Tissue diagnostics is a broad term to describe laboratory testing done on biological tissues. Tissue diagnostics can be used to diagnosis diseases, monitor disease progression, or manage treatment.
Understanding disease at a deeper level so that it can be targeted more precisely is the essence of precision medicine. Rapid technological advance, particularly in genomics and sensor-based...
A number of recently publications have heralded the advent of Precision Medicine in Oncology, where next generation sequencing technology, other ’omics technologies, serial biopsies, so...
In December 2012 the UK Prime Minister announced the 100,000 genomes project to introduce whole genome sequencing for treatment into the UK National Health Service (NHS) o...
Personalised Healthcare is essential to AstraZeneca’s approach to drug development and is adopted by more than 80% of drug products in clinical development. Selection of the right patie...
A number of elements come into the mix when trying to optimise experimental design. Among these are having clear objectives, setting up valid comparisons, knowing how to avoid bias during the...

Targeted nanoparticle applications have become a major focus of translational development of both diagnostics and therapeutics for clini...
Cancer immunotherapy has demonstrated promising results. However, to date, researchers have failed to overcome the complex interplay between the immune system and the immune suppressive tumor...
Biofilm is an ancient and preferred mode of growth for microbes with 99% of all microbes residing in a biofilm. Biofilm is characterized by a community of microbes (usually polymicrobial ofte...
Matching the mutational profile of a patient's tumor with appropriate targeted agents is a goal of personalized medicine in oncology. The number of FDA-approved targeted therapies, as well as...
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are increasingly recognized as having key regulatory roles in development and disease. However, these regulatory molecules often have short half lives and are ex...
Survival rates for early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remain unacceptably low compared to other common solid tumors. This mortality reflects a weakness in conventional staging, as...
Over the last decade we have witnessed tremendous advances in our understanding of the underlying molecular alterations in human cancer. This has stimulated excitement for our ability to deve...
The effective implementation of personalised cancer therapeutic regimens depends on the successful identification and translation of informative biomarkers to aid clinical decision-making. An...
Obesity is a disease. It was once not considered to be a disease and to be a matter of will power and gluttony. It was also the case that we once thought that fat tissue had no metabolic func...
The Willerth lab investigates how to engineer neural tissue by combining pluripotent stem cells, controlled drug delivery and biomaterial scaffolds. When generating these replacement tissues,...
Synaptic dysfunction and loss caused by age-dependent accumulation of synaptotoxic Amyloid beta (Abeta)1-42 oligomers is proposed to underlie cognitive decline in Alzheimers disease (AD). Syn...
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease that leads to widespread pathology within the central nervous system (CNS) and is the most common cause of neurologic disability among young a...
All trainers are people but not all people are trainers. Several factors beyond the trainer influence the effectiveness of a safety training programs. This program will discuss the critical...
Biofilms, are defined as communities of microorganisms that grow embedded in a self-generated matrix of exopolysaccharides and adhered to an inert surface or a live tissue. They are formed 95...
The question of pain in fish has been subject to much debate and, since fish are a popular experimental model globally and commercially important in fisheries, recreational angling and aquac...
Curative therapy for metastatic disease in solid malignancies remains frustratingly elusive due to the long recognized problem of tumor cell heterogeneity and emergence of treatment resistant...
Cancer metastases develop when tumor cells known as circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are shed from a tumor, circulate through the blood stream and colonize a distant tissue. The number of CTCs...
Cancer cells have historically been classified by microscopic analysis of blood smears and tissue sections. Current technologies use molecular techniques to categorize and classify tumor cell...
