Physics is a field of science focused on the fundamental molecules and their motion and behavior through space and time. Biology is a separate, yet related, field of science that revolves around living organisms. Collaborations between physical and biological sciences are important for advances in drug development and clinical practice.
The current gold standard for COVID-19 diagnosis is based on the detection of SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid using real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR). Recent studies suggest limitations of RT-qPC...
The basic units of biological structure and function are cells, which exhibit wide variation in regard to both type and state. We assess such variation by simultaneously profiling the transc...
Crime scene investigation is more than just processing or documentation of crime scenes, nor is it just the collection or packaging of physical evidence. It is the first step and the most cr...
The toxicology of particulate matter is complicated by characteristics not normally encountered when addressing poisonings associated with chemical substances. Particle shape, surface reacti...
Learning Objectives: 1. Molecular basis of microhaplotypes 2. Informativeness and power of discrimination of microhaplotypes 3. Mixture deconvolution via microhaplotypes...

Learning is often an emotional process. Emotional stimuli with different valences, such as threat and reward, can transform an otherwise neutral sensory input into one that can trigger disti...
Episodic memories are essential for human cognition, but the underlying neural mechanisms remain poorly understood. We utilize the opportunity to record in-vivo from human single neurons sim...
Mechanistic understanding of neural systems is daunting to achieve in large part due to the heterogeneity of the neuronal elements in both form and function and the complexity of the circuit...
Brain machine interfaces (BMIs) aim to help patients with paralysis to use their recorded brain activity to control assistive devices. BMI research requires the collaboration of neuroscienti...
The neural basis of simple rhythmic and reflexive behaviors such as swimming and gill withdrawal have been successfully studied in nudibranchs and other gastropod molluscs because the brains...
Although neuroscience has provided a great deal of information about how neurons work, the fundamental question of how neurons function together in a network to produce cognition has been di...
The US Brain Research through Advancing Innovative Neurotechnologies is a research program focused on building fundamental knowledge of how brain circuits process information to enable human...
Brain function is remarkably reliable despite the imprecise performance of neurons, and the continuous perturbations caused by aging, disease or injury. How does the brain succeed in produci...
Autosomal dominant missense mutations that hyperactivate the LRRK2 protein kinase are a common cause of inherited Parkinson’s disease and therapeutic efficacy of LRRK2 inhibitors is be...
The locomotion of humans and other animals requires a seamless flow of information from sensory modalities all the way to the motor periphery. As such, locomotion is an excellent system for...
We present here a framework to generate a realistic multiscale circuit model of the larval zebrafish brain – the multiscale virtual fish (MVF). The model will be based on algorithms in...
