Each year, more monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are approved by regulatory agencies to treat a wide range of diseases with an expected market value of over $200 billion by 2026. The advantage o...
Since late 2020, several prominent SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern have emerged, harboring specific mutations which increase viral transmissibility Delta variant) and which appear to reduce t...
Bio-Techne is proud to provide a first glimpse into the power and performance of the Leo™ System using several assay models as it hits the market. Data highlights include throughput, s...
Human solid tumors, like breast cancers, represent a heterogeneous group of diseases that is best demonstrated through many differences in clinical outcomes within homogenously treated patie...
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a computer program designed to perform operations typical of human intelligence, such as self-learning. AI is taking over different fields in science; we alre...
The identification of novel drug targets and the development of next generation therapeutic strategies remain elusive goals for cancer researchers. We believe that the aberrant molecular eve...
My laboratory at the Garvan Institute operates an ISO 15189 and NATA accredited laboratory for testing of patients using whole genome and whole exome sequencing, as well as gene panel testin...
To prevent and treat SARS-CoV-2 infections, a comprehensive understanding of both the humoral and cellular immune responses is essential. One critical component to understanding the fundamen...
Approximately 13% of the human genome at certain motifs have the potential to form non-canonical (non-B) DNA structures (e.g. G-quadruplexes, cruciforms, and Z-DNA), which regulate......
Synthetic adeno-associated virus (AAV) biology is an emerging interdisciplinary field that involves the re-design of all AAV components, including capsids, packaged genomes, and starting mat...
Prokaryotic DNA contains three types of methylation: N6-methyladenine, N4-methylcytosine and 5-methylcytosine. The lack of tools to analyse the frequency and distribution of methylated resid...
Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) is an important technology that reveals gene expression differences between different cell types. Yet scRNA-seq data can be challenging to analyze and...
Coordination of immune cell metabolic programs with cell fate and state is a fundamental determinant of immune responses. Emerging evidence highlights that the interplay between immune signa...
The Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD) is a one-of-a-kind resource containing data for hundreds of thousands of variants within the context of associated phenotype(s). Specifically, HGMD pr...
Microbes are recently recognized as driving the energy and nutrient transformations that fuel Earth’s ecosystems in soils, oceans and humans. Where studied, viruses appear to modulate...
In this webinar, Dr. Luke O'Neill will discuss an overview of immunology and immunometabolism in infectious disease. The past 10 years or so has seen a major resurgence of interest in im...
Copy number variant (CNV) analysis has been part of clinical diagnostics for almost two decades. With the evolution of genomic technologies for CNV detection, we have learned that CNVs can r...
In this session we will use a set of reads enriched for viral sequences and sequences from wastewater treatment plants. Specifically the aim is to assemble whole SARS-CoV-2 genomes from such...
