presents, "Isoform regulation in the developing human brain informs mechanisms of neuropsychiatric disorders" Hosted by:  Dr. Joe Dougherty In-person only:  Connor Auditorium (FLTC) Talk abstract:  Large-scale genetic studies have now identified hundreds of common and rare variants associated with neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders. However, interpretation of the biological functional impact and pathogenicity of these variants remains a critical obstacle hindering clinical translation. To address this challenge, we have developed a large-scale functional genomic atlas of human brain development, integrating genotype…

presents, "Supporting Equity in Precision Pediatrics" Hosted by:  Dr. Tim Schedl and Julie Choi (Milbrandt & Jin labs) In-person only:  Connor Auditorium (FLTC) Talk abstract: Sequencing-based genomic NBS can significantly expand NBS to numerous rare genetic diseases with a single common platform and provide synergies with traditional newborn screening and across conditions to decrease the cost/condition for screening and de-risk the investment across diseases/companies providing/developing treatments for rare genetic diseases.  Pilot studies of genomic NBS will improve timely access to…

presents, "Cell Polarity and Chemical Gradient tracking in Yeast" Hosted by:  Dr. Susan Dutcher In-person only:  Connor Auditorium (FLTC) Talk abstract: How cells orient polarity in response to chemical gradients is a fundamental but poorly understood process. We use the pheromone-tracking ability of mating yeast as a model to dissect basic principles.
