Dean Brown Introduction-Welcome

Transcript

• 00:00Welcome to today's dean's workshop
• 00:02on integrating systems immunology, engineering,
• 00:05and AI to monitor, predict,
• 00:07and improve human health. So
• 00:09I'm John Tsang. I direct
• 00:11the Yale Center for Systems
• 00:12and Engineering Immunology.
• 00:14So they today couldn't really
• 00:15be possible without the support
• 00:16of the dean's office.
• 00:18So we are grateful
• 00:19to Yale School of Medicine's
• 00:20dean, Nancy Brown, who's here,
• 00:22for being a staunch advocate
• 00:24for and supporter of systems
• 00:25immunology and immune cell engineering
• 00:27research and innovation here at
• 00:29Yale. So it's my great
• 00:30honor to introduce, Dean Brown.
• 00:32So Dean Brown graduated from
• 00:34Yale College, here.
• 00:37You know what? Okay. Alright.
• 00:40I guess everybody knows her
• 00:41knows her, so she's a
• 00:42good student.
• 00:46Yeah. Born at a young
• 00:47age and died. Let's see.
• 00:49So it's really wonderful to,
• 00:52welcome you to the first,
• 00:54dean's workshop of this academic
• 00:55year, and I think we
• 00:56have some people online as
• 00:58well.
• 01:00And we're really the the
• 01:01purpose of these workshops are
• 01:02to,
• 01:03really promote collaborations and help
• 01:05people become aware of some
• 01:07of the exciting things going
• 01:08on. So today, we're introducing,
• 01:11the Yale community. Many of
• 01:13you are already familiar with
• 01:14it to the Center for
• 01:15Systems and Engineering,
• 01:17Immunology.
• 01:17And this was established in
• 01:20twenty twenty three,
• 01:21maybe
• 01:22after many years of envisioning,
• 01:25with really the goal to
• 01:26integrate immunology,
• 01:28engineering,
• 01:30computational and experimental technologies
• 01:33to monitor,
• 01:34predict, and
• 01:35ultimately to intervene in human
• 01:37health. And,
• 01:39but it also serves as
• 01:40a
• 01:43catalyst, I think, for bringing
• 01:44people together across immunobiology,
• 01:47engineering, computational
• 01:49science,
• 01:50quantitative biology, and not just
• 01:52at Yale, but now as
• 01:53part of the,
• 01:54CZI Biohub New York as
• 01:56well.
• 01:57So,
• 01:59you'll hear a lot about
• 02:01today about,
• 02:02the center's goals for developing
• 02:04quantitative and predictive
• 02:06models of immune systems
• 02:08in human health and disease,
• 02:10and
• 02:10ultimately, again,
• 02:13engineering synthetic immune cells
• 02:15that can monitor and and
• 02:17intervene in health.
• 02:20In this workshop, both faculty
• 02:22and our invited keynote speakers
• 02:24will present approaches to integrating
• 02:27their that are integral to
• 02:28the mission of CSCI.
• 02:31And I I hope that
• 02:32you all leave here with
• 02:34an idea for collaboration
• 02:36and future work.
• 02:39And at this point, I
• 02:41will
• 02:42welcome our moderator and our
• 02:44first speaker, John Tsang.
• 02:46I suppose I should be
• 02:47doing a huge introduction of
• 02:49you, but,
• 02:52and,
• 02:53And I can't use it
• 02:54on mute. No. No. No.
• 02:56No. So,
• 02:58so I without further ado,
• 02:59John. Yeah. Thank you.
