SUMMARY:HMX Genetics
DESCRIPTION:Most conditions have some genetic basis\, and a scientific revolution enabled by genomic technologies is changing the way that many diseases are diagnosed and treated as well as providing insight into health\, risk factors\, and disease prevention. A solid understanding of genetics has never been more important for the practice of medicine. This course\, led by Dr. Christine DeGennaro (Harvard Medical School)\, Dr. Robert C. Green (Harvard Medical School / Brigham & Women’s Hospital)\, and Carrie Blout\, MS\, CGC\, LGC (Brigham & Women’s Hospital)\, spans the field from basic to advanced genetics.

SUMMARY:HMX Physiology
DESCRIPTION:“Understanding how the body works is essential for effectively treating patients. In HMX Physiology\, you’ll learn about core concepts and their relationship to the workings of the respiratory\, cardiovascular\, and renal systems\, and see how this knowledge comes into play in real-world scenarios and in clinical settings from the intensive care unit to the cardiac catheterization lab. \nThe course is led by Dr. Richard Schwartzstein\, a professor at Harvard Medical School. Key concepts are explained in brief concept video segments\, and assessments allow you to test your knowledge of the content and learn alongside your classmates. This course also features videos where Dr. Schwartzstein takes you into the hospital to demonstrate how your knowledge of physiology applies to real-life clinical issues. “

SUMMARY:Clarifying the Mysteries of Choosing Statistical and Machine-Learning Methods in Genomics Research
DESCRIPTION:Virtual presentation by Jingyi Jessica Li\, a professor in the Department of Statistics (primary) and the Departments of Biostatistics\, Computational Medicine\, and Human Genetics (secondary) at UCLA. Li leads a research group called the Junction of Statistics and Biology\, where she and her students focus on developing statistical and computational methods to answer important questions in biological and biomedical sciences and to extract key information from genomics and health-related data. \nIn this lecture\, Lin will clarify common confusions in genomics data analysis by connecting cutting-edge genomics research questions with fundamental statistical and machine-learning methods. In particular\, she will focus on the distinctions and choices among the methods that are apparently similar but fundamentally different\, so that quantitative genomics researchers will have clear guidelines to follow in their development of bioinformatics tools. Register online. \nLi has received multiple awards and grants from National Institutes of Health\, the National Science Foundation (NSF)\, and other institutions\, including the Johnson & Johnson WiSTEM2D Scholars Award (2018)\, a Sloan Research Fellowship (2018)\, an NSF Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) Program Award (2019)\, and a spot on the MIT Technology Review 35 Innovators Under 35 China list (2020).
