The regulated cannabis industry has existed in the US for nearly a decade. New medical and adult-use markets will most likely experience similar maturation and periods of volatility as state...
Cultured mammalian cells, particularly Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells are widely used in the biotechnology industry for production of a wide range of therapeutics, predominantly monoclona...
Social interactions are essential for the survival of social animals. Across species the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) has been identified as a hub of social cognition. In mouse models we...
Molecular testing of NCSLC biopsies is extremely important in the care and management of these patients. However, NCSLC biopsies are typically very small and require multiple types of analys...
In recent past respiratory seasons, the world witnessed a “tripledemic” of Influenza (flu), SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19), and Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV). In this presentation, I...
Shifting from or supplementing traditional cultures by offering PCR infectious disease testing can be challenging for a laboratory. The addition of this testing is not just a change for the l...
