RIKEN IMS AnnualReport 2020

IMS Crosstalk is a monthly seminar started in January 2020 IMS Researcher Seminar series was held once every month 77Table: Resercher Seminars Jan-Dec 2020aiming to boost “crosstalk” between the researchers in IMS. Since a new RIKEN Center for Integrative Medical Sciences (IMS) was formed through the merger of the previous IMS and the Division of Genomic Technologies (DGT), IMS became more comprehensive while centering on genomics and immunology. As such, interactions and collaborations between the researchers have become more relevant to achieve our mission in IMS, which is to clarify the pathogenic mechanisms underlying human dis-eases and to translate this knowledge into novel therapies for the benefit of society.In general, the term “crosstalk” means a situation in which a communications system is picking up the “wrong signals”. How-ever, in the biological field, crosstalk is not the “wrong signals” but rather is vital for biological phenomenon including, for ex-ample, “crosstalk between signaling pathways” and “crosstalk in lymphocyte activation”. Similarly, in the IMS Crosstalks, “cross-with the aims to promote scientific discussions among IMS young researchers, to introduce research activities conducted in the IMS laboratories, to improve presentation skills of IMS young researchers and to prepare researchers for presenting outside of talk” indicates the scientific interactions and mutual stimulation of the researchers.To achieve the purpose, speakers are expected to introduce their laboratory activities focusing on a coherent topic with a broad introduction and general perspectives without exces-sive details of the data. Additionally, a facilitator is assigned for each topic to promote the discussion, which is uncommon for our usual internal seminars. Importantly, we have ongoing col-laborations within IMS, which have already established crosstalk between laboratories with different backgrounds. Therefore, researchers from multiple laboratories can make a joint presen-tation to further promote their collaborations and to stimulate other researchers.We have had a total of 21 topics by 25 laboratories including 4 joint presentations so far and have another 18 topics scheduled in 2021. We believe that the crosstalk will play a useful role to pro-mote the IMS mission.RIKEN and at job interviews. At the seminars, research scientists, postdocs, research associates and graduate students presented their work. They received questions and comments from the audience at the end of their talk, and intriguing ideas were ex-changed.Figure: IMS Crosstalks 2020From Table: Focus on a coherent topic with a broad introduction and general perspectives without excessive details of the data.DateTalk 1 [12:00~12:30]facilitatorspeaker (s)Hiroshi OhnoS.FagarasanMomoko Horikoshi & Kaoru ItoC.TeraoKengo UsuiCC.HonKenya HondaI.TaniuchiMakoto AritaY.
