Biomedical Data Science Seminar Series, Smilow Center for Translational Research - Smilow Rubenstein Auditorium & Commons Title: Molecular Mechanisms of Evolutionary Innovation This week hosted by IBIAbstract: Where do genes come from? All genomes contain genes whose sequences appear unique to a given species or lineage to the exclusion of all others. These “orphan” genes cannot … Continue reading Anne-Ruxandra Carvunis, PhD, Assistant Professor, University of Pittsburgh

Biomedical Data Science Seminar Series, BRB Gaulton Auditorium Title: Treatment Effect Analysis with Quantitative Susceptibility Maps in Multiple Sclerosis Lesions This week hosted by PennSIVE Abstract Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory disease of the central nervous system characterized by lesions in the brain and spinal cord.  Magnetic resonance images (MRI) are sensitive to these lesions. … Continue reading Elizabeth Sweeney, PhD, Assistant Professor of Biostatistics, University of Pennsylvania

Biomedical Data Science Seminar Series, BRB Gaulton Auditorium Title: Multiscale Neurogenomics : Mapping Gene Dosage Disorders Across Phenotypic Layers This week hosted by the Center for AI and Data Science for Integrated Diagnostics (AI2D) - Theodore Satterthwaite, PhD Abstract Gene dosage disorders (GDDs) – including aneuploidies and sub-chromosomal copy number variations (CNVs) – offer powerful objective … Continue reading Armin Raznahan, MD, PhD, NIH, Chief of the Section on Developmental Neurogenomics (SDN)

Biomedical Data Science Seminar Series, BRB Gaulton Auditorium Title: Imaging the transcriptome: Creating tissue atlases with MERFISH This week hosted by Penn Institute for Biomedical Informatics (IBI) - Mingyao Li, PhDAbstract The behavior of tissues arises from the complex interactions of a diversity of cell types and states, whose intricate spatial organization within tissues shapes the interactions … Continue reading Jeffrey Mofffitt, PhD, Assistant Professor of Microbiology, Harvard Medical School

Biomedical Data Science Seminar Series, BRB Gaulton Auditorium Title: Untangling genetic puzzles with spatial genome imaging This week hosted by IBI, invited by Golnaz VahediAbstract Over the past decade, advances in sequencing based methods have helped advance our understanding of genome organization and function from a 1D view into a new field of 3D genome organization, … Continue reading Alistair Boettiger, PhD,  Assistant Professor in the Department of Developmental Biology at the Stanford University School of Medicine

Biomedical Research Building - BRB Gaulton Auditorium and Lobby  Title: Machine Learning in Neuroimaging at the AIBIL Laboratory: Applications to Clinical Neuroscience and to Neurooncology This week hosted by AI2DAbstract Machine learning has increasingly been adopted in neuroimaging studies, over the past 20 years. This talk will review our group’s work on applications of machine learning … Continue reading Christos Davatzikos, PhD, Professor, Radiology, Electrical and Systems Engineering, Director, Center For AI And Data Science For Integrated Diagnostics (AI2D), Director, Artificial Intelligence in Biomedical Imaging Laboratory (AIBIL), University of Pennsylvania
