SUMMARY:Seminar with Nicholas Klemen\, MD (Duke University School of Medicine)
DESCRIPTION:In person only | Hosted by Alex Rubinsteyn\, PhD \nAbout the Speaker:  \nNicholas Klemen\, M.D.\, is a surgical oncologist who specializes in the treatment of gastrointestinal tumors\, particularly those of the colon\, pancreas\, and liver. His work focused on advancing immunotherapy for patients with difficult-to-treat gastrointestinal cancers\, which typically do not respond to FDA-approved immunotherapy regimens. \n

SUMMARY:LCCC Seminar with Joel Saltz\, MD (Stony Brook University)
DESCRIPTION:The UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center\, in collaboration with the UNC Computational Medicine Program\n \n——— \n\nAbout the Speaker:   Dr. Joel Saltz is a Distinguished Professor of Biomedical Informatics at Stony Brook University and a pioneer in computational pathology and AI. A Fellow of the American College of Medical Informatics\, he has founded three Biomedical Informatics departments. He holds an MD and a PhD in Computer Science\, completed his residency at Johns Hopkins\, and is board-certified in Clinical Pathology.\n\nAbstract: Routine Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E) stained slides harbor a wealth of diagnostic and prognostic information that extends far beyond what conventional visual inspection can extract. This talk traces the evolution of computational pathology\, from foundational digital infrastructure like the Virtual Microscope to advanced deep learning methodologies. I will discuss our recent pathology AI research\, including latent conditional diffusion models for predicting immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining directly from H&E\, the generation of privacy-preserving synthetic tissues\, explainable pathology AI\, and techniques for extracting pathology synoptic elements using biologically interpretable models. I will also describe our collaborative work with UNC in breast cancer\, focusing on the predictive value of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) and the use of quantitative tissue morphology to accurately forecast clinical outcomes.

SUMMARY:Seminar with Irina Kufareva\, PhD (UC San Diego)
DESCRIPTION:In person only | Hosted by Dr.Yinglong Miao \nResearch Summary: The Kufareva lab studies structural\, molecular\, and architectural principles of cell responses to stimuli and drugs via computational approaches. Our work is mostly focused on G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). We use conventional and AI-powered molecular modeling to unlock the therapeutic potential of orphan and understudied GPCRs. \n  \n \n  \nABOUT THE SPEAKER:  \nIrina Kufareva\, PhD\, Professor \nSkaggs School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences \nUC San Diego \nEducation: S.c. laude M.S. in Mathematics and Computer Science (1994) from Tomsk State University\, Russia; Ph.D. in Computer Science (2000) from Tomsk State University\, Russia \nPostdoctoral training: Computational Structural Biology (2004-2009)\, The Scripps Research Institute\, La Jolla\, CA \nSelected Professional Experiences: Editorial Board member\, npj Drug Discovery (2024-present)\, NIH DMPB study section standing member and alternate chair (2023-2025); NIH DDNS study section\, standing member (2022); NIH BPNS study section\, standing member (2021); co-organizer\, community-wide GPCR Dock assessments (2010\, 2013\, 2021); ad hoc reviewer for NSF CLP PSD panel (2019) and NIH NCF study section (2017). \nSelected Honors \n\nRecipient of the UC San Diego VCHS Excellence Award in Mentorship\, Service and Research\nInvited presentations at the CHI Discovery On Target Conference\, Boston\, MA (2022)\, Gordon Research Conference on Mol.
