SUMMARY:“I Move for Immigrant Women in Science” 2021
DESCRIPTION:To say bye to the hot summer and welcome the Fall season\, IWS is organizing a virtual fundraising campaign\, ‘I move for Immigrant Women in Science’ that will take place from September 18th to 26th. \nThe IWS network has always been the torchbearer to build a collaborative network that supports and promotes equity\, diversity\, and inclusion of Immigrant and International Women from STEM backgrounds in Canada. \nThe event offers the opportunity for everyone to participate across Canada in their comfort zone. Over a week\, participants can choose any mode of motion as they wish. You can skip\, hop\, run\, jog\, bike or even row! Activity and distance is yours to choose. \nParticipants will need to register and purchase tickets through Eventbrite. Tickets may be purchased for $5\, $10\, $15\, $20 and $25. Please do note that the distance you ‘move’ is equivalent to the ticket purchased. For example\, if you decide to move 10kms\, you are buying a ticket for $10. \nThe funds raised will help us to support our operations\, outreach\, and develop new programs. Any small help can make a big difference! \nAre you ready to take up the challenge to support the future of immigrant women in STEM? \nOnce you are registered through Eventbrite\, you will receive an order confirmation. Please note that this is not a competition and we will not have any rankings. \nEverybody will be acknowledged on our Social Media platforms (Twitter\, Linked In\, Facebook). Thus\, as soon as you complete your ‘move’\, email us a picture/selfie or screenshot from your device at: iws.fundraising@gmail.com\, or you can post a picture/selfie on Social Media channels and tag us! (Optional). \n“Let’s Move Together to Support Each Other” for IWS! Everybody is welcome to join! \n#Imove4ImmigrantWomeninScience \n#immigrantwomeninscience \n#Imove4IWSnetwork \n@IWS_Network (Twitter); and @IWSNetworkCanada (Facebook) \nThank you and happy moving! \nIWS-Network

SUMMARY:“I Move for Immigrant Women in Science” 2021
DESCRIPTION:To say bye to the hot summer and welcome the Fall season\, IWS is organizing a virtual fundraising campaign\, ‘I move for Immigrant Women in Science’ that will take place from September 18th to 26th. \nThe IWS network has always been the torchbearer to build a collaborative network that supports and promotes equity\, diversity\, and inclusion of Immigrant and International Women from STEM backgrounds in Canada. \nThe event offers the opportunity for everyone to participate across Canada in their comfort zone. Over a week\, participants can choose any mode of motion as they wish. You can skip\, hop\, run\, jog\, bike or even row! Activity and distance is yours to choose. \nParticipants will need to register and purchase tickets through Eventbrite. Tickets may be purchased for $5\, $10\, $15\, $20 and $25. Please do note that the distance you ‘move’ is equivalent to the ticket purchased. For example\, if you decide to move 10kms\, you are buying a ticket for $10. \nThe funds raised will help us to support our operations\, outreach\, and develop new programs. Any small help can make a big difference! \nAre you ready to take up the challenge to support the future of immigrant women in STEM? \nOnce you are registered through Eventbrite\, you will receive an order confirmation. Please note that this is not a competition and we will not have any rankings. \nEverybody will be acknowledged on our Social Media platforms (Twitter\, Linked In\, Facebook). Thus\, as soon as you complete your ‘move’\, email us a picture/selfie or screenshot from your device at: iws.fundraising@gmail.com\, or you can post a picture/selfie on Social Media channels and tag us! (Optional). \n“Let’s Move Together to Support Each Other” for IWS! Everybody is welcome to join! \n#Imove4ImmigrantWomeninScience \n#immigrantwomeninscience \n#Imove4IWSnetwork \n@IWS_Network (Twitter); and @IWSNetworkCanada (Facebook) \nThank you and happy moving! \nIWS-Network

SUMMARY:TFRI Pan-Can Seminar Series: BC Cancer Centre for Lymphoid Cancer
DESCRIPTION:This inaugural series\, held every other month\, features TFRI-funded program and project leaders and trainees. \n9:00-9:02am: Welcome by Jim Woodgett\, TFRI President and Scientific Director \n9:02-9:04am: Welcome and Introduction by Marco Marra\, BC Node Leader and Director\, Canada’s Michael Smith Genome Sciences Centre \n9:05 -9:45am: Christian Steidl\, MD\, Research Director\, Centre for Lymphoid Cancer\, BC Cancer\, who will speak on: Introduction to BC Cancer’s Centre for Lymphoid Cancer and The tumour microenvironment of Hodgkin lymphoma at single cell resolution \nTalk overview: In Hodgkin lymphoma (HL)\, the malignant cells are outnumbered by a dominant tumour microenvironment composed of mostly infiltrating immune cells. Modern targeted and immunotherapeutic approaches\, including checkpoint inhibitors\, have proven highly effective; however\, mechanisms of action and treatment failure remain mostly unknown. Characterization of the TME using multiparametric single cell technologies\, such as multicolor immunohistochemistry\, flow-based mass cytometry\, imaging mass cytometry\, and single cell RNAseq have provided unprecedented insight into HL biology\, fueling hope for accelerated development of immunotherapies targeting the tumour microenvironment and predictive biomarker development. \n9:45-10:05am: Brett Collinge\, Graduate Student\, Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine\, University of British Columbia\, Scott lab\, Centre for Lymphoid Cancer\, who will speak on: New molecular taxonomies in aggressive B cell lymphomas \nTalk overview: While standard treatment with chemoimmunotherapy cures ~60% of aggressive B-cell lymphomas\, patients with tumours that progress or relapse after frontline therapy have dismal outcomes\, making the development of new treatment strategies a major priority. Recent advances in molecular testing have allowed us to recognize that lymphoma entities can be further refined by introduction of molecular taxonomies grouping patients with similar molecular features and responses to treatment. Integrating molecular diagnostics into the clinic offers a promising avenue for improving outcomes in aggressive B-cell lymphomas. \n10:05-10:25am: Christopher Rushton\, Graduate Student\, Molecular Biology and Biochemistry\, Simon Fraser University\, Morin lab\, who will speak on: Genomic analysis of relapsed-refractory diffuse large B cell lymphoma \nTalk overview: Despite a plethora of treatment options\, patients with relapsed-refractory DLBCL generally have poor outcomes\, and the biology of relapsed disease is poorly understood. We have collected and sequenced samples from patients with relapsed DLBCL to identify somatic mutations that are enriched at the time point of relapse. Comparison to matched pre-treatment tumours revealed evidence of constrained tumour evolution\, diverging biology of early and late relapses\, and mechanisms of treatment resistance. \n10:25-10:30am: Final questions and conclusion

SUMMARY:Lipid and RNA Nanomedicines to Control Bleeding and Thrombosis
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Christian Kastrup \nAssociate Professor in the Michael Smith Laboratories and Department of Biochemistry & Molecular Biology at the University of British Columbia; member of the Centre for Blood Research and the School of Biomedical Engineering \nTuesday 21 September 2021 \n10:00 – 11:00 am PDT | 1:00 – 2:00 pm EDT \nThis lecture will be delivered online using Zoom \nBlood coagulation is necessary to stop bleeds\, but an imbalance of the enzymes that form\, inhibit and degrade blood clots can lead to bleeding disorders\, failure to stop severe hemorrhage after injury\, or formation of thromboses. Gene therapy\, using RNA and lipid nanoparticles\, can be used to modulate the concentration of these enzymes and correct any imbalance. This talk will highlight the applicability of RNA and lipid nanoparticles to control the expression of endogenous and exogenous proteins in the liver and in platelets\, for the goal of creating useful therapies for trauma\, rare bleeding disorders\, and thrombosis. \nDr. Christian Kastrup did his postdoctoral fellowship in at MIT\, where he specialized in engineering biomaterials for cardiovascular drug delivery. He received his PhD at the University of Chicago\, where he specialized in chemical biology\, microfluidics\, and blood coagulation. His lab at UBC utilizes biochemical engineering to solve problems related to hemostasis and hemorrhage.

SUMMARY:Lipid and RNA Nanomedicines to Control Bleeding and Thrombosis
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Christian Kastrup \nAssociate Professor in the Michael Smith Laboratories and Department of Biochemistry & Molecular Biology at the University of British Columbia; member of the Centre for Blood Research and the School of Biomedical Engineering \nTuesday 21 September 2021 \n10:00 – 11:00 am PDT | 1:00 – 2:00 pm EDT \nThis lecture will be delivered online using Zoom \nBlood coagulation is necessary to stop bleeds\, but an imbalance of the enzymes that form\, inhibit and degrade blood clots can lead to bleeding disorders\, failure to stop severe hemorrhage after injury\, or formation of thromboses. Gene therapy\, using RNA and lipid nanoparticles\, can be used to modulate the concentration of these enzymes and correct any imbalance. This talk will highlight the applicability of RNA and lipid nanoparticles to control the expression of endogenous and exogenous proteins in the liver and in platelets\, for the goal of creating useful therapies for trauma\, rare bleeding disorders\, and thrombosis. \nDr. Christian Kastrup did his postdoctoral fellowship in at MIT\, where he specialized in engineering biomaterials for cardiovascular drug delivery.
