AND

Dear all,

there will be an Ad-Hoc seminar on Friday October 4 at 10.00-11 in F202. The guest speaker is Dr. Katsuyuki Yugi, Team Leader from the Laboratory for Integrated Cellular Systems, RIKEN Center for Integrative Medical Sciences, Yokohama, Japan Laboratory for Integrated Cellular Systems | RIKEN IMShttps://www.ims.riken.jp/labo/58/index.html

The title of his presentation is " Trans-omics: integration of multiple omic data on the basis of reaction kinetics"

The primary research interests of his research group are:

1. Reconstructing global metabolic regulatory networks in a 'trans-omic' (*) manner 2. Developing methods for trans-omics

They perform experiments using mammalian cells to obtain biological samples for measuring time-series omic data of multiple layers. Resultant multi-omic data are subjected to computational analysis for reconstruction of global metabolic regulatory networks, which come across multiple omic layers.

(*) Trans-omic(s) : A discipline to reconstruct a global and multi-layered biochemical network not as a group of indirect statistical correlations but as chains of direct mechanistic molecular interactions, from comprehensive data of multi-omic layers not taken from heterogeneous sources but measured under an identical condition.

Welcome everybody! No registration required. Coffee is served during networking session 20 min before the presentation time. 10.00-11.
