Scholars from across our science Institutes gathered today for the first of this year’s Cross-Campus Collaborative talks on the West Campus. First up were Samantha Shepherd, a postdoc in the Gupta Lab at the Nanobiology Institute, and Wenya Jian, graduate student in the Crawford Lab at the Institute of Biomolecular Design & Discovery. The CCC series provides a valuable opportunity for scholars from different disciplines and fields to keep in touch with current scientific ideas and findings.

Packed house as Ruslan Medzhitov, Yale Immunobiology, speaks at today’s Systems Biology Institute Seminar about the relationship between different cells and how they work together in the context of our immune systems. Medzhitov’s lab Yale School of Medicine studies the biology of inflammation, mechanisms of homoeostasis, allergic immunity and mechanisms of diseases.

The talk was hosted by the Institute’s John MacMicking, Professor of Microbial Pathogenesis and of Immunobiology. Both Medzhitov and MacMicking are Investigators of the Howard Hughes Medical Institute.

More information about the seminar series, and all the science talks at West Campus, can be found on the website linked from our homepage.

No two days on campus are ever the same. Today we had the excitement of hosting the incoming Biological & Biomedical Sciences students for their orientation to Yale and an opportunity to tour our Institutes and meet with faculty, students and staff. Always a great day on West Campus!

“Let’s meet at the piano,” said Sean McCabe, Communications Officer at Yale School of Medicine, who stopped by this week to film The Terrace in full summer mode. Here he is taking the keys for a spin with legendary jazz pianist Dave Brubeck’s The Desert and the Parched Land (1979). Thanks for visiting, Sean!

The energy created by last week’s Undergraduate Student Research Fair will be felt for some time here on West Campus! We were blown away by our amazing students – your command of science, composure, confidence, and incredible enthusiasm are an example to us all. We can’t wait to see where you go next!

Our endless thanks to the numerous staff, mentors, uber-mentors (you know who you are) and faculty who invest everything in our students.

You can recap the event and all the photos by visiting the news story linked through our homepage.

[*Coveted YWC frisbees may be available at future campus events. You’ll just have to show up and find out 😄]

Two Yale researchers have been selected for the U.S. Department of Energy's Genesis Mission, a national initiative to accelerate scientific discovery through AI.

Physicist Sarah Demers is using AI to catch problems in particle physics data at Fermilab faster than ever before, cutting diagnosis time from hours to minutes. Molecular biologist Farren Isaacs, based at the Systems Biology Institute at Yale West Campus, is building an AI platform that can help design synthetic genomes, the instruction sets that tell cells how to function.

Their projects are among 278 selected nationwide. Read about the work: bit.ly/45hykh8

We started the week with stormy Chopin, and end with sunshine!

Our friend Tom Grim Yale University Art Gallery stopped by the Conference Center for some espresso and treated us to one of his favorite Elton John numbers (Daniel, 1973).

Aside from their day jobs, our West Campus community has crazy talent! Check back for news of a lunchtime concert, and let us know if you’d like to be on the bill!
