The integration of scientific instruments and robotics is often a barrier for physical scientists developing new autonomous discovery capabilities. At Argonne National Laboratory, the Rapid...
LED illumination has become more prominent in microscopy for both fluorescence and transmitted applications over the past few years. Today, LEDs provide many benefits over mercury and metal...
HIV drug resistance (HIVDR) can emerge with use of antiretroviral (ARV) drugs for HIV treatment and prevention. The increasing prevalence of drug-resistant HIV strains poses a serious threat...
In the slowly evolving landscape of bioprocess development and manufacturing, digital bioprocess-twins have emerged as potential accelerators. While advanced algorithms are at the heart of t...
Ensuring that clinical tests are not affected by tumor heterogeneity requires a sampling methodology that captures the genomic, proteomic, and cellular diversity of entire solid tumors. Howe...
Disability activists have sometimes claimed their disability has actually increased their well-being. Some even say they would reject a cure to keep these gains. Yet, these same activists of...
Thermo Fisher Scientific have spearheaded the development and democratization of next-generation sequencing, a technology that has fueled research in precision oncology and will play a key p...
We have harnessed homologous recombination to modify the genome of human stem cells with high frequencies (>40%). By designing the recombination donor in different ways, we can achieve a...
Cytokine storm is suspected of producing the overzealous immune response driving the severe cardiopulmonary complications that fuel high morbidity and mortality rates in certain COVID-19 inf...
Effective cellular therapies for solid tumors remain elusive. Advances in gene editing and synthetic biology offer great potential for improving the safety and functionality of engineered ce...
Altered enteric microorganisms in concert with host genetics shape inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) phenotypes. However, insight is limited to bacteria and fungi. We found that eukaryotic vi...
