Project Team: Matthew Bernards, Nathan Schiele, Dharmeshkumar Patel, Stephanie Haag In the US, over 130,000 surgical procedures each year require a bone graft material, but almost 30% of grafts fail. Recent studies have implicated albumin as important during bone repair and it has been adapted for improving scaffold integration with bone tissue. This is important…

We have a great line up of talks for the Fall 2018 CMCI/IBEST shared seminar series. Mark these dates on your calendar and plan to attend! All seminars are on Thursdays at 12:30 in the Engineering/Physics Building, room 122.
Project Team: Audrey Fu, Md. Bahadur Badsha, Evan Martin Complex diseases often involve changes in DNA sequence, and in DNA transcription and methylation, an epigenetic process that can both regulate and be regulated by gene expression. These changes result in a wide range of symptoms or multiple subtypes of the same disease. In breast cancer,…
Welcome Ousseini Issake Salia to the CMCI team! Ousseini comes to us from France where he was doing research at the Institute of Research for Development in Montpellier. At the U of I, he will be working jointly between CMCI and the Hohenlohe Lab. Check out his profile to learn more or to contact him.
Project Team: Alan Kolok, Lucas Sheneman, Chantal Vella The long-term goal of this program is to model the associations that occur among metal contamination (as a consequence of mining), watershed geography and adverse human health impacts across the Rocky Mountains. In this pilot project, we will focus on generating a predictive classifier model that includes…
Please join us in welcoming Dharmeshkumar Patel, CMCI’s newest Collaboratorium Molecular Modeling Postdoctoral Researcher. Patel has a masters degree in Medicinal Chemistry and earned his PhD from the University of Sydney where he worked on computational study of binding of ion channels inhibitors and protein aggregation. He also has work experience with Piramal Lifesciences Ltd., a drug…
