SUMMARY:CRISPR and Gene Editing: The New Frontier in Fighting Infectious Diseases?
DESCRIPTION:Few technologies have the potential to disrupt and eliminate infectious disease and viral infections– but gene editing\, CRISPR in particular\, is a latent technology that could change biotech – and we’re just seeing the beginning of what effect it could have on the world. \n  \nWith scientific promise comes interest from investors – a surge of biotech startups are utilizing CRISPR technology for many different applications such as at-home testing\, in-clinic uses\, and more. “This incredibly powerful repurposing of the bacterial immune system has created an outpouring of financial backing for small companies with revolutionary technological advancement in genome engineering-based ventures.”[1] \n  \nWe will explore this subject with presentations from experts in the field\, startup companies innovating in this space\, and investors looking to invest in these new applications. \n  \n*Please note: This webinar will be a rebroadcast of the livestream from this event which took place November 12\, 2019 in Toronto. All registrants will receive a link to the recording after the webinar.

SUMMARY:Lab Animal Motion Capture: Talk Delivered via Zoom
DESCRIPTION:Helge Rhodin recently ventured into motion capture for lab animals [e.g.\, DeepFly3D]. It poses hard computer vision challenges and promises huge impacts in neuroscience and other life science research via automation. He will give an overview of the state-of-the-art motion capture methods and outline our contributions\, including the capture of animal motion and its unsupervised clustering into behavior classes. He hopes to trigger a discussion on how DeepLabCut and similar approaches are currently used and what toolset you would like to see in the future. \nHelge Rhodin is an Assistant Professor at UBC\, associated with the computer vision and graphics labs. Prior to that\, he was a lecturer at EPFL and postdoctoral researcher in Pascal Fua’s CVLab. His research interests range from computer graphics and augmented reality\, over 3D computer vision\, to machine learning. Helge received the BSc and MSc degree in Computer science from Saarland University\, respectively supervised by Philipp Slusallek and Sebastian Hack\, and Michael Breuß and Joachim Weickert.  He graduated with a PhD in 2016\, with his thesis on Motion Capture for Interactive Virtual Worlds\, mentored by Christian Theobalt and Hans-Peter Seidel at the Max-Planck Institute for Informatics. \nJoin Zoom meeting here. \nMeeting ID: 423 288 920 \nIf calling in\, you can find your local Zoom number here.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Key Capabilities for Scientist-Entrepreneurs
DESCRIPTION:In these uncertain times\, it is even more evident how important university research is to addressing\, informing and solving global needs. Inspiring stories of researchers developing potential treatments and vaccines for Covid-19 or re-purposing their lab to develop test reagents or medical equipment demonstrate the passion and incredibly relevant scientific and engineering capabilities of our university\, hospital\, and industry researchers. Clearly\, there are also other global needs\, including our pressing climate challenge\, where university researchers have scientific ideas which could make a big difference. The reality is too many of these ideas don’t get out of university labs. \nWe would love to help shape the lab stage entrepreneurial capabilities of more university graduate students and researchers\, so that they can make an impact with their research beyond publications and patents. \nMark your calendars for an upcoming webinar on April 16th at 11am (PST) hosted by the Beedie School of Business. Learn about four key entrepreneurial capabilities for scientist entrepreneurs\, discover the academic content within the Invention to Innovation (i2I) program\, and hear from some of our outstanding alumni and the impact of their translational initiatives. \nAlumni find that their labs raise more translational funding\, they pivot to innovation leadership roles\, and some found impactful science-based ventures. \nApplications are now open for the September 2020 Cohort of the Invention to Innovation Certificate Program at SFU’s Beedie School of Business. If you know a PhD student\, post-doctoral fellow\, or Professor who wants to lead translational R&D or to explore the commercialization potential of their current research\, please share the details about this webinar and about our i2I program.

DESCRIPTION:In these uncertain times\, it is even more evident how important university research is to addressing\, informing and solving global needs. Inspiring stories of researchers developing potential treatments and vaccines for Covid-19 or re-purposing their lab to develop test reagents or medical equipment demonstrate the passion and incredibly relevant scientific and engineering capabilities of our university\, hospital\, and industry researchers. Clearly\, there are also other global needs\, including our pressing climate challenge\, where university researchers have scientific ideas which could make a big difference. The reality is too many of these ideas don’t get out of university labs. \nWe would love to help shape the lab stage entrepreneurial capabilities of more university graduate students and researchers\, so that they can make an impact with their research beyond publications and patents. \nMark your calendars for an upcoming webinar on April 16th at 11am (PST) hosted by the Beedie School of Business. Learn about four key entrepreneurial capabilities for scientist entrepreneurs\, discover the academic content within the Invention to Innovation (i2I) program\, and hear from some of our outstanding alumni and the impact of their translational initiatives. \nAlumni find that their labs raise more translational funding\, they pivot to innovation leadership roles\, and some found impactful science-based ventures. \nApplications are now open for the September 2020 Cohort of the Invention to Innovation Certificate Program at SFU’s Beedie School of Business. If you know a PhD student\, post-doctoral fellow\, or Professor who wants to lead translational R&D or to explore the commercialization potential of their current research\, please share the details about this webinar and about our i2I program.

SUMMARY:Virtual Writing Workshop
DESCRIPTION:In our current situation of a global pandemic\, suddenly\, you have the time to analyze your data and write your paper or grant. \nAnd\, when you sit down to write\, there is an opening for your inner critic. You will know the voice of your inner critic because it is stopping you from taking action. It may be any combination of doubt\, questioning\, confusion\, circling\, overanalyzing\, perfecting and uncertainty. \nYou also know\, that even though it may feel like just a whisper\, there is another part of you that has a desire to be clear\, confident and taking action to make progress. You can see that there is a part of you that wants to make the most of this exceptional time that you have to dedicate to your writing. \nSo\, the question becomes how do we silence our inner critic and grow the voice that is supporting us to write? \nWell\, it’s a process. Your next step is to accept our invitation to a complimentary one-hour Zoom Webinar so that you may learn the Surprising First Step to Silencing Your Inner Critic. \nEvent details:\nWhere; ZOOM teleconference\nWhen: Tuesday April 7th\, 11AM-12PM \nPlease sign up below to receive an invitation to a Zoom Meeting. \nSpots will be reserved for the first 12 that sign up and we are closing this invitation on Friday Apr 3. Depending on interest\, future workshops may be possible. \nAs a part of this opportunity\, Melissa will also be offering you a complimentary one-hour Discovery Call to support you with next steps.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Deciphering the Cell Cycle - The Role of Cell Cycle Control in Cancer
DESCRIPTION:A fundamental hallmark of cancer is uncontrolled cell division. In an effort to understand this process\, researchers have focused on characterizing the signaling proteins that govern the regulation of the cell cycle. Specific cyclin dependent kinases (CDKs) and their activating cyclin subunits are desirable therapeutic targets because they regulate a cell’s transition through different phases and checkpoints in the cycle\, providing opportunities to block dysregulated cell division and therefore block tumor growth. In recent years\, researchers have seen success with FDA-approved treatments that target CDK4/6 at the G1/S checkpoint of the cell cycle in estrogen receptor-positive and HER2-negative breast cancers. Many clinical trials are ongoing\, not only to test new drugs\, but also to examine the effects of combinatorial therapies on various cancer types. In their presentations\, our speakers will discuss the intricate interactions between key cell-cycle proteins and how therapeutic interventions can target their activity to fight common cancers.\nDuring the webinar viewers will: \n\nHear about exciting advancements in understanding how CDKs regulate cell cycle control\nDiscover how new CDK inhibitors can be used in combination with other therapeutics to target cancer\nLearn about similarities and differences in critical cell cycle signaling pathways in different cancer types\nHave the opportunity to ask questions during the live broadcast.\n\nThis webinar will last for approximately 60 minutes \nYou can also view part 1 of this series.
