DESCRIPTION:\n\nThanks for your interest in Neurogenesis! While in-person r
 egistration for this event is currently closed\, you can register to atten
 d the event virtually.\n\nNeurogenesis: HBHL's New Faculty Recruit Speaker
  Series\n\nThursday\, February 9\, 2023\n	4:00–5:00 p.m.\n\nHybrid seminar 
 followed by an informal\, post-event reception with refreshments for those
  attending in person\n\n1010 Sherbrooke St. West\, Suite 1800\n\nThe Neuro
 genesis speaker series will give you the opportunity to get to know HBHL’s
  new recruits firsthand—to learn about their research\, ask questions and 
 get to know them over refreshments.\n\nEach event in the series will featu
 re two HBHL faculty recruits whose research areas provide an interesting c
 ontrast or intersection for discussion.\n\nFebruary speakers:\n\n\n	Mahsa D
 adar\, PhD\, will talk about her work on ex vivo brain scanning and neurod
 egenerative disease\; and\n	Yue Li\, PhD\, will present his work on polygen
 ic risk score modelling and topic-guided PheWAS using UK Biobank data\n\n
 \nCan't make it in person? No worries!\n	\n	To better meet the accessibility
  needs of the Â鶹ɫÇéƬ community\, HBHL is now offering the possibility to a
 ttend the Neurogenesis presentation session remotely (childcare subsidy pr
 ogram also available for those interested in attending in person).\n\n\nSp
 eakers\n\nMahsa Dadar\n\nMahsa Dadar's team aims to investigate the role o
 f cerebrovascular pathology in aging and neurodegenerative disease populat
 ions. Her research program has three main components: (1) Developing neuro
 imaging and machine learning tools to accurately detect and track signs of
  cerebrovascular and neurodegenerative pathologies\; (2) Investigating the
  relationship between cerebrovascular and neurodegenerative pathologies\, 
 the impact of lifestyle and environmental factors on these diseases\, and 
 the impact of cerebrovascular pathology on clinical outcomes in neurodegen
 erative disease populations\; and (3) Ex-vivo assessment of cerebrovascula
 r disease using post-mortem MRI and histology.\n\nYue Li\n\nYue Li's resea
 rch is focused on developing interpretable probabilistic-learning and deep
 -learning models of genetic\, epigenetic\, electronic health record and si
 ngle-cell genomic data. By systematically integrating multimodal and longi
 tudinal data\, his lab aims to have impactful applications in computationa
 l medicine\, including building intelligent clinical recommender systems\,
  forecasting patient health trajectories\, offering personalized polygenic
  risk predictions\, characterizing multi-trait functional genetic mutation
 s\, and dissecting cell-type-specific regulatory elements that are underpi
 n complex traits and diseases in humans. His research program covers three
  main research areas involving applied machine learning in: (1) healthcare
  and public health\; (2) computational genomics\; and (3) population genet
 ics.\n
