Influenza-associated aspergillosis in critically ill patients – Joost Wauters
Joost Wauters- Ziekenhuis University (Leuven, Belgium) Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) typically occurs in a severely immunocompromised host and isolation of Aspergillus species in the immunocompetent host is mostly considered colonization. Overall, the six-week mortality […]

Half-Day Symposium “NMR Beyond Protein Structures”
NMR is a powerful and versatile tool for biology that is well know for its use in structure determination and dynamics of macromolecules. In the context of the future creation of a biological NMR […]

Icy basic training – Hands on. The Image Analysis Hub of the Institut Pasteur and the Bioimage Analysis group organize a day dedicated to a hands-on introduction to Icy. Icy is the software for […]

Department of Neuroscience “Investigating the transcriptional changes at the basis of memory formation in the hippocampus”
Neuronal circuits are constantly refined and remodeled in response to activity. Activity-induced plasticity is responsible for the brain’s ability to adjust to changing conditions, as in the sculpting of circuits during development, adaptation after […]

Roles of platelets and their microparticles in inflammation

BDCS Department seminar by Professor Norbert Perrimon, Harvard Medical School, Boston, USA
“The intricate world of Inter-organ communication” Organ-to-organ communications are critical to living systems and play major roles in homeostasis. Drosophila is a prime system for systematically identifying mechanisms involved in organ communication because libraries of transgenic RNAi lines are […]

“Temporal construction and deconstruction of neuronal identities in development and disease: a human pluripotent stem cell perspective” Targeted differentiations of pluripotent stem cells open new avenues to study the development, evolution and disease of […]

BDCS Department seminar by Professor Stuart Forbes, Director of the Centre for Regenerative Medicine, Professor of Transplantation and Regenerative Medicine. The University of Edinburgh, UK
“Mechanisms of regeneration of the damaged liver” Following injury the normal liver regenerates through hepatocyte proliferation. Following severe or prolonged liver injury hepatocyte or cholangiocyte regeneration can be impaired and senescence can occur. In […]

BDCS Department seminar by Professor Guillaume Charras, London Centre for Nanotechnology University College London
Abstract: Epithelia are planar tissues, separating the internal environment from the external environment in many organs. I will present two recent studies that examine the behaviour of cells within monolayers. A major epithelial function […]
