There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Summary Sentence: Gaurav Dwivedi and Adriana San Miguel presenting
Full Summary: The Graduate and Post-Doc (GaP) Seminar Series is a weekly event of research presentations by two graduate students or post-docs conducting bio-related research. The series is organized and sponsored by the Parker H. Petit Institute for Bioengineering and Bioscience (IBB) with additional support from the Wallace H. Coulter Department of Biomedical Engineering. It is held every Wednesday at 12:00pm in IBB 1128 and refreshments are provided. If your research group or department would like to present at future seminars, please contact Manu Platt, PhD.

"Computational Modeling of the IL-4 Pathway to Understand Systemic Redox Regulation in Cell Signaling"
The role of reactive oxygen species in regulating cellular signaling is now well recognized. However, the mechanisms by which ROS regulate cell signaling are not well understood. We are combining experimental and computational approaches to understand the principles of redox regulation in the context of the IL-4 signaling pathway.

"Phenotypic Profiling of Synapses in C. elegans for Automated High-Throughput Genetic Screening"
An integral approach encompassing microfluidics, machine learning and data analysis enables the identification of mutations that exhibit extremely subtle synapse morphology phenotypes in C. elegans.
