缅北强奸

Join our panel of experts for a discussion about the impact of Single-Cell Genomics (SCG) to inform brain and mental health research. Hosted by听Lesley Fellows, MD, PhD,听Vice-President (Health Affairs) and Dean of the 缅北强奸 Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, the session will include presentations by听Gustavo Turecki, MD, PhD, Claudia Kleinman, PhD,听补苍诲听Stephanie Zandee, PhD.听

The human brain has long been an enigma in the realm of science and medicine. Novel imaging and mapping technology continue to uncover the mysteries of neurological function and the development of pathologies. And now, scientists are embarking on a new venture, as the Ludmer Centre for Neuroinformatics and Mental Health prepares to specialize in SCG research. By leveraging SCG techniques, we can now gain unprecedented insights into brain activity and cellular interactions, enabling us to pinpoint disease-specific cellular changes and track how these alterations contribute to disease onset and progression.听

Established in 2013, the Ludmer Centre is a collaborative partnership between three 缅北强奸 research Hospitals:听the Douglas, The Neuro, and the Lady Davis Institute.听With the existing infrastructure and expertise in each of the partner institutions, the SCG Brain Initiative can map the genome of each brain cell, analyze the generated data, and integrate it into platforms that allow for the sharing of this data world-wide.

Our distinguished speakers:听

Dr. Gustavo Turecki听is a professor and the chair of the Department of Psychiatry at 缅北强奸, the Scientific Director of the Douglas Research Institute, and the Director of the 缅北强奸 Group for Suicide Studies. He uses clinical and basic research approaches to understand the underlying mechanisms leading to suicide and suicidal behaviour.听听听

Prof. Claudia Kleinman听is an associate professor in the Department of Human Genetics at 缅北强奸,鈥痑nd a researcher in the Lady Davis Research Institute at the Jewish General Hospital. Her research aims to advance our understanding of cancers and brain disorders by decrypting the fundamental mechanisms regulating gene expression, and their interplay with genetic and epigenetic factors.听听

Prof. Stephanie Zandee听is an assistant professor in the Integrated Program in Neuroscience, and a researcher at the Montreal Neurological Institute. Her research focuses on Multiple Sclerosis, and the brain lesion evolution at the transcriptomic and proteomic level using single-cell approached and machine learning.听听听
