PSF talk next Wednesday 11/4 noon time 12:00 to 1:30pm

Dr. Zhengquan Yu at Penn Dermatology Department will start this series by kindly giving us a talk on "An evolutionarily conserved transcriptional mechanism on epithelial barrier formation". Using genome-wide gene expression study, he identified the transcription regulators that regulates the formation of the effective permeability barriers in skin and bladder epithelia. He then characterized one of these regulators -- Grainyhead factor Get1/Grh3 in knockout mice.

This is our first PSF talk that covers both genome-wide gene expression profiling and mouse gene knock-out techniques, not to mention the dermatology field. Members please manage to come.

Please join us for this talk at CRB buidling room 302 at noon time 12:00-1:30pm. Snack and beverage will be served. Feel free to bring your lunch box.

Please note the time and venue change: THIS FRIDAY (November 6) evening
starting from 6:00pm at BRB II/III room 801.
