A genetic test (DNA test) is a test used to assess the changes in the DNA or chromosome structure. This can be used in the medical field to rule out or discover possible genetic conditions of a patient.
There are an urgent need for antivirals to treat the newly emerged SARS-CoV-2. We set out to develop cell-based screens to repurpose existing drugs for use against SARS-CoV-2. Our goal was t...
Richard Hughes: New immunogenicity strategies to meet the needs of a developing pandemic Shortly after the COVID-19 pandemic began, the subject of serological testing for anti-viral antibodi...
Learning Objectives: 1. Understanding the integral value of collaboration for advancement in scientific research; how to establish and grow academic, Pharma, and industry connections 2. Lear...
Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is the cause of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) and responsible for the current pandemic. Here, we present an in-depth study...
In less than nine months, the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has killed hundreds of thousands of people, including >23,000 in New York City (NYC) alone. The...
PerkinElmer is a global leader in the development of instrumentation and probes for small animal non-invasive imaging, including optical and µCT imaging. Through optical imaging, we ha...
In recent months, we have seen a large part of the global scientific community shift to infectious disease research. In response, researchers are exploring safer and easier methods to handle...

In this webinar, we will present QIAGEN CLC Genomics Workbench and its utility for bacterial isolate identification, strain discrimination using core genome multi-locus typing (cgMLST) and d...
DATE: September 10, 2020 TIME: 10:00am PT The vast majority of preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A) in the United States is performed using one of two NGS-based platforms,...
Enigmatic and often vilified, viruses are now known to play important and possibly indispensable roles in the biology and ecology of cellular organisms. Evidence of viral impacts are everywh...
Microbial biofilms form on all aquatic surfaces and can harbor pathogenic bacteria. In the aquaculture industry, Flavobacteria species can cause serious diseases and lead to high mortality....
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...
The host response to infection is a critical determinant of virus pathogenicity. Emerging viruses require the host cellular machinery to replicate and successfully infect new hosts, and must...
Focusing on the urgent clinical problem of increasing carbapenem resistance in Enterobacteriaceae we have been evaluating detection methods in clinical microbiology and molecular transmissio...
Epidemics are occurring at an increasing pace and scale. Our laboratory group has developed platform technologies for discovery of broad and potent neutralizing antibodies for many emerging...
HIV currently infects almost 40 million people worldwide. The virus is responsible for ~2 million new infections per year and ~1 million deaths. Like all retroviruses, HIV integrates a viral...
My group is addressing fundamental questions in evolutionary biology, using both genome- and phenotype-first approaches. A few years ago, we discovered that Arabidopsis thaliana is a great m...
Traditionally, virology has been focused in studying the pathogenic effect of viruses. In the recent years, however, this perception is changing and viruses are being studied as mutualistic...
Human chromosome 19q13.4 contains genes encoding killer-cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIR). The region has certain properties such as single nucleotide variation, structural variation,...
The regions of our genome responsible for encoding the genes that regulate our immune response are some of the most complex and polymorphic known. This complexity encompasses multiple types...
