Norovirus is a highly contagious virus and stands as the primary cause of acute gastroenteritis leading to vomiting and diarrhea across all age groups in the United States. Outbreaks of noro...
Programmable genome integration of large, diverse DNA cargo without DNA repair of exposed DNA double-strand breaks remains an unsolved challenge in genome editing. We present programmable ad...
Human respiratory syncytial virus (hRSV) is a significant cause of lower respiratory tract infections in children under the age of 5, the elderly, and immunocompromised individuals, leading...
CRISPR has emerged as a promising alternative to viral-based gene editing by allowing scientists to modify genes with unprecedented ease and flexibility. The discovery and development of a d...
Tandem repeats are hard to assess but important regions on the human genome. There are around 200 pathogenic and phenotypic tandem repeats, which are often ignored by standard analysis. Furt...
Oligonucleotide therapeutics have emerged as a promising novel class of drugs to treat a wide range of diseases. The development of these therapeutics relies on the proper use of chemical bu...
Comprehending the mechanism behind human diseases with an established heritable component represents the forefront of personalized medicine. Nevertheless, numerous medically important genes...
Genomics, epigenomics and transcriptomics are often thought of as independent fields, but in our clinical practice we use them combined to increase diagnostic yield both for constitutional a...
This talk will explore the integration of genomics with electronic health records (EHRs) in biobanks, emphasizing its potential to enhance women's health research. We'll delve into h...
Research and medical genomics require comprehensive and scalable solutions to drive the discovery of novel disease targets, evolutionary drivers, and genetic markers with clinical significan...
RNA is dynamic and essential to biological functions. Metatransrciptome captures gene expression (RNAs) of all active microbes in an environment. We care not just 'who is there', but...
The Myhrvold lab develops CRISPR-based technologies for studying RNA. Our primary interest is RNAs involved in host-pathogen interactions. We use a variety of RNA viruses and other pathogens...
Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) have each gained attention as promising liquid biopsy markers, offering molecular insights into cancer progression, overall s...
The development of acid degradable linkers that rapidly hydrolyze at endosomal pHs is a central problem in the field of drug delivery. Acid degradable linkages are challenging to develop bec...
While hundreds of different lipids have been identified in human blood, many of them remain functionally uncharacterized, including a class of lipids called long-chain acylcarnitines (LCACs)...
This talk will provide an overview of our work in the design of self-assembled, functionalised peptide and protein nanoparticles, hydrogels and bio-interfaces for applications in healthcare....
Interpreting genomic test results for cancer care remains a significant challenge, with variability in turnaround times, reporting standards, and clinical utility impacting patient outcomes....
