SCRC Journal Club 2018-19 schedule

by Manitoba Neuroscience Network

cid:image001.jpg@01D158FE.B69B8D00 /sent on behalf of Katinka Stecina Katinka.stecina(a)umanitoba.ca Everyone is invited! Hello all, In continuation of our SCRC Journal Club seminar series this year we will resume our weekly meetings on Friday November the 9th, 2018. Kindly find attached the schedule for the 2018-2019 SCRC Journal club series. You will notice we will have some invited speakers in addition to trainees. Please note our new time and location - 11am to noon on Fridays in room 405 of Brodie Centre. In our view the main objectives of having a journal club are: 1. Develop and hone critical thinking skills. 2. Develop a breadth of knowledge in the sciences related to spinal cord injury. 3. Creating a platform for the trainees and PIs to interact and get to know some possible collaborators. To meet these objectives and increase the possibility of interaction we are tweaking the format: The presentation should be about a recent journal article or more, relevant to the students' project. When presenting a paper questions that can be addressed by the student: a. Why this paper is of interest? b. What did this paper add to the field? c. What are the shortcomings of the work? d. What can be done differently or be the next step from this paper? e. The presenter can use the paper to segue into their own data and techniques. The journal club may be used to present data if the need arises such as to get feedback on the direction of the trainee's work or alternative understanding of their results. It is expected of each trainee to be prepared to present in their allotted time. In case of unavoidable circumstances, trainees can arrange to switch their scheduled talks with another presenter and inform me of any changes as soon as possible. Best regards, Mona Nazzal and Katinka Stecina

H. Chen D. H. Chen Professor of Bioengineering and of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, Stanford University; Investigator, Howard Hughes Medical Institute Dr. Deisseroth is the D. H. Chen Professor of Bioengineering and of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Stanford University. He is known for creating and developing the technologies of CLARITY and optogenetics, and for applying integrated optical and genetic strategies to study normal neural circuit function as well as dysfunction in neurological and psychiatric disease. He has led the Deisseroth laboratory since 2004. Based in the James H. Clark Center at Stanford, the lab employs a range of techniques including neural stem cell and tissue engineering methods, electrophysiology, molecular biology, neural activity imaging, animal behavior, and computational neural network modeling. Dr. Deisseroth serves as an attending physician at Stanford Hospital and Clinics, and has been affiliated with the Howard Hughes Medical Institute since 2009. Since 2014 he is a foreign Adjunct Professor at Swedens prestigious Karolinska medical institute.
