikard Holmdahl´s research http://ki.se/en/mbb/research-division-of-medical-inflammation-research

SUMMARY:Career in Life Science - MTLS Networking Event
DESCRIPTION:The MTLS Alumni Network is a student-led initiative to connect current students and alumni of the Joint Master’s Programme in Molecular Techniques in Life Science (MTLS). The programme was created through a collaboration between Karolinska Institutet\, Stockholm University\, and KTH Royal Institute of Technology. Launched in 2015\, it has since reached a network of over 150 alumni and 60 current students.   \n\n\n\nAt the ‘Careers in Life Science – MTLS Networking Event’\, you will meet recruiters from biotech and pharma as well as representatives from diverse life science companies. It is a great opportunity for current students and graduates of MTLS to network and to look for employment post-grad\, summer internships\, and even master thesis projects. There will also be speakers from “alternative” life science career paths\, such as science communicators\, facility managers\, and policy makers. Getting to engage with this unique “human library” is sure to inspire you if what you are looking for is an unconventional career path in the life sciences!  \n\n\n\nAgenda \n\n\n\n14:00-17:00 Networking\, mingle with recruiters and representatives\, and “human library” speakers  \n\n\n\n15:00-16:00 Zoom Session with Illumina and Randstad in Water   \n\n\n\nRead more about the program
