DATA SCIENCE FOR THE REGENERATIVE MEDICINE LAB Event Description How can regenerative medicine goals be advanced by having better computational data science platforms. How do we best handle our data, how do we design our experiment so that we are collecting the right data, and how can we optimize that collection knowing how we want it to look. What tools are available to students and faculty that can improve their collection and analysis. Is there a place for machine learning in regenerative medicine, and how would we implement it? Learn all this and more at our DATA SCIENCE WORKSHOP, featuring David [...]

BCREGMED and the Dynamic Brain Circuits in Health & Disease team are excited to offer a full day workshop to facilitate the use of tissue clearing and expansion techniques in the regenerative medicine lab. November 7th 9am-4pm DMCBH Koerner Labs Conference Centre First floor, UBC Hospital Koerner Pavilion 2211 Wesbrook Mall Vancouver, BC Canada V6T 2B5 Purpose Biological specimens are intrinsically difficult to image.  Currently used tools and methods, which cut two-dimensional sections of tissue samples to provide insight into the cellular components, lack in their ability to reveal the systemic nature of tissues and organs which are inherently three-dimensional. On [...]

Who is this workshop for?  Researchers who are struggling with writing manuscripts, grants, research program descriptions for applications, scholarships or thesis. What is this workshop about?  Researchers tell me that writing is hard. They are overwhelmed by our ideas, unsure where to start, and feel lost at times. Melissa E Anders has been developing and implementing grants with scientists for more than 15 years and she has a deep curiosity and understanding about human nature and how we can harness our true selves. It is at this intersection that she draws from to support researchers in making writing easier. In this [...]
