In 2013, a separate diagnosis of PTSD was introduced into the DSM-V to mitigate the well-known issue of accurately differentiating between PSTD and other psychiatric disorders. In addition t...
Accurate classification of genetic alterations is important to ensure the provision of high-quality clinical data. For interpretation of germline alterations, there are standardized guidelin...
In this study, we evaluated the concordance of targeted sequencing results between paired ctDNA and tumor samples from early breast cancers scheduled for curative surgery with or without adj...
Acral lentiginous melanoma (ALM) is a rare sun-shielded melanoma subtype associated with worse survival than cutaneous melanoma (CM), a more common form of skin cancer linked to exposure to u...
More than half of the states around the country have legalized marijuana laws that permit individuals to use marijuana for medical or recreational purposes. However, the possession and...
Anchored Protein Kinase-A (PKA) bound to A-Kinase Anchoring Protein (AKAP) mediates the effects of localized increases in cAMP in defined subcellular microdomains and retains the specificity...
Whole genome and exome sequencing is being widely used to identify disease-causing variants in patients with hereditary and rare diseases. Discovering the true disease-causing variants often...
CRISPR-Cas9 based gene editing is a powerful tool which can induce heritable mutations at desired genomic loci without leaving transgenic trace in plants. Here we constructed a robust, multip...
We have developed 3D-shaped hydrogel microparticle platforms to capture cells, as well as isolate and label their secretions. These “lab on a particle” systems enable sorting cel...
The arrangement of chromatin inside the nucleus has long been recognized as a key element in genomic stability and an active participant in transcriptional control. With the development and d...
There is robust evidence supporting strong association with CYP450 (Phase 1) enzymes and influence on drug levels (affecting response & side effects in many cases) with many psychotropic...
While transformative, first-generation CRISPR technologies remain limited across multiple important dimensions including scalability, editing efficiency, types of modifications available, an...
Like any other agricultural crop, pesticides are applied to hemp plants to protect it from pests and improve growth yield. Chronic exposure to pesticides can lead to serious health risks and...
Development of novel types of therapeutics require adaptation of traditional bioprocessing applications to include the use of primary cells, such as stem cells, fibroblasts, astrocytes and ne...
Robotic partial nephrectomy (RPN) has increasingly been applied to the treatment of small renal masses. Because of space limitations and the size of the robot at the patient side, the standa...
Access to and experiences with healthcare continue to be inequitable worldwide even at the level of clinical laboratory testing. From building and sustaining a thriving, diverse workforce to...
Individuals of under-represented minority ancestry are at disproportional risk for higher incidence and mortality rates for particular cancers. The unequal burden of cancer in certain racial...
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), is the measurement institute of the U.S., supplying unbiased expertise in measurements and standards to support growth in all sector...
Dr. Tony Hu’s research focuses on developing and validating integrated nanotechnique-based strategies for marker discovery and molecular diagnostics in peripheral blood samples to provi...
Often we are concerned at the thought of a lab run by robots, not humans-- but what if instead of having the world's brightest minds concerned with pipetting, blotting and scanning, there...
Lyme disease is a common tick-transmitted infection caused by spirochetes in the Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato complex. Borrelia burgdorferi is the primary cause of Lyme disease in the Unit...
The cancer drug discovery landscape is shifting. While research continues to grow in cost and complexity, the pace of development has never been faster. Biopharmaceutical companies can&rsquo...
Key to the development of the HUB Organoid Technology was the discovery of LGR5+ intestinal adult stem cells by the Clevers’ lab. With the identification of these stem cells, we were a...
There has been an increasing number of successful gene therapy clinical trials, leading to regulatory approvals of numerous gene therapy products, in particular ones based on the adeno-assoc...
Rates of mental health disorders have risen globally in the past two years. The term "mental health crisis" has been widely used and a sense of urgency has been present in health c...
Release of the first human genome assembly was a landmark achievement, and after nearly two decades of improvements, the current human reference genome (GRCh38) is the most accurate and compl...
