Learning Objectives: 1. Describe alternative (non-B) DNA structures, how prevalent are they and what are their biological implications? 2. Explain why non-B DNA structures might be relevant...
SARS-CoV-2 testing is now facing increasing challenges in the face of an ongoing pandemic with the emergence of new variants and waning vaccine immunity. Increasing evidence supports the cor...
Up until now, Big Data in healthcare has failed to drive any real progress in curing disease. However, we have just now reached a cost and throughput threshold in sequencing and bioinformati...
Many users in the area of sample storage work with the familiar cryotubes in 81 or 100 format. As a rule, the existing volume of the tubes is not used optimally. This circumstance leads to a...
Discuss how there are various ways to collect cells for cell therapy and then go into how our blood collection items can be a part of that solution....
Advances in cancer research have improved our understanding of the complex interactions between tumors, their microenvironment and the host immune response. The evolving research field of im...
There have been an increasing number of successful human gene therapy clinical trials, and in particular gene delivery vehicles or vectors based on the adeno-associated virus (AAV) have enabl...
Optimizing a routine LC/MS workflow can greatly improve laboratory efficiency and time to results. Often, a considerable burden to improving LC/MS productivity is the time and cost associate...
Recent advances in genomic technologies have revealed enormous complexities and uniqueness of human physiology. Although enormous efforts are being made to apply this knowledge to enhance the...
Cases of traumatic brain injury (TBI) have been steadily rising over the past decade with most common causes of injury observed among participants in contact sports, combat military personne...
Somatic mutations that arise during development are increasingly recognized as contributors to neurodevelopmental disease. One challenge has been to determine how mosaic mutations contribute...
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for more deaths than colon, breast, and prostate cancers combined. Of patients with NSCLC, 20% initially present with stage I or II disease, for w...
This session provides an overview of how the applications for infectious disease and microbiology on the MISeq i100 Series can support genomic surveillance for managing disease outbreaks, co...
The RNAscope in situ hybridization technology allows high sensitivity, specificity and spatial resolution providing pivotal single-cell gene expression information to gain better insights in...
Aroma is an important sensory factor in the perception of food. But what exactly makes a food smell pungent, or savory, or foul? The chemistry of aroma, or smell, can be very complex. There...
The human genome encodes 25,000 genes. But the biological complexity inherent in polygenic traits is a clear sign that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Genes, gene products, a...
Virtually all tumors are genetically heterogeneous, containing subclonal populations of cells that are defined by distinct mutations. Subclones can have unique phenotypes that influence disea...
B cells have recently come into vogue as important contributors to the anti-tumor immune response in cancer patients. Specifically, B cells and the immune structures in which they reside (te...
Stimulants are the drivers of the fourth wave of the US drug overdose epidemic. Although most national attention and resources have been targeted at combating opioid use due to the surge of...
A biobank is a laboratory facility that accepts, processes, stores, and distributes samples and data, for use by research institutions. The role is to store these collections and to keep bio...
Dr. Christopher E. Mason Professor of Genomics, Physiology, and Biophysics at Weill Cornell Medicine and the Director of the WorldQuant Initiative for Quantitative Prediction Digital PCR for...
The rapid growth of technologies capable of comprehensively collecting, managing, and allowing us to gain an in-depth picture of the brain, nervous system, and behavior across diverse spatia...
This talk will explore HILIC chromatography methods for the analysis of released N-glycans labeled with InstantPC or 2-AB dyes. Best practices for robust methods will be introduced. Method d...
Platinum-based chemotherapy has been the cornerstone for treating metastatic urothelial cancer, which compromises the majority of bladder cancer. While urothelial cancer is chemosensitive, p...
Over the last two decades, DNA synthesis has established itself as a standard tool propelling life science research in a wide range of fields. In this session, we will highlight how DNA synt...
