SUMMARY:Pathways in Science: Exploring Majors and Careers
DESCRIPTION:Partway through your first year\, or further along and still unsure on what science major and/or career to pursue? You’re not alone! Join this session to connect with like-minded peers and to gain actionable advice in making your decision. \n\n\n\nWe’ll begin with an activity to self-reflect & connect with fellow students. \nWe will then present on steps towards choosing a program. Some themes we will explore include: the link between your major and career; exploring beyond “traditional” careers\, connecting your experience to the classroom; dispelling myths; and resources to connect with. \nAdvance registration is encouraged so we can best tailor our content. Can’t join in-person? Join by Zoom here: https://sfu.zoom.us/my/scispace \nThis workshop is part one of a two-part series focused on career exploration—join one or both! \n\nPart two (Jul. 3\, 11:30am) is focused on the “how”—networking & gaining experience\n\nThis workshop is co-facilitated with Brenda Badgero\, Career Education Manager at SFU Career & Volunteer Services

SUMMARY:SBME Seminar
DESCRIPTION:SBME Seminar: Challenges toward ultrahigh-speed proteomics with high-sensitivity\, high-depth and high-robustness – Dr. Yasushi Ishihama\nUnderstanding proteins and protein complexes as molecules responsible for biological functions is an essential step in understanding biological homeostasis and the diseases that result from its disruption. Although proteome sequencers based on LC/MS/MS as a core technology have been rapidly developed\, they have not yet fully met the expectations of the research community. We have focused on accelerating the LC/MS/MS sequencing technology and have investigated various methods to complete proteome sequencing in about 1 minute. By optimizing various parameters under capillary LC flow rates\, we have succeeded in achieving the protein identification number of >3000 from 100 ng of HeLa lysates in 1000 samples per day. In this talk\, I will introduce our practical and robust high-speed proteome sequencer and report on applications that take advantage of its ultra-high speed. \n \nLocation: \nLSC 1003 LT3 or join virtually

SUMMARY:Frontiers in Biophysics 2024
DESCRIPTION:About FiB 2024 \nFrontiers in Biophysics (FiB) is a one-day interdisciplinary conference organized by students\, which brings together a diverse set of perspectives and voices from the Pacific Northwest and beyond. FiB seeks to bridge gaps between those passionate about advancing the frontiers of biophysics and quantitative biology\, welcoming students and researchers from such diverse fields as physics\, mathematics\, biology\, chemistry\, computer science\, medicine\, and engineering. \nWe welcome participants at any stage of their career\, from undergraduate students to experienced researchers. Attendees will have the opportunity to network with professionals and researchers from various backgrounds\, cultivating a rich environment for interdisciplinary collaboration. \nPresent at FiB 2024 \nRegistration is now open! You may choose the format that best suits your work – a brief oral presentation or a visually compelling research poster. \nPresentation Format and Guidelines: \nTalks: 10 minutes + 2 minutes for questions\nPosters: Present your work in our 90-minute poster session. \nFrontier in Biophysics 2024 website: \nhttps://fib-2024.mystrikingly.com/

SUMMARY:Summer 2024 Visual Communication Mini-Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Lead: Samantha Grist\, PhD. Research Associate with Prof. Karen Cheung\, Prof. Sudip Shekhar\, Prof. Lukas Chrostowski (UBC ECE and SBME).\nDate and time: July 23\, Part 1 lecture: 11:00 am-12:30 pm. Part 2 hands-on (attendance capped): 2:00-4:00 pm. Please register in advance via the links below\, as attendance will be capped (first-come-first-served registration).\nPart 1: The lecture will give a brief introduction to effective presentations and why visual communication is important\, before introducing key concepts for effective visual communication and scientific figures from the book “Visual Strategies” by Felice Frankel and Angela DePace. After introducing these concepts and examples\, Samantha will then go through a couple of examples of how she has applied these strategies to improve an example figure from her previous publications\, as well as some tips that she has learned along the way. At the end of the lecture we will have a Q&A session and practice giving feedback on another example figure. Sign up here.\nPart 2: The focus of this session will be to practice both giving feedback and getting feedback on one of your in-progress figures (e.g.\, for a journal paper\, presentation\, poster)\, as well as learning how to implement some of the concepts that were introduced in the Part 1 lecture using a vector-based design program. Please note that all participants must submit a figure in advance of the workshop\, in order to participate in Part 2. Sign up here and submit figure and contextual information here. \n  \nLearn more!

SUMMARY:International Symposium on Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering
DESCRIPTION:The CMBBE Symposium originated in 1991 in the Engineering Faculty at Swansea University\, Wales\, UK\, a world leader in computational mechanics and it was organised by prof. John Middleton and his team.\nThe first meetings were held starting with 1992 at Swansea. The meetings have developed into a specialised group for those involved in computational biomechanics.  They have changed and evolved  bringing new subject areas to the forefront and have been a useful source of networking.  The meetings have always promoted workshops and special sessions together with making  a point of support for research students and young researchers.\nThrough the years\, CMBBE symposim offered a platform for networking and sharing cutting edge research and projects related computer methods in biomechanics and biomedical engineering.  We invite you now to continue the CMBBE tradition and use the new website to share your news and stay connected in a virtual way.
