The term interdisciplinary describes a specialty relating to multiple branches of knowledge. In medical research, an interdisciplinary team is made up of clinicians and researchers who specialize in different fields working together to provide the best for a patient.
Next-generation DNA sequencing has opened new possibilities for microbial water quality monitoring, particularly for addressing emerging concerns like antibiotic resistance and opportunistic...
The miniaturized total chemical analysis system has been successfully repurposed over the past twenty years or so for engineering cellular microenvironments which more faithfully mimic in viv...
NSD2 catalyzes the mono- and di-methylation of the e-amine of lysine 36 from histone H3, utilizing the methyl donor S-adenosyl-L-methionine. Increased catalytic activity of NSD2, either by ov...
Complex disease phenotypes - obesity, type II diabetes, and cancer challenge simple models in both evolution and biology. Examination of molecular networks and their dynamic behavior o...
Is sensory awareness facilitated by activity in only sensory cortices? For several decades, this has been the dominant viewpoint among many prominent voices in both neuroscience and philosoph...
Psychiatric diagnosis is inherently difficult, due to the lack of clear biomarkers or any other objective assessment. Although quantitative, the psychometric scales employed during the psychi...
Structure based drug design is now well established as a highly efficient approach in pharmaceutical research. The approach uses atomic level detail structures of target proteins, most...
DATE: January 25, 2018TIME: 10:00am PST, 1:00pm EST, 6:00pm GMTOncolytic virotherapy, the use of viral vectors to treat cancer, holds huge promise. Viruses are natural DNA delivery vehi...
Contractile non-muscle cells, including smooth muscle and myoepithelial cells, provide the mechanical forces required for tissue homeostasis in numerous organ systems. For example, smooth mus...
Although the cell is commonly referred to as “the most basic unit of life”, it is actually so complex that despite over 350 years of research we are still far from fully understan...
Males and females differ in their immunological responses to viral and vaccine antigens, with females typically mounting higher immune responses than males. These sex-based immunological diff...
Increasing prevalence and severity of multi-drug-resistant (MDR) bacterial infections has necessitated novel antibacterial strategies. Ideally, new approaches would target bacterial pat...
The study of inherited genomic variation through genome wide association studies (GWAS) promised to provide key biologic insight into common diseases of public health significance such as obe...
The generation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from adult easily accessible somatic tissues was introduced ten years ago. This technology has revolutionized our opportunities to stu...
The human body is populated with trillions of microorganisms, collectively termed the human microbiome, that play vital roles in health including nutrition and metabolism, immune development,...
Recent advances in next-generation sequencing (NGS) have helped to accelerate the pace of discovery in the field of genetic disease research and testing. The ability to analyze multiple genes...
Genomic Medicine is an incredibly fast moving field awash in information. Successful practice requires ongoing access to authoritative and regularly-updated, yet focused resources for both pr...
Multidimensional molecular characterization has led to a tsunami of cancer data. Precision Medicine assumes that new understanding and better interventions will flow from this “Big Data...
The world–as microbes perceive it–is composed of physical and chemical stimuli. These stimuli create conditions that result in life or death for microbes, affecting their survival...
This presentation will discuss fundamental physical, chemical, and biological concepts important to understanding control of detrimental biofilms. Four phenomena that are important in the act...
Errors in healthcare can have catastrophic results for patients. Work settings with a strong interdisciplinary teamwork culture can decrease the opportunities for errors to occur. Teamwork co...
The comprehensive, multidimensional molecular characterization of tumors and the individuals in which they have developed is transforming cancer definition, diagnosis, treatment, and preventi...
The modern era of Precision Medicine requires targeted delivery of molecular inhibitors that control key processes in disease pathways. PARP (Poly ADP Ribose Polymerase) plays a crucial role...
