SUMMARY:Islet Study Group 2023
DESCRIPTION:This international meeting will be held on the University of British Columbia campus in the Life Sciences Institute. This is the first time the meeting is being held outside of Europe. Over 30 international islet scientists have confirmed they will be presenting at ISG2023.  We invite trainees to submit an abstract to present a poster to the anticipated over 200 delegates. \n\nDates: Monday\, June 19 – Wednesday\, June 21\, 2023\nRegistration: There is a discounted registration fee of $300 for postdocs and graduate students until mid April.\nOn-campus housing in shared dorms available for $60/night from June 18-22 (4 nights). Delegates  can spend an extra day exploring the city. The dates of the ISG 2023 meeting are ahead of the big American Diabetes Association meeting happening in San Diego Jun 23-26\nMeeting website | Abstract Submission | UBC Accommodations

SUMMARY:Next-Generation RNA Vaccines & Therapies
DESCRIPTION:RNA vaccines have enabled a rapid and effective response to the global COVID-19 pandemic. However\, there are still major challenges in the field\, including enhancing the duration of immunity and minimizing the side effects associated with these vaccines. We will address strategies to overcome these challenges\, and explore future applications of RNA medicines.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Anna Blakney is an Assistant Professor in the Michael Smith Laboratories and School of Biomedical Engineering at UBC. She received her Bachelor of Science in Chemical & Biological Engineering from the University of Colorado at Boulder\, and her PhD in Bioengineering from the University of Washington. She completed a postdoctoral fellowship at Imperial College London on the development of molecular and biomaterial engineering strategies for delivery of self-amplifying RNA. Her lab uses bioengineering\, molecular biology and immunology approaches to develop the next generation of RNA vaccines and therapies. She is also a passionate science communicator and runs a TikTok channel dedicated to educating the public about RNA biotechnology\, which now has >250\,000 followers and >18M views.
