DATE: February 9, 2017TIME: 9:00am PT, 12:00pm ETThe last few years have led to great progress in Chile in terms of laboratory animal care and use. There are new legal mandates to prote...
Nonterminal blood collection from mice is frequently performed in biomedical research. Multiple phlebotomy sites and restraint techniques are available to investigators. Methods that minimiz...
New insights on the pathogenesis of COVID-19 7:00–7:30 pm PDT Presented By: Olaf Rötzschke, PhD The SIgN Mass Cytometry Platform (MCP) was originally established by Evan Newell, P...
To establish productive infection, plant viruses need to be able to efficiently invade and spread within a plant. Most viruses are introduced into a plant via the epidermal or mesophyll cell...
Batten disease or the Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinoses (NCLss) are each the result of inherited mutations that result in lysosomal dysfunction. Some of these disorders are due to deficiencies i...
Thyroid function tests play a central role to assess thyroid function and are valuable companions for clinicians. The evolution of the tests is permanent and clinical laboratories are key pla...
The next step towards more biomimetic in vitro models is the design of multi-organ devices, which allow for communication of different tissue types. Combining physiologically relevant organ m...
Analytical variation, most commonly referred to as - varying lab results - can be both inter-lab as well as intra-lab. Lab results permeate virtually all segments of the industry, from B2B pu...
Over the past few years there has been an increased interest in the role of cannabis for treating medical conditions. Attitude towards cannabis has evolved rapidly with the expanding legaliz...
Single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) emerged to characterize gene expression differences between individual cells, allowing a higher resolution look at mRNA abundance than bulk RNA- seq. H...
Learning Objectives: 1. Introduce the audience to a general overview of bacterial and fungal contamination 2. Identify areas in the growing and manufacturing industries to monitor for bacter...
First discovered as a genome-editing tool just seven years ago, CRISPR systems have already changed the face of basic research, allowing researchers to alter the DNA of hundreds of organisms...
The presentation will describe the principles of the ultra-sensitive single-molecule array (Simoa) developed by Quanterix and the application of the Simoa technology to the development of a t...
The increasing use of prescription and non-medical prescription opioids has created a significant public health crisis. The rising rate of opioid-related deaths across North America has led...
The advent of precision medicine largely depends on the creation of precise and accurate predictive tools. While most late-onset diseases are moderately to highly heritable, using genetic inf...
What motivates patients to participate in clinical trials? Discussions most often revolve around potential study participants’ perception of therapeutic benefit. Misconceptions about th...
Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells are the most widely used cells for producing biopharmaceuticals. Engineering gene expression in CHO is key to improving drug quality and affordability. Howe...
As next generation sequencing has lowered the price of DNA sequencing orders of magnitude below what it cost to create the first consensus human genome, the sheer diversity of human sequence...
Drug development is a costly and time consuming process, poor translation of data from pre-clinical studies to the clinic is a major contributor as late-stage drug failure is very expensive....
Sepsis is the Achilles’ heel of health care. Despite being relatively unknown to the public, it is a top killer in hospitals and the cost burden is crushing to our healthcare system. Mo...
As of March 2021, SARS-CoV-2 has infected 115 million people and caused over 2.56 million deaths. The emergence of mutants associated with changes to transmission of SARS-CoV-2 has shown tha...
In today’s modern laboratory, resources are often stretched as laboratories struggle to manage multiple priorities, meet regulatory requirements, and contain costs. This is especially t...
If you use a pipette on a daily basis, then this webinar is for you. Pipettes are used to prepare samples, blanks, and standards for a range of analytical experiments. This is why the wrong...
Genomic data is vast and increasingly sparse. This problem grows as we sequence more and more patients. Herein, Professor Ennis will describe an algorithmic tool that reduces the sparsity of...
Microphysiological systems (MPS), also known as organ-on-chips, are small scale in vitro cell cultures which mimic facets of tissue or organ level function. MPS frequently utilise primary hu...
The isolation of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) and the discovery of human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) reprogramming have sparked a renaissance in stem cell biology, in vitro di...
Immunotherapy: An unprecedented opportunity-Long-lasting/curative treatments-Lower side effects-Wide applicability-Natural mechanism of action-Locally produced T cell therapies&...
