SUMMARY:Exploring Career Paths: Taking Your Research to Market Impact
DESCRIPTION:Eighty percent of postdocs and Ph.D. students do something other than enter academia after graduating. If you are curious to explore options for taking your research out into the world as a possible career path\, then this webinar is for you. You will hear about the four paths researchers usually take to create market impact with their research\, and the resources available as you consider this possible career track. Presented by UW CoMotion and the Office of Postdoctoral Affairs. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRSVP FOR THE WEBINAR\n\n\nFeaturing: \nFiona Wills\, Director of Innovation Development Group at UW CoMotion \nFiona’s group guides researchers through project development towards impact through licensing either to an existing company\, to a UW founder-led startup\, or direct-to-user licensing from UW. It encompasses the intellectual property\, material transfer agreement\, innovation management and licensing activities of CoMotion. Fiona’s scientific background is in protein biochemistry and cell biology. \nKatya Cherukumili\, Founder and CEO of Global Water Labs \nDuring her doctoral research\, Katya developed an inexpensive\, locally sourced\, and scalable method to remediate globalgroundwater aquifers contaminated with excess naturally occurring fluoride. She recently deployed technical field pilots in Kenya\, Tanzania\, and India\, where nearly 100 million people are at risk of developing bone deformities and mottled enamel through the consumption of fluoride-contaminated drinking water. Katya’s ongoing research is focused on developing low-cost and environmentally friendly solutions to target heavy metal removal (e.g.\, Cu\, Pb\, Zn) in industrial wastewater and groundwater domestically in Washington State. \nDavid Younger\, Founder and CEO of A-Alpha Bio \nDavid co-founded A-Alpha Bio after completing his Ph.D. in Bioengineering at the University of Washington in 2017. The company is developing a platform called AlphaSeq that uses genetically sequencing to quantitatively and simultaneously measure the affinities of millions of protein-protein interactions. A-Alpha Bio is using this platform in partnership with pharmaceutical companies to discover\, optimize\, and characterize small molecule and protein-based drugs – focusing primarily on infectious disease and oncology. \nGreg Newbloom\, Founder and CEO of Membrion \nGreg founded Membrion in 2016 based on his postdoctoral research with UW Chemical Engineering. He uses silica gel — a nontoxic material often packaged with new shoes and beef jerky — to create a new class of inexpensive\, flexible ceramic membranes that selectively transport ions in liquids. The technology could be used for everything from desalinating water to storing renewable energy in massive batteries. After receiving several rounds of federal grant funding\, Membrion and its nine employees have raised $7.5 million to commercialize the technology. \nStephanie Berger\, Founder of TBDBiotech \nStephanie Berger obtained her Ph.D. in Bioengineering from the University of Washington in 2017. She is now working on launching a venture targeting Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). People suffering from IBD have a poor quality of life and the current treatment for the disease\, requiring injections\, is quite onerous. TBDBiotech’s computationally designed peptides represent a new mode of treatment for IBD: orally administered\, locally active therapy that can be safer\, more convenient\, and less expensive.

SUMMARY:UW Engage Science: How We Learn\, Parasites In The Sound\, Tracking Thunderstorms
DESCRIPTION:Town Hall teams up with UW Engage Science to present local graduate students onstage discussing their cutting-edge research. Take a look at the forefront of research in our region\, and meet the students who are leading the latest wave of scientific discovery. \nA.J. Balatico contends that each person’s learning process is unique to that individual\, and to the context in which they exist. He unpacks the implications of different contexts for learning\, outlining cognitive\, social\, emotional\, cultural\, and motivational—as well as developmental factors in schools\, workplaces\, in person\, and online. He shows us how researchers are developing instructional practices and technologies which support learning for all by studying the internal workings of the brain and how it changes with external influences. Join Balatico to explore topics in cognitive neuroscience from memory\, attention\, and motivation to behaviors and social interactions. \nA.J. Balatico is a Ph.D. student in Learning Sciences and Human Development in the University of Washington’s College of Education with interests in computational neuroscience and educational equity\, especially for science\, technology\, engineering\, and math education. He focuses on how people learn motivation and identities from their experiences. \nThere is increasing evidence that parasites are on the rise in the marine environment\, which means that there may be an increase in infection risk to their preferred hosts. Marine mammals like whales\, dolphins\, seals and sea lions are preferred hosts to parasitic nematodes\, which infect them through the fish that they eat. Natalie Mastick’s research examines whether this increase in parasitism trend also holds true in Puget Sound\, and what it might mean for marine mammal hosts. She relates findings from her deep dive into the Burke Museum’s fish collection where she dissected common prey species to see how parasite abundances had changed. Join Mastick for an exploration of the risk of parasitic infection to marine life in the Puget Sound. \nNatalie Mastick is a Ph.D. student in Aquatic Sciences at UW and a Graduate Fellow with Oceans Initiative. She studies how parasites affect marine mammals in Puget Sound\, using historical ecology to figure out how parasite abundances in fish have changed over the course of the past century. Mastick also works to determine how parasitized the whales that eat those fish species are today using recently collected fecal samples. \nCurrent operational weather models struggle to accurately forecast more than one or two weeks in the future. Tropical thunderstorm activity\, or convection\, greatly impacts global weather at these timescales. Coincidentally\, convection is poorly simulated by current models due to the small scale of its cloud features. Nick Weber demonstrates how global “convection-permitting” weather models can better simulate this tropical convection due to their much finer grid spacing. He outlines the ways in which these models show great promise for improved extended global weather prediction in the future. \nNick Weber is a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Atmospheric Sciences. His research focus is long-term weather prediction\, and how we might be able to improve forecasts with next-generation\, high resolution global models.

SUMMARY:UW Engage Science: How We Learn\, Parasites In The Sound\, Tracking Thunderstorms
DESCRIPTION:Town Hall and UW Engage Science present local graduate students discussing their cutting-edge research. Tune in for a look at the forefront of research in our region\, and meet the students who are leading the latest wave of scientific discovery. \nA.J. Balatico contends that each person’s learning process is unique to that individual\, and to the context in which they exist. He unpacks the implications of different contexts for learning\, outlining cognitive\, social\, emotional\, cultural\, and motivational—as well as developmental factors in schools\, workplaces\, in person\, and online. He shows us how researchers are developing instructional practices and technologies which support learning for all by studying the internal workings of the brain and how it changes with external influences. Join Balatico to explore topics in cognitive neuroscience from memory\, attention\, and motivation to behaviors and social interactions. \nA.J. Balatico is a Ph.D. student in Learning Sciences and Human Development in the University of Washington’s College of Education with interests in computational neuroscience and educational equity\, especially for science\, technology\, engineering\, and math education. He focuses on how people learn motivation and identities from their experiences. \nThere is increasing evidence that parasites are on the rise in the marine environment\, which means that there may be an increase in infection risk to their preferred hosts. Marine mammals like whales\, dolphins\, seals and sea lions are preferred hosts to parasitic nematodes\, which infect them through the fish that they eat. Natalie Mastick’s research examines whether this increase in parasitism trend also holds true in Puget Sound\, and what it might mean for marine mammal hosts. She relates findings from her deep dive into the Burke Museum’s fish collection where she dissected common prey species to see how parasite abundances had changed. Join Mastick for an exploration of the risk of parasitic infection to marine life in the Puget Sound. \nNatalie Mastick is a Ph.D. student in Aquatic Sciences at UW and a Graduate Fellow with Oceans Initiative. She studies how parasites affect marine mammals in Puget Sound\, using historical ecology to figure out how parasite abundances in fish have changed over the course of the past century. Mastick also works to determine how parasitized the whales that eat those fish species are today using recently collected fecal samples. \nCurrent operational weather models struggle to accurately forecast more than one or two weeks in the future. Tropical thunderstorm activity\, or convection\, greatly impacts global weather at these timescales. Coincidentally\, convection is poorly simulated by current models due to the small scale of its cloud features. Nick Weber demonstrates how global “convection-permitting” weather models can better simulate this tropical convection due to their much finer grid spacing. He outlines the ways in which these models show great promise for improved extended global weather prediction in the future. \nNick Weber is a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Atmospheric Sciences. His research focus is long-term weather prediction\, and how we might be able to improve forecasts with next-generation\, high resolution global models. \nPresented by Town Hall Seattle and the University of Washington. \nHaving trouble with registration? \nOur Patron Services line is open a half an hour before each event to provide livestream tech support.

SUMMARY:Neil Shubin: Some Assembly Required
DESCRIPTION:If you think that feathers arose to help animals fly or lungs to help animals walk on land\, you’d be in good company. According to paleontologist Neil Shubin\, you’d also be entirely wrong. Shubin comes to Town Hall with an exploration of the momentous evolutionary transformations that have defined life on our planet—ancient fish evolving to walk on land\, reptiles transforming into birds that fly\, and apelike primates becoming humans that walk\, talk\, and write. Guiding us on the first step from single-celled organisms towards complex beings with bodies\, Shubin draws from his book Some Assembly Required: Decoding Four Billion Years of Life\, from Ancient Fossils to DNA to delve into the mysteries of life. \nHe describes how discoveries of the past fifty years have revolutionized our understanding of how we got here\, and brought us closer to answering one of the great questions of science: was life on earth inevitable or is it an accident that we are here at all? With insight into the latest DNA science and research into prehistoric fossils\, Shubin grants us a window into a multibillion-year evolutionary history filled with twists and turns\, trial and error\, accident and invention. \nNeil Shubin is a paleontologist\, evolutionary biologist\, and author of Your Inner Fish and The Universe Within. He is the Robert R. Bensley Professor of Organismal Biology and Anatomy at the University of Chicago\, and he was elected to the National Academy of Sciences in 2011. \nPresented by Town Hall Seattle. \nHaving trouble with registration? \nOur Patron Services line is open a half an hour before each event to provide livestream tech support.
