SUMMARY:Crafting Visual Explanations of Complex Science: Philosophy and Practice
DESCRIPTION:This month\, Martin Krzywinski\, Canada’s Michael Smith Genome Sciences Centre will present “Crafting Visual Explanations of Complex Science: Philosophy and Practice.” \nYou’ll learn practical guidelines for crafting visual explanations of your science: form follows function\, treat everything as data\, seek crispness\, fight the shackles of convention\, and ask yourself “Is this good for the reader or for me?”. To illustrate these ideas concretely\, Martin will take you through the process of redesigning figures\, posters and graphical abstracts — submitted by you or from past case studies. \nSubmit your work to see this process applied to graphics that are directly relevant to you: https://bit.ly/matrix-n \nSee event poster for more details \n  \nZoom link if unable to attend in person: https://ubc.zoom.us/j/5936706150?pwd=bWFoeDNGMkk2ZVNOQk9FTFZIT0lZdz09&omn=62102214283

SUMMARY:Space Genetics: Epigenetic Evolution in Cancer and a 500-Year Plan for Synthetic Biology
DESCRIPTION:Space Genetics: Epigenetic Evolution in Cancer and a 500-Year Plan for Synthetic Biology \n\n\n\nThe future of humankind on Earth is uncertain. Whether by climate disaster\, cataclysmic war\, or the death of the sun in a few billion years\, we face the prospect that at some time\, life on Earth may end.  As a resourceful species aware that life is at risk of extinction\, we have a responsibility to protect life—not only our own\, but for all species on Earth and for those still to come (by accidental or designed evolution\, or even AI). That means preparing to sustain life\, even one day beyond the boundaries of our planet and our solar system. The same capacity for ingenuity that has enabled us to build rockets and land on other planets can be applied to redesigning biology\, preparing ourselves to tolerate the extreme environments of outer space\, so that we can undertake long-term\, sustainable space travel. \nIn this talk\, Dr. Christopher Mason will share fascinating details on how the human body and the microbes within us react to spaceflight\, whether it’s for a short trip or a long journey. He will draw on findings from several NASA\, SpaceX\, and Axiom missions and provide key lessons for future missions to the Moon and Mars. Dr. Mason will highlight recent advances in biotechnology\, multi-omics\, data modelling\, and cross-species genome engineering\, which have revealed new ways extremophiles adapt to space and how human cells can be made more resistant to radiation. Ultimately\, Dr. Mason will explain how these discoveries and technologies could help us achieve an ambitious\, ethical goal: a 500-year plan to reengineer biology so that life can be possible on other planets. He will also reveal the best candidate planets for life in other solar systems. \n\n\n\nYou don’t want to miss this special event  \nGet your tickets now! \n\n\n\nWhen:  Monday\, October 6\, 2025 \n4:00 – 4:30 PM Registration\n4:30 – 6:00 PM Keynote Address and Q&A\n6:00 – 7:00 PM Reception \nWhere: Vancouver Convention Centre West Building \n Admission is free\, however registration is required. \nGet Tickets!
