SUMMARY:2023 Milner Therapeutics Symposium
DESCRIPTION:Our 2023 Therapeutics Symposium on Wednesday 5th July will take place as a hybrid event. A fantastic line-up of speakers will present live at West Road Concert Hall in Cambridge\, and talks will be streamed to an online platform. \nThe Annual Symposium is an opportunity for scientists from academia and industry to discuss the latest academic and pre-clinical research and how it could be applied in the pharma and biotech industry to develop new treatments. It is our key networking event for Milner Therapeutics Institute partner organisations. \nSpeakers:\nSerena  Nik-Zainal (Early Cancer Institute\, University of Cambridge)\nWolf Reik (Altos Labs)\nKaren Duff (​UK Dementia Research Institute at University College London)\nAllan Bradley (Cambridge Institute of Therapeutic Immunology & Infectious Disease and Kymab)\nCigall Kadoch (Dana Farber Cancer Institute and Harvard Medical School)\nMene Pangalos (AstraZeneca)\nManav Pathania (Department of Oncology and Milner Therapeutics Institute)\nDebora Lucarelli (Enhanc3d Genomics)\nDavid Walter and Douglas Ross-Thriepland (both at AstraZeneca Cancer Research Horizons Functional Genomics Centre) \nFor more information about this event and to register\, visit the 2023 Symposium page: milner.cam.ac.uk/milner-symposium-2023/ \nWith thanks to our Symposium sponsors\nSilver Sponsor:\n\nBronze Sponsors:

SUMMARY:Milner Institute Special Seminar - Professor Soojin Ryu
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Monday\, 17th July for a special seminar. No registration is necessary and address details can be found below.\n\nSpeaker \nProfessor Soojin Ryu\, Living Systems Institute\, University of Exeter \nTopic \n“A novel zebrafish model to identify molecular signatures of stress-induced maladaptation” \nAbstract \nChronic or severe stress exposure during development is a strong risk factor for developing neuropsychiatric diseases in humans. One proposed mechanism involves the priming of stress-sensitive gene networks through early life exposure to glucocorticoids (GCs)\, which can modify stress responses later in life. However\, the comprehensive understanding of brain-wide molecular alterations induced by GC priming remains limited. We developed and utilized a novel optogenetic zebrafish model to elevate endogenous GC levels during development and identified the transcriptomic changes in the brain across the life course. When developmental GC-exposed fish were exposed to acute stress in adulthood\, they exhibited highly exaggerated endocrinal and transcriptional changes. These changes included gene sets associated with axon development\, neuronal signaling\, and epigenetic modulators. Remarkably\, the altered gene sets were enriched with risk genes associated with human psychiatric disorders. This model may be useful for identification of molecular targets relevant for stress-induced maladaptation including neuropsychiatric disease susceptibility. \nA Short Biography \n\nBA Harvard University\nPhD in Molecular and Cell Biology\, University of California\, Berkely\nHuman Frontiers Long Term Postdoc Fellow – University of Freiburg\, Germany\n2009-2015: Max Planck Research Group Leader – Max Planck Institute for Medical Research\, Heidelberg\, Germany\n2015-2019: Associate Professor – University of Mainz\, Germany\nSince 2020: Full Professor and Assistant Director – Living Systems Institute\, University of Exeter \nJeffery Cheah Biomedical Centre Lecture Theatre\nPuddicombe Way CB2 0AW \n
