Gianni LITI invites: Pr Patrick CAI - PC, Manchester "Engineering and Safeguarding Synthetic Genomes" Abstract: Over the last 12 years, my lab has been building synthetic yeast chromosomes from scratch. These synthetic genomes are engineered to allow genome-wide directed evolution with a system call SCRaMbLE (Synthetic Chromosome Recombination and Modification by LoxP-Mediated Evolution). […]
Simona SACCANI invites: Sestina FALCONE - Sorbonne Université UMRS974-Inserm-Institut de Myologie "Identification of CaVβ1 subunits and their role in the neuromuscular system from embryo to aging" Abstract: Voltage-gated Ca2+ channels (VGCCs) are regulated by four CaVβ subunits (CaVβ1-CaVβ4), each showing specific expression patterns in excitable cells. While primarily known for regulating VGCC function, CaVβ […]
Jae LI - Senior product manager in BGI tech solutions, spatial omics service line responsible "Stereo-seq: Spatial Transcriptomics Solution" Abstract: In this technical seminar, we will introduce BGI's cutting-edge spatial transcriptomics technology — Stereo-seq, and comprehensive spatial analysis solutions compatible with both FF (Fresh Frozen) and FFPE (Formalin-Fixed, Paraffin-Embedded) samples.
