What We Can Learn About the Microenvironment from Tumors that Do or Don’t Metastasize
Short Bio:
Zena Werb received her BS from the University of Toronto. Under the mentorship of the late Professor Zanvil A. Cohn, Zena received her PhD in cell biology from The Rockefeller University, New York. Her post-doctoral work was completed at the Strangeways Research Laboratory in Cambridge, UK. After a year as a faculty member at Dartmouth Medical School in Hanover, New Hampshire, she joined the University of California, San Francisco, as an Assistant Professor in the Laboratory of Radiobiology. She is currently the Professor and Vice-Chair of Anatomy at the University of California, San Francisco.

Lecture Title:
A scientific journey: From 3D genome gene regulation studies to new technologies for genetic diagnostics
Short Bio:
Wouter de Laat is group leader at the Hubrecht Institute and professor of Biomedical Genomics at University Medical Center Utrecht. His research focuses on two main themes, with a strong emphasis on technology development. One focus is on epigenetics and gene expression; in particular, how the 3D architecture of the genome impacts on transcription regulation. By developing and applying innovative high-throughput technologies he and his team aim to accelerate progress in understanding genome structure-function relationships. The second focus is on clinical diagnostics. His research group develops DNA sequencing technologies for clinical applications, for example for optimized oncogenetic diagnostics and for non-invasive prenatal diagnosis of monogenic diseases.
