DESCRIPTION:“ The Role of the Apical Junctional Complex in Gut Health ”  \nYounggeon Jin\, DVM\, PhD\nPostdoctoral Research Associate\nGastrointestinal Physiology Laboratory\nCollege of Veterinary Medicine\nNorth Carolina State University  \n“My long-term goal is to understand how the apical junctional complex\, including tight and adherens junction\, can be manipulated for therapeutic purposes in patients with digestive diseases. In my current research\, I study the role of adherens junctions in regulation of intestinal epithelial permeability and differentiations in ClC-2 deficient mice. I also study mechanisms of action of the barrier protective   pharmaceutical agent larazotide in an anoxia-induced intestinal injury model.” \nConference Streamed Live: https://cgibd.my.webex.com\nMeeting #: 624 562 559\nAudio connection: 1-510-338-9438\nMeeting Password: 5bDkYW7Y \n

SUMMARY:CGIBD Research Seminar - “ Early life and environmental factors in Eosinophilic Esophagitis: Unraveling the mystery of EoE ” by Elizabeth Jensen\, MPH\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:“ Early life and environmental     factors in Eosinophilic Esophagitis: Unraveling the mystery of EoE ”  \nElizabeth Jensen\, MPH\, PhD\nAssistant Professor\nDepartment of Epidemiology & Prevention\nWake Forest School of Medicine \nDr. Jensen’s research focuses primarily on etiologic mechanisms for diseases in the pediatric population. Her training was in reproductive\, perinatal\, and pediatric epidemiology and much of her research ahs focused on early life perturbations implicated in future development of disease. \nDr. Jensen has contributed significantly to the epidemiologic literature on eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases. Her research on eosinophilic esophagitis\, incorporates genetic data to investigate ho certain early life factors my contribute to disease development in genetically-susceptible individuals.   She is also evaluating the relationship between treatment approach and growth in children affected by eosinophilic gastrointestinal disease. This body of research may help inform treatment decisions in children diagnosed with eosinophilic esophagitis. \nConference Streamed Live: https://cgibd.my.webex.com\nMeeting #: 624 562 559\nAudio connection: 1-510-338-9438\nMeeting Password: 5bDkYW7Y \n

SUMMARY:CGIBD Research Seminar - “ Does Gastrin Signaling limit the ability of PPIs to prevent Esophageal Cancer? ” by Katherine S. Garman\, MD\, MHS
DESCRIPTION:“ Does Gastrin Signaling limit the ability of PPIs to prevent Esophageal Cancer? ”  \nKatherine S. Garman\, MD\, MHS\nAssociate Professor of Medicine\nDivision of Gastroenterology\nMember of the Molecular and Physiology Institute\nDuke University \nPracticing Gastroenterologist at the Durham VA \nThe Garman lab is focused on mechanisms of esophageal repair and the pathogenesis of Barrett’s metaplasia and esophageal cancer. We work closely with collaborators at NCSU as part of CGIBD’s large animal core and we have developed porcine models or esophageal repair. The porcine models are particularly important to our work as pig esophagus is similar to human due to the presence of esophageal submucosal glands (ESMGs). Much of our work focuses on the role of ESMGs as a protected stem and progenitor cell source in the esophagus. We also use 3D culture models of ESMGs. One our active projects focuses on the effects of gastrin signaling in esophageal repair\, metaplasia and carcinogenesis. \nConference Streamed Live: https://cgibd.my.webex.com\nMeeting #: 624 562 559\nAudio connection: 1-510-338-9438\nMeeting Password: 5bDkYW7Y \n

Buret\, PhD\nProfessor\nDepartments of Biologicals Sciences\, Physiology and Pharmacology\nAssociate Vice-President Research\nUniversity of Calgary \nDr. Buret’s research: Similar inflammatory\, immunologic\, and pathophysiologic events characterize disease processes at mucosal sites such as the intestine and the lung. Critical issues to this   research area include understanding the role of immune cells and mediators\, and the role of cell death\, in the production of disease. The overall aim of my research is to define cell-cell interactions in these systems\, and how such interactions may affect gastrointestinal and pulmonary physiology\, responsiveness\, and inflammation\, in an attempt to develop novel therapeutic strategies. \nConference Streamed Live: https://cgibd.my.webex.com\nMeeting #: 624 562 559\nAudio connection: 1-510-338-9438\nMeeting Password: 5bDkYW7Y \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:CGIBD Research Seminar - “Overcoming an immunological backlash from modern sanitation practices:  The return of the intestinal worm ” by William Parker\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:“Overcoming an immunological backlash from modern sanitation practices: The return of the intestinal worm ”  \nWilliam Parker\, PhD\nAssociate Professor in Surgery\nDuke University Medical Center \nDr. Parker has studied biochemistry and immunology at Duke University since 1993. He is best known for the discovery of the function of the human vermiform appendix (a safe-house for bacteria)\, Dr. Parker has spent the last 15 years looking at fundamental cultural causes of inflammation in Western societies. His work on “biota alteration”\, a concept which evolved from the “hygiene hypothesis”\, has led to the discovery that intestinal worms\, called helminths\, are very supportive of healthy neuropsychiatric function in adults and in children. \nConference Streamed Live: https://cgibd.my.webex.com\nMeeting #: 624 562 559\nAudio connection: 1-510-338-9438\nMeeting Password: 5bDkYW7Y \n  \n

SUMMARY:CGIBD Research Seminar - “Characterizing the colonic and ileal mucosal bacterial community in Crohn’s disease ” by Terry Furey\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:“Characterizing the colonic and ileal mucosal bacterial community in Crohn’s disease ” \nTerry Furey\, PhD\nAssociate Professor\nDepartment of Genetics and the Department of Biology\nThe University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill \nThe Furey lab is interested in understanding IBD heterogeneity at the     molecular and microbial levels. We use high throughput sequencing-based genomic assays to measure gene expression\, chromatin accessibility\, and microbial composition in tissue samples from well-phenotyped Crohn’s disease and non-IBD patients. With these\, we aim to link unique molecular signatures with clinical variables to both uncover CD subtypes associated with disease phenotypes as well as begin elucidating potential cellular mechanisms driving disease. \nConference Streamed Live: https://cgibd.my.webex.com\nMeeting #: 624 562 559\nAudio connection: 1-510-338-9438\nMeeting Password: 5bDkYW7Y \n  \n

Cowan Endowed Chair in Pediatric Research\nDepartment of Pediatrics and Molecular Virology\, Immunology\nDepartment of Medical Genetics\nThe Ohio State University\nThe Research Institute at Nationwide Children’s Hospital \nFor the past 20 years we have focused primarily on immunity to the hepatitis C virus. More recently\, we have studied immunity to the hepatitis E virus to better understand how it       establishes persistence in humans with compromised immunity. To define protective       immune responses\, we have developed rhesus macaque models of acute and persistent HEV infection. Through these studies\, Dr. Feng and I established a close working relationship to define the role of T cells and neutralizing antibodies in prevention of HEV persistence. \nConference Streamed Live: https://cgibd.my.webex.com\nMeeting #: 624 562 559\nAudio connection: 1-510-338-9438 \n
