MJIS Updates Our semi-annual air handling shutdown is tentatively scheduled for Tuesday, October 10th. As a reminder: the entire building air handling system in MJIS will be turned off. ALL chemical hood activity, biosafety cabinet activity, autoclave work and activities in wet labs will need to STOP by 5 PM on Monday, October 9th. Any chemicals stored in the hoods will have to be sealed at that time. Signs will be posted on all hoods to remind users not to use the hoods Monday evening, and removed when the maintenance work is completed and normal operations can resume. Please plan ahead - DO NOT use chemicals in the lab areas that you would normally use in the hoods. Graduate Committee and Grad Programs Update: * As the semester gets underway, remember that graduate students enrolled in research will need to meet with their primary faculty mentors to set research expectations (see attached) for the semester and then the faculty member will need to alert the graduate school when these requirements are set for each RA you are mentoring. These meetings are also a good time to review Student-Advisor Expectation Scales (see attached) as well as IDPs (individualized Development Plans - see links below) with each student you mentor to help them set goals for the semester and year ahead. * BME IDP-Year 1<https://engineering.purdue.edu/BME/Academics/Graduate/Prof_Development/IDP_Year%201_BME_v2.pdf> * BME IDP-Year 2<https://engineering.purdue.edu/BME/Academics/Graduate/Prof_Development/IDP_Year%202_BME_v1.pdf> * BME IDP-Years 3+ <https://engineering.purdue.edu/BME/Academics/Graduate/Prof_Development/IDP_Years%203_BME_v1.pdf> https://engineering.purdue.edu/BME/Academics/Graduate/PhDMilestones/PhD_Mile...

Brady Hislop (Montana State University) will present "Does bone to cartilage fluid transport exist and is it relevant to joint health." Hosted by Deva Chan and Doug Brubaker. Abstract: Post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA) is a debilitating disease that presents in more than 50% of patients within 10-20 years of joint injury (i.e., ACL tear). During traumatic injuries our joints experience loads that vastly exceed the loads seen during normal physiological loading (i.e., walking). These excessive loads, combined with loss of normal joint mechanics lead to cartilage swelling, cell death, and drastic bone loss within the first week after injury. However, the root cause of these changes and their role in the progression from injury to PTOA remains elusive. A potential mechanism for these changes is joint fluid transport. Joint fluid transport influences joint mechanics and is directly tied to the strain response of cartilage. The focus to date in musculoskeletal research has been on fluid transport within cartilage alone. Recently, studies have shown that musculoskeletal researchers may be ignoring a key player in joint mechanics and mass flux - bone to cartilage fluid transport. Bone to cartilage fluid transport may be a critical component of joint mechanics and provide cartilage with an additional source of nutrients. In addition, bone to cartilage fluid transport changes after traumatic injury may drive early joint changes, and the associated progression from injury to PTOA. Therefore, understanding the role of bone to cartilage fluid transport in health and disease is a logical next step toward understanding the progression from injury to PTOA. Biography: Brady Hislop is originally from Polson, MT, a small town in northwest Montana. He received his Bachelors of Science in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Idaho in 2019, and started his PhD in Mechanical Engineering at Montana State University in the fall of 2019. As a PhD candidate, his research has focused on applying computational and experimental methods to better understand orthopedic systems. Furthermore, he was responsible for the conceptualization, design, development, and utilization of a novel pipeline for untargeted metabolomics data - ensemble clustering de novo. Wed., Sept. 20: Purdue Engineering Distinguished Lecture Series, 10:30 a.m., ARMS Atrium. (NOTE: Please plan on attending this very special seminar. There will not be a "regular" BME seminar this week so that you will be available to attend!) Huda Y. Zoghbi, Investigator Howard Hughes Institute, Distinguished Service Professor, Baylor College of Medicine, and Founding Director of the Jan and Dan Duncan Neurological Research Institute at Texas Children's Hospital will be presenting "Rett Syndrome: From the Clinic to Genomes, Epigenomes, and Neural Circuits." Abstract: Rett syndrome is a delayed-onset childhood disorder, typically found in girls, that causes a broad range of severe neurological disabilities, including loss of the ability to speak and socialize, and the development of tremors, ataxia, seizures, autonomic dysfunction, and stereotypic hand-wringing movements. We discovered that mutations in the gene MECP2 cause Rett syndrome, and before long it became clear that mutations in MECP2 can also cause other neuropsychiatric phenotypes ranging from autism to bipolar disorders. Using genetically-engineered mice, we learned that the brain is acutely sensitive to MeCP2 levels; both decreases and increases in the amount of MeCP2 protein can lead to neurological problems that are also observed in humans. We learned that normalizing MeCP2 levels can reverse disease-like features in a mouse model of the human MECP2 duplication syndrome, a disorder that is usually found in boys and results from excess MeCP2. In addition, we have been gradually pinpointing the neurons and circuit abnormalities that mediate various symptoms. Building on this understanding of the relationship between neural circuits and the features of Rett syndrome, we are exploring deep brain stimulation to improve some Rett phenotypes. Bio: Dr. Zoghbi graduated from the American University of Beirut (AUB). She attended AUB's medical school for one year, but due to the civil war, she moved to the U.S. and received her medical degree from Meharry Medical College. She joined Baylor College of Medicine for her residency and subsequently obtained additional training in molecular genetics. Dr. Zoghbi's expertise ranges from neurodevelopment to neurodegeneration. She and Dr. Harry Orr discovered that Spinocerebellar Ataxia type 1 is caused by expansion of a polyglutamine tract. Her subsequent studies demonstrating that such expansion leads to accumulation of the mutant protein in neurons has had profound ramifications since many late-onset neurological disorders involve similar accumulations of disease-driving proteins and inspired her studies in Alzheimer disease. Her work in neurodevelopment led to the discovery of the gene Math1/Atoh1 and showed that it governs the development of several components of the proprioceptive, balance, hearing, vestibular, and breathing pathways. She also discovered that mutations in MECP2 cause the postnatal neurological disorder Rett syndrome and revealed the importance of this gene for various neuropsychiatric features. Dr. Zoghbi has trained over 100 scientists and physician-scientists and is committed to educating the next generation. She has been elected to the National Academy of Medicine, the National Academy of Sciences, and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. Dr. Zoghbi's honors include the Pearl Meister Greengard Prize from Rockefeller University; the Shaw Prize in Life Science and Medicine; the Breakthrough Prize in Life Sciences; the Canada Gairdner International Prize; the Lundbeck Foundation's 2020 Brain Prize; and the Kavli Prize from the Kavli Foundation. She has honorary degrees from Harvard University, the University of Massachusetts, Yale University and KU Leuven. Thurs., Sept. 21: Seminars in Hearing Research, 12:00 p.m., Nelson Hall, Room 1215. Ananthanarayan Krishnan, Professor of SLHS will present "Tonal language experience shapes functional asymmetries in pitch processing at the brainstem and cortical levels." Abstract: Temporal attributes of pitch processing at cortical and subcortical levels shaped by language experience are differentially weighted and well-coordinated. The question is whether language experience induced functional modulation of hemispheric preference is complemented by selective brainstem ear symmetry for pitch processing. Brainstem frequency-following and cortical pitch responses were recorded concurrently from Mandarin and English participants. A Mandarin syllable (in both speech and non-speech context) with a rising pitch contour (Mandarin Tone 2) was presented monaurally to both ears. At the cortical level, left ear stimulation in the Chinese group revealed an experience-dependent enhanced response for pitch processing in the right hemisphere, consistent with a functional account. The English group revealed a contralateral hemisphere preference consistent with a structural account. At the brainstem level, the Chinese participants showed a functional leftward ear asymmetry, whereas English were consistent with a structural account. Taken together, the cortical RH preference for processing pitch-relevant information in the Chinese group may reflect, at least in part, experience-dependent enhanced input from the right IC. Thus, RH preference seen at the cortical level may already be emerging at the subcortical level. Overall, language experience appears to modulate both cortical hemispheric preference and brainstem ear asymmetry in a complementary manner to optimize processing of temporal attributes of pitch.

Alves, PhD, within the Department of Emergency Medicine at the Indiana University School of Medicine (IUSM), is seeking a highly motivated and independent post-doctoral research fellow. Dr. Alves is a Chemical and Biomolecular Engineer, Associate Professor and the Director of Translational Research for the Department of Emergency Medicine in addition to having an affiliate faculty appointment at Purdue University in Biomedical Engineering. The Alves Lab explores highly interdisciplinary research interests applying engineering and biophysical principles and designs to create translational technologies and treatments in the area of blood coagulation and fibrinolysis. The primary focus of research in the laboratory is to develop targeted clot digesting therapeutic agents to more safely digest clinically relevant blood clots to treat pulmonary embolism (PE, blood clots in the lungs), deep vein thrombosis (DVT), and ischemic stroke. This interdisciplinary research utilizes diverse enzyme assays, chemical synthesis, blood clot formation and digestion assays under shear, and other novel testing/delivery platforms that include multivalent branched molecules and nanoparticle drug delivery systems. Projects Include: (1) Leveraging multivalency to modulate enzyme activity and improve inhibitor selectivity (nanoparticle drug delivery and targeting). (2) Ex-vivo flowing models of clot digestion under shear using in-vivo like fluorescently labeled blood clots from human whole blood. (3) Development of novel fibrinolytic diagnostics tools to assess coagulation state. (4) Mouse models of clot formation/targeting/digestion utilizing intravital microscopy. (5) Study the effects of environmental microplastic exposure on coagulation/fibrinolysis. Projects are funded both externally and internally.
