SUMMARY:Medicine Grand Rounds- Dr. Amanda Nelson presents: " A discussion on the application of AI tools to answer clinical questions around diagnosis\, phenotyping\, prognosis\, and precision medicine using examples from investigators at UNC."
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Nelson is a board-certified internist and rheumatologist with a Masters in Clinical Research in Epidemiology. She spends one day per week in the clinic\, divided between general rheumatology and musculoskeletal ultrasound\, and is involved in fellow education and mentoring. Her research is focused on a variety of aspects of imaging in osteoarthritis (OA)\, including the contribution of bone shape to OA risk\, novel methodologies for the analysis of large and complex datasets including machine learning\, and assessment of the whole-body burden of OA. Also\, Dr. Nelson is co-PI of the Johnston County OA Project\, a 30-year community-based prospective cohort of OA\, multiple chronic conditions\, pain\, and disability in Black and White men and women\, and its new enrollment phase\, the Johnston County Health Study. Last but not least\, she is also the Director of the Phenotyping and Precision Medicine Resource Core of the UNC Core Center for Clinical Research (CCCR).

SUMMARY:Medicine Grand Rounds- Dr. Samuel Wilson presents: “Transformative therapies for Sickle Cell disease are here: Where do we go next?”
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Samuel Wilson is a clinical assistant professor in the Division of Hematology at UNC. His research interests include understanding and improving the health outcomes of people living with sickle cell disease (SCD)\, with a focus on young adults. He is currently studying how to better manage iron overload in SCD\, and is developing biomarkers of accelerated aging in SCD\, which may yield additional insight into individuals living with SCD that are at risk for future complications.

SUMMARY:Medicine Grand Rounds- Dr. Brian Jensen presents: "Do alpha-blockers incur cardiovascular risk in patients with BPH? Recent collaborative ventures in translational and clinical research"
DESCRIPTION:Brian Jensen is an Associate Professor of Medicine and Pharmacology at the University of North Carolina School of Medicine. Dr. Jensen is a physician-scientist with a clinical and investigative focus on heart failure.  He has clinical certification in Advanced Heart Failure/Transplantation and directs the UNC Cardio-oncology clinic. His laboratory uses mouse and cell culture models to study the molecular response to myocardial injury with a focus on adrenergic receptor biology and the cardiotoxicity of targeted cancer therapies.

SUMMARY:Medicine Grand Rounds- Dr. Kevan Herold presents: Finding\, Preventing\, and Reversing Type 1 Diabetes
DESCRIPTION:My background and research are in translational immunology. I am interested in understanding the basis for autoimmune diseases and developing new therapies based on our understanding of disease mechanisms. My focus has largely been in the field of autoimmune Type 1 diabetes. The work encompasses basic laboratory work as well as clinical studies to understand the regulation of autoreactive T cells to clinical trials that involve novel therapeutics. As part of these studies\, my lab has been very interested in the analysis of beta cell function in Type 1 diabetes and identifying the cellular mechanisms that can protect them from immune killing. We have also been studying the development of autoimmune diabetes in patients with cancers who are treated with checkpoint inhibitors. Our clinical and basic studies are focused on understanding how beta cells are destroyed and react to inflammation. Finally\, with the COVID-19 pandemic\, we have been studying the immunologic basis for responses in children and adults who are hospitalized with COVID-19 to understand the mechanisms that can lead to disease protection.
