The 4DN Consortium Scientific Webinar Series is designed to promote sharing ideas and establishment of new collaborations among the consortium members. It features scientific presentations by 4DN member group. These presentations are focused on new discoveries, and new approaches and are not meant to be high-level summaries of deliverables/objectives of each project as in annual consortium meetings. Each group is strongly encouraged to present unpublished research. The PI of each member group may designate either themselves or members of their group to give the presentation.

The format of this webinar series will consist of hour-long online video conferences. Each Webinar will feature two presentations, with each presentation allocated 20’ of talk time followed by 10’ of discussion. All member groups of 4DN consortium are expected to present once in this round, although some centers may present twice given the size of their grants.

The Webinar organization committee has discussed and come up with a schedule for presentations after February 2021. See the schedule here: Scientific Webinar Assignment 2021-2024.

The schedule is ranked by funded project and the corresponding PI's last name. While the corresponding PI is put in the presentation slot, it is up to the corresponding PI to decide who in their team is to give the talk. It is encouraged that trainees are given the chance to present. If the corresponding PI wants to switch with someone else on the list in a mutual agreement, then she/he has the responsibility to arrange it and let the Webinar organization committee know.

8:00-9:00 am Pacific Time,

4DN Tutorial Series #1 (Announcement in PDF format)

“The 4DN Data Portal - Data, Resources and Tools to help elucidate nuclear organization in space and time”

Presenterr: Andrew Schroeder, Senior Data Curator

Andrew Schroeder is currently working as part of the 4D Nucleome Data Coordination and Integration Center, assisting with project management and focusing on data management. Andrew received his PhD in Molecular and Cellular Biology from UMass, Amherst, followed by postdoctoral research at Tufts Medical School on circadian rhythms and neurobiology in Drosophila. Andrew then joined FlyBase, a database of Drosophila Genes and Genomes as a data curator and software developer at Harvard University, shifting from wet lab research to computational biology before joining the Park lab and the 4DN-DCIC.

4DN - DCIC

The 4D Nucleome Network aims to understand the principles underlying nuclear organization in space and time, the role nuclear organization plays in gene expression and cellular function, and how changes in nuclear organization affect normal development as well as various diseases. To that end, the 4DN data portal hosts a variety of data generated from sequencing and imaging based assays, with an emphasis on data from chromatin conformation capture (CCC) techniques and more recently multiplexed FISH imaging experiments.

This tutorial will introduce:

• How to navigate the metadata to find those data that are of interest.
• How to download data files.
• How CCC and other genomic data can be visualized in the portal with HiGlass.
• How to find information and software used on the portal for standardized bioinformatics analyses.
• Highlighted data collections and resources.
• A hosted jupyterhub for preliminary data exploration on the cloud.

The Webinar Series will be on the 4th Friday of each month from 8am-9am Pacific Time, 11am-12pm Eastern Time.
