Seminar by Prof. Anup Singh on “Molecular Imaging using CEST MRI: Acquisition, Analysis and Applications”

CES Seminar Hall CES Seminar Hall, 3rd Floor, Biological Science Building

Title: Molecular Imaging using CEST MRI: Acquisition, Analysis and Applications Abstract:  MRI is routinely being used to obtain different types of images that are sensitive to structural, functional, and physiological information. The use of MRI in disease diagnosis, treatment planning, and treatment monitoring is rapidly growing. Chemical-exchange-saturation-transfer (CEST) is an advanced MRI techniques which provides […]

Seminar by Dr. Somenath Bakshi on “Connecting the dynamics of microbial systems across scales”

Online

Title: Connecting the dynamics of microbial systems across scales Abstract:  Biological reactions often involve low-copy molecular reactants, leading to stochastic outcomes. As a result, there is substantial heterogeneity among cells, even when they experience the same external conditions. Recent theoretical and experimental investigations have demonstrated that for microbial systems such heterogeneity is of important consequence to […]

Special Lecture by Dr. Gaurav Das on “The food fly: neural circuits of feeding and emesis in Drosophila”

CES Seminar Hall CES Seminar Hall, 3rd Floor, Biological Science Building

Title: The food fly: neural circuits of feeding and emesis in Drosophila Abstract: Our group is broadly interested in understanding how the brain communicates with the gut and other organ systems to regulate food/nutrient intake. Food intake is mainly influenced by innate sensory inputs and also by memories of past feeding experiences. We have developed and improved handy […]

Special Lecture by Prof. Carla Rothlin titled: Cracking the cell death code

Biological Sciences Auditorium

Title: Cracking the cell death code Abstract: Cell death is an invariant feature throughout our lifespan, starting with extensive scheduled cell death during morphogenesis and continuing under homeostasis in adult tissues. Additionally, cells become victims of accidental, unscheduled death following injury and infection. Cell death in each of these occasions triggers specific and specialized responses […]
