Getting to the “ Heart ” of Cardiometabolic Health Disparities
NIH Director ’ s Wednesday Afternoon Lecture Series
Annual Robert S. Gordon Jr. Lecture
Cardiometabolic diseases, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and chronic kidney disease, are exceedingly common and are collectively considered the leading causes of death worldwide. In this lecture, Dr. Lisa Cooper will describe the current state of cardiometabolic health disparities among adults in the United States. She will then discuss how interventions to reduce cardiometabolic health disparities are designed, implemented, and evaluated, and how these interventions address contributors to disparities at multiple levels...

IIG Seminar - IL-15-induced bystander T cell activation in human viral disease.
Dr. Eui-Cheol Shin investigates mechanisms of immunopathogenesis, immunosenescence, T-cell exhaustion, and human immune monitoring. Dr. Shin and his team have extensively demonstrated the pathological significance of bystander T cell activation in human disease by studying T cell responses in patients infected with viral diseases. His group has found that pre-existing bystander memory CD8+ T cells are unexpectedly activated by cytokines (e.g., IL-15) regardless of their antigen specificity, causing liver cell damage through NKG2D-mediated cytotoxicity. In characterizing IL-15-responsive bystander T cells in the liver micro...

IIG Seminar - MHC-II heterozygosity limits T1D susceptibility through non-cognate negative selection.
The ability of T cells to distinguish highly similar peptide ligands bound to a specific class of MHC proteins is the underlying basis for a functioning adaptive immune system. Why TCRs - which are structurally very similar to antibodies - only bind MHC proteins is poorly understood. The Huseby lab is focused on the molecular and cellular pathways that govern the generation, maintenance and function of a self-tolerant T cell repertoire and the autoimmune consequences of self-tolerance failure. To understand how T cell repertoires develop and how defects in the process lead to autoimmune disease, Dr. Huseby ’ s group has ...

IIG Seminar - Heterologous Immunity: How Infection History affects Inflammatory Diseases
Our understanding of host-pathogen interaction is primarily derived from studying how the immune system protects us from a single pathogen. In contrast, it is largely unknown how this response alters the body ’ s ability to respond to a second infectious agent or the susceptibility to autoimmunity or cancer. Nicole Joller and her group investigate the long-term effects of pathogenic challenges on future responses. Currently, they are focusing on changes in the regulatory compartment of the adaptive immune system. The Joller laboratory employs in-vivo animal models, cellular assays and genome-scale approaches to investiga...

IIG Seminar - Multimodal decoding of liver regeneration and repair
Neil Henderson, Professor of Tissue Repair and Regeneration at the University of Edinburgh, is an academic hepatologist with an international profile in defining cellular interactions and molecular pathways driving organ fibrosis. Organ fibrosis (scarring) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, and as yet there are no effective anti-fibrotic treatments. Dr. Henderson is primarily interested in the cellular and molecular mechanisms that drive organ fibrosis, and the pathways which are responsible for efficient wound healing and healthy tissue regeneration following injury. Dr. Henderson and his group have de...
