SUMMARY:Science in Medicine Lecture Series: Alex Meeske\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, December 11\, 2025\n11:00 am – 12:00 pm\nFoege South Auditorium & Zoom Webinar \nPhage transcription factors that silence CRISPR-Cas immunity\nBiography \nDr. Meeske earned his Bachelor of Science from the University of Connecticut. He then conducted his PhD studies with Dr. David Rudner at Harvard Medical School\, where he studied the processes by which bacteria construct their protective envelope (the cell wall). He went on to do postdoctoral work with Dr. Luciano Marraffini at The Rockefeller University\, where he investigated the complex immune systems used by bacteria to protect themselves from viruses. One of these immune systems\, called CRISPR\, has been exploited for precise and programmable DNA editing in a wide range of organisms – an approach with curative potential for many genetic diseases. At UW\, Dr. Meeske’s group has continued to explore the functions of bacterial immune systems\, how viruses have evolved to overcome them\, and how we can leverage these processes to develop new biotechnology tools. His Science in Medicine Lecture will cover the diverse molecular mechanisms by which Listeria phages inhibit CRISPR immunity.

SUMMARY:Diversity in Clinical Trials Policy Info Session
DESCRIPTION:The University of Washington is implementing new reporting requirements for clinical trials subject to the UW Diversity in Clinical Trials (DCT) policy. These changes support compliance with Washington State’s Diversity in Clinical Trials law (RCW 69.78) and aim to improve the completeness and quality of enrollment data for underrepresented populations. \nKey Details: \n\nApplies to new clinical trials subject to the UW DCT policy that are submitted to HSD on or after January 1\, 2026.\nEnrollment data must be reported using OnCore\, UW’s Clinical Trial Management System (CTMS).\nClinical trials reporting solely for compliance with the UW DCT policy have reduced reporting requirements.\nClinical trials that are already required to report in OnCore (e.g.\, oncology studies\, studies with UW Medicine billable activities) should adhere to those more robust reporting requirements. For these study teams\, no additional training will be required under the DCT pathway.\n\nCompliance Monitoring: \n\nEnrollment data\, or an indication that no enrollments occurred\, must be entered at least annually.\nCTMS will run monthly reports to identify studies overdue for data entry.\nStudy teams not meeting these reporting requirements will be referred to HSD for follow-up.\n\nUpcoming Webinars: \nTo support onboarding\, the CTMS Program Office will host informational webinars on: \n\nDecember 12\, 2025- 12:00-1:00 PM PT- Register\nJanuary 14\, 2026- 9:00-10:00 AM PT- Register \n\nFor questions contact CTMS@fredhutch.org or hsdinfo@uw.edu.
