Super-resolution microscopy, or nanoscopy, enables the use of fluorescent-based molecular localization tools to study molecular structure at the nanoscale level in the intact cell. Analysis...
Learning Objectives: 1. Discuss the conceptual limitations of the term, "population" as applied to human genomics. 2. Explain the main difference(s) between "race", "...
Nucleic acid analysis is crucial for the diagnostics of infectious diseases such as COVID-19. CRISPR/Cas technology, beyond its broad application in gene editing, features, in this regard, a...
Current methods to treat malignant brain tumors are highly intrusive, leading to poor quality of life with abysmal patient survival rates. Combined with radiation therapy, first/second-line...
Radiation therapy is an important cornerstone of oncologic therapy but is feared to the point of intimidation by too many patients. Yet by the end of treatment, most patients find the experi...
Though tumor targeting using chimeric receptors (CAR) engineered to bind tumor-associated surface proteins such as CD19 in B cells have demonstrated remarkable efficacy in cancer, this thera...
Long-read sequencing was declared the method of the year for 2022 and, indeed, has fully arrived on the computational biology scene. Specifically, Oxford Nanopore Sequencing technology has e...
Saliva serves as a reservoir for the upper aerodigestive tract (UADT). Saliva collection is non-invasive, convenient, and amenable to self-collection. Thus, saliva is an ideal resource for l...
Background: CDK4/6 inhibitors increase tumor immunogenicity in preclinical models of breast cancer and several trials combining CDK4/6 inhibitors and anti-PD1/PDL1 therapies are underway. Ho...
Genomics has had rapid implementation over the past decade, with recent growth in application in oncology, mental health, maternal fetal medicine, solid organ transplantation, and more. Much...
There is growing pressure to implement new generation sequencing platform in hospital emergency rooms. The utility would be obvious: identifying unknown pathogens form cerebrospinal fluid/pl...

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 inner nuclear membrane of eukaryotic cells defines many aspects of gene expression and chromatin organization. It is also therapeutically important as several diseases, termed “lam...
Cells in their natural environment are surrounded by a complex extracellular matrix that provides structure and functional cues to the surrounding cells. Hydrogels can be used to approximate...
Intestinal epithelial cells lining the surface of our gastro-intestinal tract form a tight monolayer which serves as the primary barrier separating us from the luminal content of the gut. Th...
The COVID-19 pandemic continues to have a devastating effect on the health and well-being of the global population. A critical step in the fight against COVID-19 is effective clinical decisi...
Human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are immortal cell lines that can be derived from skin or blood of any individual. Their unique property of pluripotency means they can be differe...
Human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) remains a significant public health concern, particularly for vulnerable populations such as infants, young children, and immunocompromised individua...
Multi-target screening can offer great insight into the genetic pathways in drug resistance and disease. RNAi and the fast pace of CRISPR technology development has brought sophisticated opt...
Learning Objectives: 1. Describe and discuss some of the unique aspect of in vivo studies. 2. Identify specific study practices to ensure high quality study data and animal welfare. 3. Discu...
Learning Objections: 1. To learn a new approach to understanding brain function by creating networks to perform tasks using machine learning. 2. To learn how how to probe these networks to d...
The use of three‐dimensional (3D) culture models is rapidly expanding due to their recognition as representing more structurally and physiologically relevant models of in vivo biology. 3D ce...
Shantanu will be providing an overview about how predictive genomics is a powerful capability to help predict disease risk and understand drug response in order to improve health outcomes an...
Over the past decade, the availability and feasibility for clinical laboratories of all sizes to implement molecular platforms has grown exponentially. No longer does a laboratory need to be...
In the rapidly evolving landscape of cannabis production and consumption, ensuring the safety and quality of cannabis products is of paramount importance. Microbial contaminants pose potenti...
The Philippine government, thru the Philippine Carabao Center (PCC), has undertaken a genetic improvement program of dairy buffaloes. Selection of semen donor bulls is based on the performan...
