SUMMARY:Summer Workshop on the Dynamic Brain
DESCRIPTION:The Summer Workshop on the Dynamic Brain is an intensive\, project-based residential course with a focus on the neurobiology of sensory processing\, coding\, and neural population dynamics. This program is intended for researchers at the graduate and postdoctoral level with an interest in developing the intersection of their scientific knowledge and their computational skills. \nFounded by Adrienne Fairhall and Christof Koch\, the Summer Workshop on the Dynamic Brain is co-hosted by the Allen Institute for Brain Science and the Computational Neuroscience Center at the University of Washington with additional support from the Simons Foundation’s Collaboration for the Global Brain. It is directed by Drs. Michael A. Buice\, Saskia de Vries\, Adrienne Fairhall\, Shawn Olsen\, and Eric Shea-Brown. \nThe workshop is geared towards graduate students and postdoctoral fellows in neuroscience\, biology\, physics\, engineering\, and computer science as well as other early-career researchers at the equivalent level. Ideal candidates have a planned or established research agenda related to the course topics. \nWorkshop Details\nWorkshop dates: August 21 – September 4\, 2022 \nOptional Python boot camp: August 20-21\, 2022 \nApplication deadline: Tuesday\, February 1\, 2022\, at 11:59pm Pacific Time \nPreference will be given to advanced graduate students and postdocs. Applicants must have completed an undergraduate degree to be considered for the workshop. International applications are welcome. \nCost: Conference fees\, housing and meals during the workshop will be covered by the organizers. Additional expenses\, including transportation to and from Seattle and incidentals\, are the responsibility of the attendee. There is no additional cost to participate in the Python boot camp. \nApplicant notification: All applicants will be notified of the decision on their application by April 1\, 2022. \nBy the end of the course\, students will have: \n\n\nDeveloped an understanding of the neuroanatomy and neurophysiology of visual coding. \n\n\nLearned about optical and neurophysiological methods for measuring cell populations and about the analysis and interpretation of such data in visual coding. \n\n\nDeveloped their skills in developing data models\, coding\, and big data approaches. \n\n\nAttended lectures by Allen Institute for Brain Science staff and visiting instructors on current research in visual coding and neural dynamics. \n\n\nCompleted a collaborative project with other workshop students using open datasets from the Allen Institute for Brain Science\, with the potential to extend the project beyond the workshop as an ongoing collaboration with other students or as part of a dissertation. \nThroughout the course\, students attend lectures by Allen Institute for Brain Science staff and additional visiting instructors. Lecture topics include neuroanatomy and neurophysiology of cortex\, neuronal cell types and cortical layers\, connectomics\, optical and electrophysiological methods for measuring cell populations\, theories and modeling of neocortex and associated structures\, big data approaches\, and perceptual and behavioral neuroscience\, with a focus on vision. \nAll tutorials and provided software packages use the Python programming language. The workshop includes an optional Python bootcamp and ongoing software tutorials in modeling\, data science approaches\, and statistical analysis implementation. Previous experience with Python is not required or expected. It is highly recommended that students have some previous coding experience. \nStudents will have the opportunity to receive training with featured large-scale datasets generated by the Allen Institute for Brain Science\, including the Allen Brain Observatory Visual Coding and Neuropixels datasets. Other Allen Institute resources are available for students to explore\, including pre-release data. datasets featured in previous workshops\, and modeling tools. \nA core feature of the workshop curriculum is a computational neuroscience/data science research project. With faculty guidance\, students collaborate to develop a project that explores these open data sets. The students present their project proposals at the end of the first week of the course and the outcome of their work at the conclusion of the workshop to faculty and fellow participants. Previous projects from this course have been developed into publications and presented at scientific conferences.

SUMMARY:2022 From the Laboratory to Leadership – Virtual Fall Program
DESCRIPTION:September 7\, September 21\, October 5\, October 19 (4-day program); 8:30 AM – 3:30 PM \nIt’s an incredibly exciting time for the life science industry. Today\, our clients are evolving at a tremendous pace and achieving levels of success that are incredible. Whether they are launching their first collaboration\, entering the clinic or receiving regulatory approval for their first drug or medical device\, managing growth and change are at the top of everyone’s mind. With this excitement\, also comes stress\, sweaty palms\, sleepless nights\, feelings of incompetence and increasing numbers of employee relations issues\, as technically trained individuals find themselves promoted to management roles in order to meet the business needs of the organization. \nCompletely redesigned from the ground up\, the 25th Anniversary Edition of From the Laboratory to Leadership\, develops the skills and knowledge of first-time and developing managers in life science companies\, taking them from competent technical managers to capable business leaders. Leveraging the knowledge gained from the original groundbreaking program\, which has been delivered to over 7\,500 leaders from over 1000 of the industry’s leading life science companies\, this entirely new program provides participants with the management foundation to successfully hire\, develop\, and deploy top talent in their organizations. Whether you are a start-up or a fully integrated company\, the program is a “game changer” for your employees and your organization. \nThe program begins by providing the participants with the opportunity to define their personal leadership style as the result of exploring their leadership philosophies\, strengths and personality type. These strengths and preferences are then mapped to the organizational needs\, enabling each manager to define their program goals and to begin creating their professional development plan. Each plan is designed to provide the company with a minimum of a two time return on the program investment. Foundational and more advanced skills and tools are then introduced including goal setting for individual and project success\, performance management of individuals and teams\, priority management to enable focus and efforts to be targeted on the high impact areas\, interviewing and selecting top performers and communicating effectively. Team development\, delegation and the impact of emotional intelligence on performance are just a few of the additional areas that provide “ah ha” opportunities for everyone in the room. \nThe sessions fly by\, as participants engage with one another as individuals\, teammates\, and sometimes as instructors. The use of learning pods\, technology and your “companies as learning labs”\, ensures participants establish and enhance their relationships in their workplaces\, build peer relationships\, gain insights into real time issues\, goals and needs\, and apply industry tested business solutions that impact your company’s performance and bottom line. \n“The techniques we learned in this course helps our group be much more efficient and effective in our meetings and deadlines\, while increasing communication and that makes other group members happier.” ~ Stuart Anderson\, Research Associate II\, NanoString Technologies \nThis four session program held virtually includes company and industry relevant case studies\, practical and engaging exercises\, down-loadable support tools for each session\, and a manual designed to personalize the training for each participant. A tremendous value for a $2\,795 investment per participant for Life Science Washington members and $3\,295 for non members. \n\n\n\nSessions are limited to twenty participants. Enroll today!

SUMMARY:Distinguished Seminar Series - Corey Hartwell
DESCRIPTION:Development and neural diversity of septal nuclei \nSeptal nuclei in the basal forebrain have critical roles in regulating emotional states including fear\, anxiety\, and aggression. Dysfunction of septal neurons is thought to play a significant role in the pathophysiology of a variety of psychiatric disorders including schizophrenia\, bipolar disorder and depression. The septum can be classified into medial (MS)and lateral (LS) regions. The medial septum is composed of cholinergic\, GABAergic and glutamatergic neurons that primarily project to the hippocampus. The lateral septum is composed of a diverse array of GABAergic projection neurons that have reciprocal connections with numerous brain regions known to regulate emotional and motivational states. It is currently unclear how septal neuronal diversity and circuit wiring are specified during development. Using molecular genetics and single-cell/nuclei RNA-seq we have begun to unravel the developmental logic for producing diverse neural cell types in the septum. Our future work is focused on understanding the specific contribution of developmentally specified neural cell types in the regulation of internal states carried out by the septum.

SUMMARY:Meghan O’Rourke with Jim Heath
DESCRIPTION:A silent epidemic of chronic illnesses afflicts tens of millions of Americans: These are diseases that are poorly understood\, frequently marginalized\, and can go undiagnosed and unrecognized altogether. In her latest book – The Invisible Kingdom: Reimagining Chronic Illness – renowned writer Meghan O’Rourke delivers a revelatory investigation into this elusive category of “invisible” illness that encompasses autoimmune diseases\, post-treatment Lyme disease syndrome\, and now long COVID\, synthesizing the personal and the universal to help all of us through this new frontier. \nO’Rourke is joined by ISB President Dr. Jim Heath\, who has deeply studied long COVID and its similarities to other chronic illnesses\, to discuss chronic diseases\, how they’ve traditionally been understood and treated\, and what the future holds. \nMeghan O’Rourke is the author of the New York Times bestseller The Invisible Kingdom: Reimagining Chronic Illness and The Long Goodbye\, as well as the poetry collections Sun In Days\, Once\, and Halflife. Her writing has appeared in The Atlantic Monthly\, The New Yorker\, and The New York Times\, and more. The recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship\, a Radcliffe Fellowship\, and a Whiting Nonfiction Award\, she resides in New Haven where she teaches at Yale University and is the editor of The Yale Review. \nDr. Jim Heath is President and Professor at Institute for Systems Biology in Seattle. Heath also has the position of Professor of Molecular and Medical Pharmacology at UCLA. Formerly\, he directed the National Cancer Institute-funded NSB Cancer Center\, was the Elizabeth W. Gilloon Professor of Chemistry at Caltech\, and served as co-director of the Parker Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy at UCLA until 2017.
