Science Buzz Lunch in Mixer Room, Bldg 1, Jan. 7, 2013
Topics discussed included:
1) A recent paper in Cell Stem Cell 12, 114 - 126 (Jan. 3, 2013)
by Toshinobu Nishimura et al. titled
Generation of Rejuvenated Antigen-Specific T Cells by Reprogramming to Pluripotency and Redifferentiation
We discussed potential applications of the iPS cell technology for adoptive immunotherapy.
2) A recent paper by Cullen et al. in PLoS ONE titled
Evolutionary Novelty versus Exaptation: Oral Kinematics in Feeding versus Climbing in the Waterfall-Climbing Hawaiian Goby Sicyopterus stimpsoni
which explains how the extreme waterfall-climbing behavior of this fish might have evolved by exaptation of an oral sucker used for feeding on algae
