Marathons for T Cells: How They Keep on Killing
This WALS talk is jointly sponsored with the IIG. Dr. Griffiths is a Wellcome Trust Principal Research Fellow and a professor of immunology and cell biology at Cambridge Institute for Medical Research. For this lecture, Dr. Griffiths will focus on the cell biology that underlies the remarkable ability of cytotoxic T lymphocytes to act as serial killers, with individual cells providing sustained killing in response to cancer or virally infected targets. She will describe a screen that picked up genes that are required for sustained killing and revealed an unexpected role for mitochondria as homestatic regulators of CTL kill...

By the end of this century, Spring pollen emissions could begin 40 days earlier.
By the end of this century, Spring pollen emissions could begin 40 days earlier, making the allergy season even longer and more intense. People who have allergies could see the season last an additional 19 days, before high pollen counts subside. Scientists developed a model that examines 15 of the ...This is an NSF Multimedia Gallery item. (Source: NSF Multimedia Gallery)

Demystifying Medicine: Defining Genes Underlying Mendelian Immunological Disorders Leads To Precision Medicine Interventions
Jointly sponsored by FAES and NIH, the Demystifying Medicine course aims to bridge exciting developments in medicine with advances in the basic biological and engineering sciences. When possible, a live patient introduces the course topic by discussing their disease, followed by a physician scientist who describes clinical aspects of the disease including therapy and challenges, followed by bench scientist who describes what we know and don't know regarding mechanism. The course is designed to excite as well as inform medical and Ph.D. students, fellows, basic and physician scientists, and program planners.For more informa...

Psoriasis as a Model to Study Inflammation and Cardiometabolic Diseases in Humans
NIH Director's Seminar Series Inflammation is critical to atherosclerosis initiation, progression and complications. The goal of The Laboratory of Inflammation and Cardiometabolic Diseases, NHLBI, is to understand how chronic systemic inflammation drives development of cardiometabolic diseases in humans. Dr. Mehta ’ s research program has utilized psoriasis, a chronic inflammatory skin disease, as a model to probe inflammatory, lipid and metabolic pathways associated with atherosclerosis progression. In 2012, Dr. Mehta founded the Psoriasis Atherosclerosis Cardiometabolic Initiative (PACI) at the NHLBI Intramural Program...

New Insights into Coronavirus Emergence, Pathogenesis and Control
Speaker Dr. Ralph Baric is the William R. Kenan, Jr. Distinguished Professor in the Department of Epidemiology and Professor in the Department of Microbiology and Immunology. He has spent the past three decades as a world leader in the study of coronaviruses and is responsible for UNC-Chapel Hill ’ s world leadership in coronavirus research. For these past three decades, Dr. Baric has warned that the emerging coronaviruses represent a significant and ongoing global health threat, particularly because they can jump, without warning, from animals into the human population, and they tend to spread rapidly.For more informati...

Reading Between the Tweets: Social Technologies for Predicting and Changing Health Behavior
This talk is part of the Integrative Medicine Research Lecture Series presented by the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health. Social technologies — for example, social media, mobile apps, internet searching, and wearable sensors — and the data they produce are increasingly being used as tools in public health research and practice. More than half of the world (4.5 billion people) is using social media sites to create, share, and discuss content. Social media users are not just sharing trivial facts, but publicly telling the world personal things about their thoughts, behaviors, and clinical diagnos...
