Even though it's spring break, we'll still be having SBIG this week. We'll meet Wednesday at noon in the Chemistry Conference room (Hand Lab 1135). This week we have two first-time presenters:

BioNano Genomics is giving a presentation to IGBB on new approaches to genome mapping. The presentation is February 12th at 3:30 PM in Pace Seed Lab. For more information, please look at the flier, available here.

Our regular monthly SBIG meeting will take place on Wednesday, February 11 in the Chemistry conference room (Hand Lab 1135). Our speakers will be:

• Ailin Wang (Fitzkee Lab) - Ailin will present her latest research on protein-nanoparticle interactions.
• Madhu Lakdusinghe (Emerson Lab) - Madhu will present a talk on Fast Protein Liquid Chromatography (FPLC) and FPLC analysis.

No pizza this week, so be sure to pack a lunch!

The first Structural Biology Interest Group of the semester will occur at 12:00 pm on Wednesday, 1/14. This semester, we're back in the chemistry conference room, Hand Lab 1135. The speakers are listed below:

This week will mark the final SBIG of the semester. We will meet at 12:00 pm on Wednesday, 12/17 in Hand Lab 3324. To celebrate the end of the semester, there will be free pizza at this meeting, so no need to pack a lunch (unless you really don't like pizza). Our speakers will be:

Because of finals week, the December SBIG meeting has been moved to 12/17. The location and time will remain the same as our usual this semester - 12 PM in Hand Lab 3324. An update with speakers and titles will be posted closer to the meeting date, but please adjust your calendar in the meantime. To celebrate the end of the semester, we will have pizza at this meeting.

This week at SBIG we're back to a more typical schedule, with two graduate student speakers. The presentations are listed below:

This Wednesday at SBIG we'll have a presentation from Dr. Ed Lewis from the Department of Chemistry. His presentation will be on the chemical basis for entropy-enthalpy compensation in biological systems. It should be an interesting talk, and I hope you can make it.

The meeting will occur at 12 pm on Wednesday, October 8, in the Chemistry Department conference room (Hand Lab 1135). We'll provide free pizza and drinks; feel free to invite anyone who may be interested - undergraduates are welcome.

Because of a scheduling change, Dr. Lewis has had to cancel his presentation tomorrow. It has been rescheduled for October's meeting (10/8), along with pizza.

The first Structural Biology Interest Group meeting will take place tomorrow, Wednesday Sept. 9, at noon in the Chemistry Conference Room (Hand Lab 1135). This is the first meeting of the year, so please invite anyone new who might be interested. To kick off the meeting, we will provide free pizza and drinks.

We also have a special guest speaker, Dr. Ed Lewis, chair of the Department of Chemistry. Dr. Lewis will be telling us about his recent work on entropy-enthalpy compensation in biomolecules.

Hope to see you there!
