About the talks
Ice Penetrating Radar: a window into Ice Sheets and Icy Moons
Prof. Dustin Schroeder
Assistant Professor of Geophysics at Stanford University
Radio echo sounding is a uniquely powerful geophysical technique for studying the interior of ice sheets, glaciers, and icy planetary bodies.
Let’s talk about sex: male-female differences in the immune system
Erika Bongen
PhD student at Stanford University, Immunology Department
Scientists have long known that women are more susceptible to autoimmune diseases while men are prone to infections, but we don’t know why. Come hear about my work using computational biology to study sex differences in the immune system. This can help us make therapies that take advantage of the different strengths of males and females to fight disease. Regardless of where you fall on the spectrum of sex and gender, there’ll be something for you to learn about your own immune system!
