SUMMARY:AI Revolution Meets 4D Cellular Physiology
DESCRIPTION:This meeting will gather current and future leaders in cellular physiology and AI for a deep discussion at this inflection point of both fields. What problems are ripe for this emerging intersection of AI and cellular physiology? Where are the challenges? We will hear about current efforts in AI-based technologies for unravelling spatial and functional organizations of genomes and dynamic cell architectures. We will reflect upon pragmatic issues of generating sufficient and reliable datasets that are amenable to AI. In addition to learning about technological AI innovations to drive new types of data generation and biological analysis\, we will discuss what advances in AI may be needed to address cell biological questions. We anticipate that this timely meeting will stimulate new ideas\, promote explorations\, and catalyze new collaborations among the multidisciplinary group of attendees. \nOnsite participation application deadline: Nov 5\, 2024 (11:59 p.m. ET)

SUMMARY:Fluorescent Proteins and Biological Sensors VII
DESCRIPTION:In the seventh installment of this exciting conference\, we will once again showcase the development of cutting-edge tools and technology for imaging\, from cells to intact animals. Sessions will cover the design and discovery of new fluorescent proteins (and intriguing alternatives)\, and their incorporation into sensors for signaling molecules and cellular states. Innovative imaging modalities making use of such reagents\, as well as biological discoveries gleaned from such experiments\, will also be presented. We hope that the meeting will present a clear picture of how far these tools have come in recent years\, and what additional reagents and capabilities are still needed to advance biology. \nThe meeting will begin at 6pm on the first day and end by 1pm on the last. \nApplication deadline: June 9\, 2023 (11:59 p.m. ET)

SUMMARY:Janelia Conference- The Role of Adhesion Complexes\, Cell Recognition\, and Neural Activity during Circuit Assembly
DESCRIPTION:This meeting will focus on molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying the formation of precise patterns of synaptic connectivity. Over the past decade\, considerable progress has been made in uncovering the molecular identity and structure of adhesion complexes at synapses\, diverse cell surface recognition molecules contributing to wiring specificity\, and the role of activity in sculpting the neural circuitry. In parallel\, detailed connectomics at the light microscopy and EM level have uncovered the extraordinary specificity and complexity of connectivity\, and single cell sequencing has defined cell types and cell-type specific patterns of cell-surface protein expression during circuit assembly. Light microscopic techniques from super-resolution to expansion microscopy and live imaging have led to important advances in uncovering cell biological mechanisms of circuit assembly. Presentations and discussions will highlight important advances in the field and consider current challenges and future directions.

SUMMARY:4D Cellular Physiology Reimagined: Theory as a Principal Component
DESCRIPTION:Organized by Kristin Branson (Janelia)\, James Fitzgerald (Janelia)\, Ann Hermundstad (Janelia)\, Michael Reiser (Janelia)\, and Allyson Sgro (Boston University)\, this is the eighth in a series of planning workshops that will serve an important role in shaping a 15-lab\, 15-year research program at Janelia Research Campus called “4D Cellular Physiology”. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis workshop will focus on the central role that theoretical frameworks and modeling play in understanding biological processes.  Theory and modeling have been a major source of insight and inspiration for experimental directions in all areas of biology; yet their full potential is untapped\, and we seek principles that apply across diverse cellular and physiological systems. To this end\, the meeting will focus on highlighting where cellular physiology has already begun to take advantage of theory\, where there are substantial gaps\, and how to best create and build connections between theorists and experimentalists. The discussions will guide how Janelia’s new 4D Cellular Physiology research program will establish tight collaboration and iteration between theory and experiment to reach a deeper understanding of the mechanisms underlying coordination across cells and tissues to control whole organism function. \nThe virtual format will include 5-6 hours of short talks and discussion each day\, open to the broad scientific community. \nThis workshop will serve an important role in shaping Janelia’s ongoing research program\, providing critical background for a new approach to collaboratively tackle some of the most important problems in modern biomedical research.
