    Dr. Dusan Bogunovic is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Microbiology, Department of Pediatrics at Mindich Child Health and Development Institute at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York. He obtained his PhD in Immunology at NYU Medical School where he studied innate immune signaling in dendritic cells as a function of their ability to mount an adaptive immune response against melanoma. That work has inspired two clinical trials. He did his postdoctoral fellowship at The Rockefeller University with Jean-Laurent Casanova where he studied how host genetics contribute to infection susceptibility. Subsequently, after starting his own lab, his group defined an essential role for free intracellular ISG15 and USP18 in regulation of Type I Interferon-induced inflammation (Nature, 2015), and identified USP18-deficient individuals and detailed the molecular mechanisms underlying their Type I IFN-mediated inflammation (JEM, 2016). More recently, his group discovered that ISG15-deficient individuals have augmented anti-viral responses (Nature Commun, 2016). This discovery, which is now followed up by the Bogunovic lab in developing ISG15 inhibitors as broad-spectrum antivirals, was included in the "top ten discoveries with the potential to change the world" by Scientific American and lead him serve as an advisor to Mr. Bill Gates on the current state of antivirals in 2017. Dr. Bogunovic has received several awards including the 2015 Milstein Award for Young Investigators by the International Cytokine and Interferon Society, the 2016 Young Investigator Award by the American Society for Microbiology and the 2017 Lamport Research Award by Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. Dr. Bogunovic???s talk will outline his research interests, which encompass human immunogenetics in the context of infectious, inflammatory, and neoplastic diseases, and type I IFN-mediated inflammation.

  • NIH VideoCast - Encoding and scaling pain through specific cell types
    • - Patrik Ernfors, Ph.D., Karolinska Institute (2017/11/07)
    • - Category : Neuroscience
    NIH Neuroscience Series Seminar

    Two main directions of research are conducted in Dr. Ernfors group - understanding how complex sets of modality specific sensory neurons codes for somatic sensation and understanding the biology of glioblastoma.

    The problem of pain continues to grow as population age, but there has been a difficulty to develop new useful analgesic drugs. Almost 1 in 5 of the population has an ongoing pain problem, with 7% suffering debilitating pain. Little remains known regarding the actual cellular and molecular complexity during pain transduction, simply because of lack of knowledge on the sensory neuron types conducting somatosensation and pain. A major focus of the lab is to determine the full cellular and molecular complexity of pain and unravel the critical cell types driving pain in particular types of pain disorders. For this purpose, they are using unbiased identification and classification of sensory cell types in rodents and non-human primates and exploit this knowledge to reveal their participation in acute, inflammatory and neuropathic pain using mouse genetics. Hence, the overall aim is to provide knowledge on the existence of defined types of nociceptive cells and assign their participation to particular types of pain states.

  • NIH VideoCast - Transforming Electronic Health Records from Annoyances to Assistants: A Research Agenda for the Next Decade

    NLM Informatics Lecture Series

    Clinical informatics research, and before that, medical informatics research, has made great strides in developing tools to help clinicians improve clinical decision-making and patient care. Yet, electronic health records (EHR) systems today show little aptitude for even simple tasks, like retrieving relevant patient information, while suppressing that which is irrelevant. When bringing artificial intelligence to bear, the best EHRs seem to do is to overwhelm us with alerts that a clinician must override to take action. When the ???learning health system??? attempts to use data from these systems, it must rely on indirect methods, such as machine learning and natural language processing, to figure out what was actually going on with the patient. The advances that have been made to bring decision support into EHRs rely on formally represented ??? that is structured and coded ??? data, such as problem lists, laboratory results and medication lists. What???s missing is a formal representation of the clinical cognition of the patient???s situation: what we think is going on, what our goals are, what we are trying to do about it, and why we have chosen to do it that way. Adding such information to the EHR would enable informaticians to enhance their tools in ways that will improve situational awareness, reduce information overload, make decision support systems provide more relevant knowledge to clinicians, and enable clinical researchers to draw more solid inferences from observational data. Informatics research is needed to understand what needs to be captured, determine how it should be represented, design user interfaces to minimize the effort required, and develop tools that ultimately reduce the work of clinical documentation by reducing redundant data entry, anticipating and executing work plans, and improve the quality and efficiency of patient care. Dr. Cimino will provide illustrations of the formal representation and use of clinical cognition and present a roadmap for research, development and education toward that goal.

    NIH Neuroscience Series Seminar

    The Clapham laboratory moved to the Janelia Research Campus in July 2017 and continued working on the ion channels and calcium signals. They have two major interests at present. First, they are interested in the ion channels in primary cilia and how they affect signaling pathways, such as Hedgehog, in embryonic and mature neurons and glia of the hippocampus. They are also pursuing the cryoEM structures of the two main channels of primary cilia so that they can understand their gating.

    Second, Clapham lab is interested in understanding the two unusual ion channels, TRPM7 and TRPM6. These channels are in all cells, and when genetically deleted, are lethal. The channels are unique in that they possess active kinase domains that when cleaved, enter the nucleus and phosphorylate distinct residues on histones that control chromatin accessibility and thus transcription. Answering these questions will require electrophysiology, advanced light microscopy, mouse genetics, and structural approaches.

  • NIH VideoCast - Learning to distinguish the good from the bad: Neural systems underlying reinforcement learning

    Director`s Seminar Series

    The section on Learning and Decision making studies the neural circuitry and computational mechanisms that underlie reinforcement learning. Reinforcement learning (RL) is the behavioral process of learning what we like and do not like from experience. While some preferences are innate, many are learned over time. There are few areas in systems neuroscience where a theory has linked a neural mechanism to behavior as successfully as RL. The standard model of RL, developed in the mid-1990s, assumes that dopamine neurons code reward prediction errors (RPEs). RPEs are the difference between the reward that is received and the reward that was predicted. These dopaminergic RPEs are then communicated to the basal ganglia, specifically the striatum, because of its substantial dopamine innervation. The striatal neurons integrate RPEs to develop representations of the values of choices, i.e. our preferences. In contrast to the standard model we have recently shown that the amygdala, a structure in the medial temporal lobe, has a larger role in RL than the ventral striatum (VS). In addition, the role of the VS depends on the reward environment. When rewards are predictable, the VS has almost no role in learning whereas when rewards are less predictable the VS plays a larger role. These data outline a more specific role for the VS in RL than is attributed to it by current models. Given that the VS has been implicated in depression, particularly adolescent depression, this delineation of the contribution of the VS to normal behavior may help inform hypotheses about the mechanisms and circuitry underlying depression.
