Logic of Life

A unique multidisciplinary Swiss research initiative to map the rules of emergence and self-organization that connect biological scales @UZH_en and @ETH_en.

Congratulations all. Great to see it out! Impressive to see how macroscale multicellular properties drive microscale single-cell behavior in cancer.

Our study using imaging mass cytometry for patient stratification in breast cancer and #precisionmedicine is now out at @nature https://t.co/IzYfccYWfs. Congrats to @JanaF18719165 and @hartjackson for their amazing work. Thanks to our collaborators @Unispital_USZ @UniSpitalBasel!

@ETH_en recently put together a nice synopsis of work done by the @KhammashLab & colleagues
using synthetic biology to design and insert an artificial genetic regulatory network into a live cell. Check it out here https://t.co/8zCHGYoW3C

[Logic of Life @LogicofLife_CH]

Exciting new work by the @KhammashLab & colleagues mathematically mimic homeostasis & then genetically engineer a tunable feedback controller in a live cell.

Want to know more about adipocyte differentiation? @BartDeplancke and colleagues reveal that KAP1 is required for differentiation in pre-adipocytes, and that one of its functions depends on recruitment by ZFP30. Full text here: https://t.co/cNumOX9C29

@BartDeplancke and colleagues provide new insight to adipogenic and KZFP–KAP1-mediated gene regulation @NatureComms https://t.co/cNumOXrdqJ

If you’re at Eurogenesis 2019 and interested in heterogeneity of stem cells, check out Sebastian Jessburger’s talk on Tuesday! #neurogenesis #eurogenesis

[Logic of Life @LogicofLife_CH]

Help kick off Eurogenesis 2019 next week on June 11th and hear more about regulation of stem cells and integration into networks #neurogenesis #eurogenesis co-hosted by Sebastian Jessburger

Exciting work in @CellReports by @BartDeplancke @MarthaBulyk & colleagues detail physical interactions of transcription factors in vivo, compiling an integrated fruit fly TF-TF interactome. https://t.co/puu6fQpMTs

[Logic of Life @LogicofLife_CH]

@KhammashLab Are there models of antagonistic selection at other biological scales similar to the ones Keller & colleagues are studying with fruit flies https://t.co/8BK9ScVNxQ ?

[Logic of Life @LogicofLife_CH]

The Keller group (https://t.co/tT7wD9vqo0) at @unil use reproductive effort and changes in gene expression in fruit flies to confirm the presence of sexually antagonistic selection and show it can be reversed by monogamy. https://t.co/8BK9ScVNxQ

[Logic of Life @LogicofLife_CH]

New research out from Roman Stocker’s group @ETH_en (https://t.co/0Ecsql9c01) regarding individual variability of chemotaxis among genetically identical bacteria. Exciting to see how these heterogeneous sensitivities emerge. See more at https://t.co/xPliesn11D

[Logic of Life @LogicofLife_CH]

Recent work by Bascompte (https://t.co/FqCXQ9jwmE) @ETH_en D-BSSE & colleagues revealed importance of maintaining cultural heritage to preserve indigenous communities. Perhaps other networks could also benefit from preserving cultural heritage? https://t.co/z0JYpLVHBb

[D-BSSE, ETH Zurich @ETH_BSSE]

A couple of funding opportunities are available at @BaselAreaSwiss for digital solutions in the health sector > https://t.co/AlkjwOMYKF Good luck with your application!

[LifeTime Initiative @LifeTimeIni]

Starting today, LifeTime is also on YouTube. You can watch all the #LifeTimeOpening presentations. And don’t forget to subscribe to our channel to get new video updates.

Indigenous tropical communities have sophisticated knowledge on local flora. Bascompte (https://t.co/nAWC6FsZmo), @miguelfortuna, & @R_CamaraLeret reveal indigenous community survival is jeopardized due to loss of biocultural heritage. https://t.co/z0JYpMdisJ

[D-BSSE, ETH Zurich @ETH_BSSE]

Always wanted to know (and ask) all about stem cell research and regenerative medicine? At today's @ETH_BSSE Seminar Series, Prof. Timm Schroeder will present latest findings from the Cell Systems Dynamics Group > at 4:15 PM in the ScienceLounge https://t.co/zF3Le3J4Hy #stemcells

[Logic of Life @LogicofLife_CH]

How does YAP1 activity influence organoid development? How could cancer development be effected? @priscliberali research shed lights on the topic at https://t.co/4j9hDEGmKI
