BME/OCSSB Seminar: Angular Morphomechanics in the Establishment of Multicellular Architecture of Glandular Tissues

Biomedical Engineering We address a fundamental question in morphogenesis: what are the physical laws that govern the assembly of acinar structures? We report a novel type of human cell motility where single cells undergo multiple rotations. This motion is maintained as the cells cohesively divide to assemble into polarized multicellular spherical structures (acini) when placed in a 3D basement membrane surrogate gel. We visualize the complete evolution from the single cell to an acinus. We link the functional relevance of coherent angular motion (CAMo) to spherical architecture, and determine the importance of molecules involved in cell-cell adhesion and tissue polarity to the outcome. CAMo is observed in both primary human cells and established breast cell lines where the final realized geometry is spherical.

Mindfulness Meditation Drop-in

Mindfulness is paying attention in a particular way, on purpose, in the present moment, and non-judgmentally. Mindfulness meditation teaches skills for being in the present moment no matter what the situation. Mindfulness meditation studies show positive outcomes in quality of life and symptoms across a variety of health issues (stress, depression, anxiety, insomnia, PTSD, chronic pain, and cancer). The key to getting the most out of mindfulness is PRACTICE. Mindfulness can be applied to any object of attention. For example, you can focus on your breath, sounds, thoughts, or emotions. You can also be mindful during your daily life activities like eating, cooking, or brushing your teeth. The goal of this weekly drop-in mindfulness meditation class is to practice many different types of guided mindfulness meditations to experience which ones work best for you. Each week will highlight a different guided mindfulness meditation. No experience is required. HOW TO FIND THE ROOM: Take the E elevators in the… Series Title: Mindfulness Meditation Drop-In.

Marquam Hill Lecture: What do women (and men) want? Next generation birth control and family planning

School of Medicine LECTURE SUMMARY: Despite the widespread availability of contraceptives, birth control methods are used inconsistently or incorrectly and this exposes women to the risk of unintended pregnancy. Reasons for imperfect use include misperceptions about risks and fear of side effects, particularly with hormonal methods. As a physician, Jeffrey Jensen, MD, witnesses firsthand the difficulty his patients experience when dealing with the consequences of unintended pregnancy. These women and their partners inspire his dedication to develop new contraception methods. Dr. Jensen will talk about next-generation birth control and the race to bring better choices to family planning. Dr. Jensen is the Leon Speroff Professor and Vice Chair for Research in the Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology, Director of theWomen's Health Research Unit in the Center for Women's Health, and a collaborating scientist at the Oregon National Primate Research Center.

Biomedical Engineering Organs are spatially organized populations of different cell types working together to carry out higher order functions. Understanding how cells are organized is important for developing the next generation of virtual organs. For example, mapping the distribution of each functional cell type in the lungs can lead to the development of more informative simulations of dose-response. In addition, cluster analysis of the organization of cells and their expressed genes allows for learning more about the functions and relationships of sub-cellular molecular pathways. Over the past decade, new imaging and computational approaches have enabled the development of more comprehensive means for capturing 3D tissue architecture as well as the distribution of cell types and cell functions throughout entire organs, leading to massive amounts of data. One way to facilitate the representation and analysis of this data is through the use of multiresolution geometric frameworks. Beyond biological organs, multiresolution spati… Series Title: Spatial Analysis of Chemical and Biological Systems. Campus Location: South Waterfront.

Mindfulness Meditation Drop-in

Mindfulness is paying attention in a particular way, on purpose, in the present moment, and non-judgmentally. Mindfulness meditation teaches skills for being in the present moment no matter what the situation. Mindfulness meditation studies show positive outcomes in quality of life and symptoms across a variety of health issues (stress, depression, anxiety, insomnia, PTSD, chronic pain, and cancer). The key to getting the most out of mindfulness is PRACTICE. Mindfulness can be applied to any object of attention. For example, you can focus on your breath, sounds, thoughts, or emotions. You can also be mindful during your daily life activities like eating, cooking, or brushing your teeth. The goal of this weekly drop-in mindfulness meditation class is to practice many different types of guided mindfulness meditations to experience which ones work best for you.

Mindfulness Meditation Drop-in

Mindfulness is paying attention in a particular way, on purpose, in the present moment, and non-judgmentally. Mindfulness meditation teaches skills for being in the present moment no matter what the situation. Mindfulness meditation studies show positive outcomes in quality of life and symptoms across a variety of health issues (stress, depression, anxiety, insomnia, PTSD, chronic pain, and cancer). The key to getting the most out of mindfulness is PRACTICE. Mindfulness can be applied to any object of attention. For example, you can focus on your breath, sounds, thoughts, or emotions. You can also be mindful during your daily life activities like eating, cooking, or brushing your teeth. The goal of this weekly drop-in mindfulness meditation class is to practice many different types of guided mindfulness meditations to experience which ones work best for you.
