SUMMARY:IlluminationSpace Community Hours
DESCRIPTION:Curious about the Advanced Science Research Center? Learn more about our five research initiatives at the ASRC IlluminationSpace. \nAt the ASRC IlluminationSpace\, located at the Advanced Science Research Center of The Graduate Center of The City University of New York\, students explore five exciting and interconnected areas of science — nanoscience\, photonics\, structural biology\, neuroscience\, and environmental sciences — in a fun and supportive environment to encourage a deeper understanding of how science shapes our everyday lives. \nThrough interactive motion and touchscreen games and engaging conversations with researchers\, visitors learn about the ASRC’s initiatives\, inspiring them to search for science in the world around them. \n  \n\nFamilies\, after-school programs\, and adults are encouraged to visit during Community Hours\, held on the first Monday of each month from 3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. Reservations are encouraged and are required for groups larger than 10. Children under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult.\nHigh school field trips to the ASRC IlluminationSpace are available most Mondays\, Wednesdays\, and Fridays.\n\nField trips and Community Hours are free to participants.

SUMMARY:Engineering Academic Environments to Foster Invention and Innovation
DESCRIPTION:In partnership with CCNY\, the Invention Ambassadors are hosting a special event on fostering invention and innovation.\nSpeakers\nStephen Key\, Mary Kombolias\, Jason Grieves\, Fang (Florence) Lu\, Don McPhreson\, Pratik Shah\, Rachael Walker\, Sabriya Stukes (moderator). \nAgenda\n4:00 p.m.-4:15 p.m. – Introduction and Opening Remarks\n4:15 p.m.-5:30 p.m. – Panel Discussion\n5:30 p.m.-6:00 p.m. – Q&A with Audience and Panel Members \nIn our tech-saturated era\, an abundance of scientific and engineering knowledge risks being left at the bench — knowledge that is imperative in improving the future of our health\, environment\, economies\, and societies. Academic institutions can play a critical role. By training and educating highly skilled and motivated experts to translate their extensive knowledge into practical\, real world solutions\, they can create an environment for invention and innovation to flourish. \nPlease join The City College of New York Master’s in Translational Medicine in partnership with the AAAS-Lemelson Invention Ambassadors program as we discuss 1) the way academic institutions can promote opportunities for students and faculty to invent and develop entrepreneurial endeavors and 2) the ways invention itself can open doors for more people to become inventors. \nRegister online now »\n

SUMMARY:Neuroscience Seminar: Xi Huang\, Ph.D.\, University of Toronto
DESCRIPTION:From fly to mammal: targeting ion channels in brain tumor\nSpeaker:\nXi Huang\, Ph.D.\nUniversity of Toronto \nAbstract\nIon channels are transmembrane proteins that regulate ion flow across cell membrane and accessible for pharmacological intervention. However\, the role of ion channels in brain tumor is largely unexplored. We use multi-disciplinary approaches including bioinformatics\, Drosophila and mouse genetics\, xenograft modeling\, cell biology and electrophysiology to define the mechanisms by which ion channels regulate brain tumorigenesis\, and develop ion channel drugs to treat brain cancer. I will discuss our recent Drosophila genetic study which led to the identification of multiple ion channels that critically regulates the growth of fly brain tumor. Our functional studies using patient-derived cells and preclinical mouse models show that these ion channels play evolutionarily conserved functions to promote malignancy in mammalian medulloblastoma and glioma. Since ion channels represent a large class of drug targets with historic success to treat human diseases\, we leverage brain tumor-specific dependency of specific ion channels to develop precision therapy. \nAbout the Speaker\nCanada Research Chair in Cancer Biophysics\nScientist\, Developmental & Stem Cell Biology Program\, The Hospital for Sick Children\nPrincipal Investigator\, Arthur and Sonia Labatt Brain Tumour Research Centre\nAssistant Professor\, Department of Molecular Genetics\, University of Toronto
