NGS technology has grown leaps and bounds in reproductive genetics field. Infertility is on the rise and with the mushrooming of so many IVF clinics in our country and increasing number of I...
The structure of N-linked glycans can play a critical role in the pharmacology of therapeutic proteins, potentially affecting immunogenicity, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. This make...
Adoptive cell therapy (ACT) is an immunotherapy that employs living immune cells to target and destroy cancer cells. However, the inhibitory tumor microenvironment features several obstacles...
Protein production is a multi-billion dollar industry, with applications in pharmaceuticals, industrial enzyme use (eg in laundry detergent), and biomaterials. Bacteria are receiving renewed...
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...
Microtubule plus-end tracking proteins (+TIPs) play key roles in the regulation of microtubule dynamics in vivo. These proteins bind to and regulate microtubule “plus‐ends”, whic...
The Irvine CubeSat STEM Program (ICSP) is a collaboration between Irvine Public Schools Foundation, and Irvine and Tustin Unified school districts that provides teams of students from all si...
Rapid screening and speed of scale-up in protein therapeutics are critical factors in today’s biotech and pharma workflows. The ability to swiftly develop novel therapies often depends...
Though AsCas12a fills a crucial gap in the current genome editing toolbox, it exhibits relatively poor editing efficiency, restricting its overall utility. In collaboration with Integrated D...
Design and interpretation of genome sequencing assays and data in both clinical diagnostics and research labs is complicated by an inability to identify information from the medical literatu...
Unique physical, chemical, and optical phenomena arise when materials are confined to the nanoscale. We are accustomed to making observations for the behavior of living systems on a macrosco...
Stem cells respond to both physical and biochemical changes in their stem cell niche. An ideal scaffold for tissue engineering application should mimic the microenvironment for natural tissu...
Autism spectrum disorder is a group of neurodevelopmental conditions that impact behavior, communication, social interaction, and learning abilities. There has been great interest in using m...
In recent years in vivo CNS dosing has gone from being a relatively uncommon modality to one that is fairly standard. However, bringing this administration route into maturity requires an un...
Jeff Borgia, Ph.D. is the Director of the Rush Cancer Center Biorepository, where he oversees the collection and annotation of patient specimens in support of ongoing translational research...
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....
Immunohistochemistry (IHC) has been an indispensable tool for daily pathology practice. Multiplex designs have further facilitated its utility with improved efficacy. Several techniques of m...
Myeloid neoplasms are a group of heterogeneus disorders originating from the neoplastic transformation of a pluripotent hematopoietic progenitor cell. Following the acquisition of somatic mu...
Coronavirus research cannot wait. As we know researchers around the world are diligently working to gain a better understanding of the novel coronavirus with the goal of rapidly identifying...
High volume clinical MS proteomic evaluation of plasma samples enriched for exosomes offering a real-time and non-invasive perspective of changing maternal and fetal tissues....
Mass spectrometry-based proteomics is a powerful technique for the analyses of thousands of proteins, fueling biomarker research and drug discovery. With the rich complex data from each prec...
Measuring the shear rheology for highly temperature sensitive materials is challenging. Material characterization tools are slow compared to industrial processing. Using numerical simulation...
The regions of our genome responsible for encoding the genes that regulate our immune response are some of the most complex and polymorphic known. This complexity encompasses multiple types...
