  • Rural Health Disparities: The Interface of Research, Policy, and Public Trust
    • - Claudia R. Baquet, MD, MPH, University of Maryland (2012/02/19)
    • - Category : Health Disparities
    Health Disparities Seminar Series

    Health disparities are a serious problem in rural America. Rural areas, including Appalachia, report higher rates of chronic diseases, such as heart disease, diabetes, and cancer than the general public. Only about 10 percent of physicians practice in rural America despite the fact that nearly one-fourth of the population lives in these areas. This combined with other obstacles like socioeconomic factors, cultural and social differences, and educational shortcomings impede rural Americans from accessing prevention services and treatment necessary for good health.

    In her presentation, Dr. Claudia R. Baquet will discuss current research on evidence-based intervention strategies developed to meet the health care needs of rural Americans. Additionally, Dr. Baquets presentation will put into context some of the policy implications and issues of trust involved in conducting research in rural communities.

    Dr. Baquet is Associate Dean of Policy and Planning and Professor of Medicine at the University of Maryland, School of Medicine. She also serves as the Director of the Bioethics Research Infrastructure Center at the University of Maryland, School of Medicine. Dr. Baquet was Deputy Assistant Secretary Health (Minority Health) at the US DHHS from 1992-1994. She was Associate Director for Cancer Control Science and Chief of the Special Populations Research at the National Cancer Institute. Dr. Baquet has received national recognition for her diverse research on clinical trials, health disparities, and models of care for the medically underserved and minority communities. Her numerous accolades have included the Maryland Governor？？？s Cancer Commission？？？s Abeloff Award for Excellence in Cancer Research, Public Health, and Cancer Control; the Congressional Recognition Award from the US Congress via Congressman Steny Hoyer; and the American Public Health Associations (APHA) 2005 David P. Rall Award for Science and Advocacy in Public Health and Prevention.

  • The Obesity Epidemic: Why Have We Failed?
    • - Dr. Lewis H. Kuller, University of Pittsburgh (2012/02/18)
    • - Category : Wednesday Afternoon Lectures
    Lewis Kuller will discuss how obesity is an example of a common source epidemic due to changes or introduction of new behaviors, i.e. lifestyles, which result in introduction of new agents, such as fast foods or calorically dense foods, into a receptive environment. The development of technology for mass production of low-cost, high-calorically dense foods has resulted in economic advantage, mass marketing, and social acceptability. Over time, this has caused increased risks of obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and cancer, etc. Successful control of the obesity epidemic requires an understanding of the interrelationship between the host, the agents and the environmental factors.

    The NIH Wednesday Afternoon Lecture Series includes weekly scientific talks by some of the top researchers in the biomedical sciences worldwide.

    Neuroscience Seminar Series

    Dr. Deisseroths lab has developed and applied optogenetic methods based on microbial opsin genes, to achieve gain- or loss-of-function of well-defined events within specific cells of living tissue, including freely moving mammals. This talk will cover their recent efforts on optogenetics, including the crystal structure of channelrhodopsin, recent genomic and molecular engineering work to expand the microbial opsin toolkit, the development of novel optogenetic hardware and techniques (based on optical imaging, ofMRI, electrophysiology, and behavior) for control and readout of neural activity, and a number of optogenetic applications relevant to neuropsychiatric disease, spanning anxiety, social behavior dysfunction, fear memory recall, drug abuse, and depression.

    The session will have a panel of program experts commenting on the questions posed in the outline？？？things you do when performing the program job. Variations in methodological preference must be recognized among the different Institutes and Centers. Approaches to the program job learned in this core may be at variance to accustomed ways, and should be first discussed with staff colleagues and supervisors before implementing. New ways to get things done may well be appreciated, but surprises are not often well received.

    While Core Curriculum Part 2 will be VideoCast, participation in person is strongly urged.

  • Genomic Networks in Development and Cancer: Resolving Biomarkers and Therapeutic Targets from a Cloud of Data
    • - Kevin White, Ph.D., The University of Chicago (2012/02/17)
    • - Category : Special
    Systems level approaches to construct abstract molecular networks can lead to predictions about genetic and biochemical functions in cells, organisms and in disease states. I will show examples of this approach from work in my laboratory. In one example we used an integrated experimental and computational approach to construct a large scale functional network in Drosophila melanogaster built around key transcription factors involved in the process of embryonic segmentation. Our network model is based on a combination of gene expression, transcription factor DNA binding site mapping, automated literature mining and protein-protein interaction mapping. We provide a strategy for reducing the dimensionality of the massive networks that result from such integrated whole genome analyses.

    Using results from one factor in particular, we demonstrated that our approach can rapidly translate a finding in a model organism to the development of a therapeutic target in kidney cancer. In another example, we built a large scale network based on gene expression and genome-wide ChIP results for 40 transcription factors, including two dozen Nuclear Receptor (NR) class proteins. Using this NR network we identified novel prognostic signatures for breast cancer survival and recurrence, as well as new therapeutic leads.

    Finally, if time permits I will talk about how we are mining The Cancer Genome Atlas along with data from the Chicago Cancer Genomes Project using the Bionimbus Cloud in order to identify new tumor suppressors and panels of genetic markers capable of classifying cancer subtypes that correspond to patient outcome.

  • Positive and Negative Reinforcement Underlying Adolescent Risk-Taking Behavior

    • - Category : BSSR Lecture Series
    BSSR Lecture Series

    Adolescent risk taking presents a significant public health concern. The continued development of intervention approaches requires assessment strategies that can elucidate the processes underlying risk taking as it develops through adolescence. This presentation focuses on the use of behavioral measures to understand and model the development of adolescent risk taking behavior. Data are drawn from multiple sources including a 5 year longitudinal study funded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) focused on the role of positive reinforcement and a second study funded by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) extending this work to negative reinforcement processes. The presentation will conclude with a consideration of limitations of behavioral assessment approaches as well as future directions aimed at their combination with environmental, genetic, and neurobehavioral assessment.

  • Molecular Dialogues with the Microbiota: Insights from the Zebrafish Intestine
    • - Dr. Karen Guillemin, University of Oregon (2012/02/11)
    • - Category : Wednesday Afternoon Lectures
    My research program investigates how animals co-exist with microorganisms in the spectrum of interactions from mutualism to pathogenesis. We use the model vertebrate, zebrafish, to study the microbial communities of the intestine and ask how these communities influence the development and function of the host. We strive to understand how these systems of host-associated microbial communities assemble, how they function dynamically, and how they evolve. Our work employs genetic manipulations of host and bacteria, gnotobiology, live imaging, and ecological modeling to understand host-microbe interactions at many levels, ranging from molecules to populations.
