Summary
#neuroscience #brainorganoid #precisionmedicine TOWARDS PREDICTING STRUCTURE FUNCTION RELATION IN BRAIN ORGANOIDS Professor Jen Schwarz is a theoretical physicist grappling with such questions as: How does one build a multiscale, computational model for the structure of a developing organoid, such as a brain organoid? Can such a multiscale, computational model be used to understand how human-derived brain organoids are structurally different from chimpanzee-derived brain organoids? As organoids are accelerating the field of precision medicine, how, ultimately, can such a multiscale, computational model assist in predicting what treatments would be most effective in a patient with a particular brain disease based on initial tests conducted on their own brain organoid? Moreover, Professor Schwarz is working towards unraveling the structure-function relationship in brain organoids by asking how brain organoids learn, otherwise known as organoid intelligence, and does the structure of a brain organoid affect its learning capability, i.e., its functionality? Given her physics background, she is also studying how physical systems, or nonliving systems made out of purely synthetic material, learn to uncover emergent, unifying principles of learning in both living and nonliving matter. Professor Jen Schwarz obtained her PhD from Harvard University in 2002, did postdoctoral work at Syracuse University, the University of California, Los Angeles, and the University of Pennsylvania, USA, before returning to Syracuse University to become a faculty member, where she is now a Professor of Physics. Some of Professor Schwarz's awards include a National Science Foundation CAREER Award (USA) in 2007 and an Isaac Newton Award for Transformative Ideas during the COVID Pandemic from the Department of Defense (USA) in 2020.
