Anderson Brito represented the Brazilian Association of Postgraduate Students and Researchers in the United Kingdom (ABEP-UK) at the IX Annual ABEP-UK Conference. Anderson is the Executive Director of the association, and presented the results of a students’ satisfaction survey sent last year to Brazilian scholars in the UK. The conference was held on June 10th, at Sir Alexander Fleming Building, Imperial College London.
Thalia Chan presented her research ‘Network inference using information measures’ at the MASAMB conference in Vienna.
On 21st March 2017, Ann Babtie gave a lecture on ‘Single cell transcriptomics, network inference and cell development’ as part of the Advanced Lecture Course on Computational Systems Biology in Aussois, France.
Anderson Brito took part on an outreach activity at St Joseph College Beulah Hill (Upper Norwood, South East London). The event was coordinated by the non-profit organization Native Scientist, and was aimed to Portuguese and Brazilian pupils aged 6-10. They were taught in Portuguese about general aspects of Viruses, from morphology to viral diseases and their symptoms.
Ann Babtie presented her research ‘Gene regulatory network inference using multivariate information measures’ at a seminar in the Applied Mathematics group at the Southampton University.
Anderson Brito presented his work on ‘Reconstructing ancestral protein-protein interactions of virus-host systems’ at the ‘X-Meeting 2016 – 12th International Conference of the Brazilian Association of Bioinformatics and Computational Biology (AB3C)’ at the Federal University of Minas Gerais, Belo Horizonte (Brazil).
Anderson Brito presented his work on ‘Principles of Graphic Design for Science Communication’ at the ‘XV Biology Week of the University of Brasília (SemaBio-UnB 2016)’ at the University of Brasília, Brasília (Brazil).
The Theoretical Systems Biology group welcomes our new PhD student Irene Robles Rebollo!
Irene will work for the next three years on her project “Nuclear architecture and gene expression”, where she will focuss on understanding the relationship between chromatin organization and the control of gene expression. To do so, she is going to combine a range of single-cell techniques with computational approaches to uncover how cells produce precise responses.
Our paper on ‘A large fraction of HLA class I ligands are proteasome-generated spliced peptides’ is now published in Science.
