Research and Development: innovative activities performed by corporations or governments for the creation, discovery and advancement of services and products.
DATE: May 7, 2020 TIME: 7:00am PT As cost of sequencing continues to drop, the throughput and complexity of NGS assays have risen precipitously. At the same time, the types of samples being...
The forensic investigation of crime involves answering four basic questions: who, what, where, and when. Tools exist to answer questions of who, what and where, but the question when is ofte...
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...
In late 2019, nearly a decade into a life sentence, Lydell Grant was released from a Texas prison after being convicted of a murder that he did not commit. The victim, Aaron Scheerhorn, was...
The current standard methodology in forensic DNA typing relies on amplification of short tandem repeat (STR) markers by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and allele sizes (i.e., length-bas...
The potential for cognitive bias in forensic evidence interpretation and crime scene investigation continues to receive attention and debate within forensic and academic communities. Startin...
Hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine are long-standing antimalarial drugs recently brought into the spotlight as potential treatments for the pandemic-causing coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2). Notable...
The ever-increasing number of deaths along the U.S.-México border and the diversification in the demographic characteristics of the Latin American migrants, who perish in this region,...
The necrobiome is the community of organisms that use or are affected by decomposing organic matter. Decomposing organic matter comes in the form of dead plant matter (biomass) or that of de...

Date: April 29, 2020 Time: 8:00AM PDT, 11:00AM EDT Single cell genomics and other next generation sequencing applications depend strongly on adequate upstream sample preparation. Results can...
In the event of a radiological or nuclear disaster, there will be a need for therapies that can mitigate the acute hematopoietic and gastrointestinal (GI) radiation syndromes expected to dev...
In order to emit less contaminants into the environment, and at the same time produce healthier foods that are free of those contaminants, all production systems should be investigated, i.e....
Background and aim: Worldwide malaria cases have declined. However, despite recent advances, resistance to front line drugs and insecticides means the burden remains high (219 million cases...
Background and aim: Rapid and complex diagnosis of viral, bacterial and parasitic infections is highly desirable not only in clinical practice, but also in food safety or early warning syste...
Histone post-translational modifications (PTMs) play pivotal roles in chromatin dynamics and function, with alterations in the healthy profile associated with diverse human pathologies. The...
Background and aim: Multiplexing of biomarker panels by microsphere-based technologies are robust and cost-effective methods. The QuantiGene™ Plex Assay (ThermoFisher Scientific) platf...
Translational medicine has been fairly unsuccessful in translating innovation from the lab towards the clinics and back again. Many reasons account for the failure leading to a massive waste...
