SUMMARY:Evidence Synthesis Primer (Part 2) – Evaluating Research Evidence: A How-To Guide
DESCRIPTION:DESCRIPTION\nFor the clinical scholar\, a critical evaluation of research evidence is one of the most important skills to develop. The ability to critically evaluate research evidence improves with practice. A foundation of assessment metrics is critical. \nIn this workshop\, participants will be guided in validity assessment and the assessment of the clinical importance of study findings. The workshop will focus on the critical appraisal of treatment\, diagnostic and prognostic evidence. \nPRE-WORK\nSelect from your evidence library a treatment article\, a diagnostic article and a prognostic article. Dr. Daratha’s step by step process for evaluation research evidence can be applied to the research evidence you have selected. \nLEARNING OBJECTIVES\nAt the end of the session\, participants will be able to: \n\nCritically evaluate a treatment study\nCritically evaluate a diagnostic study\nCritically evaluate a prognostic study\n\nSCHEDULE OF ACTIVITIES\n\n12:00-12:05pm – Welcome\n12:05-1:25pm – Presentation + Questions and Answer Section\n1:25-1:30pm – Thank You and Closing\n\n\n  \nABOUT THE SPEAKER\nKenn B. Daratha\, PhD is a bioinformatics and biostatistical scientist with an extensive publication record. His industry experience includes Chief Information Officer for a multi-hospital system and lead architect for a data warehouse and decision support system for a large health insurance company. Dr. Daratha has led and mentored research teams in the use of electronic health records (EHR) data in a variety of disciplines for more than 30 years. He is the chief architect on the CURE-CKD registry that stores longitudinal clinical and administrative data on millions of patients extracted from multiple EHRs. He teaches evidence-based practice\, research methods and quality improvement courses in the Providence Sacred Heart Medical Center & Gonzaga University Doctoral Program in Nurse Anesthesia.

SUMMARY:Biostatistics Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:The Fred Hutch Biostatistics Program hosts seminars featuring presentations by Hutch and outside scientists to share their latest developments and recent research. Each seminar includes an hour-long presentation and discussion during which speakers showcase their work and findings. \nThis seminar will be held on Zoom due to the COVID-19 pandemic. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \nBiostatistics Seminar Series:  \n“Meditations on mediation” \n\n\nMediation analysis studies the extent to which the effect of an exposure on an outcome is mediated by intervening variables. It has become extremely popular in genomics\, where its application has raised several interesting new statistical questions. I will describe a few results in these directions: a surprising property of hypothesis testing in mediation models\, estimation and inference for high-dimensional mediators\, and connections with surrogate markers.

SUMMARY:The Distinguished Seminar Series: Dr. Liqun Luo
DESCRIPTION:The Distinguished Seminar Series features presentations by outstanding thinkers and scientists\, sponsored by the Allen Institute for Brain Science. Distinguished speakers are selected based on the impact of their interdisciplinary research to the neuroscience community. Speakers spend a full day visiting with research staff\, are nominated by members of the Allen Institute\, and selected by a committee of peers. \nWe welcome members of the broader community to join us for these open seminars.

Register for the upcoming seminars below. \n\n\nLiqun Luo | May 20\, 2021\nWiring specificity of neural circuits \n\n\nDeveloping brains utilize a limited number of molecules to specify connection specificity of a much larger number of neurons and synapses. How is this feat achieved? In this talk\, I will first discuss our work using the Drosophila olfactory circuit as a model to address this question. I will then discuss analogous functions of some of the wiring molecules we identified in the fly olfactory circuits also in determining wiring specificity of complex circuits in the mammalian brain\, focusing on the hippocampal network. \nDr. Luo is currently the Ann and Bill Swindells Professor in the School of Humanities and Sciences\, Professor of Biology\, and Professor of Neurobiology by courtesy at Stanford University\, and a Howard Hughes Medical Institute Investigator. He earned his bachelor’s degree in molecular biology from the University of Science and Technology of China. After obtaining his PhD in Brandeis University\, and postdoctoral training at the University of California\, San Francisco\, Dr. Luo started his own lab in the Department of Biology\, Stanford University in December 1996. Together with his postdoctoral fellows and graduate students\, Dr. Luo studies how neural circuits are organized to perform specific functions in adults\, and how they are assembled during development. \n\n\n\n \nREGISTER

SUMMARY:Neuroscience without Neurons: Bodies without Brains and Other Musings in Science
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: \nManu Prakash\nInstitution: \nStanford University | Associate Professor\, Department of Bioengineering\nSeminar date: \nMonday\, May 24\, 2021 – 12:00 to 13:00\nLocation: \nZoom\n\nWe use interdisciplinary approaches including theory and experiments to understand how computation is embodied in biological matter. Examples include cognition in single cell protists and morphological computing in animals with no neurons and origins of complex behavior in multi-cellular systems. We will also share new tools to enable “virtual reality arena” for single cells – enabling never before seen behavior of single cells over multiple spatial and temporal scales. Broadly\, these new tools for studying non-model organisms have significant implications for studying life in the ocean – addressing fundamental questions such as how do cells sense ecological parameters or “cell biology of climate change”. Finally\, we are dedicated towards inventing and distributing “frugal science” tools to democratize access to science (previous inventions used worldwide: Foldscope\, Abuzz)\, diagnostics of deadly diseases like malaria and convening global citizen science communities to tackle planetary scale environmental challenges such as mosquito surveillance or plankton surveillance by citizen sailors mapping the ocean in the age of Anthropocene. \n\nFlyer: \n Prakash Seminar_2021.pdf\nPeople: \nClemens Cabernard\nFields of interest:\nCell and Molecular Biology\, Marine Biology\, Neurobiology
