Frontiers of Science
September 26th at 12:00
Onsite event
in Arje Scheinin auditorium, Dentalia
Prof. James C. Costello, University of Colorado, USA
A novel mechanism of chemotherapy resistance by the regulation of volume regulated anion channels
Host: Teemu Daniel Laajala (teelaa@utu.fi)
Coffee and sandwich at 11:45, first come first served!
Six PhD researchers and early-career postdocs are welcome to have a lunch and discuss with Prof. Costello after the seminar. This is a great possibility to learn hosting skills in friendly environment and create connections for future. Everyone is welcome to join, BioCity Turku will offer the lunch.

Today, we have the ability to take a snapshot of the tranional activity of genes, identify mutations, and quantify the protein and metabolite content of cells. All of these measurements can be made at a systems-wide level. These data present the potential to greatly improve our ability to characterize and treat disease; however, the rate of data production is far outpacing our ability to analyze, interpret, and ultimately build predictive tools in medicine. Costello lab takes a complementary dry and wet lab approach to close the gap between raw data and biological understanding. Their dry lab research focuses on developing and implementing computational tools that distill this large pool of genome-scale data into actionable hypothesis. Costello wet lab research brings the computational modeling to the bench the aim is to characterize the genomic components that contribute to drug mode of action in cancer biology.
