Description

Sponsored by SEDCO Research Excellence Awards led by Prof. Ulrich Stingl Focus on possible applications of extremophilic microorganisms from the deep-sea brine pools of the Red Sea: *Recent result on the applications *The potential next steps This workshop will also be attended by distinguished scholars from Saudi Universities and other International universities to illustrate more extreme environments in Saudi, and other possible routes for biotechnological applications of extremophiles. Contains a poster exhibit illustrating: *The history of the SEDCO Research Excellence Award, from expeditions to sample the brine pools 2000m below sea surface, to the cultivation and genomic analysis of extremophiles, *The latest results on potential applications 02:02 – 02:12 p.m. Summary of the Project, Summary of Results, Cultures and Introduction of SEDCO CEO By Prof. Uli Stingl- Assistant Professor of Marine Science (BESE Div.) 02:15 – 02:35 p.m. Bioinformatics platform and data analysis By Prof. Vladimir Bajic –Director for Computational Biosciences Research Center Dr. Intikhab Alam – Research Scientist II 02:35 -02:55 p.m. Novel enzymes from uncultured brine pool organisms By Prof. Jorg Eppinger-Assistant Professor of Chemical Sciences 02:55 – 03:10 p.m. Novel polymerases from brine pool organisms By Prof. Samir Hamdan- Assistant Professor of Chemistry, 03:10 – 03:30 p.m. Anti-cancer activities of brine pool microbes By Dr. Mandeep Kaur- Sr. Research Scientist| Dr. Sunil Sugar- Research Scientist II 03:30 – 04:00 p.m. Effect of harsh Environmental Conditions in distribution of Microbial Community of Cyanobacteria mats in the Intertidal zone of Oil-polluted Coast of Abu-Ali Island, Saudi Arabia By Prof. Assad Al-Thukair – Assoc.
