Apolipoprotein E epsilon 4 (APOE4) is the primary genetic risk factor for late-onset Alzheimer's disease (AD). APOE4 carriers, especially females, tend to develop gut dysbiosis earlier t...
Virginia will discuss work on single-trial analysis of EEG signals during episodic memory tasks. They develop single-trial classifiers to predict whether people will remember pictures from E...
Quantitative genetic analysis plays a critical role in the research and development of novel biotherapeutics. As a sensitive and precise method for quantitating specific nucleic acid targets...
Hydrogen deuterium exchange (HDX) mass spectrometry (MS) is a powerful tool for studying the dynamics of higher order structure of protein-based therapeutics. In the here presented case stud...
Research and medical genomics require comprehensive and scalable solutions to drive the discovery of novel disease targets, evolutionary drivers, and genetic markers with clinical significan...
Genomics, epigenomics and transcriptomics are often thought of as independent fields, but in our clinical practice we use them combined to increase diagnostic yield both for constitutional a...
Robots are useful tools for studying the nervous system and its control of body mechanics because they can be used to perform experiments that would be difficult to perform with an animal. F...
Spatial analysis of protein or gene expression is vital to understanding the distribution, phenotypes, and interactions between cells within tumor microenvironment (TME). Traditionally, mult...
Personalized treatment plans for blood cancers rely on the specialized skills of clinical laboratorians using a variety of analytic methods ranging from microscopic examination to molecular...
Infant motor development is measured clinically using short, subjective, observational scales. While these scales are useful, they have limitations. They provide us with a “snapshot&rd...

In this fireside chat, we’ll discuss how gene editing protocols can benefit from long-read sequencing at various stages to optimize and enhance vector integrity, which cannot be addres...
This talk will explore the integration of genomics with electronic health records (EHRs) in biobanks, emphasizing its potential to enhance women's health research. We'll delve into h...
Across many cancers, mortality is associated with metastasis and acquired drug resistance, both of which often manifest in recurrent disease. Central to these phenomena is epithelial to mese...
Given its ability to isolate pathogens, nuclei, and immune cells for downstream applications, cell sorting is an essential tool for immunological studies. Yet, the potential for aerosol form...
CRISPR has emerged as a promising alternative to viral-based gene editing by allowing scientists to modify genes with unprecedented ease and flexibility. The discovery and development of a d...
In this presentation, I will discuss my experiences leading to my current position as a scientist and team leader, focused on chemical biology and drug discovery in the pharmaceutical indust...
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy shows significant potential in treating various human cancers. Unfortunately, researchers have faced difficulty in adapting this therapy to tar...
The panel will be followed by an outstanding series of breakout sessions including, Kentucky River Watershed Watch, Kentucky Waterways Alliance, Kentucky Department of Environmental Protecti...
The revolution in life science research aims to understand how single cells work, which is crucial for developing new therapies. Traditional methods like FACS and scRNASeq give only a partia...
Measurable or minimal residual disease (MRD) is the presence of very small numbers of tumor cells which may remain in the body following treatment. MRD testing currently has multiple clinica...
