Researchers to showcase groundbreaking work in: Cellular decision-making, human accelerated regions, medical research and lineage barcodes<\/p>\n
The Allen Distinguished Investigator program supports high-risk, high-reward ideas in science. Award recipients typically receive nearly $1 million or more for three years of research. Without the ADI program, many of these innovative research projects would go unfunded. <\/p>\n
Monday, February 9th, Allen Distinguished Investigator awardees will gather in La Jolla, California at the Scripps Seaside Forum for an all-day symposium. It's a unique opportunity to hear how these researchers are breaking new ground and making an impact on science today and in the future. <\/p>\n
Presentations will feature various key award focus areas. <\/p>\n
Cellular Decision-Making: <\/p>\n
Thierry Emonet, Yale University; Thomas Shimizu, FOM Institute for Atomic and Molecular Physics; Steven Zucker, Yale University: Crowd Computing with Bacteria: Balancing Phenotypic Diversity and Coordinated Behavior. <\/p>\n
Hana El-Samad, University of California, San Francisco: Untangling the Wires: An Integrated Framework for Probing Signal Encoding and Decoding in Cellular Circuits. <\/p>\n
Jeff Gore, Massachusetts Institute of Technology: Microbial Studies of Cellular Decision-making: Game Theory and the Evolutionary Origins of Cooperation. <\/p>\n
Suckjoon Jun, University of California, San Diego: Cell-Size Control and its Evolution at the Single-Cell Level. <\/p>\n
Human Accelerated Regions: <\/p>\n
