Our webinars allow users to learn from experts and earn continuing education credits on industry topics, progress in research, services available, and more.
This workshop will focus on the emerging variants and the diagnostic and surveillance strategies (genotyping assays complementing sequencing) for this, as well as the impending COVID-Flu int...
Genomic research has long been skewed toward European populations, leading to significant underrepresentation of Non-European groups in both research studies and genomic databases. This bias...
Cannabis & Hemp pesticide and mycotoxin testing is difficult and time-consuming for a compliance testing laboratory. With dedicated fully automated cannabis & hemp flower workflows d...
The gut microbiota has been proposed to affect the risk and prognosis of various health outcomes. Related to pregnancy, existing studies suggest that pregnant women have a distinct microbiot...
Summary: Cancer neoantigens are highly specific to the tumor, potently immunogenic and can be targeted by both vaccines and engineered cellular therapies. This talk will introduce the defini...
The Whiteson lab uses culture-independent metagenomics, metabolomics, and ecological statistics along with hypothesis driven, reductionist microbiology to answer questions about how bacteria...
Incorporation of the TSA Technology available from Ventana’s AmpHQ kit allows for improved signal and reduced background in IHC staining at NovoVita Histopath Laboratory. This presenta...
The global pandemic has increased focus and scrutiny on molecular diagnostic assay development, resulting in a need for assays that provide quick results while delivering expected performanc...
For centuries, humans have become infected with endemic circulating Coronaviruses (hCoV), typically repeatedly throughout life. To understand how these respiratory infections establish CD4 T...
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are lipid-bilayer enclosed nano-sized vesicles that are released by all cell types and found in all bodily fluids. EVs are emerging as important regulators of bo...
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is characterized clinically by poor survival and mechanistically by KRAS- and autophagy-dependent growth. We and others previously demonstrated that i...
ISO 17025 accreditation ensures laboratories provide high-quality testing services. However, the path to achieving compliance could be riddled with challenges for new and established labs al...
Hop latent viroid (HLVd) infection lowers the commercial value of cannabis by reducing flower harvest weight, THC concentration, and terpene production. Unlike other microbial contaminants i...
Strong performance for a Facility of the Future for the Life Sciences industry requires more than optimal manufacturing process development and facility design. The sector encompasses a dive...
Given the onset of extensive school closures, we are facing widespread scenarios of stunted learning, social isolation, and most troubling, an unprecedented surge in student suicides, all wh...
T cells exquisitely discriminate between antigenic and self-peptide ligands presented on major histocompatibility complexes (pMHCs) despite subtle differences in affinities. This aspect of a...
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...
One of the central tenants of biology is that our genetics—our genotype—influences the physical characteristics we manifest—our phenotype. But with more than 25,000 human g...
With the health economic benefits of genetic testing clear, testing is becoming more accessible, which means constantly increasing throughput requirements for already stretched genomics......
In the United States, cancer disproportionately impacts Black and African American individuals. Identifying genetic factors underlying cancer disparities has been an important research focus...
The need for high-throughput laboratory testing to identify SARS-CoV-2 infected individuals has reached nearly unprecedented levels. This demand has also led to supply chain issues that have...
Gene therapy for two forms of inherited retinal degeneration have met promising safety and efficacy endpoints in early stage clinical trials. These approaches made use of a replication defect...
Comprehensive genomic profiling in clinical research studies helps to detect clinically relevant cancer driver mutations using low amount of tumor tissues within several days. Recent studies...
