There will be a lunch with Professor Hidalgo for graduate students and postdocs. If you w ould like to have lunch with our guest speaker\, please fill out this SURV EY. The lunch will be held from 12h to 1h in room #530 (Bellini).\n\n \n\n Note\n\nThere will be a 5à7 after the talk at Brass Doors Pub (2171 Cresce nt Street) and anyone (students\, postdocs\, and faculty) are welcome to j oin!\n\n\n Abstract\n\nNeutrophils are formidable defenders. Their vast num bers\, constant production\, high cytotoxicity and even the capacity to co mmit altruistic suicide underlie their capacity to efficiently protect in a microbe-rich world. But neutrophils are much more than immune sentinels\ , as evidenced by the expanding repertoire of functions discovered in the context of tissue homeostasis\, regeneration\, or chronic pathologies. In my talk I will discuss general functional properties of the neutrophil com partment that may be relevant in most physiological scenarios in which the y participate\, including specialization in tissues\, transcriptional nois e and bias in inflammatory sites.\n DTSTART:20230322T193000Z DTEND:20230322T203000Z LOCATION:Room 504\, McIntyre Medical Building\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3G 1Y 6\, 3655 promenade Sir William Osler SUMMARY:EToH Seminar Series: Understanding neutrophils URL:/sbms/channels/event/etoh-seminar-series-understan ding-neutrophils-346878 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
