Wastewater samples are challenging substrates for nucleic acid extraction, and choice of extraction method will determine the success of downstream analysis. Extraction methods must be able...
The Sarbecoviruses encodes a large panel of highly heterogeneous, but related zoonotic, epidemic and pandemic coronaviruses that include SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV2, which have been associated wit...
The need for next-generation, broadly protective coronavirus vaccines is underscored by the accelerated pace at which human coronaviruses have been emerging, the evolution of the current pan...
Neurological manifestations, including headache, altered mental status, and stroke, are a major complication of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection and cor...
During COVID-19, he has been one of the leaders of institutional and community education around the disease. He has been part of numerous University initiatives including outreach to the Asi...
This presentation will focus on the near- and medium-term future of COVID. COVID will become endemic, but what does this really mean? How will COVID affect longevity in the United States? Wh...
During the first year of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, international monitoring of SARS-CoV-2 genomic RNA revealed that the virus accumulated roughly 2 mutations per month. Nonetheless, one nonsy...

Up until now, Big Data in healthcare has failed to drive any real progress in curing disease. However, we have just now reached a cost and throughput threshold in sequencing and bioinformati...
A hypoxic tumour microenvironment is a feature of solid tumours. Many tumour types contain high fractions of hypoxic tissue. The relationship between high levels of tumour hypoxia and a poor...
In 2013, a separate diagnosis of PTSD was introduced into the DSM-V to mitigate the well-known issue of accurately differentiating between PSTD and other psychiatric disorders. In addition t...
Genomics has had rapid implementation over the past decade, with recent growth in application in oncology, mental health, maternal fetal medicine, solid organ transplantation, and more. Much...
The COVID-19 pandemic has taken a dramatic toll worldwide. Its impact possibly has been the most palpable amongst uniquely vulnerable groups of patients, such as patients with a cancer diagn...

Learning Objectives: 1. Discuss the potential for newborn screening by whole genome sequencing. 2. Review the current evidence for the sensitivity and specificity of newborn screening by who...
While early genetic diagnosis can guide critical care management, the turnaround time for whole genome based diagnostic testing is months. Recent programs in neonatal populations have reduce...
The human genome encodes 25,000 genes. But the biological complexity inherent in polygenic traits is a clear sign that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Genes, gene products, a...
