Somewhat controversial\, but the preponderance of information points to what some researchers believe proves life of earth has ebbed and flowed and we are only now beginning to understand our past. Join us to discuss and learn about this fascinating subject. Vince will present evidence that will certainly make you think we may need to re-examine our understanding of ancient Egypt\, Peru\, Mexico\, Turkey\, and other areas. Things we call myths may hold clues to past civilizations that existed 10\,000 years ago.

During her postdoctoral training at NIEHS\, she garnered expertise in exploring yeast-based systems\, primary human cells and genomic data from sequenced tumors to identify mutation signatures associated with specific mutagens. Dr. Saini developed a novel pipeline involving yeast genetic assays and bioinformatics analyses to identify diagnostic signatures associated with DNA damaging agents in yeast. She then further demonstrated that the signatures in yeast can be used to analyze tumor mutation datasets to determine cancers with exposures to the DNA damaging agents specific to the signatures. This work was used to identify mutation signatures associated with alkylating agents and oxidative damage. At MUSC\, Dr. Saini has used these methodologies to identify the mutation signature of acetaldehyde exposure. Her lab found that acetaldehyde is a single-stranded DNA-specific (ssDNA) mutagen. Moreover\, my laboratory developed a bioinformatics tool (TriMS) to detect the trinucleotide-based mutation signature of acetaldehyde in yeast and in cancers.

He is a membrane biophysicist who is driven by the question of how the malaria parasite interfaces with its host-red blood cell\, how we can use the unique mechanisms of the parasite to treat malaria and to re-engineer cells for biomedical applications. He obtained a physics master’s degree from the Dresden University of Technology\, Germany and his Ph.D. life sciences from the University Paris Diderot\, France. In his post-doctoral work at the National Institutes of Health\, Bethesda\, his work led to the discovery of structure-function relationships that govern the host cell – parasite interface\, opening research avenues to understand how the parasite connects to and controls its host cell.
