DESCRIPTION:Biotech Webinar scheduled for Tuesday\, March 31\, 2020 from 11
 :00-12:00\, by Dr. Rana Samadfam\, Charles River Laboratories. This semina
 r will be held on Zoom (https://mcgill.zoom.us/j/785668650).\n\nSummary: S
 ince Joshua Lederberg’s Nobel Laureate recognition nearly 20 years ago\, w
 e’ve seen an explosion in microbiome research. Today\, it’ s clear that th
 e microbiome has great influence on human health and disease. Join us to e
 xplore this fascinating pseudo-organ\, its role in inflammatory processes\
 , and how we might leverage microorganisms in development of new models an
 d therapies. Using a model of inflammatory colitis\, Dr. Rana Samadfam wil
 l explain how gut microbiota affects the induction\, education and functio
 n of the immune system\, and share how live therapeutics can affect inflam
 matory cytokines\, dysbiosis\, and the immunologic response.\n\nABOUT THE 
 SPEAKER\n\nRana Samadfam received both an MSc and PhD in pharmacology from
  the Université de Sherbrooke. Following her postdoctoral training at McGi
 ll University\, Rana joined Charles River\, where she and her team focus o
 n inflammation\, immunology\, autoimmune\, IBD\, respiratory\, skin\, and 
 joint diseases. She is the recipient of several scientific awards\, author
  of over 105 peer-reviewed publications\, and editor of a bone toxicology 
 book. Her articles have appeared in Scientific American\, and her most rec
