SUMMARY:BioSkryb Genomics Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:We are pleased to welcome BioSkryb Genomics for an exhibition in the John Vane Science Centre Lobby on Wednesday 31st January\, 9am-1pm. \nBioSkryb Genomics enables the study of DNA & RNA of single cells by providing a revolutionary new method for whole genome amplification (WGA) called Primary template-directed amplification (PTA). PTA improves genome coverage and calling of variants\, allowing users to profile individual cells to interrogate heterogeneity and clonality in primary samples. To this end\, BioSkryb provides kits for single-cell whole genome amplification (ResolveDNA) and more recently\, whole genome and whole transcriptome (ResolveOME) analysis from the same cell. Full-length transcripts are also captured\, providing information on splice variants\, fusion genes and TCR/BCR analysis capabilities which is missed by 3’ approaches. \n If you have an interest in single-cell or low-input profiling in your experiments or in general\, please see Account Manager\, James Freimuller on the day. \n Alternatively\, if you are unavailable at that time\, you can email james.freimuller@bioskryb.com to arrange a meeting. \n

SUMMARY:Special Seminar - Dr Roberto Bellelli
DESCRIPTION:We are pleased to welcome Dr Roberto Bellelli from The Francis Crick Institute\, to present at CRUK Barts Centre on Tuesday 5th November. \nThe seminar is entitled: ‘Mechanisms of genetic and epigenetic instability: Pol Epsilon and beyond’ \nGenomic instability is a major hallmark of cancer and understanding its nature and origins may provide avenues for patient-tailored therapies. The plasticity of cancer cells is also suggestive of epigenetic mechanisms at the heart of cancer development\, which add a further level of complexity to the challenge of tumour heterogeneity. Indeed\, epigenetic instability\, due to alteration of DNA methylation\, histone post-translational modifications and/or chromatin remodelers has been observed in most malignancies and is now considered a bona fide hallmark of cancer. Despite this\, the interplay between genetic and epigenetic instability remains to be clarified\, particularly in the context of DNA replication\, which represents an opportunity for both genome and epigenome deregulation. \nA paradigm in this area of research is mammalian DNA polymerase Epsilon and its smallest subunits\, POLE3-POLE4\, which I have discovered promotes both efficient replication initiation and facilitates Histone H3-H4 recycling at the replication fork to maintain genetic and epigenetic stability\, respectively.  Through the generation of a mouse knock-out for Pole4 and the identification of POLE1 mutations in patients affected by IMAGe syndrome (Intrauterine growth restriction\, Metaphyseal dysplasia\, Adrenal Hypoplasia and genital anomalies) and immunodeficiency\, I have described the mechanistic consequences of Pol Epsilon instability in genome maintenance\, mammalian development and tumorigenesis. More recently I discovered that POLE3-POLE4 interacts with and chaperones H3-H4 at the replication fork to maintain epigenome integrity and described the molecular determinants of this activity. \nThis work suggests the critical need to dissect in vitro and in vivo the relative contribution of these functions and emphasizes a possible interplay\, yet to be identified\, with histone chaperones\, chromatin remodelers and other replisome components. Identification of these players and their crosstalk in the context of chromatin replication will be of fundamental importance to understand the basis of epigenetic inheritance in mammals and its pathological alteration in cancer. \nThe seminar will be held in the Lister and Young Seminar Room\, 12:30-13:30.

SUMMARY:Special Seminar - Prof. Erwei Song
DESCRIPTION:We are pleased to welcome Professor Erwei Song from the Sun Yat-sen University (SYSU) to present a Special Seminar at the BCI on Monday 5th August. For more information about Prof. Song’s research\, please click here. \nThe seminar will be titled: ‘Treat the cancer soil: Turn foes to friends’ \nThe seminar will be held in the Lister and Young Seminar Room\, 1– 2pm. \nIf you would like to arrange to talk with Prof. Song\, please contact Emily Marsh (e.marsh@qmul.ac.uk). \nAbstract: Current paradigms of cancer-centric therapeutics are usually not sufficient to eradicate the malignancy\, while cancer stroma may prompt tumor relapse and therapeutic resistance. Among all the stromal cells that populate the tumor microenvironment\, tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs)\, cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) and tumor-infiltrated lymphocytes (TILs) are the most abundant and are critically involved in cancer progression. Tumor stromal cells regulate the biology of tumor cells via cell-cell contact\, numerous regulatory factors and synthesizing or remodeling the extracellular matrix\, and thus affect cancer initiation and development. Therefore\, recent characterization of tumor microenvironment brings stroma-targeting therapies for cancer treatment onto the agenda. In our studies\, we not only underscore the contribution of tumor stroma components to cancer progression\, but also highlight the relevant translational advances and potential therapeutic strategies that target tumor soil for cancer treatment.

SUMMARY:‘Immune cell metabolism in health and disease’
DESCRIPTION:The British Society for Immunology’s London Immunology Group is pleased to present ‘Immune cell metabolism in health and disease‘ taking place on Wednesday 30 May 2018 at Imperial College London\, South Kensington Campus\, 14.00 – 18.00pm. \nImmunometabolism is an emerging field that investigates how the metabolic processes of immune cells affect their roles in disease. Interest in this field is gaining momentum due to the realisation that changes in how cells utilise energy underlies many inflammatory responses\, and that manipulating cellular metabolism can beneficially enhance or reduce inflammation. During this half day meeting\, we will discuss how the inflammatory environment and cellular metabolism are integrated to regulate immune cell function. It is anticipated this meeting will be of broad interest to researchers working in the fields of immunology and/or metabolism and those interested in therapeutic approaches which target metabolic processes. \nFor more information and registration\, please click here
