SUMMARY:Crossroads of Ideas: Gut Instincts - Microbes\, Addiction\, and Immunity
DESCRIPTION:Part 1 of the Microbiome Miniseries\, with Margaret Alexander and Vanessa Sperandio\n\n\nKick off an exciting three-part mini-series on the gut-brain superhighway with UW-Madison researchers Vanessa Sperandio and Maggie Rose Alexander. In this thought-provoking conversation\, they will unpack the complex interplay between gut microbes\, addiction\, and immunity\, sharing cutting-edge research and visionary perspectives on how these connections shape the future of brain and gut health in society. \n\n\nMargaret Alexander is an Assistant Professor at the University of Wisconsin Madison in the department of Medical Microbiology and Immunology. Dr. Alexander’s research is focused on understanding the mechanistic interactions between diet\, the microbiota\, and immune responses and the functional consequences of these interactions for autoimmune diseases. Dr. Alexander did her postdoctoral fellowship at the University of California\, San Francisco in the laboratory of Dr. Peter Turnbaugh in the department of Microbiology and Immunology. She attended Carleton College for her undergraduate degree in Biology and the University of Utah for her PhD in the lab of Dr. Ryan O’Connell studying immune cell communication. \n \nVanessa Sperandio is the Chair of the Department of Medical Microbiology and Immunology in the University of Wisconsin-Madison and the Robert Turell Professor. She was the Jane and Bud Smith Distinguished Chair in Medicine\, and a Professor in the departments of Microbiology and Biochemistry at UT Southwestern Medical Center. She got her bachelors in biology\, and her masters and PhD in Molecular Genetics in the State University of Campinas (UNICAMP) in Brazil. \n\n\nWe value inclusion and access for all participants. If you would like to request reasonable accommodations to enhance your participation experience\, please email idhub@wid.wisc.edu no later than 2 weeks prior to the event. This event is wheelchair accessible. \n\n\nAll Crossroads of Ideas sessions are recorded and shared post-event. Due to popular request\, we will also be livestreaming the Microbiome Mini-series. Please register through the provided link if you intend to join in person or via the livestream link which will be shared upon registration.

SUMMARY:Crossroads of Ideas: Alzheimer's and the Gut-Brain Superhighway
DESCRIPTION:Part 2 of the Microbiome Miniseries\, featuring Barbara Bendlin and Federico Rey\n\n\nPart 2 of the Microbiome Miniseries\, with Barbara Bendlin and Federico Rey \nIn this second installment of the Microbiome Miniseries\, researchers Barbara Bendlin and Federico Rey will discuss the many factors that can impact brain aging\, with a special focus on the gut-brain superhighway and the role that the gut microbiome can have on brain health. \nBarbara Bendlin is a faculty member in the Division of Geriatrics and Gerontology within the Department of Medicine. She is a member of the Wisconsin Alzheimer’s Institute’s Executive Committee and the Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center Executive Committee\, leads the Research Education Component in the Wisconsin Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center\, and directs the UW-Madison Neuroscience and Public Policy Program. Dr. Bendlin is a recipient of a 2019 Distinguished Honors Faculty Award and is an associate editor of the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease. \nFederico Rey started his independent research program in bacteriology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2013. A major focus of his group is to understand how variations in the gut microbiome composition modulate the effects of diet and the host’s susceptibility to cardiometabolic and cognitive diseases. To address these issues\, his team uses a combination of hypothesis-generating\, sequencing-centered analyses of microbiomes from humans and mice\, followed by proof-of-principle/proof­-of­-mechanism studies in gnotobiotic mouse models of disease and classical bacteriology experiments. The contributions from his team are helping move the field from associations to causal relationships and shedding light on the mechanisms by which gut microbes modulate health. \n\n\nWe value inclusion and access for all participants. If you would like to request reasonable accommodations to enhance your participation experience\, please email idhub@wid.wisc.edu no later than 2 weeks prior to the event. This event is wheelchair accessible. \n\n\nAll Crossroads of Ideas sessions are recorded and shared post-event. Due to popular request\, we will also be livestreaming the Microbiome Mini-series. Please register through the provided link if you intend to join in person or via the livestream link which will be shared upon registration.

SUMMARY:Research Object Storage (S3): A deep dive for technical support staff (FREE and online)
DESCRIPTION:In this virtual session\, we’ll further explore Research Object Storage (S3)\, a new campus-hosted data storage service offering 50TB of no-cost storage to eligible researchers.  This session\, which will be geared toward technical support staff\, will highlight access methods (such as API)\, practical applications\, and potential issues using the service.  What are common IT tasks associated with this service and how do you know if this is a service you should recommend to your researchers?\nCONTACT: researchdrive@wisc.edu\nURL: https://it.wisc.edu/research-ci/research-object-storage-s3-presentation-3/\nONLINE: https://uwmadison.zoom.us/j/94791669123?pwd=52ajZaLb2mkFSiDHw0yiz5lyNNnnfb.1

SUMMARY:Intermediate Research Software Development with Python
DESCRIPTION:https://uw-madison-datascience.github.io/2025-03-24-uwmadison-intermedpython/\n\n\nIntermediate Research Software Development with Python aims to teach a core set of established\, intermediate-level software development skills and best practices for working as part of a team in a research environment using Python as an example programming language (see detailed learning objectives). The core set of skills we teach is not a comprehensive set of all-encompassing skills\, but a selective set of tried-and-tested collaborative development skills that forms a firm foundation for continuing on your learning journey.
