CEE Seminar – Advances in environmental monitoring and risk assessment to reduce exposures to enteric pathogensGlobally, a large fraction of the disease burden is attributed to environmental contaminants, particularly enteric pathogens, which are transmitted via multiple pathways, including water, food, soil, and fomites. Further, microbial contaminants are garnering more public health attention at the global scale due to the emergence antimicrobial resistance. Prioritization of strategies to interrupt the transmission of […] CANCELED: The Evolution of Genome Evolution and Virulence in the Human Pathogen HistoplasmaDr. Matute uses evolutionary principles to understand the biology of emerging fungal pathogens. These pathogens cause disease in over one billion people each year, and their impact is expanding as antifungal resistance becomes increasingly widespread. The Matute lab is currently focused on understanding the evolution of virulence in pathogens of the genus Histoplasma using computational […] |

Nuclear mechanobiology – from striated muscle disease to ultrarapid cellular mechanosensingThe nucleus is the defining feature of eukaryotic cells. While most research has focused on the genomic information contained within the nucleus, recent findings highlight the importance of its mechanical properties and responses to applied forces in determining cellular functions and processes. Using a comprehensive and multidisciplinary research approach that combines the development of novel […] |

CEE Seminar – Assessing Releases from Solid Materials: From Stress to ExposureRegulatory frameworks for chemicals, materials, and advanced products increasingly require quantitative exposure data as a core component of safety dossiers. For solid materials, however, exposure assessment remains challenging because releases are not static properties but emerge dynamically over a material's life cycle, driven by mechanical, environmental, thermal, and use-related stresses. Without robust methods to identify […] |
