[Embrio-list] Seminar next Monday - Donny Hanjaya-Putra and new npj Systems Biology paper

[Ladd, Brent Thomas]

Dear EMBRIO Members,

Tune in next Monday afternoon at 3pm ET on Zoom as we host a seminar by Dr. Donny Hanjaya-Putra from Notre Dame. The Hanjaya-Putra lab<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdhplab.nd.edu%2F&data=05%7C02%7Cembrio-list%40ecn.purdue.edu%7C23829485f1d64431d6a408dcd6878c8b%7C4130bd397c53419cb1e58758d6d63f21%7C0%7C0%7C638621124867483557%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=BkP2I4LGYy76CpqrU7TqQdNxeqqGSMdBg75e6KWCyEw%3D&reserved=0> focuses on stem cell morphogensis and molecular therapeutics and is a collaborator with EMBRIO affiliated labs included Zartman, Umulis, and Reeves.

Check out their new paper over on npj Systems Biology and Applications:

BTW, EMBRIO has a LinkedIn page<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.linkedin.com%2Fcompany%2Fembrioinstitute&data=05%7C02%7Cembrio-list%40ecn.purdue.edu%7C23829485f1d64431d6a408dcd6878c8b%7C4130bd397c53419cb1e58758d6d63f21%7C0%7C0%7C638621124867483557%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=9MbH5WF6Kf4FLiXN129FXxStPJOendg8o%2BCCDWjq0xs%3D&reserved=0> where we are beginning to post Institute related news (perhaps in favor over X/Twitter). Eventually, we want to have integrated knowledge and skills competency badges through LinkedIn.

There is a Chicago Cytoskeleton Society Fall meeting this Friday (details from Holly Goodson below).

An FYI that I'll be out of office this week after today, back next Monday morning.

Thanks,
Brent


>From Holly Goodson, holly.v.goodson.1 at nd.edu :

There are some changes to Chicago Cytoskeleton this year: there will be one Fall meeting Friday Sept. 20 (three weeks from today!), and one Spring meeting Friday April 25.

However, the rest will be similar to what you are used to!  Come join us at these two meetings for both the science and the social hour!   One additional difference is that these meetings will be slightly longer: the September meeting will have 7 speakers, and the April meeting will include the yearly poster session, along with the flash talk winners and keynote speaker.

Here is the lineup for Sept. 20:

Two flash talk winners:
• Madeline Lovejoy (Garcia-Mata lab, U. Toledo)
"SGEF, a RhoG-specific GEF, influences the morphology and collective migration of 3D epithelial cysts"

• Amruta Nayak (Glotzer lab, U. Chicago)
"Spatiotemporal Analysis of Requirement of Rap1 Activity in Early Embryonic Morphogenesis

Four faculty:
• Jenna Christensen (Northwestern)
"Using comparative genomics to explore dynein motor complex function"

• Sally Horne-Badovinac (U. Chicago)
 "Symmetry-breaking and initiation of rotational epithelial migration"

• Benjamin Perrin (Indiana University Indianapolis)
"Formin-dependent adhesion complexes at the base regulate actin assembly at stereocilia tips"

• Margaret Titus (U. Minnesota)
"Modulation of Filopodial Myosin Activity"

And one additional guest speaker!
• Silvia Jansen (Washington University St. Louis)

For more information, please see below.
We hope to see you Sept. 20!
