"Expressions in Multimedia" by Martha G. Trask "Secondary Effects" by Jeff Ostergren Join us for a reception Thursday, May 22, from 4 to 6 p.m. in the Celeste LeWitt Gallery. (north side of the food court)Martha G. Trask is an expressive mixed media artist who happens to work in our library.Jeff Ostergren infuses his paint with actual medications to tell stories about the intertwined histories of pharmaceuticals and color.

Two CME credits are granted for these weekly educational series presented by varying faculty. Alternating weekly the Tumor Board invites will be sent directly from the Cancer Center for one CME credit. Virtual Event: https://uchc.WebEx.com/meet/Neurosurgery

As you consider a graduate program in Social Responsibility & Impact in Business at UConn, it is extremely important that you make an informed choice. Attending a virtual infosession is a valuable way to gather the missing pieces. Our virtual infosessions are an ideal opportunity for you to learn first-hand about all of our graduate program offerings in Social Responsibility & Impact in Business, and hear from admissions representatives who can answer your questions about pursuing an accelerated or traditional path to your master's degree.

CCAM Seminar Series  Speaker: Dr. Ian Wong, Associate Professor of Engineering, Associate Professor of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Brown University Title: "Mechanobiology and Topology of Collective Cell Migration"   Abstract: Complex tissue architectures emerge from the interactions of migratory epithelial cells, driving self-organizing and pattern forming behaviors. In particular, transitions between multicellular groups and individuals (i.e. epithelial-mesenchymal transitions) occur widely in embryonic development, wound healing, and cancer progression. Here, I present my group's work on collective cell migration at the interface of mechanobiology and topology. First, I describe our work on orbiting to invasive transitions of multicellular spheroids in 3D matrix, which we have systematically explored using experiment and computational modeling. Second, I present results on topological data analysis for human interpretable machine learning of multicellular patterns. I highlight the use of persistence diagrams and persistence images for dimensionality reduction and classification of tissue architectures. We envision that these physical and mathematical approaches enable new insights into the complexity of tissue morphogenesis in development and disease.   Bio: Ian Wong is Associate Professor of Engineering, and of Pathology / Laboratory Medicine at Brown University. He engineers new miniaturized technologies based on biomaterials and microfluidics to investigate cancer cell invasion, drug resistance, and heterogeneity. He is also interested in the unconventional fabrication of bio and nano materials using self-assembly and 3D printing. He did his graduate work on the directed self-assembly of biomolecular materials with Nick Melosh, receiving a Ph.D. in Materials Science and Engineering from Stanford University. His postdoctoral training was with Mehmet Toner and Daniel Irimia at the Center for Engineering in Medicine at Massachusetts General Hospital.
