SUMMARY:Muscle Making and Muscle Breaking : From Development to Disease and Beyond
DESCRIPTION:The Dean’s Distinguished Seminar welcomes Dr. Eric Olson presenting Muscle Making & Muscle Breaking: From Development to Disease and Beyond \n\n\n\n\nThe Dean’s Distinguished Seminar Series at the University of Arizona College of Medicine – Phoenix is designed to establish a premier campus seminar program featuring in-person research presentations by leading national and international scholars. Invited speakers represent the highest caliber of researchers from outside the University of Arizona and span the diverse scientific and clinical focus areas that define the College’s research mission. \nThis series aims to showcase innovative discoveries\, foster meaningful scientific exchange\, and strengthen connections between the College and the broader research community. By hosting distinguished experts and highlighting cutting-edge work across disciplines\, the program supports the continued growth of the College’s research enterprise. \nThrough increased visibility\, outreach\, and strategic promotion\, the Dean’s Distinguished Seminar Series will also help elevate awareness of the impactful research being conducted at the University of Arizona College of Medicine – Phoenix and reinforce the College’s reputation as a hub for advancing biomedical science and medical innovation. \n\n\n  \nWednesday\, April 1st \n12:00 pm – 1:00 pm \nIn Person \nHealth Sciences Education Building – Lecture Hall: C104

SUMMARY:Metabolism in the Southwest Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Presenter\n\n\n\n\n\nPeter Tontonoz\, MD\, PhD\nDistinguished Professor\, Frances and Albert Piansky Chair\nDepartments of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine and Biological Chemistry\nDavid Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA \n\n\n\n\nPeter Tontonoz is the Frances and Albert Piansky Endowed Chair and Distinguished Professor of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine and of Biological Chemistry at UCLA. Dr. Tontonoz received his B.A. from Wesleyan University and his MD. and PhD from Harvard Medical School. \nDr. Tontonoz’s laboratory endeavors to understand regulatory pathways that govern cholesterol\, fatty acid and phospholipid metabolism. His work has helped to reveal fundamental mechanisms by which animals maintain cellular and whole-body lipid homeostasis. His group has elucidated pathways for the control of lipid uptake\, transport and efflux\, and has shown how these pathways impact the function of immune cells and metabolic tissues in both physiology and disease. \nHe is a member of the National Academy of Sciences and the National Academy of Medicine and has received numerous awards\, including the Stanley J. Korsmeyer Award (ASCI)\, the American Heart Association Basic Science Prize and the J.C. Fruchart Award (International Atherosclerosis Society). He serves on the editorial boards of PNAS\, Genes & Development\, and Journal of Clinical Investigation. \nSeminar Title\n\nNew Pathways in Lipid Transport\n\nLearning Objectives\n\nTo understand functions for cholesterol metabolism in physiology\nTo become familiar with mechanisms whereby cholesterol moves within cells\nTo recognize how altered cholesterol metabolism may contribute to disease\n\nThis seminar series is offered in a hybrid format and can be attended in person at the BSPB\, E115 Classroom\, or virtually via Zoom. For any questions\, please contact Cyndi at cynthianubie@arizona.edu. Please visit our Metabolism in the Southwest Seminar page to view upcoming events in the series. \n  \nMonday\, February 2nd \n12:00 pm – 1:00 pm \nIn Person or Virtual \nBiomedical Sciences Partnership Building (BSPB)\, E115

SUMMARY:Department of Translational Neurosciences - Fall 2025 Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Dissecting the Synaptic Basis of Learning In Vivo\n\nCurrently a postdoctoral fellow mentored by Dr. Takaki Komiyama at the University of California\, San Diego\, Dr. Wright investigates how natural activity patterns shape various forms of synaptic plasticity and how this plasticity in turn reorganizes neural circuits to mediate learning. Prior to joining the Komiyama lab\, he received his PhD in Neuroscience from the University of Pittsburgh\, where he worked with Dr. Yan Dong to study the synaptic mechanisms that underlie the natural dynamics of drug-associated memories. Dr. Wright’s long-term goal is to understand how the brain adaptively encodes information to shape behavior in both health and disease\, and he is particularly interested in understanding how lower-level modifications\, such as changes in synaptic function\, drive higher-level adaptations in circuit function to obtain a comprehensive mechanistic understanding of how the brain adaptively controls behavior. \n  \n  \nWednesday\, December 3rd \n3:00 pm – 4:00 pm \nIn Person or Virtual \nHealth Science Education Building (HSEB)\, B202 Seminar Room
