Characterization of Rab proteins involved in cell migration
Seminar will feature two short talks entitled
The repeat structure of two paralogous genes, Yersinia ruckeri Invasin (yrInv) and a “Y. ruckeri Invasin-like molecule”, (yrIlm) sheds light on the evolution of adhesive capacities of a fish pathogen by Agnieszka Wrobel from Dirk Linke group
and
Unicellular origin of the Microprocessor and microRNAs by Arthur Haraldsen from Kamran Shalchian-Tabrizi group
If psi solves H psi = E psi, do we have psi not equal to zero almost everywhere?
Amaury Triaud, University of Birmingham
Ankit Beniwal, University of Adelaide
In this talk, I will present our study of the scalar singlet model. In particular, I will discuss the potential probes for electroweak baryogenesis in this model via collider searches, gravitational wave and direct dark matter detection signals. I will show that a large portion of the model parameter space exists where the observation of gravitational waves would allow detection while the indirect collider searches would not. This will motivate my ongoing study of the extended scalar singlet model with a fermionic dark matter candidate.

Production and Purification of Membrane Scaffold Protein and Class IID bacteriocin Enterocin EJ97 from Enterococcus faecalis EJ97
Body size is often linked intricately with survival and reproductive rates, and therefore affects population dynamics. It is not unlikely for population collapses to be preceded by a change in body size distributions. If those changes happen long enough in advance, they may serve as early warning signals to predict population collapses.

Together with the Double Intraperitoneal Artificial Pancreas project the Centre welcomes Professor Francis J. Doyle III, Dean of John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS), Harvard University, and scholar in chemical engineering to present his latest work on testing algorithms in clinical settings for an artificial pancreas and the future technology for the millions of individuals who are affected by Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Prof Doyle has devoted his research to understand and characterize biological systems by a systems engineering approach, contributing to the fields of systems biology and functional biomedical control, while combining computational and experimental work.
