Brain Health: refers to the ability to remember, learn, play, concentrate and maintain a clear, active mind... Simply, brain health is all about making the most of your brain and helping reduce some risks to it as you age.
Targeted stimulation of the brain has the potential to treat mental illnesses but designing an appropriate protocol requires a multitude of choices. I will describe an approach to help desig...
Recent advances in machine learning have shown that deep neural networks (DNNs) can provide powerful and flexible models of neural sensory processing. In the auditory system, standard linear...

Date: June 8, 2021 Time: 10:00am (PDT), 1:00pm (EDT) Most deaths from ovarian and endometrial cancer are due to high-grade subtypes that metastasize before they are detectable by available...
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is best characterized as brain dysfunction caused by an outside force, usually a violent blow to the head, often occurring as a result of a severe sports injury...
This drug development program is designed to create a family of broad-spectrum, pan-coronaviral drugs that respectively inhibit multiple key enzymes required for viral replication. By target...
Cases of traumatic brain injury (TBI) have been steadily rising over the past decade with most common causes of injury observed among participants in contact sports, combat military personne...
More than 50,700 Americans died of opioid overdose in 2019, and more than 1.6 million Americans live with addiction to opioids. Moreover, more than 50 million Americans suffer from chronic p...
The opioid crisis is a uniquely American challenge. Many factors catalyzed this national nightmare and others continue to fuel it. This presentation delves into some of the major contributor...
The opioid crisis erupted from a tragic convergence of factors from the private and public sectors. Changing sensibilities on opioid use and abuse, perspectives on addiction and recovery, be...
Learning Objectives: 1. Discuss the disease state model of substance use disorder 2. Discuss the evidence surrounding common misconceptions regarding substance use disorder...
As one of the few evidence-based treatments shown to decrease mortality, buprenorphine use has grown in the United States and abroad. Buprenorphine is a first line option for opioid use diso...
Urine drug testing has become an essential part of the management of patients with chronic pain. Testing provides objective information regarding drug compliance, diversion, and abuse to med...
Substance use disorder (SUD) remains a highly stigmatized medical condition in the US. One of the most effective methods of treatment for SUD, specifically for opioid use disorder and alcoho...
RNA plays important and diverse roles in biology, but molecular tools to manipulate and measure RNA are limited. We demonstrate that RNA-targeting CRISPR effector Cas13 can be engineered for...
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are lipid bilayer-delimited pieces of cells that are released from the plasma membrane as "ectosomes" and from the endosomal system as "exosomes.&...
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is the primary technology used to identify genomic targets for vaccine development, detect emerging viral strains and monitor transmission patterns. Enhanced...
As the spread of infectious diseases, current pandemic, and growing antimicrobial resistance (AMR) continues globally, next-generation sequencing (NGS) became a tool to diagnose infectious d...
Sepsis is a life-threatening condition that is caused by the immune system’s inability to respond appropriately to an infection. How sepsis can change the gut microbiome in ways that a...
