Research and Development: innovative activities performed by corporations or governments for the creation, discovery and advancement of services and products.
Many experimental approaches rely on controlling gene expression in select subsets of cells within an individual animal. However, reproducibly targeting transgene expression to specific frac...
One of the most common pathologically relevant mutated variants of ALK-2 (activin receptor-like kinase-2) has a point mutation (R206H) in its Ser/Thr kinase domain that promotes uncontrolled...
DATE: August 6th, 2020 TIME: 10:00am PT In recent years Lilly has implemented a Next Generation Research (NGR) initiative to improve the value output of the R&D portfolio. One of the NGR...
Current cancer management follows a multipronged approach that include surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. There is a pressing need for a platform technology to provide precision chemother...
Recent advances in super-resolution fluorescence microscopy based on single-molecule imaging have led to ~10 nm spatial resolution and exciting science. We are developing new approaches to a...
Despite the increasing number of effective anti-cancer therapies, successful treatment is limited by the development of drug resistance. While the contribution of genetic factors to drug res...
In photosynthesis, solar energy capture to conversion occurs with a remarkable near-unity quantum efficiency through energy transport across a network of chromophore-containing proteins. The...
Unique physical, chemical, and optical phenomena arise when materials are confined to the nanoscale. We are accustomed to making observations for the behavior of living systems on a macrosco...
Infrared spectroscopy and microscopy directly couples to molecular functional groups, providing chemical information without extrinsic labels. However, conventional infrared spectroscopy and...
Protein structural disorder helps avoid misfolding and aggregation, but in impeding protein folding might also impede function. The balance between these two selective pressures on protein b...
Auxin is a hormone crucial in nearly every aspect of plant growth and development. Advancing our understanding of auxin signaling in maize and other crop plants may provide needed tools for...
Carbon dioxide emissions, known to exacerbate climate change, have been increasing rapidly over the past century. One strategy to alleviate this issue is carbon capture and utilization (CCU)...
Many experimental approaches rely on controlling gene expression in select subsets of cells within an individual animal. However, reproducibly targeting transgene expression to specific frac...
Effective locomotion in nature happens by transitioning between multiple modes (e.g., walk, run, climb, slither). Despite this, far more mechanistic understanding of terrestrial locomotion h...
Our work focuses on developing an optical brain-machine interface capable of interacting with neural activity in real-time. In this talk, I will describe our progress toward building the com...
Over the last decade the cancer research field has seen a number of advances aimed at increasing the efficacy of treatments, reducing toxic side effects, and decreasing attrition rates of dr...
The cytolytic activity of Immune cells toward cancer cells is finely regulated through several pathways and receptors. Although end point assays have been routinely used to measure cell kill...
B7-H3 is actively being explored as an immunotherapy target for pediatric patients with solid tumors using monoclonal antibodies or T cells expressing chimeric antigen receptors (CARs). B7-H...
The identification of novel drug targets and the development of next generation therapeutic strategies remain elusive goals for cancer researchers. We believe that the aberrant molecular eve...

Background: Acute liver injury (ALI) is characterised by hepatocyte death and liver inflammation. Macrophages play a pivotal role in ALI by phagocytosing dead cells and producing pro-regener...
Three dimensional (3D) spheroidal cell models have become a mainstay in life science research to provide the most in vivo-like environment. Performing media exchanges and washes with unattac...
Metastasis is the main cause of death in cancer patients and one of the most complex biological processes in human diseases (Hanahan et al., 2011). The development of therapies designed to f...
The use of three‐dimensional (3D) culture models is rapidly expanding due to their recognition as representing more structurally and physiologically relevant models of in vivo biology. 3D ce...
