SUMMARY:Lifespan minisymposium: Regulation of gene expression
DESCRIPTION:10.00-11.00 Prof. Martin Frith\, AIST\, Japan\nExplaining the c
 orrelations among properties of mammalian promoters\n\n11.00-12.00 Prof. J
 ussi Taipale\, University of Cambridge\, UK\nGenome-wide analysis of prote
 in-DNA interactions\n\nHost: Laura Elo\n\nCoffee is served at 9.45\n\nProf
 . Martin Frith\n\n 	Artificial Intelligence Research Center\, National Ins
 titute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology AIST\, Tokyo\, Japan\

 ool of Frontier Sciences\, The University of Tokyo.\n 	Computational Bio B
 ig-Data Open Innovation Laboratory (CBBD-OIL)\, National Institute of Adva
 nced Industrial Science and Technology AIST\, Tokyo\, Japan\n\nProfessor M
 artin Frith got his PhD from the Boston University in 2004. He did his pos
 tdoctoral training at the University of Queensland (Brisbane\, Australia) 
 and at the RIKEN (Tokyo\, Japan) and further continued his research at the
  National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST). 
 He was appointed as a professor at the Department of Computational Biology
  and Medical Sciences in University of Tokyo. Professor Frith's aim is to 
 decipher the functional and historical information in genome sequences usi
 ng statistical models and computational methods. Dr Frith has published mu
 ltiple methods to help understand how genomes and genes evolve. His long-t
 erm interest is promoter sequences and DNA motifs that regulate gene expre
 ssion. The aim of his research group is to understand the function and evo
 lution of features such as CpG islands\, and ultimately the DNA “code”
  that controls gene expression.\n\nList of publications: https://www.ncbi.

 and\n\nProfessor Jussi Taipale got his PhD from the University of Helsinki
  in 1996\, and continued with postdoctoral work at the University of Helsi
 nki and at Johns Hopkins University (Baltimore\, MD\, USA). Jussi Taipale 
 is a Principal Investigator and Herschel Smith Professor of Biochemistry a
 t the Department of Biochemistry in University of Cambridge. Professor Tai
 pale has extensive experience in methods for regulatory genomics\, systems
  biology and genome-scale technologies. His laboratory includes both exper
 imental biologists and computer scientists. The principal aim of his resea
 rch group is to understand two systems-level questions that are presently 
 poorly understood: the mechanisms that control growth of tissues and organ
 isms\, and the rules that specify how DNA sequence determines when and whe
 re genes are expressed.\n\nList of publications: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.
