Professor Ehrlicher's project aims to explore how mechanical forces, such as compression of the nucleus, affect cellular aging and stem cell differentiation, particularly in Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS). In HGPS, accelerated aging and organ defects occur, including impaired fat tissue differentiation. Researchers found that nucleus compression activates Yes Associated Protein (YAP), which slows aging and promotes bone formation from stem cells.</p> Mon, 17 Feb 2025 14:04:56 +0000 admin 3815 at /wie ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ-led projects awarded $360,000 for occupational health and safety research in Quebec /wie/channels/news/mcgill-led-projects-awarded-360000-occupational-health-and-safety-research-quebec-360237 <div> <p><em><span><span><span>I<span>mproving air quality and developing advanced health monitoring devices<span> <span>are the aims of research projects <span>funded <span>by the<span> Robert Sauvé Research Institute for Occupational Health and Safety (IRSST) <span> </span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></em></p></div> Tue, 08 Oct 2024 15:47:39 +0000 admin 3836 at /wie CUBEC coming up on Jan 25th /wie/channels/news/cubec-coming-jan-25th-362512 <p>The Canadian Undergraduate Biomedical Engineering Conference (CUBEC) is set to take place this January 25th, 9am - 6pm, at The Neuro on ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ University campus!

Join an interdisciplinary team of undergraduate students to develop a synthetic biology project over the course of a year. We spend the winter semester on design, planning wet lab/dry lab projects, as well as related initiatives under our education, media, outreach, entrepreneurship, and finance subteams. The summer is then dedicated to full time wet lab (or dry lab) work. We are particularly interested in recruiting applicants with experience in either wet lab or dry lab work to lead those projects.</p> Wed, 29 Jan 2025 14:18:18 +0000 admin 3816 at /wie
