Novel mechanisms of tumor suppression by the miR-34 family

Friday seminar by Miriam Maas from the National Institute for Public Health and the Environment, The Netherlands.

This weeks Macroevolution journal club will discuss the paper Fast running restricts evolutionary change of the vertebral column in mammals by Frietson Galis and colleagues, published in PNAS 2014.

We will have the next “EvoDevo Journal Club” again on Thursday 12th at 14.15 in room 3513 (! new room !). This week we are going to discuss a paper of Chartier et al. about floral morphospace.

Continuing the discussion of papers related to graph based representation of reference genomes, we will read a technical paper this week on a new way to look at the structure of reference genomes. Note the time!

Enduring a risky social environment: A biological basis for the stress induced behavioral inhibition syndrome.

This weeks Macroevolution journal club will discuss the paper Links between global taxonomic diversity, ecological diversity and the expansion of vertebrates on land by Sahney, Benton and Ferry, published in Biology Letters 2010.

”Temporal differences in abundance, size-distribution and recruitment in the inner Oslofjord Green sea urchin (Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis) population and its possible implications on the population’s future health.”

A comprehensive metatranscriptome analysis pipeline and its validation using human small intestine microbiota datasets

This week we will discuss a paper by Foote et al. (Nature Genetics, 2015) on convergent evolution and adaptation to the marine environment in mammals.

One of the upcoming CELS projects is around Graph based representation of reference genomes. In the next episodes of the TGAC journal club, we will therefore discuss several papers around this subject. Some are very technical, some more applied.

DNA damage signalling factors protecting cancer cells against hypoxia-induced replication stress

Friday seminar by Philipp Mitteröcker from Universität Wien

This week's Macroevolution journal club deals with 17,208 bodysizes over 542 million years. It's a recent paper from Science by Heim et al.

This week we will discuss a paper by Lamichhaney et al. (Nature, 2015) on the genomic basis of beak divergence in Darwin's finches.

Please note that the meeting will take place on wednesday the 25^th and not thursday, at 12 as usual!

This week, between the trial lecture and lunch, we'll be discussing a not-so-box-fresh paper from 2012 in Proceedings B by Smith, Lloyd and McGowan titled Phanerozoic marine biodiversity: rock record modelling provides an independent test of large-scale trends

Essentially it compares subsampling (Alroy's SQS) and a much applied bias-correction method to try to reconstruct diversity from fossil data.

Bring a friend and see you Friday.
