A network is defined as the connection of at least two computer systems, either by a cable or a wireless connection. The simplest network is a combination of two computers connected by a cable.
Learning Objectives: 1. Delineate the goals of studies of brain, computation and behavior and how they can be integrated. 2. Describe how neuromodulators such as oxytocin transform circuits...

Pharmacogenomics has had rapid implementation over the past decade, with recent growth in application in oncology, mental health, solid organ transplantation, and more. There has been much f...
Phenoconversion is a mismatch between an individual’s genotype-based prediction of a drug metabolism and its true capacity. In other words, there is a mismatch between the clinically o...
Since late 2020, several prominent SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern have emerged harboring specific mutations which increase viral transmissibility (e.g., lineage B.1.1.7), and which appear to...
The recent explosion in the sample sizes and diversity of omics assays has created exciting new opportunities for biomedical scientists. However, connecting these omics data types in an inte...

Nanopore sequencing has enormous potential in epigenetic applications; unlike traditional sequencing-by-synthesis technologies, it can distinguish covalently modified nucleotides directly th...
In mammals, DNA methylation is an epigenetic mark that regulates gene expression by serving as a maintainable mark whose absence marks promoters and enhancers. Recent epidemiological studies...
Cell encapsulation within semi-permeable devices represents a local immunoisolation strategy for cell-based therapies without the need for systemic immunosuppression. The encapsulation syste...
