SUMMARY:Nir Barzilai with Dr. Nathan Price - Health Span\, Life Span\, and the New Science of Longevity
DESCRIPTION:Methuselah lived to 969 years old\, according to the Bible. In our recent age\, Jeanne Calmet holds the title as the oldest person who ever lived. She lived to be 122 years and 164 days old. There’s a woman in Japan\, Kane Tanaka\, who is currently 118. Jiroemon Kimuri\, also from Japan\, is the oldest man of all-time\, living to 116 years and 54 days. How did they do it? How do some people avoid the deterioration and weakness that plagues many of their peers decades early? Is it luck\, or something else? Is it possible to grow older without getting sicker? Could a 90-year-old not look a day over 50? \nIn Age Later\, Dr. Nir Barzilai\, a pioneer in aging research\, looks both at the four age-related diseases that take most of us (diabetes\, cancer\, heart disease\, and Alzheimer’s) and at SuperAgers (people who have maintained active lives well into their 90s who’ve never experienced any of those diseases). What can we learn from these subjects\, who have not only reached a ripe old age\, but have further ripened the older they get? Dr. Barzilai reveals the secrets of these SuperAgers and the scientific discoveries so that we can mimic some of their natural resistance to the aging process. This isn’t saying\, we’ll live to 969\, but\, for all of us\, there’s still plenty of life yet to live. \nDr. Nir Barzilai is the founding Director of the Institute for Aging Research at Albert Einstein College of Medicine and the Nathan Shock Center for Excellence in the Basic Biology of Aging and the Einstein Glenn Center for the Biology of Human Aging. He is also the Scientific Director of the American Federation for Aging Research (AFAR).

SUMMARY:Run of Hope
DESCRIPTION:The Run of Hope Seattle is a 5k run or walk to raise money and awareness for pediatric brain tumor research at Seattle Children’s Hospital. Since 2009\, the Pediatric Brain Tumor Research Guild and Four Seasons Hotel Seattle have partnered to present this very special event. In recent years\, Run of Hope Seattle has become the most successful grassroots fundraising event for Seattle Children’s Guild Association\, sending nearly $7 million directly to research for pediatric brain tumor treatments.\nWe are very hopeful that this September we will be able to gather in some way in person together. There will be a virtual option as well for those that would like to participate this way. Details to come based on upcoming local guidelines\, but the date is set regardless. Mark your calendars\, gather your teams and get ready to raise money for research and especially to celebrate\, remember and honor the kids who have faced pediatric brain tumors.

SUMMARY:2021 Neuropixels Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Neuropixels probes represent a major advance in neural recording technology. Developed by IMEC in collaboration with the Allen Institute\, University College London\, and Janelia Research Campus\, these probes can simultaneously measure spiking activity from hundreds of neurons distributed across the brain. Neuropixels are currently available to order through Neuropixels.org and are described in our publication in Nature. \nAt this virtual workshop\, attendees will learn how to run acute electrophysiology experiments with Neuropixels probes and how to analyze the data using open-source software. \nThe workshop will consist of both interactive seminars and virtual lab demos\, with the goal of teaching you the skills required to set up Neuropixels experiments in your lab. Emphasis will be placed on multi-probe recordings\, which take advantage of the unique capabilities of Neuropixels technology. \nWe are eager to host a diverse audience\, and we encourage trainees\, bench scientists\, and PIs to apply. Some prior experience with in vivo electrophysiology is assumed\, but applicants do not need to have previously used or have placed an order for Neuropixels probes in order to attend. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nWorkshop Topics\nNeuropixels Hardware \n\nWhat tools you’ll need to buy to use Neuropixels in your lab\nBest practices for handling and maintenance\nProbe alignment and insertion\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSoftware \n\nData acquisition with Open Ephys and SpikeGLX\nSpike sorting with Kilosort and phy\nNWB files and the AllenSDK\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTentative Virtual Workshop Schedule\nThursday\, September 23\, 2021\n\n\n\n\nSession \n\n\nTime: Pacific \n\n\n\n\nZoom meeting opens to participants \n\n\n7:30am \n\n\n\n\nParticipant introductions \n\n\n8:00-8:45am \n\n\n\n\nWorkshop overview and introduction to Neuropixels \n\n\n8:45-9:15am \n\n\n\n\nRecording across the brain \n\n\n9:15-9:45am \n\n\n\n\nBreak \n\n\n9:45-10:00am \n\n\n\n\nOverview of Neuropixels pipeline methods \n\n\n10:00-10:30am \n\n\n\n\nSurgery demonstration \n\n\n10:30-11:00am \n\n\n\n\nBreak \n\n\n11:00-11:15am \n\n\n\n\nNeuropixels hardware \n\n\n11:15-11:30am \n\n\n\n\nCalibration/targeting demonstration \n\n\n11:30-11:45am \n\n\n\n\nBreak \n\n\n11:45am-12:00pm \n\n\n\n\nProbe insertion demonstration \n\n\n12:00-12:30pm \n\n\n\n\nQ&A \n\n\n12:30-1:00pm \n\n\n\n\n\nFriday\, September 24\, 2021\n\n\n\n\nSession \n\n\nTime: Pacific \n\n\n\n\nZoom meeting opens to participants \n\n\n7:30am \n\n\n\n\nChronic Neuropixels methods \n\n\n8:00-8:30am \n\n\n\n\nOpen Ephys demonstration \n\n\n8:30-9:00am \n\n\n\n\nBreak \n\n\n9:00-9:15am \n\n\n\n\nSpike sorting with Kilosort \n\n\n9:15-9:45am \n\n\n\n\nPhy curation and quality metrics \n\n\n9:45-10:15am \n\n\n\n\nBreak \n\n\n10:15-10:30am \n\n\n\n\nLarge-scale data analysis \n\n\n10:30-11:00am \n\n\n\n\nAllenSDK and NWB files \n\n\n11:00-11:30am \n\n\n\n\nBreak \n\n\n11:30am-12:00pm \n\n\n\n\nCCF registration demo \n\n\n12:00-12:30pm \n\n\n\n\nQ&A \n\n\n12:30-1:00pm

SUMMARY:2021 Neuropixels Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Neuropixels probes represent a major advance in neural recording technology. Developed by IMEC in collaboration with the Allen Institute\, University College London\, and Janelia Research Campus\, these probes can simultaneously measure spiking activity from hundreds of neurons distributed across the brain. Neuropixels are currently available to order through Neuropixels.org and are described in our publication in Nature. \nAt this virtual workshop\, attendees will learn how to run acute electrophysiology experiments with Neuropixels probes and how to analyze the data using open-source software. \nThe workshop will consist of both interactive seminars and virtual lab demos\, with the goal of teaching you the skills required to set up Neuropixels experiments in your lab. Emphasis will be placed on multi-probe recordings\, which take advantage of the unique capabilities of Neuropixels technology. \nWe are eager to host a diverse audience\, and we encourage trainees\, bench scientists\, and PIs to apply. Some prior experience with in vivo electrophysiology is assumed\, but applicants do not need to have previously used or have placed an order for Neuropixels probes in order to attend. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nWorkshop Topics\nNeuropixels Hardware \n\nWhat tools you’ll need to buy to use Neuropixels in your lab\nBest practices for handling and maintenance\nProbe alignment and insertion\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSoftware \n\nData acquisition with Open Ephys and SpikeGLX\nSpike sorting with Kilosort and phy\nNWB files and the AllenSDK\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTentative Virtual Workshop Schedule\nThursday\, September 23\, 2021\n\n\n\n\nSession \n\n\nTime: Pacific \n\n\n\n\nZoom meeting opens to participants \n\n\n7:30am \n\n\n\n\nParticipant introductions \n\n\n8:00-8:45am \n\n\n\n\nWorkshop overview and introduction to Neuropixels \n\n\n8:45-9:15am \n\n\n\n\nRecording across the brain \n\n\n9:15-9:45am \n\n\n\n\nBreak \n\n\n9:45-10:00am \n\n\n\n\nOverview of Neuropixels pipeline methods \n\n\n10:00-10:30am \n\n\n\n\nSurgery demonstration \n\n\n10:30-11:00am \n\n\n\n\nBreak \n\n\n11:00-11:15am \n\n\n\n\nNeuropixels hardware \n\n\n11:15-11:30am \n\n\n\n\nCalibration/targeting demonstration \n\n\n11:30-11:45am \n\n\n\n\nBreak \n\n\n11:45am-12:00pm \n\n\n\n\nProbe insertion demonstration \n\n\n12:00-12:30pm \n\n\n\n\nQ&A \n\n\n12:30-1:00pm \n\n\n\n\n\nFriday\, September 24\, 2021\n\n\n\n\nSession \n\n\nTime: Pacific \n\n\n\n\nZoom meeting opens to participants \n\n\n7:30am \n\n\n\n\nChronic Neuropixels methods \n\n\n8:00-8:30am \n\n\n\n\nOpen Ephys demonstration \n\n\n8:30-9:00am \n\n\n\n\nBreak \n\n\n9:00-9:15am \n\n\n\n\nSpike sorting with Kilosort \n\n\n9:15-9:45am \n\n\n\n\nPhy curation and quality metrics \n\n\n9:45-10:15am \n\n\n\n\nBreak \n\n\n10:15-10:30am \n\n\n\n\nLarge-scale data analysis \n\n\n10:30-11:00am \n\n\n\n\nAllenSDK and NWB files \n\n\n11:00-11:30am \n\n\n\n\nBreak \n\n\n11:30am-12:00pm \n\n\n\n\nCCF registration demo \n\n\n12:00-12:30pm \n\n\n\n\nQ&A \n\n\n12:30-1:00pm

SUMMARY:Open for (Cell) Science: Allen Cell and Structure Segmenter
DESCRIPTION:An open source tool for 3D segmentation of intracellular structures in fluorescence microscopy images\nThe Allen Cell and Structure Segmenter is a Python-based open source toolkit that enables users to combine classic image segmentation with iterative deep learning workflows. We developed a set of 20 classic image segmentation workflows that serve as a “lookup table” reference and starting point for users\, and also made this available as a plugin for the Napari viewer. The iterative deep learning workflow can take over when the classic segmentation workflow is insufficient. Two straightforward “human-in-the-loop” curation strategies convert a set of classic image segmentation workflow results into a set of 3D ground truth images for iterative model training without the need for manual painting in 3D. This webinar will prepare you to use the Allen Cell and Structure Segmenter in your research to process 3D fluorescent images for quantitative analysis. Presented by Kimberly R. Metzler\, PhD\, Senior Scientific Program Manager\, and Kaytlyn Gerbin\, PhD\, Scientist. \nREGISTER
