BME Seminar Distinguished Lecture Series Wednesday, October 3, 2018 9:30-10:20am MJIS 1001 Weldon School of Biomedical Engineering Purdue University “Molecular Mechanism of Cytokinesis” Thomas D. Pollard, M.D. Sterling Professor of MCDB Yale University [https://pollardlab.yale.edu/sites/default/files/resize/images/thumbnail_Tho…] Abstract: Professor Pollard’s laboratory combines microscopy, biochemistry, biophysics, molecular biology and mathematical modeling to study the mechanism cytokinesis. His lab characterized important contractile ring proteins (actin, formins, profilin, cofilin, myosin-II and anillin) and developed methods to count protein molecules in live fission yeast cells by fluorescence microscopy, measuring the numbers and dynamics of more than 20 contractile ring proteins. Recently they determined the substructure of the precursors of the contractile ring by high-speed super-resolution fluorescence microscopy of live cells. This body of quantitative data allowed the lab to formulate and test molecularly explicit mathematical models for contractile ring assembly and constriction. Simulations of these models accurately account for events in live cells and provide the physical basis for mechanistic studies of the biochemical systems that regulate the transitions in the system during the cell cycle. ~BME Faculty Host: Fang Huang~ ***Coffee and juice will be provided at West Lafayette*** -- Fang Huang Assistant Professor Weldon School of Biomedical Engineering College of Engineering, Purdue University West Lafayette, IN 47907 office: 206 S Martin Jischke Dr West Lafayette, IN 47907 Room # 2025 Phone: +1 765 494 6216

[cid:image001.gif@01D42339.DFD1BE80] Dear Purdue colleagues, The 8th International breast cancer prevention symposium will be held at Purdue University of October 8 and 9, 2018 (see http://www.purdue.edu/breastcancer for the program). Registration is free for Purdue people and includes snacks and drinks during symposium days and the buffet at the poster session on the evening of October 8 (use code GoBoilers18 when registering with the link registration<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.purdue.…>; please note that to attend the Susan Bulkeley Butler Award seated lunch on October 8 there is a $15 fee; this is separate from the free symposium registration and you have the option to include this award lunch during the registration process). To submit an abstract for the poster session (open to all) and for graduate students and postdoctoral scientists to compete for the Catherine Peachey oral presentation and award please see information below. Abstract submission is open until August 20. We are looking forward to seeing you at the symposium Sophie LELIEVRE, Professor, Basic Medical Sciences Program Coleader, Drug Discovery & Molecular Sensing, Purdue Center for Cancer Research View as a Web page<http://maillinks.purdue.edu/t/35450639/808048041/76993559/0/70611/?b44ed14b…> [http://mailimages.purdue.edu/ibcn_newsletter/0675869f9c394cada5fe4d7786e043…]<http://maillinks.purdue.edu/t/35450639/808048041/73755890/0/70611/?x=400a7b…> Abstract Call Out Abstract submission is open to all.

The symposium will take us on a journey across disciplines-at the interface of biology, medicine, nutrition, engineering, computational science and statistics, ethics and policies. Primary prevention of cancer requires understanding how the environment influences the epigenome. New technologies are becoming readily available to gather vast amounts of data, and emerging models such as organs-on-a-chip will enable individualized cancer prevention. By using population data and "omics" data from a diverse group, data science can harness information to develop appropriate prevention interventions worldwide.

FW: Discovery Park, Integrative Data Science Initiative to host Artificial Intelligence and Quantum Information Science Workshop
by Turner, Jaime J 15 Aug '18

15 Aug '18

Discovery Park, Integrative Data Science Initiative to host Artificial Intelligence and Quantum Information Science Workshop Purdue's Discovery Park, in partnership with the Integrative Data Science Initiative, is hosting an Artificial Intelligence and Quantum Information Science Workshop for Purdue faculty and research staff. This free event will take place from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sept. 5 in Burton D. Morgan Building, Room 121. "The goal of this workshop is to identify the best and most appropriate opportunities for Purdue in AI and QIS coming out of the Department of Defense, Department of Energy and National Science Foundation," says Tomás Díaz de la Rubia, chief scientist and executive director of Discovery Park. In the annual research and development priority memo issued by the White House Office of Management and Budget and Office of Science and Technology Policy, the areas of AI, QIS and strategic computing were identified as vital to U.S. national security and economic competitiveness. Key research areas in AI include machine learning, autonomous systems, and applications at the human-technology frontier. Activities in QIS research should aim to develop the next-generation of QIS theory, devices and applications. "Large levels of funding are going to show up at agencies such as DOD, DOE and NSF in fiscal year '19 -- well beyond current levels," Díaz de la Rubia says. "Purdue is well-positioned to team with these federal agencies, and this workshop will help our faculty strategically position themselves to have the highest probability of success." The workshop will include a general informational session and include presentations by selected faculty on areas of specific relevance. It will also contain faculty-led breakout sessions focused around AI and QIS. Seating for the workshop is limited. Register via Qualtrics<https://purdue.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_aXFU3OaWAxlVnRr> by Aug. 29. The full memo for the FY 2020 Administration Research and Development Priorities can be found here<https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/M-18-22.pdf>. For more information, contact Cliff Wojtalewicz, assistant director of Discovery Park, at cliffw(a)purdue.edu<mailto:cliffw@purdue.edu> or 765-496-3961

IMPORTANT MESSAGE: Password change email being sent out
by Howe, Deidra M 15 Aug '18

15 Aug '18

All, ITaP will be sending an email tomorrow, August 15th, to all faculty and staff telling them to change their password. The email is legitimate. Similar email will go out to students on August 22nd. This is likely to cause some disruption, especially at this time of year, but the need for this to be done is critical, and unavoidable. There will be more in the email, but this is primarily to address some of the campus security work over the summer.
