Beyond vision, light influences a wide range of physiological and behavioural processes through non-visual pathways via the eye, including sleep–wake regulation, circadian rhythms, cognitive performance, mood, and metabolic function. However, many fundamental questions remain unanswered. We still do not know the optimal dose, timing, duration, or spectral composition of light exposure required to promote different health outcomes, nor do we fully understand the mechanisms linking acute and chronic light exposure to physical and mental health beyond circadian regulation. A major challenge is to account for the substantial inter-individual variability in responses to light. Factors such as age, sex, chronotype, genetics, skin pigmentation, pre-existing health conditions, occupation, and geographical location all influence how individuals respond to light exposure. This presentation will summarize some aspects of the current state of knowledge, highlight key research gaps, and provide examples of how emerging evidence is being translated into practical applications.Major GrooveSeminariumhttps://www.umu.se/kalender/ssibs-seminar-mirjam-munch_12180857/2026-11-13T14:00:00+01:002026-11-13T15:00:00+01:00https://www.umu.se/kalender/medkem-seminarserie-edith-houben_12182719/Medkem seminarserie - Edith HoubenTitel meddelas senareTue, 17 Nov 2026 15:15:00 +0100* Seminarium kommer att vara på engelska.Talare:<h3>Edith Houben</h3>Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, The Netherlands Titel meddelas senare Mer information om MedKem-seminarserien och schemat finns <a href="/link/58b6a2ce13504b7d8178e37998567125.aspx?epslanguage=sv">här</a>.KB.E3.01 (Lilla hörsalen), KBC-husetSeminariumhttps://www.umu.se/kalender/medkem-seminarserie-edith-houben_12182719/2026-11-17T15:15:00+01:002026-11-17T16:00:00+01:00https://www.umu.se/kalender/ssibs-seminar-marco-marcia_12180861/SSIBS seminar: Marco MarciaInom ramen för Integrated Biomedical Sciences Seminars föreläser Marco Marica från Uppsala universitet i Sverige.Fri, 20 Nov 2026 14:00:00 +0100<h2>Dissecting biological mechanisms and folding dynamics of medically-relevant large non-coding RNAs</h2>Värd: Xisca, Institutionen för molekylärbiologiFöredraget är på engelska.<h2>Om föreläsningen:</h2>We are experiencing an “RNA revolution”. Genomes are pervasively transcribed into more non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) than protein-coding RNAs. Moreover, new pharmacological opportunities are emerging to treat human diseases via modulation of ncRNA functions, either by targeting ncRNAs with small molecules or by using ncRNAs as drug vectors. But while we have a deep knowledge of protein structure, function, and dynamics and can accurately predict protein 3D structures from sequence using artificial intelligence, our mechanistic understanding of ncRNAs is still critically limited. My group contributes to fill this knowledge gap by applying RNA biochemistry, structural, cellular and molecular biology to the characterization of catalytic and regulatory bacterial and eukaryotic ncRNAs. In my talk, I will first show how we have elucidated the molecular mechanism of splicing through enzymatic, crystallographic and computational studies on a bacterial spliceosome ancestor, called the group II intron. I will then explain the implications of our group II intron work on understanding eukaryotic splicing and on developing gene-specific and RNA-directed drugs to treat cancer, congenital syndromes and infections. Finally, I will conclude by describing how our studies of splicing machineries enabled us to develop the experimental toolkit for pioneering the characterization of a newly-discovered class of regulatory ncRNAs, the so-called long non-coding RNAs. These latter molecules are key regulators of eukaryotic gene expression, and we have succeeded in dissecting the structure-functional complexity of prototypical lncRNAs through an interdisciplinary evolutionary, cellular, and structural approach, including by imaging them in 3D for the first time. In summary, our work connects the 3D structure and dynamics of large ncRNAs to their vital biological functions and opens still-unexplored research perspectives to understand ncRNA biology and to exploit the translational potential of ncRNAs in RNA-based therapies. Major GrooveSeminariumhttps://www.umu.se/kalender/ssibs-seminar-marco-marcia_12180861/2026-11-20T14:00:00+01:002026-11-20T15:00:00+01:00https://www.umu.se/kalender/medkem-seminarserie-silja-wessler_12182734/Medkem seminarserie - Silja WesslerTitel meddelas senareTue, 24 Nov 2026 15:15:00 +0100* Seminarium kommer att vara på engelska.Talare:<h3>Silja Wessler</h3>Department Biosciences and Medical Biology, Microbial Infection and Cancer, Paris-Lodron University Salzburg, Austria Titel meddelas senare Mer information om MedKem-seminarserien och schemat finns <a href="/link/58b6a2ce13504b7d8178e37998567125.aspx?epslanguage=sv">här</a>.KB.E3.01 (Lilla hörsalen), KBC-husetSeminariumhttps://www.umu.se/kalender/medkem-seminarserie-silja-wessler_12182734/2026-11-24T15:15:00+01:002026-11-24T16:00:00+01:00https://www.umu.se/kalender/ssibs-seminar-shahriar-mobashery_12180862/SSIBS seminar: Shahriar MobasheryInom ramen för Integrated Biomedical Sciences Seminars föreläser Shahriar Mobashery, Notre Damme University, USFri, 27 Nov 2026 14:00:00 +0100<h2>Repair Mechanism of Damaged Cell Wall as Target in Antibacterial Strategies</h2>Talare: Shahriar Mobashery, Notre Damme University, USA Värd: Felipe Cava, Institutionen för molekylärbiologi, MIMSFöreläsningen är på engelska<h2>Om föreläsningen:</h2>Members of Enterobacteriaceae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa have the ability to sense damage inflicted to their cell wall. The process involves chemical signaling, which will be a subject of my presentation.A primary mechanism for this sensing and signalling involves the events of cell-wall recycling. The cell wall is degraded for recycling and then the cell wall is synthesized de novo for the repair function. The recycling events get initiated by the functions of a family of 11 lytic transglycosylases in P. aeruginosa, which generate the signalling factors that influence transcriptional events in the cytoplasm. The mechanisms of these processes and those of the early cytoplasmic steps of recycling have been the subject of study in my lab, which I will disclose in my presentation.Major GrooveSeminariumhttps://www.umu.se/kalender/ssibs-seminar-shahriar-mobashery_12180862/2026-11-27T14:00:00+01:002026-11-27T15:00:00+01:00https://www.umu.se/kalender/cryo-em---sample-preparation-and-data-collection_12182956/Cryo-EM - sample preparation and data collectionUtbilda cryo-EM-användare i provberedning och bildinsamling samt bredda kunskapen om cryo-EM för strukturell biologi.Tue, 01 Dec 2026 08:00:00 +0100Mer information finns på den engelska webbplatsen.Glasburen, KBC HusetKurs/Utbildninghttps://www.umu.se/kalender/cryo-em---sample-preparation-and-data-collection_12182956/2026-12-01T08:00:00+01:002026-12-03T16:00:00+01:00https://www.umu.se/kalender/medkem-seminarserie-mikhail-kudryashev_12182744/Medkem seminarserie - Mikhail KudryashevTitel meddelas senareTue, 01 Dec 2026 15:15:00 +0100* Seminarium kommer att vara på engelska.Talare:<h3>Mikhail Kudryashev</h3>Max Delbrück Center, Berlin, Germany Titel meddelas senare Mer information om MedKem-seminarserien och schemat finns <a href="/link/58b6a2ce13504b7d8178e37998567125.aspx?epslanguage=sv">här</a>.KB.E3.01 (Lilla hörsalen), KBC-husetSeminariumhttps://www.umu.se/kalender/medkem-seminarserie-mikhail-kudryashev_12182744/2026-12-01T15:15:00+01:002026-12-01T16:00:00+01:00https://www.umu.se/kalender/medkem-seminarserie-martin-cohn_12182754/Medkem seminarserie - Martin CohnTitel meddelas senareTue, 08 Dec 2026 15:15:00 +0100* Seminarium kommer att vara på engelska.Talare:<h3>Martin Cohn</h3>Institutionen för molekylärbiologi, UMU Titel meddelas senare Mer information om MedKem-seminarserien och schemat finns <a href="/link/58b6a2ce13504b7d8178e37998567125.aspx?epslanguage=sv">här</a>.KB.E3.01 (Lilla hörsalen), KBC-husetSeminariumhttps://www.umu.se/kalender/medkem-seminarserie-martin-cohn_12182754/2026-12-08T15:15:00+01:002026-12-08T16:00:00+01:00https://www.umu.se/kalender/medkem-seminarserie-yolanda-camara_12182762/Medkem seminarserie - Yolanda CámaraTitel meddelas senareTue, 15 Dec 2026 15:15:00 +0100* Seminarium kommer att vara på engelska.Talare:<h3>Yolanda Cámara</h3>Vall d’Hebron Research Institute, Barcelona, Spain Titel meddelas senare Mer information om MedKem-seminarserien och schemat finns <a href="/link/58b6a2ce13504b7d8178e37998567125.aspx?epslanguage=sv">här</a>.KB.E3.01 (Lilla hörsalen), KBC-husetSeminariumhttps://www.umu.se/kalender/medkem-seminarserie-yolanda-camara_12182762/2026-12-15T15:15:00+01:002026-12-15T16:00:00+01:00
