  • Rapid, automated diagnostics for tuberculosis: a potential new benchmark
    • - Mark Perkins, M.D., Chief Scientific Officer, Foundation for Innovative New Diagnostics (FIND) (2012/09/12)
    • - Category : Special
    The lecture has been organized to highlight a potentially formative development in tuberculosis control: the creation of an automated nucleic acid amplification test allowing health care workers to diagnose tuberculosis and detect resistance within one hundred minutes. Current testing methods require multiple weeks to deliver laboratory results. The new test, Xpert MTB/RIF, introduces the prospect of transforming TB detection and targeted treatment by enabling patients to begin treatment on the same day.

  • Defining the Spectrum of Resistance to be Targeted Anti-Cancer Therapeutics
    • - Levi A. Garraway M.D., Ph.D., Harvard Medical School (2012/09/08)
    • - Category : Wednesday Afternoon Lectures
    Dr. Levi Garraway has made seminal research contributions in cancer genomics, drug resistance, and genomics-driven (or ???personalized???) cancer medicine. He published the first genome sequencing studies of aggressive primary prostate cancer, and has led other major sequencing initiatives in prostate cancer, melanoma and head/neck cancers. This work identified multiple new cancer genes and uncovered mechanisms by which complex rearrangements arise. At the Broad Institute, he leads the Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia, a collaboration with Novartis that involves a genomic and pharmacological study of ~1000 human cancer cell lines to characterize sensitivity and resistance to anticancer agents.

    Dr. Garraway is perhaps best known for his contributions to precision cancer medicine. He described the first high-throughput adaptation of a genomic technology to profile human tumors for hundreds of ???actionable??? cancer gene mutations. This provided a basis for tumor mutation profiling as a means to stratify cancer patients for clinical trial enrollment and, in the future, optimal therapeutic choices. He also demonstrated the promise of massive parallel sequencing as a clinical tumor genomic profiling approach. This research has inspired personalized medicine initiatives at many cancer centers worldwide.

    Dr. Garraway has been the recipient of several awards and honors, including the Minority Scholar Award from the American Association of Cancer Research, the Partners in Excellence Award, and the Burroughs-Wellcome Fund Career Award in the Biomedical Sciences. In the fall of 2007, he was awarded one of the first prestigious New Innovator Awards from the National Institutes of Health. In 2009, he was inducted into the American Society for Clinical Investigation.

  • Anti-Aging Medicines: The Beginning of the End of the Beginning
    • - Richard Miller, MD, PhD, Nathan Shock Center on Aging, University of Michigan (2012/08/24)
    • - Category : Gerontology
    The Geroscience Interest Group (GSIG) cordially invites you to the seminar presented by Dr. Richard Miller. Dr. Miller is a Professor of Pathology and Director of the Nathan Shock Center on Aging at the University of Michigan. He directs one of the three laboratories involved in the NIA-sponsored Interventions Testing Program (ITP) and in that capacity made a seminal contribution to the discovery that rapamycin increases lifespan in mice. His seminar will provide further research information on the ITP, rapamycin and other anti-aging interventions. He has a wide interest in biogerontology, with a special emphasis on the use of animal models to study mechanisms regulating longevity and stress resistance.

    The Geroscience Interest Group (GSIG) is a newly formed trans-NIH group aimed at enhancing opportunities for discussion of the intersection between the biology of aging and the biology of diseases and conditions that are of interest across ICs. It is focused on basic biology, but with a longer view towards translation.
