SUMMARY:Vikram Paralkar\, M.D. (University of Pennsylvania) - Hybrid Epigenetics Monthly Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Vikram Paralkar\, M.D.\nAssistant Professor of Medicine\nUniversity of Pennsylvania\nThe Paralkar Lab \nPlease join us on Thursday\, November 7\, 2024\, for a Special Edition Monthly Seminar featuring Dr. Vikram Paralkar. Dr. Paralkar is an Assistant Professor of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania.  This event will take place in Smilow 10-146 and on zoom from 4PM – 5PM. \n\n\n\n\nResearch in the Paralkar Lab spans the spectrum from human patient sample studies and mouse models to cutting-edge molecular biology tools\, high-throughput sequencing approaches\, and novel computational algorithms\, all with the goal of gaining insight into how the transcription of coding genes and noncoding ribosomal DNA genes is regulated in hematopoietic stem cells\, myeloid progenitors\, and in leukemia.

SUMMARY:Catherine J. Peña\, Ph.D. (Princeton University) - Hybrid Epigenetics Monthly Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Catherine J. Peña\, Ph.D.\nAssistant Professor\nPrinceton Neuroscience Institute\nPrinceton University\nThe Peña Lab \nPlease join us on Thursday\, January 9\, 2025\, as we welcome Catherine J. Peña\, Ph.D.\, Assistant Professor at Princeton University. This event will take place in Smilow 9-146 and on zoom from 4PM – 5PM. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe broad goal of the Peña Lab is to understand mechanistically how early life experiences are encoded and maintained into adulthood to have long-lasting impact on behavior. The lab is currently focused on understanding how early life stress increases sensitivity to subsequent stress. This research is translationally motivated by the robust clinical finding that child maltreatment and other forms of early life stress increase the lifetime risk of depression and other mood\, anxiety\, and drug disorders. Studies in humans and animals suggest that early life stress sensitizes individuals to stress later in life\, leading to a first appearance or synergistic worsening of depression-like symptoms after additional stress.

SUMMARY:H. Courtney Hodges\, Ph.D. (Baylor University) - Hybrid Epigenetics Monthly Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:H. Courtney Hodges\, Ph.D.\nAssociate Professor\nDepartment of Molecular and Cellular Biology\nBaylor College of Medicine\nThe Hodges Lab \nPlease join us on Thursday\, February 6\, 2025\, as we welcome H. Courtney Hodges\, Ph.D.\, Associate Professor at Baylor College of Medicine. Dr. Hodges will give a talk titled “Disordered interaction modules that impart specificity for chromatin and transcription.” Immediately following Dr. Hodges\, we will hear from Krista Budinich\, Graduate Student in the Wan Lab\, who will give a talk titled\, “RNA enhances the function of oncogenic transcriptional condensates formed by a mutant chromatin reader.” This event will take place in Smilow 9-146 and on zoom from 4PM – 5PM. \nAbout the H. Courtney Hodges\, Ph.D. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nResearch in the Hodges lab focuses on gene regulation in cancer and normal cells. We use interdisciplinary approaches\, including epigenomics\, live-cell imaging\, and chemical biology\, to reveal new mechanisms related to chromatin and transcription. We are especially excited by emerging therapeutics related to cancer epigenetics and other areas with translational impact.

SUMMARY:Diana Hargreaves\, Ph.D. (Salk Institute) - Hybrid Epigenetics Monthly Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Diana Hargreaves\, Ph.D.\nAssociate Professor\nSalk Institute\nThe Hargreaves Lab \nPlease join us on Thursday\, March 6\, 2025\, as we welcome Diana Hargreaves\, Ph.D.\, Associate Professor at the Salk Institute. This event will take place in Smilow 9-146 and on zoom from 4PM – 5PM. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Hargreaves Lab is interested in epigenetic regulation mediated by the BAF chromatin remodeling complex. Chromatin remodeling complexes are known to create DNA accessibility through hydrolysis of ATP to allow binding of transcription and repair factors to DNA. However\, these large multi-subunit complexes also contain many other proteins of unknown function that are critical for development and highly mutated in human disease. Our goal is to use a combination of biochemical and epigenomic assays to understand the function of these complexes during normal cellular differentiation and the mechanistic basis for diseases caused by mutations in BAF complex subunits. We are focusing on cellular models of inflammation\, cancer\, and pluripotency. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Junyue Cao\, Ph.D. (Rockefeller University) - Hybrid Epigenetics Monthly Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Junyue Cao\, Ph.D.\nFisher Center Foundation Assistant Professor\nThe Rockefeller University\nThe Cao Lab \nPlease join us on Thursday\, June 5\, 2025\, as we welcome Junyue Cao\, Ph.D.\, Assistant Professor at the Rockefeller University. This event will take place in Smilow 9-146 and on zoom from 4PM – 5PM. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDespite active cell proliferation\, differentiation and apoptosis\, mammalian organs maintain their size and function\, indicative of a delicately balanced program that regulates cell population dynamics. Dysregulation of this homeostasis results in imbalances that can give rise to aging\, and aging-related diseases(e.g.\, neurodegenerative disorders and cancer). The central vision of the Cao Lab is to investigate how does a cell population maintain homeostasis and how it is disrupted in aging and diseases. Our primary approach is to develop state-of-the-art genomic techniques to profile and perturb cell dynamics at single-cell resolution and dissecting its connection with internal transcriptome state and external cell-cell interactions. Our long-term goal is to leverage this knowledge to develop cell-type-specific engineering tools to enhance cell population robustness or restore cell population homeostasis. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
