SUMMARY:PreMiEr Spring 2024 Seminar Series - Drs. Connie Syharat\, Arash Zaghi\, and Marisa Chrysochoou
DESCRIPTION:Please join the NSF Engineering Research Center for Precision Microbiome Engineering (PreMiEr) and host institution Duke University for a talk from Drs. Connie Syharat\, Arash Zaghi\, and Marisa Chrysochoou of the University of Connecticut. \nReframing Neurodiversity in Higher Education \nA growing body of literature suggests that neurodiverse learners may possess assets that are highly desirable within STEM disciplines. Even so\, despite the potential of neurodiverse individuals to contribute to innovation\, neurodiverse students\, such as those with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)\, autism\, or dyslexia\, remain highly underrepresented in STEM majors\, and in higher education overall. This talk will argue that the predominant perception of neurodiversity as a disability limits the participation of neurodiverse students in higher education\, ultimately impacting the diversity and creativity of the workforce. Instead\, a strengths-based perspective of neurodiversity will be presented that may be integrated within STEM education in particular\, as well as in higher education overall\, as we present our vision for a transformative education system that moves beyond mere accommodation of learning differences and empowers all students to leverage their unique strengths. \nOpen to the public\, but registration required for non-PreMiEr members. \nNon-PreMiEr members can register for the seminar series through this link.

SUMMARY:PreMiEr Seminar Series: Drs. Cynthia Gibas and Jessica Schlueter
DESCRIPTION:PreMiEr-sponsored seminar hosted by University of North Carolina at Charlotte. \nSpeakers: Drs. Cynthia Gibas\, Professor\, and Jessica Schlueter\, Associate Professor of Bioinformatics and Genomics \nAdventures in Wastewater Monitoring \nWastewater surveillance has become an established part of US public health infrastructure via the National Wastewater Surveillance System and its network of collection sites in all 50 states. Wastewater based epidemiology has become a powerful tool for public health to monitor circulating and emerging viral variants. As a medium\, wastewater is a complex mixed matrix\, making the deconvolution of wastewater samples more difficult as there is a scarcity of benchmarked tools for metagenomic samples. We have created a gold-standard dataset constructed from synthetic viral controls spiked into a wastewater RNA matrix and sequenced on the Oxford Nanopore Technologies platform. We compare the performance of seven of the most commonly used deconvolution tools in identifying SARS-CoV-2 variants present in these mixtures. But there’s more to find in wastewater than just viruses and bacteria. Protein biomarkers of exposure and infection are accessible via fecal samples\, and we have recently demonstrated that specific human antibodies can be detected in community wastewater. This assay has the potential to provide population-level data about the susceptibility component of the epidemiological SEIR model at a much lower cost than traditional serology. \nClick here to register!

DESCRIPTION:PreMiEr-sponsored seminar hosted by North Carolina State University. \nSpeaker: Andrew Hardwick\, Graduate Student and PreMiEr Scholar \nGhosts in The Built Environment – Evaluating the Use of Socially Defined Variables in Microbiome Research \nHalloween may have passed\, but ghosts still linger. Ghost variables are cases where socially defined variables like race and sex/gender are improperly used to study and create narratives about socially defined groups. The narratives people use matter with stories having the power to shape the development of future healthcare policy and scientific funding. This research project evaluates the use of different socially defined variables correctly and incorrectly in the context of the built environment to map out their prevalence in a network that spans academia\, funding agencies\, and the news. This talk will focus on the methods developed to systematically study the use of ghost variables in the built environment and some preliminary results so far. \nClick here to register!

SUMMARY:PreMiEr Seminar Series: Dr. Nicole Rockey
DESCRIPTION:PreMiEr-sponsored seminar hosted by Duke University. \nSpeaker: Nicole Rockey\, Assistant Professor\, Pratt School of Engineering \nVirus persistence and treatment – implications for infectious disease transmission in the built environment \nInfectious diseases from emerging and endemic pathogens continue to cause significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. Recent global changes\, including urbanization\, climate change\, and population growth\, have altered the infectious disease landscape. These changes increase disease spread and risk of viral emergence. My research seeks to better understand risks from viral pathogens and identify effective strategies to limit their spread in the built environment. In this talk\, I will discuss work investigating alternative molecular and predictive modeling approaches for estimating virus fate through disinfection and developing virus monitoring strategies in water treatment settings. I will also highlight research employing animal models to assess influenza virus transmission and controlled bench-scale approaches to study the persistence and spread of respiratory viruses. This work ultimately assesses the impact of engineering interventions (e.g.\, ventilation) on influenza virus transmission in close-contact scenarios. Overarching aims of our work are focused on establishing transmission risks in the built environment and informing engineering interventions that will aid in building robust\, sustainable responses to microbial threats. \nClick here to register!

SUMMARY:PreMiEr Seminar Series: Dr. Alex McCumber
DESCRIPTION:PreMiEr-sponsored seminar hosted by University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. \nSpeaker: Alex McCumber\, Postdoctoral Research Associate \nAbstract: Evaluation of Sink Bioaerosols \nSinks are ubiquitous in modern buildings and serve an important role in reducing the transmission of diseases via hand washing. In settings where someone may encounter at risk individuals\, such as hospitals\, sinks are placed in nearly every room to ensure proper hand hygiene adherence. However\, the p-traps beneath sinks are well documented to harbor multidrug resistant pathogens and operate as a source of bioaerosol emissions and exposure to a highly vulnerable patient population. In 2023\, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention published a weekly report describing an outbreak of Carbapenemase-Producing Carbapenem-Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections that were traced to the p-trap in the hospital room. Due to the continued risk between sink bioaerosols and infections in high-risk settings\, factors that affect bioaerosol generation\, fate\, and transport warrant further exploration. This project is designed to take initial steps towards answering these questions and provide standardized techniques for future projects within the Center. The overarching goal of this project is to quantify the risk associated with sink bioaerosols and identify engineering or microbiological based controls that ameliorate or eliminate bioaerosol threats. Experiments are accompanied by modeling to aid prediction and identification of engineering solutions to manage p-trap bioaerosol generation. Possibilities include changes to the geometry of the sink or trap\, as well as microbiological-based controls such as p-trap probiotics that mitigate the proliferation of harmful p-trap bacteria. \nClick here to register!

DESCRIPTION:PreMiEr-sponsored seminar hosted by University of North Carolina at Charlotte. \nSpeaker: Anthony Fodor\, Professor\, College of Computing & Informatics\, PreMiEr Associate Director \nAdventures with the Poisson distribution: on simplicity and reproducibility in microbial analyses \nAbstract \nIn this talk\, we explore ways in which simple algorithms can sometimes outperform more complex ones in metagenomics pipelines.  We present recent results where straight-forward classical statistical approaches to differential analysis can out-perform more recently developed negative-binomial based methods.  We show that data normalizations based on simple or “naïve” proportions can have some attractive properties when compared to more sophisticated\, but more complex\, compositionally aware transformations.  And we explore how one-parameter models based on the Poisson distribution can provide reasonable null error models for 16S-based ASVs and WGS approaches to taxonomic classification.  As recent controversies highlight\, analysis of metagenomic data can often get bogged down in complexity.    Adopting simpler methods where possible has the potential to yield more easily interpretable results that are less likely to be the result of arbitrary choices made in data analysis pipelines. \nClick here to register!

SUMMARY:PreMiEr Seminar Series: Dr. Jill Stewart
DESCRIPTION:PreMiEr-sponsored seminar hosted by University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. \nSpeaker: Jill Stewart\, Philip C. Singer Distinguished Professor\, Department of Environmental Sciences and Engineering \nSeminar Abstract: Environmental Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) in the Built Environment \nAntimicrobial resistance is an increasing threat to public health and modern medicine. Clinical cases of antimicrobial resistance are on the rise. However\, the environmental dimensions of resistance remain poorly understood. Building on previous research to understand the evolution and ecology of resistance\, we aim to develop tools and recommendations for antibiotic resistance in the built environment where humans spend most their time. Specifically\, we aim to (1) establish reproducible methods to identify and prioritize antibiotic resistance genes and their biological meaning in the built environment; (2) expand sampling of key indicators and signatures to study the evolutionary ecology of resistance in these systems; and (3) evaluate the critical ability of resistance to move among humans\, animals\, and the built environment and potential risks to human health. We seek to work collaboratively with other PreMiEr Center projects\, including sharing samples and methodological insights. Together this work will advance capabilities to study environmental dimensions of antimicrobial resistance and will contribute knowledge\, recommendations\, and products to advance the global fight against resistant infections. \nClick here to register!
