The study of these systems has proven extraordinarily fruitful for biotechnology: CRISPR-Cas9, originally discovered as a bacterial defense mechanism, has revolutionized genome editing and demonstrated the transformative potential of mining bacterial immunity for molecular tools.<br>\r\nYet the diversity of bacterial defense extends far beyond CRISPR. Bacteria have evolved numerous strategies to recognize and destroy foreign DNA, many of which remain poorly understood at the mechanistic level. A central question is how these systems distinguish self from non-self — and how the underlying molecular logic of DNA targeting is encoded in protein structure and biochemistry. We combine cryo-electron microscopy, quantitative biochemistry, and in vivo genomics to characterize newly discovered defense systems and dissect their targeting mechanisms. This work is revealing unexpected principles of foreign DNA recognition, with implications both for our understanding of bacterial immunity and for the development of next-generation biotechnological tools for genome editing and beyond.</p>", "image_description": "Bravo", "creation_date": "2026-05-18T10:59:28", "last_modification_date": "2026-05-18T10:59:28", "link_label": "", "link_url": "", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "SV 1717", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==SV%201717", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "Jack Bravo, Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA)", "organizer": "Melanie Blokesch", "contact": "[email protected]", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 2, "fr_label": "Public averti", "en_label": "Informed public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/120785/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/5/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/6/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/8/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/9/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/53/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/27/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 71912, "title": "Brown Bag Seminar in Finance", "slug": "brown-bag-seminar-in-finance-6", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/brown-bag-seminar-in-finance-6", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33231/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33231/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33231/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-09-14", "end_date": "2026-09-14", "start_time": "12:15:00", "end_time": "13:15:00", "description": "", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-05-20T14:42:20", "last_modification_date": "2026-05-20T14:49:50", "link_label": "", "link_url": "", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "UNIL, Extranef, room 126", "url_place_and_room": "", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "Hao Xing, Boston University Questrom", "organizer": "<a href=\"https://www.bu.edu/questrom/profiles/hao-xing/\">Hao Xing - Boston University Questrom</a>", "contact": "[email protected]", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 2, "fr_label": "Public averti", "en_label": "Informed public" }, "registration": { "id": 2, "fr_label": "Sur invitation", "en_label": "Invitation required" }, "keywords": "", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/120814/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/3/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/39/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/105/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/116/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 71668, "title": "Smarter Funding Searches: Practical Training with ResearchConnect", "slug": "smarter-funding-searches-practical-training-with-r", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/smarter-funding-searches-practical-training-with-r", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32998/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32998/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32998/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-05-28", "end_date": "2026-05-28", "start_time": "12:15:00", "end_time": "13:30:00", "description": "<p>The Research Office makes availble <a href=\"https://www.epfl.ch/research/funding/\">several tools</a> to connect researchers to the most appropriate funding opportunities.

In this talk, I will suggest that theoretical computer science offers a way to design and build alternatives. Drawing on work on Self-Proving Models and on research with the Cetacean Translation Initiative (Project CETI), I will describe how theory can help turn ideas such as verification and respect for the object of study into well-defined research questions.<br>\r\n \r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li><strong>Talk 2:</strong> <strong>Before You Train That Model: Legal and Ethical Basics for AI Research at EPFL </strong>(15 min)</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nBy <a href=\"https://people.epfl.ch/gaia.barazzetti\">Gaia Barazzetti</a> – Senior Research Ethics Compliance Officer, EPFL Research Office and <a href=\"https://people.epfl.ch/valentin.conrad\">Valentin Conrad</a> – Senior Legal Counsel, EPFL Legal Affairs<br>\r\n<br>\r\nTaking scientific integrity as a starting point, this presentation provides an overview of the legal and ethical rules that apply to AI research at EPFL.

This presentation focuses on the practical work of ethics committees in reviewing research projects involving AI. It highlights how committees examine assumptions, risks, impacts, and responsibilities throughout the research process, including the use of AI as a tool and as an object of study. The talk aims to clarify the specific contribution of ethics review in supporting responsible and reflective AI enabled research.<br>\r\n \r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li><strong>Talk 4: AI for research and research about AI: a responsible design approach </strong>(10 min)</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nBy <a href=\"https://people.epfl.ch/cecile.hardebolle\">Cécile Hardebolle</a> – Teaching Advisor (EPFL CEDE), Project Officer (EPFL LEARN) and Lecturer (EPFL SIN)<br>\r\n<br>\r\nAI is increasingly present in research, whether as a tool or as an object of research, which raises specific risks if ethical considerations are overlooked. This talk presents a practical approach to identifying, assessing, and managing these risks throughout the research lifecycle by embedding responsible design practices from the start.<br>\r\n \r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li><strong>Panel for Q&A, open discussion</strong></li>\r\n</ul>\r\nModeration by <a href=\"https://people.epfl.ch/nora.turoman\">Nóra Turoman</a>, Training Specialist for Academic and Research Support – EPFL Library.<br>\r\n \r\n<div> </div>\r\nThe event is free upon <a href=\"https://bookwhen.com/epfl_library/e/ev-sbesy-20260526121500\">registration</a>.
