Environmental enrichment can be defined as altering the living environment of captive animals in order to provide opportunities to express more of their natural behavioral repertoire. The cha...
Liquid Biopsies are gaining acceptance in the Oncology community as a surrogate or complement to the gold standard of tissue biopsy. A liquid biopsy provides biomarker information that...
This talk goes over the importance of face masks as a pillar of COVID-19 pandemic control. First, we review the epidemiologic evidence for how face masks reduce COVID-19 transmission from st...
Nonhuman primates in captivity are typically provided with a multitude of behavioral management opportunities, including naturalistic social groupings, foraging devices, complex physical envi...
Chronic pain is a major problem in most countries. Specialized pain management physicians often see and treat patients with chronic pain, and one type of therapy that may be prescribed is an...
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is the primary technology used to identify genomic targets for vaccine development, detect emerging viral strains and monitor transmission patterns. Enhanced...
Modern biomedical research greatly benefits from sophisticated techniques which can detect even the most subtle alterations between different individuals or groups. This has raised the bar fo...
Inefficient knock-in of transgene cargos limits the potential of cell-based medicines. In this study, we used a CRISPR nuclease that targets a site within an exon of an essential gene and de...
The human race, like all macrobiological life, evolved in a sea of microbes. There was no way to keep the bacterial and archaeal hoards at bay, so instead life evolved mechanisms to live with...
