Importantly\, the locomotor CPG is a flexible neural network that has the capacity to generate a wide range of motor behaviours.Embodiment of locomotor CPG shapes these behaviours by ensuring the output of the locomotor CPG is tuned to the physical features of the body\, the terrain in which it is moving\, and action selection. This is achieved by the integrative interplay between state-dependent sensory feedback and descending supraspinal control. It is also dependent on ascending pathways that provide moment-to-moment updates to the brain on the state of the body and ongoing spinal motor activity.This talk will discuss recent efforts by the Goulding lab to map the spinal sensorimotor circuitry and ascending spinal pathways that control movement\, thereby providing an outline of the underlying functional logic of sensorimotor integration at the level of the spinal cord.\r\n\r\nHost and contact\nAbdel El Manira\n Professor\n Phone: +46852486911\n Email: abdel.elmanira@ki.se\n Department: Department of Neuroscience\r\n\r\nPlease note that location\, time and information can be updated on the website.\r\nhttps://news.ki.se/calendar/neuroscience-seminar-self-knowledge-and-somatosensory-perception-0 CREATED:20261019T142827Z LAST-MODIFIED:20261019T150619Z STATUS:CONFIRMED SUMMARY:Neuroscience seminar: "Self-knowledge and somatosensory perception" END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART:20261022T150000Z DTEND:20261022T160000Z DTSTAMP:20261021T194602Z UID:242349 DESCRIPTION:Video games can provide relaxation\, community and a place to grow.

He later developed the auxin-inducible degron system for animal cells at Osaka University (2006) before joining the National Institute of Genetics as associate professor (2010) and full professor (2016). Since 2022\, he holds a professorship at the University of Tokyo while maintaining his laboratory at the National Institute of Genetics\, where his group applies degron technology to study chromosome replication and other areas of cell biology.Genetic perturbation is a powerful approach for defining protein function in living cells. For essential proteins\, conditional perturbation is particularly valuable because it enables precise\, rapid protein depletion while preserving cell viability. Dr. Kanemaki’s group pioneered auxin-inducible degron (AID) technology\, enabling the targeted degradation of degron-tagged proteins upon auxin addition. Its next-generation system\, AID2\, combines chemical biology with CRISPR-based genome editing to generate conditional mutants in mammalian cells and mice.In this seminar\, Dr. Kanemaki will show how AID2 can reveal mechanisms of human DNA replication and genome maintenance—processes central to cell proliferation\, genome instability\, and cancer. In contrast to the sequence-defined replication origins of yeast\, replication initiation in human cells occurs stochastically within initiation zones\, often near active\, open chromatin. How these zones are established and regulated has remained unclear. He will present a new method to detect initiation zones and discuss the key mechanisms that define and control them in human cells.HostBennie Lemmens\,&\;nbsp\;Department of Medical Biochemistry and Biophysics\, KI &\;nbsp\;&\;nbsp\;&\;nbsp\;&\;nbsp\;&\;nbsp\;&\;nbsp\;&\;nbsp\;&\;nbsp\;&\;nbsp\;&\;nbsp\;&\;nbsp\;&\;nbsp\;&\;nbsp\;&\;nbsp\;&\;nbsp\;&\;nbsp\;&\;nbsp\;&\;nbsp\;&\;nbsp\;&\;nbsp\;&\;nbsp\;&\;nbsp\;&\;nbsp\;\r\n\r\nPlease note that location\, time and information can be updated on the website.\r\nhttps://news.ki.se/calendar/opponent-seminar-exploring-human-dna-replication-with-the-auxin-inducible-degron-technology CREATED:20260904T123143Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260904T123406Z STATUS:CONFIRMED SUMMARY:Opponent Seminar: "Exploring human DNA replication with the auxin-inducible degron technology" END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART:20261026T100000Z DTEND:20261026T110000Z DTSTAMP:20261021T194603Z UID:242475 DESCRIPTION:The GUT seminar series is arranged by the Gastroenterology and Nutrition Unit at the Department of Medicine\, Huddinge.

Among those with fewer than eight years of schooling\, this rises to seven in ten\; multivariate analysis identifies low schooling\, not age or income\, as the dominant risk factor\, a gap not confined to extreme vulnerability alone\, since inadequate literacy also affected privileged respondents. Yet few studies address the barriers this population faces\, or the difficulties professionals encounter understanding and being understood across difference. Foundational multimodal research\, such as Bezemer (2011) study of meaning-making negotiation in the surgery room\, exemplified in "\;scissors\, please\,"\; as well as Bezemer et al (2012)\, show how meaning is multimodally co-constructed in clinical settings\, yet remains inattentive to the complexity of real doctor-patient communication\, difference\, and vulnerable populations. This presentation contributes by examining initial medical education (Maciel &\;amp\; Barbosa\, 2019\, Maciel\, 2026)\, a compulsory health communication module co-taught by an applied linguist and health professionals in a Brazilian medical school. Findings suggest that medical education must be reconceived to both deconstruct and expand students'\; communicative repertoires\, incorporating affective semiotic assemblages and difference as constitutive dimensions of meaning-making\, thereby advancing a political and affective turn in multimodality that expands repertoires and empowers lives.\r\n\r\nBioRuberval Franco Maciel is a distinguished Full Professor at the State University of Mato Grosso do Sul (UEMS)\, where he holds a multifaceted academic role bridging Applied Linguistics and medical education. within the Department of Applied Linguistics\, he is actively engaged in both teaching and supervision. At the UEMS School of Medicine\, Professor Maciel serves as the coordinator and instructor for the module on Health Communication\, specializing in health multiliteracies\, affective health communication\, and the critical integration of soft skills in healthcare practices. He has an extensive track record in academic mentorship\, having supervised 60 medical students in their initial research stages. Furthermore\, he spearheads innovative outreach projects focused on developing humanized\, communicative approaches to the doctor-patient relationship.&\;nbsp\;Professor Maciel’s academic foundation is deeply international. He holds an MA in Applied Linguistics from the University of Reading (UK). He earned his PhD in Linguistics and Literary Studies of English from the University of São Paulo (USP)\, which included a doctoral internship at the University of Manitoba (Canada). He later conducted advanced postdoctoral research at the City University of New York (CUNY)\, USA. He is a recognized leader in his field\, having served as a former President of the Brazilian Association of Applied Linguistics (ALAB). Currently\, Professor Maciel is actively developing robust international research collaborations with partners in Switzerland\, the UK\, Argentina\, Chile\, Paraguay\, and Canada\, Currently. He is currently recognized as a CNPq Pesquisador Produtividade\, receiving a prestigious research grant from the Brazilian National Council.\r\n\r\nThis international series of talks is organised by The UCL Visual and Multimodal Research Forum\, the University of Leeds Multimodality@Leeds and Karolinska Institutet\, Unit of Teaching and Learning.\r\n\r\nPlease note that location\, time and information can be updated on the website.\r\nhttps://news.ki.se/calendar/affect-and-multimodality-in-medical-science-education-exploring-health-literacy-practices-to-humanize-communication CREATED:20260923T083334Z LAST-MODIFIED:20261014T085028Z STATUS:CONFIRMED SUMMARY:Affect and Multimodality in Medical Science Education: Exploring Health Literacy Practices to Humanize Communication END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART:20261026T120000Z DTEND:20261026T120000Z DTSTAMP:20261021T194603Z UID:243618 DESCRIPTION:Title: Developments in causal mediation analysis and loss in life expectancy measures with applications to colorectal cancer\r\n\r\nEvaluation Committee: Senior Lecturer Mark Clements and Postdoc Rafael Cardoso\, Karolinska Institutet\, MEBMain Supervisor: Assistant Professor Elisavet Syriopoulou\, Karolinska Institutet\, MEBCo-supervisor: Senior Lecturer Therese Andersson\, Karolinska Institutet\, MEBAdjunct Professor Caroline Nordenvall\, Karolinska Institutet\, MMKProfessor Paul Dickman\, Karolinska Institutet\, MEBDr. Erik Osterman\, Karolinska Institutet\, MMK\r\n\r\nQiwen He\nQiwen He\n PhD student\n Email: qiwen.he@ki.se\n Department: Department of Medical Epidemiology and Biostatistics\r\n\r\nPlease note that location\, time and information can be updated on the website.\r\nhttps://news.ki.se/calendar/isp-seminar-qiwen-he CREATED:20261012T105248Z LAST-MODIFIED:20261012T105247Z STATUS:CONFIRMED SUMMARY:ISP Seminar: Qiwen He END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART:20261026T140000Z DTEND:20261026T143000Z DTSTAMP:20261021T194603Z UID:239080 DESCRIPTION:Take a break from the screen! \r\n\r\nFika: Today for mental health Monday we have fika at 3 pm in ljusgården.

Only with the knowledge of synaptic wiring diagrams is it possible to understand the computational capacities of neuronal networks\, especially in the mammalian cerebral cortex. Our methods for dense circuit mapping are based on 3-dimensional electron microscopy (EM) imaging of tissue\, which allows imaging nerve tissue at nanometer-scale resolution across substantial volumes\, extending to more than one millimeter on the side\, followed by AI-based image analysis to obtain dense connectivity maps\, or connectomes. With these we have mapped local circuitry in mouse and human cortex\, determining learning-related synaptic traces\, inhibitory axonal development\, and discovering an expanded interneuron-to-interneuron network in the human cortex. Recently\, we completed the connectomic reconstruction of a cortical column\, uncovering a parallel\, inhibition-dominated canonical cortical circuit. We are currently screening cortical connectomes across age\, disease states and experience to obtain a deeper understanding of their relevance for individual behavioral performance and brain pathology.Recent publicationsConnectomic analysis of astrocyte-synapse interactions in the cerebral cortex.&\;nbsp\;Yener\, Y\, Motta\, A\, Helmstaedter M (2025)&\;nbsp\;bioRxiv 10.1101/2025.02.20.639274Connectomic reconstruction of a cortical column.&\;nbsp\;Sievers M\, Motta A\, Schmidt M\, Yener Y\, Loomba S\, Song K\, Bruett J\,&\;nbsp\;Helmstaedter M&\;nbsp\;(2024)&\;nbsp\;bioRxiv 10.1101/2024.03.22.586254RoboEM: automated 3D flight tracing for synaptic-resolution connectomics.Schmidt M\, Motta A\, Sievers M\, Helmstaedter MNat Methods 2024 May\;21(5):908-913High-contrast en bloc staining of mouse whole-brain and human brain samples for EM-based connectomics.Song K\, Feng Z\, Helmstaedter MNat Methods 2023 Jun\;20(6):836-840RefreshmentsSandwiches and coffee will be provided.RegistrationNo registration is needed.\r\n\r\nHost\nMichael Ratz\n Assistant Professor\n Email: michael.ratz@ki.se\r\n\r\nPlease note that location\, time and information can be updated on the website.\r\nhttps://news.ki.se/calendar/frontiers-in-neural-circuits-seminar-series-with-moritz-helmstaedter CREATED:20261012T064743Z LAST-MODIFIED:20261012T074901Z STATUS:CONFIRMED SUMMARY:Frontiers in Neural Circuits seminar series: with Moritz Helmstaedter END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART:20261028T101500Z DTEND:20261028T110000Z DTSTAMP:20261021T194603Z UID:243844 DESCRIPTION:SPATIAL BIOLOGY SEMINAR by LEICA: \r\nSpatial insight starts with an image.

The MEDLEY paradigm takes the opposite stance: it treats disagreement between diverse models not as noise to be averaged away but as evidence in its own right\, a signal about where a case is genuinely uncertain that is preserved and acted on rather than collapsed into a verdict. This talk traces that one principle across four settings:&\;nbsp\;MEDLEY keeps the full spread of differentials in diagnosis instead of one answer\;&\;nbsp\;ASR-MEDLEY uses divergence between independent speech systems as a reference-free signal to flag transcription spans for review\;&\;nbsp\;Triage-MEDLEY escalates to the most severe vote when reasoning models and rule engines disagree on emergency triage\; and&\;nbsp\;MEDLEY-BENCH measures how&\;nbsp\;LLM&\;nbsp\;models behave under epistemic and social pressure\, giving a principled basis for selecting an ensemble whose members genuinely think differently.&\;nbsp\;RegisterRegister to this seminar\, and read more about the following events on HI Conversations.\r\n\r\nPlease note that location\, time and information can be updated on the website.\r\nhttps://news.ki.se/calendar/hi-conversations-with-farhad-abtahi CREATED:20260820T120754Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260820T120753Z STATUS:CONFIRMED SUMMARY:HI Conversations with Farhad Abtahi END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART:20261029T110000Z DTEND:20261029T120000Z DTSTAMP:20261021T194603Z UID:243705 DESCRIPTION:Professor Benicio Frey\, McMaster University\r\n\r\nEvidence from epidemiological and meta-analytic surveys show that individuals with heightened sensitivity to experience mood-related episodes during female-reproductive life events\, such as the premenstrual and postpartum periods\, are more likely to be diagnosed with the bipolar spectrum.

Answering those questions well takes a particular toolkit: exposures that no\r\none can measure directly on each person\, designs built for populations rather than patients\, and analyses that handle\r\ntemporal latencies\, non-linearity and potential synergy between correlated exposures.\r\n\r\nIn three hours we will walk through two real studies end to end — one short-term\, one long-term. You will see where the exposure data come from\, why each design was chosen\, how the analysis was set up\, and what the findings do and do not support. The sessions are conversational rather than technical: no software\, no code\, no prior exposure-assessment experience needed.Who is this forDoctoral students at KI in epidemiology\, public health\, biostatistics\, environmental medicine\, and clinical and health-related fields — and equally their supervisors. Postdocs\, junior and senior researchers\, and clinicians with a research interest are all welcome.Introductory-level epidemiology and biostatistics (Epidemiology I and Biostatistics I\, or equivalent) is enough.

Not one of KI’s 242 doctoral courses currently covers this field\, even though air pollution ranks among the largest global risk factors for disease burden and a changing climate is reshaping the questions we ask.The full week would cover application of environmental exposures (monitoring data\, land-use regression\, dispersion models\, satellite data)\, short-term designs (time-series\, case-crossover\, distributed lag non-linear models)\, long-term cohort designs\, multiple exposures and interaction\, and health impact assessment — with hands-on R practicals and a group study proposal throughout. 1.5 higher-education credits.The last half hour of the workshop is yours.

The seminar will take place on Wednesday\, November 4th\, at 1.00 PM in Ragnar Granit (Biomedicum\, Campus Solna). \r\n\r\n\r\n"\;Psychedelic drug action: cell types and circuits"\;&\;nbsp\;\r\n\r\nSerotonergic psychedelics such as psilocybin and 5-MeO-DMT have re-emerged as promising treatments for psychiatric disorders. Remarkably\, a single administration can produce therapeutic benefits that persist for weeks or even months. How can a transient pharmacological intervention lead to such enduring changes in brain function?In this talk\, I will present studies from my laboratory investigating how psilocybin acts on neural circuits. Using two-photon imaging\, electrophysiology\, viral tracing\, and molecular and behavioral approaches in mice\, we examine how psychedelics can drive transcriptional programs\, promote structural plasticity\, and reshape neural activity. The findings highlight psychedelics as powerful modulators of brain circuits and suggest new directions for psychiatric drug discovery.\r\n\r\nHost\nIoannis Mantas\n \n Email: ioannis.mantas@ki.se\n Department: Department of Neuroscience\r\n\r\nPlease note that location\, time and information can be updated on the website.\r\nhttps://news.ki.se/calendar/stratneuro-seminar-with-alex-kwan CREATED:20261009T110436Z LAST-MODIFIED:20261009T115125Z STATUS:CONFIRMED SUMMARY:StratNeuro Seminar with Alex Kwan END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART:20261104T120000Z DTEND:20261104T120000Z DTSTAMP:20261021T194604Z UID:243571 DESCRIPTION:Thromboinflammation\, proteomics and hemostatic changes in myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN)\r\n\r\nDoctoral studentIngrid Lundahl\, Clinical Chemistry and Blood Coagulation\, MMKMain SupervisorRoza Chaireti\, MMKCo-supervisorsJohanna Ungerstedt\, MedHAnna Ravn-Landtblom\, MedHHalf time committeeJacob Odeberg\, MedS\, Karolinska InstitutetSofia Ramström\, Örebro UniversitetEli Westerlund\, DS\, Karolinska Universitetet&\;nbsp\;\r\n\r\nPlease note that location\, time and information can be updated on the website.\r\nhttps://news.ki.se/calendar/half-time-seminar-ingrid-lundahl CREATED:20261009T121809Z LAST-MODIFIED:20261009T124138Z STATUS:CONFIRMED SUMMARY:Half time seminar: Ingrid Lundahl END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART:20261104T120000Z DTEND:20261104T120000Z DTSTAMP:20261021T194604Z UID:243891 DESCRIPTION:Welcome to our next seminar in the series on Wednesday\, 4 November 2026 at 13:00 in Biomedicum\, Solna.

While many students experiment liberally with these tools\, many educators are still developing confidence to provide guidance on ethical and responsible GenAI use. Here we discuss a project to understand how co-creation\, an approach where students collaborate with educators to design learning experiences\, can support responsible\, critical engagement with GenAI. \r\n\r\nLearning with GenAI through Co-creationIn this session\, we present a pedagogical development project funded through KI'\;s Pedagogical Project Funding initiative. The project explores how co-creation can support responsible and critical engagement with GenAI in education. Co-creation is an approach where students actively collaborate with educators in designing learning experiences\, moving beyond the traditional model of students as passive recipients of knowledge.By involving students in the design of learning activities and discussions about AI use\, co-creation redistributes expertise\, acknowledges uncertainty and encourages democratic engagement with emerging technologies. The approach aims to ensure that teaching remains relevant and engaging while helping students develop the skills needed to learn with GenAI rather than simply use it.During the session\, we will share experiences from the project and invite participants to discuss how co-creation and student-centred learning can be used to engage learners in conversations about GenAI.Why attend?This session is relevant for educators and students who are interested in the opportunities and challenges that GenAI presents in higher education. Join us if you:Wonder how GenAI is affecting student learning.Are looking for ways to engage students in discussions about responsible AI use.Want inspiration for creating more student-centred learning experiences.Are curious about co-creation as an educational approach.SpeakersMatthew Kirkham is a researcher in the Department of Cell and Molecular Biology and serves as Deputy Head of Education and Director of Doctoral Studies within the same department. He is also an experienced educator at Karolinska Institutet\, with leadership roles in the Biomedicine programme\, including course director for undergraduate and master’s level courses and a formal teacher representative on the programme committee.

In this module\, data import\, coding\, and usual descriptive statistics as well as exploratory data analysis regarding basic statistical assumptions are trained.2.&\;nbsp\;To investigate differences with a focus on the T. During the module we practice using three types of t-tests: one-tailed t-test\, independent t-test and paired t-test.3.&\;nbsp\;When two becomes more. In this third module\, ANOVA and repeated measures ANOVA are dealt with\, as they are the natural continuation of t-tests and allow for the comparison of differences in group means.4.&\;nbsp\;To investigate relationships and to be able to predict.&\;nbsp\;Within this module we practice exploring correlations and performing simple and multiple linear regression\, as well as logistic regression.5.&\;nbsp\;When we don'\;t have means. In this final module\, we focus on developing skills to apply non-parametric statistical methods\, including the Mann-Whitney U test\, Wilcoxon signed-rank test\, Kruskal-Wallis test\, and the chi-squared testTeaching and learning activitiesThe workshop series employ a "\;blended learning"\; approach nature the participant first independently takes part in a pre-recorded video lecture to establish a common basis and which is then followed by five digital on-line labs in a workshop format.

As a KI researcher or PhD student\, you are welcome to join a digital workshop on how to write popular science articles for the international news platform The Conversation.\r\n\r\nThe Conversation is an international news platform where academic researchers write their own popular science articles with the support of professional journalists. In collaboration with Karolinska Institutet'\;s Communications Office\, they are hosting a digital workshop on how to write engaging articles for a broad international audience. Many of The Conversation'\;s articles are republished by other media outlets\, giving them the potential to reach a wide audience. Since 2020\, KI researchers have published around 145 articles with over 11\,5 million reads in total.The workshop forms part of KI’s membership of The Conversation UK and aims to introduce participants to The Conversation and its editorial process. You will also gain a better understanding of what characterises a good news article\, the types of articles you can write\, how to find ideas or angles for articles\, and how to pitch an article idea to The Conversation’s editorial team. The presentation will be given in English by Clint Witchalls\, The Conversation’s health and medicine editor\, and will conclude with a voluntary brainstorming session on article ideas\, feedback from the editor and a group discussion.Individual sessions offeredAs a researcher or PhD student at KI\, you may also sign up for a 20-minute one-on-one session with The Conversation'\;s editor in the afternoon\, to discuss your research/expertise\, get help finding the news potential in your research and identify angles you may have missed. Please note that there are a limited number of places and you must register in advance\, first come\, first served.RegistrationRegister for the workshop via Eventbrite.If you are interested in an individual session in the afternoon\, you need to register for it separately via this link.

In this KIND Open Webinar in Swedish\, researchers Sofia Littmarck and Peter Holmqvist highlight how parents and association representatives have advocated for knowledge\, understanding\, rights and tailored support\, particularly in schools\, healthcare and social care. \r\n\r\nThe presentation is based on a historical study of how autism in children was described and categorised in Autism Sverige’s member magazine&\;nbsp\;Ögonblick&\;nbsp\;between 1977 and 2015. The lecture highlights how views on autism have changed over time and how parents and association representatives have argued for&\;nbsp\;knowledge\, understanding\, rights and tailored support\, particularly in schools\, healthcare and social care.&\;nbsp\;\r\n\r\nParticular attention is paid to the interplay between shifts in diagnostic boundaries and categorisations\, welfare policy reforms\, and changing perspectives on integration and inclusion. We highlight how the struggle for tailored support has built on and involved changes in the ways autism in children is categorised\, with changing ways of describing what characterises autism in children and new boundaries in relation to other conditions and disabilities.&\;nbsp\;&\;nbsp\;The phrase a life apart from other people’s comes from a parent who\, at the end of the period\, expresses an experience of struggling for understanding and support\, an account that permeated the entire period studied.&\;nbsp\;\r\n\r\nTitle:&\;nbsp\;Ett liv vid sidan av andras.

The 2026 KBA recipient is Prof. Per-Ola Carlsson (Uppsala University) \r\n\r\nTitle of the prize lecture: "\;Kan typ 1 diabetes botas?"\;Per-Ola Carlsson is a physician-scientist with a distinguished and strong track record in diabetes research. His early work focused on islet physiology\, using preclinical models to investigate the regulation of pancreatic islet blood flow and its importance for endocrine pancreas function. Over the course of his career\, he has made major contributions to translational and clinical diabetes research.A substantial part of his more recent work has been devoted to understanding and improving the function and long-term survival of transplanted human islets\, including the development of strategies to prevent immune-mediated rejection. He has also led randomized clinical trials evaluating the potential of mesenchymal stem cell therapies to preserve residual beta cell function in individuals with recent-onset type 1 diabetes.Most recently\, Per-Ola Carlsson has led the first study in the world to evaluate the survival of genetically engineered insulin-producing cells transplanted in the absence of immunosuppressive therapy.&\;nbsp\;These approaches have demonstrated remarkable success\, with transplanted islets maintaining survival and function in vivo for nearly a year. This highly translational work holds considerable therapeutic promise and has the potential to transform future treatment paradigms for diabetes. His current research program represents a unique and ambitious extension of these groundbreaking studies.In recognition of his outstanding scientific achievements\, sustained research excellence\, and significant potential for clinical impact\, the committee unanimously selected Per-Ola Carlsson as this year'\;s recipient of the Brismar Award.The purpose of the Kerstin Brismar Award is to meet the increasing need for effective clinical research\, by offering research funds to promising and outstanding researchers in the field of diabetes.\r\n\r\nPlease note that location\, time and information can be updated on the website.\r\nhttps://news.ki.se/calendar/kerstin-brismar-award-ceremony-2026 CREATED:20261007T060947Z LAST-MODIFIED:20261007T143642Z STATUS:CONFIRMED SUMMARY:Kerstin Brismar Award Ceremony 2026 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART:20261111T080000Z DTEND:20261111T100000Z DTSTAMP:20261021T194605Z UID:243414 DESCRIPTION:Welcome to Stelios Vlachiotis' half- time seminar: Regulation of lgE production in human B cells.\r\n\r\nStudentStelios Vlachiotis\, Department of Medical Biochemistry and Biophysics\, KITitleRegulation of lgE production in human B cells.SupervisorQiang Pan-Hammarström\, Department of Medical Biochemistry and Biophysics\, KICo-supervisorsMarianne Van Hage\, Department of Medicine Solna\, KIHarold Marcotte\, Department of Medical Biochemistry and Biophysics\, KIHalf- time committeeChristopher Sundling\, Department of Medicine Solna\, KICilla Söderhäll\, Department of Women'\;s and Children'\;s Health\, KIChristoph Ziegenhain\, Department of Medical Biochemistry and Biophysics\, KI\r\n\r\nPlease note that location\, time and information can be updated on the website.\r\nhttps://news.ki.se/calendar/half-time-seminar-stelios-vlachiotis CREATED:20261005T122046Z LAST-MODIFIED:20261005T124312Z STATUS:CONFIRMED SUMMARY:Half- time seminar: Stelios Vlachiotis END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART:20261111T100000Z DTEND:20261111T110000Z DTSTAMP:20261021T194605Z UID:242705 DESCRIPTION:How prepared are we for the next outbreak?

In this talk\, I will argue that algorithmic fairness is better understood as a systems problem. In healthcare algorithms\, for example\, clinical risk scores or AI models\, bias can emerge through the interaction of at least four levels: the social structures that generate inequities\, the data that captures these inequities\, the algorithms trained on that data\, and the healthcare institutions that deploy and act on algorithmic outputs. A complexity science lens\, attentive to feedback loops\, emergence\, and dependency across these levels\, offers epidemiologists a more accurate vocabulary for work than fairness metrics alone. This talk introduces what fairness and bias mean across the social\, data\, algorithmic\, and institutional levels\, and helps the audience begin engaging with these challenges as systemic ones.60 mins including questionsWelcome also to a workshop this afternoon with Tibor Varga.

The event will be held in Swedish. \r\n\r\nResearchers associated with KIND (Center of Neurodevelopmental Disorders at KI) come together to explore complex questions and discuss different perspectives. The format is discussion-based\, with an emphasis on openness and transparency: no predetermined answers\, and no simple right or wrong.The day will focus on two current concepts: masking (camouflaging) and EDA (Extreme Demand Avoidance\, also referred to as PDA\, Pathological Demand Avoidance). Each theme begins with an introductory lecture providing background and an overview of the current state of research\, followed by a discussion exploring different perspectives. Professor Sven Bölte will also give brief introductions to the concepts of Body Doubling and Double Empathy. &\;nbsp\;Buy tickets\r\n\r\nBuy tickets\nhttps://billetto.se/e/kind-diskuterar-biljetter-1984877?utm_source=organiser&\;utm_medium=share&\;utm_campaign=copy_link&\;utm_content=1984877\r\n\r\nProgramme10.00–10.15Introduction and structure• Sven Bölte\, Head of KIND• Elisabeth Nilsson Jobs\, Director of Education at KIND10.15–10.45Body Doubling• Sven Bölte&\;nbsp\;10.45–11.00Break11.00–12.00Theme: Masking and camouflaging in autism• Karl Lundin Remnelius• Terje Falck-Ytter• Elisabeth Nilsson Jobs12.00–13.00Lunch break13.00–13.30Double Empathy• Sven Bölte&\;nbsp\;13.30–13.45Break13.45–14.45Theme: EDA (also known as PDA)• Tatja Hirvikoski• Johanna Ristolainen Spak• Ulrika Långh14.45–15.00Closing remarks\r\n\r\nPractical informationDate: 12 November 2026Time: 10:00–15:00Cost: SEK 295Location: Online via Teams\; link provided when you purchase a ticketWe are unable to refund purchased tickets.The event will be held in Swedish.&\;nbsp\;Buy your ticket here\r\n\r\nContributorsSven Bölte\, Professor of Child and Adolescent Psychiatric Science and Director of the Center of Neurodevelopmental Disorders at Karolinska Institutet (KIND).Terje Falck-Ytter\, Professor of Psychology at Uppsala University and Principal Researcher at KIND.Tatja Hirvikoski\, Associate Professor of Clinical Psychology\, Head of the Unit for Research\, Development and Education at Habilitation &\;amp\; Health\, Stockholm\, and research group leader at KIND.Elisabeth Nilsson Jobs\, Research Specialist and Head of KIND Education.Ulrika Långh\, licensed psychologist and psychotherapist\, researcher affiliated with KIND\, and active at Habilitering &\;amp\; Hälsa in Region Stockholm.Karl Lundin Remnélius\, licensed psychologist\, Postdoctoral Researcher at KIND and researcher at Uppsala University.Johanna Ristolainen Spak\, Psychologist and PhD Student at Karolinska Institutet.&\;nbsp\;Contact &\;amp\; questionskind-diskuterar@ki.se\r\n\r\nPlease note that location\, time and information can be updated on the website.\r\nhttps://news.ki.se/calendar/kind-discussions CREATED:20260922T121136Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260922T124837Z STATUS:CONFIRMED SUMMARY:KIND Discussions END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART:20261112T110000Z DTEND:20261112T114500Z DTSTAMP:20261021T194605Z UID:242574 DESCRIPTION:Professor Søren Dinesen Østergaard (Aarhus University and Aarhus University Hospital) will present findings from the study Potentially Harmful Consequences of Artificial Intelligence (AI) Chatbot Use Among Patients With Mental Illness. \r\n\r\nIn addition to discussing the emerging role of ChatGPT and similar tools among patients with mental illness\, he will describe how the study was conducted using electronic health record (EHR) data\, including the regulatory\, ethical\, and practical processes required to access and analyze such data within the Danish healthcare system.&\;nbsp\;PresenterProfessor Søren Dinesen Østergaard\, Aarhus University and Aarhus University HospitalZoom linkJoin the seminar via Zoom\r\n\r\nPlease note that location\, time and information can be updated on the website.\r\nhttps://news.ki.se/calendar/clinicum-seminar-series-using-danish-ehr-data-to-understand-ai-chatbot-use-in-psychiatry-and-its-consequences CREATED:20260904T130200Z LAST-MODIFIED:20261008T101803Z STATUS:CONFIRMED SUMMARY:Clinicum seminar series: Using Danish EHR data to understand AI chatbot use in psychiatry and its consequences END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART:20261112T111500Z DTEND:20261112T114500Z DTSTAMP:20261021T194605Z UID:229603 DESCRIPTION:The swedish winter can be wonderful\, but some struggle with the cold\, the darkness and having less energy than normal.

Yet dominant academic traditions have often privileged particular forms of reasoning and evidence\, obscuring the intellectual contributions of peoples and communities whose understandings of knowledge emerge from other histories\, cosmologies\, and ways of living.Drawing particularly on Indigenous\, Afro-Brazilian\, and Latin American intellectual traditions\, this lecture explores the plurality of ways in which knowledge is constituted\, experienced\, expressed\, and shared. It considers how thinking\, feeling\, memory\, embodiment\, ancestry\, territory\, and relationships with human and more-than-human beings participate in the making of knowledge. In dialogue with thinkers such as Silvia Rivera Cusicanqui\, Orlando Fals Borda\, Marisol de la Cadena\, Lélia Gonzalez\, Eduardo Viveiros de Castro\, and Ailton Krenak\, the&\;nbsp\;aim of the workshop is to examine how different epistemologies\, ontologies\, and cosmologies invite us to reconsider what counts as knowledge\, who is recognized as a knower\, and how different worlds become present\,or remain invisible\, within academic inquiry.Drawing on experiences with participatory and visual research\, the&\;nbsp\;workshop&\;nbsp\;also reflects on the possibilities and challenges of engaging with diverse ways of knowing in&\;nbsp\;health care&\;nbsp\;research practices\, including the ethical and relational responsibilities that such encounters entail.Rather than positioning these intellectual traditions as alternatives awaiting recognition by Western academia\, the presentation acknowledges their longstanding contributions and continuing vitality.
