MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small RNAs with an average size of 22 nucleotides that regulate gene expression through various mechanisms. During the last decade, researchers have identified over 26...
Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) uses a stand-displacing DNA polymerase and four to six primers to rapidly amplify DNA at a single temperature. By eliminating temperature cyclin...
Smartphone-based optical imaging and sensing devices are among the next-generation biosensors that have shown great potential to transform the field of point-of-care (POC) diagnostics....
Accurate prediction of anticancer drug efficacy on each patient’s cancer before the initiation of therapy has the potential to significantly reduce the treatment burden and enhance cli...
With the health economic benefits of genetic testing clear, testing is becoming more accessible, which means constantly increasing throughput requirements for already stretched genomics......
Traditional methods for pathogen detection are often expensive and time-consuming and requires a well-equipped laboratory. Here we present a low-cost, deployable paper-based biosensor device...
The Genomes2People Research Program (G2P), led by Robert Green at Brigham and Women’s Hospital, the Broad Institute, Ariadne Labs, and Harvard Medical School, conducts research to acce...
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...
CRISPR-based diagnostics offer rapid and highly sensitive detection of disease biomarkers. Their ease of use and compatibility with lateral-flow readouts make them suitable for point-of-care...
mRNA technologies have rapidly evolved into one of the most exciting and versatile classes of modern medicines, powering breakthroughs in vaccines and emerging therapies for metabolic, cardi...
It has been publicly stated by the CDC that one in 5 Americans had an STI in 2018 and costs our healthcare system roughly $16 billion in direct medical costs. Routine sexually transmitted inf...
Nucleic acid agarose gel electrophoresis is a fundamental technique in molecular biology, boasting a rich history of advancements and innovations spanning over half a century. This technique...
Silk is essential to the life histories of more than 800,000 species across the arthropod tree of life. Humans have harnessed the ability of a handful of these for use in the sericulture ind...
The COVID-19 pandemic highlights the need for diagnostics that can be rapidly adapted and deployed in a variety of settings. Several SARS-CoV-2 variants have shown worrisome effects on vacci...
This is a technical talk. Its objective is to provide details of virus sequencing, using SARS-CoV-2 as an example. Knowing the details, strengths, and limitations of virus sequencing will en...
Tuberculosis (TB), caused by the pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) remains one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. This presentation will summarise the epidem...
Learning Objectives: 1. Discover how Genetics is not the major determinant of chronic diseases and cancers; human microbiome and nutrition heavily contribute to their onset and progression....
