Disease modeling is the use of a disease model, which is an animal or cells containing all or some of the pathological characteristics and mechanisms of a disease, to study that particular disease.
The pre-operative assessment and post-operative is critical for successful surgical procedures which will in turn lead to high quality outcomes in research studies. The care of the animals go...
The field of surgical research has been growing rapidly with the development of new surgical and disease models. An extremely important and often overlooked aspect of creating these models is...
Some commonly accepted principles of biosafety include the strict adherence to standard laboratory practices and techniques, the use of safety equipment such as primary barriers and personal...
Oncogenic mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) or 2 (IDH2) compromise their normal activity and induce NADPH-dependent (D)2-hydroxyglutarate (2HG) production within the cytosol or m...
Mass spectrometry (MS)-based profiling of clinical specimens has been increasingly used in cancer research to characterize changes in protein expression between tumor and healthy tissue or be...
Fusion genes play a central role in many cancer types. They have been used to classify malignancy, risk factors, disease prognosis, and companion diagnostic biomarkers for certain approved dr...
Human malignant glioma is a uniformly fatal disease, causing over 14,000 deaths in the US this year. Adults diagnosed with malignant brain tumors have a median survival of approximately 15 mo...
Obesity is associated with an aggressive subtype of breast cancer called basal-like breast cancer (BBC). Using C3(1)-TAg mice, a genetically engineered mouse model that resembles human BBC, w...
The comprehensive, multidimensional molecular characterization of tumors and the individuals in which they have developed is transforming cancer definition, diagnosis, treatment, and preventi...
Although robust and clinically meaningful biomarkers are key to achieving the current vision for precision (molecularly based), cancer medicine (patient stratification, early diagnosis, drug...
The effective implementation of personalised cancer therapeutic regimens depends on the successful identification and translation of informative biomarkers to aid clinical decision-making. An...
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...
The RNA-guided nuclease Cas9 from the microbial CRISPR adaptive immune system has emerged as an exciting tool for precise genome editing in eukaryotic cells. This presentation will discuss th...
Professor Stockwell will discuss the discovery of ferroptosis, a novel model of regulated but non-apoptotic cell death. He will describe how some tumors are sensitized to ferroptosis and may...
This presentation will focus on NuMediis general approach towards the discovery of new therapeutic uses for existing drugs. While the business models for repurposing marketed drugs versus rep...
In this webinar, we will describe a comprehensive approach for NGS-based marker discovery and the successful migration of these markers to targeted NGS assays using low-quality (FFPE) and low...
When whole genome and whole exome sequencing are introduced into health care, and offered directly to consumers in commercial settings, the landscape of genetic testing will drastically chang...
The comprehensive, multidimensional molecular characterization of tumors and the individuals in which they have developed is transforming cancer definition, diagnosis, treatment, and preventi...
In this presentation I describe pathway based analyses of genotyping data to identify pathways related to the development of complex diseases, with a focus on lung cancer and selected autoimm...
Gene therapy for two forms of inherited retinal degeneration have met promising safety and efficacy endpoints in early stage clinical trials. These approaches made use of a replication defect...
The Cas9 endonuclease from the microbial adaptive immune system CRISPR can be easily programmed to bind or cleave specific DNA sequence using a short RNA guide. Cas9 is enabling the generatio...
Structural variants (SVs), defined as the deletion, duplication, insertion, inversion or translocation of genomic regions, are both a major source of genetic diversity in human populations an...
Obesity is a disease. It was once not considered to be a disease and to be a matter of will power and gluttony. It was also the case that we once thought that fat tissue had no metabolic func...
Clinical laboratory information provides decision support for most healthcare providers and impacts care processes and patient outcomes throughout the entire health services delivery system....
