October Events

02 - Seminar
Prof. Christine Aikens from Kansas State will present a seminar "Optical Absorption,
Electron Paramagnetic Resonance, and Chiroptical Properties of Gold and Silver Nanoparticles" at 2:10 p.m. in the Byker Auditorium.

Prof. Aikens is the guest of Prof. Tim Minton

More information about Prof. Aikens can be found at http://www.ksu.edu/chem/people/faculty/aikens.html

06 - Kopriva Seminar
Ms. Sunshine Silver, a 2008-2009 recipient of the Kopriva Fellowship, will give her seminar "Mechanistic and Spectroscopic Studies of the DNA Repair Enzyme Spore Photoproduct Lyase" today at 4:00 in the Byker Auditorium.

The Kopriva Fellowship was established in 1990 by Phil C. Kopriva to award a graduate student in the MSU College of Letters and Sciences who is studying in a broad range of biomedical-related disciplines.

Ms. Silver is a student in Prof. Joan Broderick's research group.

09 - Seminar
Prof. Brian Bothner from our Department will give a seminar "Some Like It Hot"
today at 2:10 in the Byker Auditorium

16 - Seminar
Dr. Gerard Ostheimer, senior scientist at MIT, will give a seminar "To Sleep or Die: Cell Fate after Chemotherapy" on October 16 at 2:10 in the Byker Auditorium.

DNA damage induces cancer cells to arrest their cell cycle and then either repair the damage and proliferate, enter a state of permanent arrest
(senescence) or apoptose. Using a combination of flow cytometry and high-content microscopy we have quantitatively monitored cellular signaling and phenotypic outcomes in response to DNA damage. We have quantified signaling within the DNA damage signaling pathways, the cell cycle machinery, the apoptotic machinery and the mitogen/stress activated kinase pathways. Partial Least Squares Regression of these data demonstrate a role for the mitogen activated protein kinase, Erk, in modulating the cellular response to DNA damage.

This seminar is hosted by Prof. Robert Walker

23 - Seminar
Prof. Felicia Etzkorn from Virginia Tech will give her seminar "Pin1 Inhibition, Mechanism, and Cell Cycle Regulation" on October 23 at 2:10 in the Byker Auditorium as part of the Abbott Laboratories Lectureship Series.

More information about Prof. Etzkorn can be found on her web page, http://www.files.chem.vt.edu/chem-dept/etzkorn/homepage.htm

Prof. Etzkorn is the guest of Prof. Mary Cloninger

30 - Seminar
Dr. Gnana Sutha Siluvai, a post-doc fellow currently working in Prof. Robert Szilagyi's research group will present a seminar "Reactivity studies of the mononuclear red copper protein Sco from Bacillus subtilis" today at 4:10 in the Byker Auditorium.

Dr. Siluvai was previously at the Oregon Health & Science University

Please note the time change from the usual seminar schedule.
