6月16日美国Los Alamos 国家实验室研究员韩顺生博士访问澳门皇家赌场，下午4:30在4101教室作了一场题为《环境微生物的群体和单细胞基因组》的讲座。精神卫生学院、临床学院、公共卫生学院和医学检验系的部分师生参加了讲座。
讲座摘要：
细菌是地球上最古老的生物，生活在各种环境中，包括南极的冰层到海底火山口附近的热水当中，他们与环境的变化和人类的健康有密切关系。人体中的细菌的数量是人体细胞数目的10倍。从第一个细菌基因组测序以来，有1200多个细菌基因组已被测序，这些基因组的测序对人们研究细菌在实验室和环境中的功能和变化起到了重要作用。这些已被测序的基因组多来自于能够在实验室中培养的细菌种类，近来研究发现环境中有上百万不同的细菌种类，人的肠道内至少有1000种不同的细菌，他们大部分都不能在实验室中培养，近来人们用群体基因组和单细胞基因组的方式对它们进行测序，本报告将对这一工作的方法和结果进行讨论。
英文简介：
Shunsheng Han is the computational finishing team leader at the Joint Genome Institute in Los Alamos National Laboratory. He received his undergraduate degree from Jining Medical College in medicine, his Masters Degree from Suzhou Medical College in psychiatry. He worked in a mental hospital for 4 years as a psychiatrist. Mr. Han got his Ph.D. in 1996 from Fudan University in Genetics. Since then, as an extension of his dissertation on mapping hte human genome, he has spent the last 16 years working at LANL on the Human Genome Project. He developed the overgo (overlapped oligonucleotide) probes in mapping chromosome 16. The whole chromosome was mapped with artificial bacterial chromosomes in less than six months. He then worked on analyzing human chromosome 16, resulting in a publication in Nature. Han established and has been leading the computational finishing team since 2003. His effort contribute the finishing of more than 400 bacterial genomes from the genome center, which is more than thirty percent of the world's finished genomes.
