Presented By: Christopher E. Mason, Ph.D
Speaker Biography: Dr. Christopher Mason is an Associate Professor of Genomics, Physiology, and Biophysics at Weill Cornell Medicine and the Director of the WorldQuant Initiative for Quantitative Prediction, as well as an affiliate of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC), Rockefeller University, Harvard Medical School, and Yale Law School. The Mason laboratory develops and deploys new biochemical and computational methods in functional genomics to elucidate the genetic basis of human disease and physiology. We create and deploy novel techniques in next-generation sequencing and algorithms for: tumor evolution, genome evolution, DNA and RNA modifications, and genome/epigenome engineering....
Webinar: Multi-Omics for Astronauts and Missions to Mars
Webinar Abstract: In this talk, cellular and molecular details on the human and microbial responses to short and long-duration spaceflight will be detailed, which span several NASA, SpaceX, and Axiom missions and provide key lessons for upcoming lunar and Mars missions. Then, recent advances in biotechnology, multi-omics, data modeling, and cross-species genome engineering will be highlighted, which have shown novel means of extremophile adaptation in space and chimeric human cells with increased radioresistance. Together, these tools, methods, and data support an ethical and ambitious, 500-year plan of reengineering biology to enable life on other worlds, and also reveal the best candidate planets for life in new solar systems.
