The Section on Genetics and Genomics (SGG) welcomes all ATS members who are interested in genetics, genomics, and other “omics” technologies (proteomics, metabolomics, etc.) as they pertain to the diverse array of diseases encountered in pulmonary, critical care, and sleep medicine. The SGG Webinar Journal Club explores high impact literature of omics approaches used to address clinical, translational, and basic research problems.
Each SGG Webinar features:
- A summary presentation of the featured article
- Interactive discussion between an author of the featured article and other renowned experts in the field, as well as the opportunity for questions and comments from ATS members participating in the Webinar.
We use a web-based platform, which allows real-time discussion both online and on the phone making this an interactive journal club. Additionally, there will be an opportunity for further discussion via the SGG Facebook group page.
If you have any questions or have suggestions for future journal clubs, please contact the Journal Club representative Katrina Steiling, MD (steiling@bu.edu).
The Section on Genetics and Genomics is pleased to announce its next Journal Club (JC) on April 3, 2023 at 1PM EST.
Drs. Raphael Borie, PhD from Université Paris Diderot and Iain R. Konigsberg, PhD from University of Colorado School of Medicine will present the article
" Colocalization of Gene Expression and DNA Methylation with Genetic Risk Variants Supports Functional Roles of MUC5B and DSP in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis”, AJRCCM. 2022 November; 206(10):1259-1270. doi: 10.1164/rccm.202110-2308OC.
This journal club will be moderated by Dr. Matthew Moll, MD (Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School), and we will be joined by
- Ivana Yang, PhD (University of Colorado School of Medicine,) senior author of the paper
- Craig Hersh, MD (Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School)
- Brian Hobbs, MD (Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School)
- Gillian Goobie, MD (University of British Columbia)
We use a web-based platform, which allows real-time discussion both online and on the phone, making this an interactive journal club. Please use a landline phone or VoIP for the call.
You will need to register for the webinar in order to participate in the journal club. To reserve your Webinar seat today register here.
We invite your participation for this session and look forward to another insightful discussion. We currently organize monthly sessions and welcome your proposals for interesting articles and/or to present. Please contact (E. Kaity Allen) with any suggestions/questions.
