SUMMARY:Cognitive Sciences Virtual Colloquia Series - Josh McDermott\, Ph.D.
DESCRIPTION:Understanding Auditory Cortical Computation \nJust by listening\, humans can determine who is talking to them\, whether a window in their house is open or shut\, or what their child dropped on the floor in the next room. This ability to derive information from sound is enabled by a cascade of neuronal processing stages that transform the sound waveform entering the ear into cortical representations that are presumed to make behaviorally important sound properties explicit. Although much is known about the peripheral processing of sound\, the subsequent computations that support behavior are less understood. This talk will describe our recent efforts to develop new models of auditory computation that can account for auditory behavior\, illuminate function within auditory cortex\, and help people hear better. \nSpeaker Bio \nJosh McDermott studies sound and hearing in the Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences at MIT\, where he is an Associate Professor and heads the Laboratory for Computational Audition. His research addresses human and machine audition using tools from experimental psychology\, engineering\, and neuroscience. McDermott obtained a BA in Brain and Cognitive Science from Harvard\, an MPhil in Computational Neuroscience from University College London\, a PhD in Brain and Cognitive Science from MIT\, and postdoctoral training in psychoacoustics at the University of Minnesota and in computational neuroscience at NYU. He is the recipient of a James S. McDonnell Foundation Scholar Award\, an NSF CAREER Award\, a Troland Research Award\, and the BCS Award For Excellence in Undergraduate Advising. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Developmental and Cell Biology Seminar Series with Irene Chiolo
DESCRIPTION:Highways for Repair: Nuclear Actin Filaments and Myosins Drive Relocalization and Repair of Heterochromatic DNA Breaks \nJoin the UCI BioSci Department of Developmental and Cell Biology in a virtual seminar with Irene Chiolo\, Associate Professor of the Department of Biological Sciences of the University of Southern California. \n\nAbstract \nPericentromeric heterochromatin accounts for ~30% of fly and human genomes and is mostly composed of repeated DNA sequences prone to aberrant recombination. Defective double-strand break (DSB) repair of heterochromatin results in widespread genome instability\, a major driving force for tumorigenesis. Genome instability is also a leading cause of aging-related diseases and contributes to developmental defects\, sterility\, and neurological and neuromuscular degeneration in several genetic syndromes. And yet\, repair mechanisms in heterochromatin have been woefully understudied. Using Drosophila cells\, our pioneering studies have identified a striking relocalization of repair sites to the nuclear periphery for ‘safe’ homologous recombination (HR) progression. SUMOylation has a pivotal role in this pathway\, by blocking HR inside the domain and promoting relocalization. We have also uncovered a remarkable network of transient nuclear actin filaments and myosins driving directed motions to the nuclear periphery\, and we have identified highly conserved pathways in mammalian cells. More recently\, we have discovered a role for nucleoporins in mobilizing repair sites ‘off pore’\, likely through phase separation. Ultimately\, we expect these studies to open new avenues for cancer treatment and for developing more effective strategies to address aging-related disorders and neurological/neuromuscular diseases.

SUMMARY:CNLM Virtual Colloquium with Dr. Beth Stevens
DESCRIPTION:(Re) Defining Myeloid Cell States and Function in Alzheimer’s Disease \nJoin the Center for the Neurobiology of Learning and Memory in a virtual colloquium with Dr. Beth Stevens\, Associate Professor of Neurology at Harvard University. \nAbstract: Emerging evidence from genetic association studies shows that dysregulation of the brain’s immune system plays a key role in the onset and progression of neurodegenerative disease. Our research aims to identify and validate disease mechanisms informed by human genetics and identify functional and mechanistic markers of myeloid and glial cells in detrimental states\, before cognitive decline\, that can be readily detected through imaging and fluid biomarkers. Using single-cell RNA sequencing\, spatial transcriptomics and proteomic approaches we identified molecular signatures that can be used to localize and monitor distinct microglia functional states in human and mouse brain. Our results show that microglia assume diverse functional states in development\, aging and injury\, including populations corresponding to known microglial functions including proliferation\, migration\, inflammation\, and synaptic phagocytosis. In addition\, we identified several innate immune pathways by which microglia recognize and prune synapses during development and in models of disease\, including the classical complement cascade. Illuminating the mechanisms by which developing synaptic circuits are sculpted is providing important insight on understanding how to protect synapses in Alzheimer’s and other neurodegenerative diseases of synaptic dysfunction.

His laboratory studies the molecular mechanisms of drug addiction and depression in animal models. The goal of Dr. Nestler’s research is to better understand the molecular mechanisms of addiction and depression. His laboratory uses animal models of these disorders to identify the ways in which long-term exposure to drugs of abuse or stress changes the brain to lead to addiction- or depression-like syndromes. A major focus of his work is on drug- and stress-induced changes in gene expression and chromatin structure within the brain’s reward circuitry\, and the mechanisms by which those lasting adaptations alter neuronal and circuit function to produce behavioral abnormalities. \n  \nDetails coming soon!
