SUMMARY:Special Seminar: Dr Mirjana Efremova
DESCRIPTION:We are pleased to announce that Dr Mirjana Efremova from the Wellcome Sanger Institute will present at the BCI on Wednesday 9th October. \nMirjana did her BSc (Computer Science) and MSc (Bioinformatics) in Macedonia. She then completed her PhD in the field of computational cancer immunology at the Medical University of Innsbruck.  Mirjana is interested in the role of the immune system in cancer progression. At the Teichmann Lab\, she is applying single cell technologies and computational approaches to study the cellular diversity within the tumour microenvironment and to understand the underlaying mechanisms involved in mediating interactions between tumour and immune cells. \nThe seminar is entitled: “Decoding cell-cell communication networks by single cell transcriptomics” \nThe seminar will be held in the Lister and Young Seminar Room\, 15:00-16:00. \n

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:Medicine at the Crick
DESCRIPTION:We are pleased to invite you and any interested colleagues to attend our inaugural ‘Medicine at the Crick’ event\, entitled “Gene and Gene-Editing Therapy: A new challenge and opportunity in Clinical Medicine”\, to be held on Thursday 28 June 2018\, 2.30pm-7pm\, at the Francis Crick Institute\, London. \nOur new ‘Medicine at the Crick‘ event series aims to showcase major advances in biomedical science and raise awareness of the medical implications of major scientific advances amongst the Crick and wider UK biomedical community. \nThe format is a series of short talks\, followed by a keynote lecture and a panel discussion. We chose the theme of gene therapy and gene editing to launch the series. The event will be led by Professor Robin Lovell-Badge from the Crick and the keynote lecture will be given by Professor Matthew Porteus from Stanford University. Other speakers and panellists include Dr Claire Booth (UCL Great Ormond Street Institute of Child Health)\, Professor Sarah Tabrizi (UCL Institute of Neurology)\, Dr Sarah Chan (University of Edinburgh) and Nick Meade (Genetic Alliance UK). \nFor full information on the programme\, and to order your free tickets for the event\, please visit our Medicine at the Crick webpages or contact us on medicine-at-crick@crick.ac.uk

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
