SUMMARY:Webinar: Every Cell Has Its Place - In Situ Sequencing of Tissue Samples at Single-Cell Resolution
DESCRIPTION:Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) has revolutionized the understanding of tissue complexity by dissecting transcriptomic heterogeneity and revealing previously unknown cell types and states. However\, scRNA-seq does not allow the visualization of spatial organization of single cells within the tissue. In order to overcome this limitation\, spatial gene expression profiling technologies have emerged that aim to localize molecularly defined cell types within the morphological context. In situ sequencing (ISS) can rapidly analyze and visualize the expression of hundreds of genes within morphologically intact tissue samples at single-cell resolution. ISS helps researchers to understand complex biological and pathological mechanisms and to localize and validate new drug targets. \nIn this webinar\, we will outline the benefits of ISS and showcase how it can complement spatial transcriptomics technology in the task of unraveling the role of amyloid-ß plaques in the neurogenerative process of Alzheimer’s disease. \nDuring this webinar\, the speakers will: \n\nIntroduce ISS technology and how it enables simultaneous spatial analysis of hundreds of genes in tissue samples at single-cell resolution\nShow how ISS has helped shed light on the role of amyloid-ß plaques in Alzheimer’s disease\nDiscuss applications and performance of ISS in other research areas\nAnswer your questions during the live broadcast.\n\nThis webinar will last for approximately 60 minutes.

SUMMARY:STAT Digital Event: Antiviral Treatments. What Are the Odds?
DESCRIPTION:The pandemic caused by the novel coronavirus has shut down countries around the world. One of society’s biggest hopes is that treatments or even vaccines can be developed. \nJoin STAT for a three-part digital event series covering the race for new medicines that will impact Covid-19. The audience will be joined by executives from companies leading the way in developing treatments\, who will come prepared to answer tough questions. They’ll discuss current findings\, clinical trials\, and efforts to expedite approvals as we face this global pandemic. \nThis series will take place on Zoom\, an interactive platform where attendees will be able to not only see the discussions live\, but also participate by asking questions during the event. Access to the event is free. Access to the Zoom platform is limited to the first 1\,000 attendees; any additional attendees will be able to watch the conversation in real-time via a live stream on STAT’s website. \nPart 2: Antiviral treatments. What are the odds? April 22\, 2020 at 1PM EST \n\nSponsor Introduction: Richard Moscicki\, M.D.\, chief medical officer and executive vice president of Science and Regulatory Advocacy\, PhRMA\nDiana Brainard\, senior vice president\, HIV and Emerging Viral Infections at Gilead Sciences\, Inc.\nMatt Herper\, senior writer\, medicine\, and editorial director of events\, STAT

SUMMARY:Zoom Talk: Methods and Tools for Interpreting Brain Transcriptomes
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Pavlidis will discuss concepts and challenges important to the use of RNA expression in neurogenomics and how they can be addressed using computational approaches. He will introduce some of the neuroinformatic resources his team has developed to help researchers benefit from this kind of data\, including Gemma (a curated database of over 10\,000 transcriptome studies) and NeuroExpresso (cell-type-specific expression patterns). One specific challenge in analyzing samples taken from brain tissue is cellular heterogeneity. Dr. Pavlidis will describe how this can be addressed to extract additional biological information from the data\, and an application to the study of schizophrenia and biopolar disorder \nTo join this talk\, click on the Zoom link here. The meeting ID is 624 107 423. If you want to call in\, you can find your local number here.
