SUMMARY:[The Svedberg] - Studying microRNA functions at the single-cell level
DESCRIPTION:MicroRNAs are gene regulatory molecules that play important roles in numerous biological processes including human health. The function of a given microRNA is defined by its selection of target transcripts\, yet current state-of-the-art experimental methods to identify microRNA targets are laborious and require millions of cells – hampering the entry of the microRNA field into the single-cell era. We have overcome these limitations by fusing the microRNA effector protein Argonaute2 to the RNA editing domain of ADAR2\, allowing for the first time the detection of microRNA targets transcriptome-wide in single cells. Our agoTRIBE method reports functional microRNA targets which are additionally supported by evolutionary sequence conservation. As a proof-of-principle\, we study microRNA interactions in single cells\, and find substantial differential targeting across the cell cycle. In addition to presenting this single-cell project\, I will talk about our recent efforts to sequence RNA fragments from ancient animal samples that are preserved in the Siberian permafrost. \n\n\n\nMarc Friedländer is an associate professor at Stockholm University\, Department of Molecular Biosciences. He graduated from his master’s thesis under the supervision of Anders Krogh in Copenhagen and his PhD in the group of Nikolaus Rajewsky in Berlin. He founded his own lab in Stockholm with funding from a SciLifeLab Fellowship and an ERC starting grant. His team is balanced between wet-lab and dry-lab biologists\, and they develop and apply experimental and computational methods to understand gene regulation – with particular emphasis on microRNAs. His lab has studied these molecules in the context of space exposure (a collaboration with NASA); in ancient animal samples preserved in permafrost; and in mammalian single cells. \n\n\n\nWebpage: www.friedlanderlab.org

SUMMARY:SciLifeLab Uppsala PhD&Postdoc Online Seminar Series - Immunology Theme
DESCRIPTION:Welcome back to the SciLifeLab Uppsala PhD&Postdoc seminar series!\n\nThis seminar will take place on Tuesday November 8th from 11h to 11:50h on Zoom (https://uu-se.zoom.us/j/66489618700)\n\nFor this occasion the speakers will be:\n\n1. Tiarne van de Walle\, PhD Student at Anna Dimberg and Magnus Essand’s Labs (Vascular Biology & Cancer Immunotherapy)\, Dept. of Immunology\, Genetics and Pathology\, Uppsala University\n\nTitle: Shining the LIGHT on Glioblastoma\n\nSummary:\nGlioblastoma is the most aggressive primary brain cancer and is resistant to immunotherapy\, which is largely due to poor T cell infiltration. Here\, we screened a panel of lymphoneogenic cytokines\, from which we selected LIGHT/TNFSF14 as the most promising candidate for treatment of glioma. Then\, we utilized a brain endothelial cell-targeted vector to express LIGHT on the glioma vasculature. Systemic treatment with this novel therapeutic agent resulted in prolonged survival\, and promoted efficient T cell infiltration and anti-tumour immune responses. As such\, our work demonstrates that tailoring the vascular phenotype through vessel-targeted expression of LIGHT is a promising therapeutic strategy\, which has broader implications for treatment of other immunotherapy-resistant cancers.\n\n \n\n\n2. Miguel Vizoso Patiñoi\, Researcher at Mia Phillipson’s Lab (Immunology)\, Dept. of Medical Cell Biology\, Uppsala University\n\nTitle: Uncovering the role of the innate immune cells in vascular remodeling during menstruation and associated pathologies\n\nSummary:\nMore than 10% of women worldwide suffer from abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB). Current standardized therapies for AUB include ovulation blockade and hysterectomy\, which both are highly aggressive and interfere with fertility. Thus\, there is an unmet clinical need for more effective and non-invasive treatments. The scarcity of efficient therapies is at least partly due to the lack of reproductive experimental models\, as well as that the underlying mechanisms resulting in AUB are largely unknown. However\, innate immune cells have been documented to be actively recruited to the endometrium during physiological menstrual cycle and pregnancy. Based on our recent discoveries of a pro-angiogenic subpopulation of neutrophils\, in addition to novel functions of macrophages important for blood-vessel maturation\, I will in this project\, define the contribution of innate immune cells in the vascular phenotype of AUB. The main goals addressed by 2 work packages (WPs) are:\n\n\nTo develop the first humanized murine uterus to characterize how human endometrial epithelial cells (hEECs) participate of the vascular network remodeling in vivo. To this end\, EECs from healthy and AUB donors will be orthotopically transplanted in immunocompromised mice and its impact on vasculature remodeling will be measurable in real time by intravital microscopy upon menstrual cycle induction. Samples will be also submitted for scRNAseq to reveal the transcriptomic networks connecting the epithelium (human-origin) and stroma/endothelium (murine-origin) compartments at different time points of the menstrual cycle.\nTo assess whether the role of the innate immune cells in endometrial angiogenesis and vascular pruning differs depending on their interaction with healthy or pathogenic (AUB) derived hEECs.\n\nThus\, this project will provide a novel model to study endometrial human physiology in vivo\, to enable the discovery of new mechanisms involved in AUB. Generated insights will then be used to pursue opportunities to translate the findings into clinical practice and provide non-invasive therapies to treat AUB disorders.

The goal of this workshop is to bring together all the researchers from Sweden interested in biomolecular simulations and to provide an opportunity to junior researchers in the field to present their work. This will be a single day event with some talks by other researchers from abroad and ample opportunities for discussion and interactions among the people in the field. \n\n\n\nConfirmed speakers\n\n\n\nSimon Olsson\, Chalmers\, GothenburgMilosz Wieczor\, IRB BarcelonaMercedes Alfonso-Prieto\, Forschungszentrum Jülich\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProgram and abstracts are collapsible items – click to expand. \n\n\n\nProgram\n09:30Morning Coffee\, MingleInghesalen\, Karolinska Institutet09:55Welcome from organizersOrganizing Committee10:00Multiscale simulations to study proton transfer: from enzymes to membrane proteinsMercedes Alfonso-Prieto\, Forschungszentrum Jülich\, Germany10:40Exploring the selectivity profile of plant UDP dependent glycosyl transferases (UGTs) by computational and experimental studiesJunhao Li\, Uppsala University11:00Multi-scale Modeling of Axonal Injury (coupling of finite element analysis with molecular dynamics simulations)Maryam Majdolhosseini\, KTH Royal Institute of Technology11:20Coffee Break11:40A Machine-Learned Atomistic Force Field for Nucleic AcidsMiłosz Wieczór\, IRB Barcelona12:20Combining evolution and physics with coevolution-powered machine learningDarko Mitrovic\, KTH Royal Institute of Technology12:40Lipid-ethanol mixtures for topical drug delivery applications: A molecular dynamics and NMR studyAmanda Quinones Vallin\, Stockholm University13:00Lunch14:00Machine learning to reconcile experiment and simulationSimon Olsson\, Chalmers University of Technology14:40Effective Molecular Dynamics from Neural-Network Based Structure Prediction ModelsAlexander Jussupow\, Stockholm University15:00Opportunities and Challenges in GPCR SBDD: Finding the Sweet SpotsPierre Matricon\, Sosei Heptares15:20Wrap up\, Thank youOrganizing Committee\n\n\n\n\nMultiscale simulations to study proton transfer: from enzymes to membrane proteins\nMercedes Alfonso-Prieto\, Assistant Professor\, Forschungszentrum Jülich\, Germany \n\n\n\nProton transfer (PT) is one the most common processes in biology. Studying PT at the molecular level is a challenging task\, due to the intrinsic complexity of proteins\, including their functional dynamics and the presence of several titratable residues. Therefore\, combination of experimental and computational techniques is needed to obtain a more comprehensive picture. Recent methodological and software advancements have enabled the efficient application of quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) simulations to (large) biological systems. This multiscale approach allows treating the region of the protein where PT takes place at the QM level\, while including the effect of the rest of the protein and its environment at the MM level. In this talk\, I will show some examples of QM/MM simulations applied to PT processes in different systems\, from enzymes to membrane proteins. Such hybrid simulations have provided atomistic insights complementary to experiments. \n\n\n\n\nA Machine-Learned Atomistic Force Field for Nucleic Acids\nMiłosz Wieczór\, Postdoctoral fellow\, IRB Barcelona \n\n\n\nWe present a new paradigm for the parametrization of nonbonded interactions in molecular force fields directly from quantum chemical data. The proposed machine-learned force field (ML-FF) accurately reproduces well-validated quantum chemical interaction energies\, as well as allows for the systematic incorporation of experimental data such as measured affinity constants. Contrary to many recently published general ML-FFs\, our force field ensures stability in molecular dynamics simulations thanks to a combination of regularization and active learning\, and permits gradual upgrades should issues arise in previously untested systems. Meanwhile\, a simple embedding scheme allows the parameters learned from minimal methyl-nucleobase systems to be employed in simulations of large biomacromolecules at virtually no computational overhead. We also present several key directions for the future evolution of our force field\, both in terms of accuracy and applicability. \n\n\n\n\nMachine learning to reconcile experiment and simulation\nSimon Olsson\, Assistant Professor\, Chalmers University of Technology \n\n\n\nLong-time-scale and enhanced sampling molecular dynamics simulations reveal the approximations of classical molecular dynamics force fields disagreeing with experimental data. However\, under ideal conditions\, experiments and simulations observe the same process — consequently\, by optimally balancing experimental and simulation data\, we may build models extracting helpful information from both. In this talk\, I will overview efforts in this direction and talk about Augmented Markov models\, and their recent extension dynamic Augmented Markov models. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration

Cecilia Clemens. \n\n\n\nThe last years have seen an immense increase in high-throughput and high-resolution technologies for experimental observation as well as high-performance techniques to simulate molecular systems at a microscopic level\, resulting in vast and ever-increasing amounts of high-dimensional data. However\, experiments provide only a partial view of the molecular processes and are limited in their temporal and spatial resolution. On the other hand\, simulations are still not able to completely characterize large and/or complex molecular processes over long timescales\, thus leaving significant gaps in our ability to study these processes at a physically relevant scale. We present our efforts to bridge these gaps\, by combining statistical physics with state-of-the-art machine-learning methods to design optimal coarse models for complex macromolecular systems. We derive simplified molecular models to reproduce the essential information contained both in microscopic simulation and experimental measurements. \n\n\n\n\nSamuli Ripatti\nGenetic variation and risk of common diseases over the life course. Samuli Ripatti. \n\n\n\nPast 15 years have seen tremendous success in identifying genetic loci associated with common diseases and traits. Much of the current activities focus on strategies for inferring causal variants and genes driving these associations and on the potential translational opportunities arising from the genetic discoveries. I will highlight some of the opportunities\, risks and gaps in our knowledge related to both causal inference and genetic prediction and translation.  I will provide examples from FinnGen study (www.finngen.fi) consisting of genome wide profiles and longitudinal health registry data for  half a million Finns and from a network on biobanks and machine learning/AI -methods developers in INTERVENE Consortium (https://www.interveneproject.eu). \n\n\n\n\nJohan Bengtsson-Palme\nPredicting the disease threats of the future. Johan Bengtsson-Palme \n\n\n\nOur inability to restrain covid-19 to remain a local disease outbreak highlighted an important vulnerability in our preparedness for new infectious diseases – our inability to predict what the future disease agents might look like. This inability makes it impossible to preemptively monitor for potential future pathogens and makes it harder to quickly adapt existing disease surveillance to novel outbreaks. There is no guarantee that the next major outbreak will be viral – with increasing antibiotic resistance\, multidrug-resistant bacteria may very well be the next pandemic. In this talk\, I will discuss how we can predict which genes to look for to find future pathogens before they become widespread in clinics or among the general population\, both in terms of genes responsible for pathogenicity and in terms of antibiotic resistance genes. I will also outline how surveillance for antimicrobial resistance could be adapted to also include markers for pathogenicity and thus allow us to prevent or constrain disease outbreaks early. \n\n\n\n\nFredrik Edfors\nHarnessing the promise of next-generation plasma profiling for pan-cancer diagnostics. Fredrik Edfors \n\n\n\nCancer is one of our biggest worldwide health problems\, causing almost 10 million deaths annually. Despite significant advancements in cancer therapy over the past three decades\, diagnosis and treatment still have a great deal of opportunity for improvement.  \n\n\n\nHere\, a total of 12 prevalent cancer types represented by more than 1\,400 cancer patients’ plasma profiles of 1\,463 proteins were evaluated in trace amounts of blood plasma taken at the time of diagnosis and prior to treatment. A group of proteins linked to each of the examined malignancies was found using ML-based disease prediction models. This precision medicine strategy has the potential to benefit from advances in proteomics and precision and personalized medicine. \n\n\n\n\nTobias Andermann\nBig data approaches for assessing biodiversity value and potential. Tobias Andermann \n\n\n\nOur human societies worldwide are having a profound negative impact on the natural world surrounding us\, leading to experts declaring the current biodiversity crisis. However\, to date it is difficult if not impossible to actually quantify the magnitude of our impact on biodiversity. This is largely due to the overwhelming complexity of biodiversity\, which is not easily summarized and reduced into manageable metrics. Yet\, solving this task is necessary and is arguably one of the biggest and most urgent contemporary challenges for the biological research community. In this talk I will discuss the utility of environmental DNA (eDNA) sequencing as a tool for gathering comprehensive biodiversity data in the field. I will touch upon the challenges and possibilities regarding the application of eDNA data for this purpose\, in particular how these data can be applied to train AI models with the ability to model biodiversity and simulate changes thereof. \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nScientific Committee\n\n\n\nTuuli Lappalainen\, chair and DDLS Steering group member\, Clemens Wittenbecher\, DDLS Fellow\, Simon Olsson\, WASP and Johan Rung\, Data Centre.  \n\n\n\nOrganizing Committee\n\n\n\nProject leader Erika Erkstam\, Operations office\, and the DDLS support team Heidi T Persson\, Ulrika Wallenquist\, Titti Ekegren.

However\, if you accept a position at the workshop and do not participate (no-show) you will be invoiced 2\,000 SEK. \n\n\n\n*Please note that NBIS cannot invoice individuals \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCourse description\n\n\n\nOne of the key principles of proper scientific procedure is the act of repeating an experiment or analysis and being able to reach similar conclusions. Published research based on computational analysis\, e.g. bioinformatics or computational biology\, have often suffered from incomplete method descriptions (e.g. list of used software versions); unavailable raw data; and incomplete\, undocumented and/or unavailable code. This essentially prevents any possibility of attempting to reproduce the results of such studies. The term “reproducible research” has been used to describe the idea that a scientific publication based on computational analysis should be distributed along with all the raw data and metadata used in the study\, all the code and/or computational notebooks needed to produce results from the raw data\, and the computational environment or a complete description thereof. \n\n\n\nReproducible research not only leads to proper scientific conduct but also provides other researchers the access to build upon previous work. Most importantly\, the person setting up a reproducible research project will quickly realize the immediate personal benefits: an organized and structured way of working. The person that most often has to reproduce your own analysis is your future self! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCourse content\n\n\n\nTopics covered \n\n\n\nGood practices for data analysisVersion control and collaborative code developmentPackage and environment managementWorkflow managementDocumentation and reportingContainerized computational environments\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLearning outcomes \n\n\n\nBy the end of the course the student will be able to: \n\n\n\nOrganize and structure computational projectsTrack changes and collaborate on code using GitInstall packages and manage software environments using CondaStructure computational steps into workflows with Snakemake and NextflowCreate automated reports and document their analyses with RMarkdown and JupyterPackage and distribute computational environments using Docker and Singularity\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEntry requirements\n\n\n\nRequired for being able to follow the course and to complete computer exercises: \n\n\n\nFamiliarity with using the terminal (e.g. be familiar with commands such as ls\, cd\, touch\, mkdir\, pwd\, wget\, man\, etc.)A computer with a webcamYou will be asked to install the video conferencing software zoom (https://zoom.us/) to be able to participate in the courseSome knowledge in R and/or python is beneficial but not strictly required\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSelection criteria\n\n\n\nThe course can accommodate 20 participants. Selection criteria include correct entry requirements\, motivation to attend the course as well as gender and geographical balance. Academic affiliated registrants are prioritized prior to participants from the industry.  \n\n\n\nPlease note that NBIS training events do not provide any formal university credits. The training content is estimated to correspond to a certain number of credits\, however the estimated credits are just guidelines. If formal credits are crucial\, the student needs to confer with the home department before submitting a course application in order to establish whether the course is valid for formal credits or not.

SUMMARY:FAIRPoints-Introducing Community Guidelines for Sharing Dataset Quality Information
DESCRIPTION:Location: Online via Zoom \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Event in your Time Zone \n\n\n\nSpeaker: Dr.Ge Peng \n\n\n\nKnowledge about the quality of data and associated metadata\, software\, workflows and computing environment is important to establish the trustworthiness of individual datasets\, support informed decisions on their (re)use\, and is an essential part of the diverse data and information distribution ecosystem that supports open-source science. However\, quality information\, being difficult to curate and often context-specific\, is currently not readily available for sharing within and across disciplines. \n\n\n\nTo help address this challenge\, and to promote the creation and (re)use of freely and openly shared dataset quality information\, members of multiple\, international groups collaborating with domain experts have undertaken the development of community guidelines with practical recommendations for the Earth science community. The guidelines follow the guiding principles of being findable\, accessible\, interoperable\, and reusable (FAIR). \n\n\n\nThe FAIR dataset quality information guidelines are intended to help stakeholders\, such as scientific data centers\, digital data repositories\, and producers\, publishers\, stewards and managers of data\, to achieve the following: i) capture\, describe\, and represent quality information of their datasets in a manner that is consistent with the FAIR guiding principles; ii) allow for the maximum discovery\, trust\, sharing\, and reuse of their datasets; and iii) enable international access to and integration of dataset quality information. \n\n\n\nBio: \n\n\n\nDr.Ge Peng is currently a Senior principal research scientist from the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH)\, supporting the NASA Interagency Implementation and Advanced Concepts Team (IMPACT) Project. With a Ph.D. in meteorology and a primary research focus on exploring the variability of essential climate variables of Earth atmosphere\, ocean\, and cryosphere\, she has worked with various types of Earth observations and derived data products. She has first-hand experience of the challenges in finding and obtaining data quality information\, which led her to find ways to systematically evaluate data quality as well as document and share quality information. Dr. Peng is a strong advocate of promoting scientific data stewardship and open science. She has volunteered for organizations that strive to minimize the barrier to data and information sharing\, such as the Earth System Science Data (ESSD) Journal\, the World Meteorological Organization (WMO)\, and the Earth Science Information Partners (ESIP). Dr. Peng is a leading author of several data stewardship assessment models for national and international Earth science organizations and has published a number of peer-reviewed papers on trends and variability of climate data\, research data management and stewardship. \n\n\n\n \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\, and SciLifeLab Data Centre.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister here\n\n\n\nSign up for future events here \n\n\n\nTwitter: @FAIR_Points
