SUMMARY:Pathways to Impact: Translating Innovation and Venture-Building
DESCRIPTION:Innovation is a process by which research yields not just new knowledge\, but translates into impactful outcomes for society in the form of products\, services\, companies\, policies/practices\, and cultural shifts.  Getting from a really promising research finding to an innovation that benefits society\, however\, is anything but linear.  Whether you envision delivering your impact via: \n\nImplement policies\, practice or public debate\nBuild partnerships with external stakeholders\nCommercialize a research discovery\nBuild or support a start-up venture\n\n…there is support within UBC for all of these activities! \nIn this session\, we’re going to help build a conceptual scaffold on which you can mentally hang each of the innovation / venture-building supports available to you. \nTo register for the event\, please contact us at translational.medicine@ubc.ca. \nThe Faculty of Medicine Translational Medicine Rounds (FoM TM Rounds) are hosted for junior faculty members conducting translational research as well as their colleagues. The rounds serve to form the foundation of the new ATM  community and provide a forum where early-career interdisciplinary researchers: \n\npresent ongoing projects\,\nget feedback from the local community\,\nlearn about ongoing research\, and\nconnect with academic and clinical faculty in other disciplines.

SUMMARY:MSL Seminar Series: January – Invited Speaker\, Dr. Jilie Chai
DESCRIPTION:Invited Speaker: Dr. Jilie Chai\, MPI Germany \nTalk title: Biochemical functions of plant NLRs \nNucleotide binding and leucine-rich repeat containing receptors (NLRs) play a critical role in innate immunity of both animals and plants. Plant NLRs mediate specific recognition of pathogen effector proteins delivered into cells\, initiating effector-triggered immunity (ETI). Significant progress has been made in our understanding of ETI signaling mechanism during the past three years. Recognition of pathogen effectors results in assembly of oligomeric NLRs\, forming large protein complexes termed resistosomes that act as either cation channels or NADase holoenzymes to initiate ETI signaling. I will present what we have done about reconstitution of NLR resistosomes and structural and biochemical characterization of these large protein complexes. I will also present some unpublished data concerning a new biochemical activity (2´\,3´-cAMP/cGMP synthetase actvity) of plant TIR-containing. \nHost: Dr. Xin Li

SUMMARY:Patient-Oriented Research: Why\, What\, and How?
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a panel discussion to learn about the meaning and importance of patient-oriented research. Learn how to get started in patient-oriented research and discover how patient engagement offers new and beneficial insights into health research. \nThis workshop is part of our VCHRI Research Training Series. This series is designed to support the acquisition of advanced skills\, techniques and knowledge\, and lead to enhanced practices in the conduct of research. \nLearning objectives\nIn this workshop\, you will learn: \n\nWhat patient-oriented research is\, why it is important and how you can implement it into your project\nDifferent ways to engage a patient partner in your project\nThings to consider when collaborating with a patient partner\nHow panelists are involved in patient-orientated research

SUMMARY:Putting Cancer in Its Place
DESCRIPTION:DATE: Jan 17\, 2022 – 12:00pm to 1:00pm \nLOCATION: 700-828 W. 10 Ave. VGH Research Pavilion \nPRESENTER: Trevor Dummer \nCancer prevention is central to a successful cancer control strategy. Improved knowledge about cancer risks\, and effective translation of this knowledge into action\, are essential for developing prevention activities. Place—where we live\, work and play—significantly influences the accumulation of cancer risks that are modifiable through policy\, regulatory\, and behaviour changes. In this presentation I will provide an overview of my cancer prevention research program\, highlighting specific studies evaluating the interaction between people\, places\, and cancer. Attendees of this talk will gain an understanding of how the environment influences cancer risk\, and how insight into the relationship between health and place can advance cancer prevention. \nPlease contact Pamela Lee (pamela.lee@ubc.ca) for in-person or Zoom details. \n\nFILES:  C2E2 Spotlight – 011722.pdf

SUMMARY:The Natural and Sexual Selection of Endometriosis
DESCRIPTION:We have developed a new theory for the proximate and ultimate causes of endometriosis. We describe evidence from genetics\, endocrinology\, morphology\, behaviour\, and life history that risk for endometriosis is driven by low prenatal and postnatal testosterone\, and that the evolution of endometriosis risks\, symptoms and correlates have been mediated by both sexual selection and natural selection. The work: (1) shows how sexual selection can lead to maladaptive extremes of reproductive adaptations that manifest in symptoms of disease\, (2) provides an example of conceptual sex biases in physiology and medicine\, and (3) provides new insights directly relevant to endometriosis treatment. \nSpeaker: Bernard Crespi\, Simon Fraser University
