SUMMARY:Pufferfish (and relatives) are Way Cool because…
DESCRIPTION:They have one of the most curious defense systems of the animal kingdom! \nThe pufferfish has a smile unlike any other fish! But watch out- when it feels threatened\, the pufferfish fills its highly elastic stomach with water and inflates like a rubber ball. The spherical shape can get it up to three times its normal size\, which is very effective to intimidate and drive away the enemy. In addition\, the pufferfish is considered the second most poisonous vertebrate on Earth\, and yet\, its flesh is considered a delicacy in certain parts of the world. The Tetrodotoxin is a neurotoxin 1\,200 times more deadly than cyanide\, and just two grams is enough to kill a person. \nHere’s a lesser known fact: Pufferfish are very curious and intelligent. \nThey can be taught tricks\, learn to memorize different shapes and patterns\, and recognize their owners. Many pufferfish caretakers have remarked how much they resemble small water puppies! They have also made great contributions to science being the first fish to have their whole genome sequenced. Their relatives include the great Mola mola\, the spiny porcupinefish\, and the interestingly shaped boxfish. Learning how pufferfish and relatives are “way cool” helps understand the diversity of these amazing animals\, and how to help protect them. \nAmy Liu is a self-proclaimed pufferfish (family Tetraodontiformes) enthusiast\, and a masters student studying fishes and genetics at The University of British Columbia. She has worked with various organizations in science outreach such as the Vancouver Aquarium\, Royal Tyrrell Museum of Paleontology\, and Parks Canada.

SUMMARY:Nerd Nite Solstice Spectacular 2019
DESCRIPTION:With only one month left in 2019\, it’s time to celebrate Nerd Nites past. Join us for our 3rd annual Solstice Spectacular – a night of shenanigans\, sasquatch and science! We’ve invited all of 2019’s Nerd Nite speakers to join us and we’re hoping you’ll join in too! Come and mingle\, grab a drink\, and watch past speakers and audience members play “Powerpoint Karaoke\,” where presenters are given 5 minutes to present using a slide deck they haven’t seen before. Want to play? Put your name in a hat to present and win prizes! And true to Nerd Nite tradition\, this Solstice will feature special guest speaker Jay Ingram (host of Discovery Channel’s ‘Daily Planet’\, CBC’s ‘Quirks and Quarks’\, and author of the book series ‘The Science of Why?) who will be delving into the complex science of the impacts of climate change on the sasquatch. THESE ARE THE BIG QUESTIONS EVERYONE!

SUMMARY:D.R.I.N.K.S.
DESCRIPTION:The D.R.I.N.K.S. (Discussions Relevant to Inspiring New Knowledge and Science) social is held monthly at Mahoneys on Stamps Landing (Old Monk McQueens on False Creek at 601 Stamps Landing). The purpose is to bring together faculty\, clinicians\, scientists\, residents\, trainees\, staff\, entrepreneurs\, bio/pharm staff/execs/veterans\, lawyers\, VCs\, and others with common interests in biomedical/translational research & discovery/commercialization once a month to casually interact and meet new people over a beverage of their choice and/or appetizer. It’s also becoming a great way for people that have just moved to\, or even just visiting Vancouver to meet others in research/biomedical field/industry.

SUMMARY:BCRegMed Workshop: Data Science for the Regenerative Medicine Lab
DESCRIPTION:How can regenerative medicine goals be advanced by having better computational data science platforms. How do we best handle our data\, how do we design our experiment so that we are collecting the right data\, and how can we optimize that collection knowing how we want it to look. What tools are available to students and faculty that can improve their collection and analysis. Is there a place for machine learning in regenerative medicine\, and how would we implement it? \nLearn all this and more at our DATA SCIENCE WORKSHOP\, featuring David Becerra Alonso from  Loyola Andalucía University\, Mathematics and Engineering.  \n\n\nDECEMBER 16th \n\n9am-4m \nBiomedical Research Centre Rm 351! \n\nAgenda:\n1) Types of data\n2) Data processing\nCoffee Break\n3) Neural network behaviour and demystification of machine learning\nLunch\n4) Intro to image\n5) Image analysis\n6) Feature subset selection\n7) Dimensionality reduction
