SUMMARY:2022 Varshney Visiting Scholar Public Lecture – Dr. Prabhakaran Dorairaj – the Right Diet and Lifestyle for a Healthy Heart
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\nHeart diseases\, diabetes and their risk factors are the leading cause of death and disability worldwide. Some ethnicities such as South Asians have high propensity to develop heart diseases and diabetes as compared to other populations. These diseases are potentially preventable or can be postponed to an older age so that premature death can be avoided by following the right lifestyle and diet. However tremendous confusion abounds regarding the right diet. This talk will clarify the right diet and lifestyle for a health heart. \nBio\nProfessor Prabhakaran Dorairaj is an internationally renowned cardiologist\, epidemiologist and researcher. His initial training was from the prestigious All India Institute of Medical Sciences and McMaster University. He is currently the Vice President-Research & Policy\, Public Health Foundation of India; Executive Director of the Centre for Chronic Disease Control\, New Delhi\, India; and Professor (Epidemiology) at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine\, UK\, with multiple visiting professor appointments including Harvard School of Public Health\, McMaster and Emory Universities. Recognising his contribution to Indian Science\, he was elected as a Fellow of the Indian National Science Academy\, the highest science academy of India. His work has led to understanding the underlying mechanisms for the high propensity of diabetes and heart disease among Indians. \nDr. Prabhakaran Dorairaj is a Visiting Professor in the Faculty of Health Sciences at SFU\, and his appointment here was made possible through the Hari and Madhu Varshney Visiting Scholars Program in Indian Studies. \nAbout the Varshney Visiting Scholars Program\nThe Visiting Scholars Program in Indian Studies was first established by Simon Fraser University and the Indian Council for Cultural Relations (ICCR) and was named the Hari and Madhu Varshney Visiting Scholars Program in Indian Studies in recognition of the Varshney’s generous investment. The program will foster and strengthen cultural relations by hosting world-class Indian scholars from a wide range of disciplines such as international studies\, contemporary arts\, business and world literature. \nThis public lecture is organized by SFU’s Faculty of Health Sciences and funded through an endowment provided by the Hari and Madhu Varshney Visiting Scholar in Indian Studies program. \nAttend in person or online\nDoors Open: 6:30pm\nLecture and Q&A: 7:00-8:30pm\nLight refreshments will be served before and after the lecture. \nThere are a limited number of tickets to attend in person at the Fletcher Challenge Canada Theatre (Room 1900) at SFU Harbour Centre. \nThis lecture will also be livestreamed on YouTube for online audiences. A link to access the livestream will be available here before the event.

SUMMARY:What Has Gone Wrong with Publication Practices?
DESCRIPTION:As in several other scientific disciplines\, pharmaceutical sciences\, and in particularly nanomedicine is experiencing a reproducibility crisis [1]. This crisis has multiples roots\, and can be in part explained by the use of ever more complex experimental protocols and specialized systems [2]\, inaccurate or incomplete description of methods employed and lack of rigor in the design of experimental plan.  However\, another aspect that should not be ignored\, and that possibly contributes to exacerbating this problem is the drift which is currently occurring in the publication practices\, where for some groups\, sharing scientific findings ceases to be the primary reason for publishing their research findings. Using examples taken mainly from the field of drug delivery\, this presentation aims at analyzing the subtle causes that may contribute to the lack of reproducibility of the scientific literature and its impact on the society. It will also provide some possible solutions to disseminate new knowledge in a more reliable fashion. \nReferences: \n[1]. Leroux JC\, Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2017\, 56\, 15170-15171. \n[2]. Leroux JC\, J Control. Release 2018\, 278\, 140-141. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Jean-Christophe Leroux is a full professor of Drug Formulation and Delivery and head of the Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences at the ETH Zurich\, Switzerland. He has made important fundamental and applied contributions to the fields of biomaterials and drug delivery\, and has been involved in the development of innovative bio-detoxification systems for the treatment of metabolite disorders. He is a fellow of the AAPS\, EURASC and the CRS\, and the co-founder of the start-up pharmaceutical companies Versantis AG and Inositec AG.

Using examples taken mainly from the field of drug delivery\, this presentation aims at analyzing the subtle causes that may contribute to the lack of reproducibility of the scientific literature and its impact on the society. It will also provide some possible solutions to disseminate new knowledge in a more reliable fashion. \nReferences: \n[1]. Leroux JC\, Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2017\, 56\, 15170-15171. \n[2].

Lee at UCSF\, where she examined in situ approaches to myocardial tissue engineering. She was a NIH postdoctoral fellow under the direction of Dr. Heather D. Maynard at the University of California\, Los Angeles in the fields of polymer chemistry and nanotechnology. During this time\, she developed novel methods for site-specifically patterning proteins into 2D and 3D structures. Dr. Christman joined the Department of Bioengineering in 2007 and is a member of the Institute of Engineering and Medicine at the University of California\, San Diego. She is also Associate Dean for Faculty with the Jacobs School of Engineering. \nHer lab focuses on developing novel biomaterials for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications. Projects are highly interdisciplinary and include the development of materials for in vitro differentiation of stem cells to injectable biomaterials for tissue repair and regeneration. The lab has a strong translational focus with the main goal of developing novel minimally invasive therapies for cardiovascular disease. Dr. Christman is co-founder of Ventrix\, Inc.\, and has received several awards including the NIH Director’s New Innovator and Transformative Research Awards\, the Wallace H. Coulter Foundation Early Career Translational Research Award\, the American Heart Association Western States Innovative Sciences Award\, and the Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine Society’s Young Investigator Award. \n  \n\nResearch Talks\n\n\n\n\n\nTalk: TBD \nDr. Tanveer Syeda-Mahmood\nIBM Fellow and Global Imaging AI Leader\nIBM Research \nWebsite\n\n\n\n \n  \nTalk: Mapping Genetic Interaction Networks in Yeast and Human Cells \nDr. Charlie Boone\nProfessor\, Department of Molecular Genetics\nUniversity of Toronto \nWebsite \n \n\n\n\n\n  \nTalk: Seeing the Sound: Optical and Ultrasonic Interfaces for Neuromodulation\n \nDr. Guosong Hong\nAssistant Professor\, Materials Science & Engineering\nStanford University \nWebsite \n \n\n\n\n\n  \nTalk: TBD\n \nDr. Bozhi Tian\nProfessor\, Department of Chemistry\nUniversity of Chicago \nWebsite\n\n\n\n\nREGISTER NOW\nFollow the link below to register for this event.
