How do I use this calendar?

You can click on an event to display further information about it.

The toolbar above the calendar has buttons to view different events. Use the left and right arrow icons to view events in the past and future. The button inbetween returns you to today's view. The button to the right of this shows a mini-calendar to let you quickly jump to any date.

The dropdown box on the right allows you to see a different view of the calendar, such as an agenda or a termly view.

If this calendar has tags, you can use the labelled checkboxes at the top of the page to select just the tags you wish to view, and then click "Show selected". The calendar will be redisplayed with just the events related to these tags, making it easier to find what you're looking for.

BMS @ CSRL Seminar: Integration of Systems Biology with Tissue Engineering for Endometriosis Drug Development, Professor Linda Gay Griffith, CMIT Center for Gynepathology Research
Via MS Teams

Abstract: “Mice are not little people” – a refrain becoming louder as the strengths and weaknesses of animal models of human disease and drug responses become more apparent. At the same time, three emerging approaches are headed toward integration: powerful systems biology analysis of cell-cell and intracellular signaling networks in patient-derived samples; 3D tissue engineered models of human organ systems, often made from stem cells; and micro-fluidic and meso-fluidic devices that enable living systems to be sustained, perturbed and analyzed for weeks in culture. Endometriosis, adenomyosis, and other gynecological disorders are paradigms of chronic inflammatory diseases that can only partially be modeled in animal systems. In this talk, approaches to classify patients on the basis of analysis of cell-cell communication networks will be described as a motivation for building patient avatars that capture salient features of the disease processes. Then, approaches to use synthetic extracellular matrices to build tissue-engineered models of the endometrium and endometriosis lesions, including microvascular networks and immune cell recruitment, will be highlighted, along with the potential to integrate these approaches for developing new drugs to treat endometriosis and adenomyosis.
