Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) is a key analyte for liquid biopsy samples. Due to extremely low concentration and high degree of fragmentation, the extraction of cfDNA is technically challenging. Her...
In December 2012 the UK Prime Minister announced the 100,000 genomes project to introduce whole genome sequencing for treatment into the UK National Health Service (NHS) o...
In the past several years, there has been an increase in drug testing associated with chronic pain. Immunoassays are the most common method for initial screening which can test for a specific...
Cell culture continues to be a critical tool for most life science research and applications. From HeLa to iPSCs and 3D to organoids, culture methods have become more advanced and techniques...
Endometrial adenoarcinoma is a common cause of gynecological cancer death in Europe and North America. The most dominant subtype, Endometrioid Endometrial Cancer (EEC) accounts for >80% of...
The explosion of biomedical data such as in genomics, structure biology and pharmacology can provide new opportunities to improve our understanding of human physiology and disease. Understan...
Cancer is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in developed countries including the United States. Early detection of various cancers, before they spread and become incurable, has been...
The popularity reached by the genetic manipulation of laboratory animals to create new models for studying human diseases, produced in turn, that the techniques for assisted reproduction cons...
The biological state of the cell is characterized by a complex network of interacting genes, gene products, proteins, microRNAs, as well as other molecules. Microarrays and next generation se...
COVID-19 has changed the way companies operate, the way employees perform their work and the way both are adapting to the environment. In this session, we'll cover both macro industry tr...
While chemiluminescence has been the traditional approach to western blot detection, this strategy is being progressively supplemented or replaced with fluorescence-based detection. With the...
Analysis of antigen- and virus-specific T cells is essential to the understanding of fundamental immunological processes in the contexts of e.g. infectious diseases, immuno-oncology, as well...
Learning Objectives: 1. Explain what is gene therapy is. 2. Explain what steps are involved for getting a gene therapy product to the clinic. 3. Discuss development and manufacturing process...
It is commonly recognized that technicians are the backbone of a successful animal research program. Unfortunately, the invisible contributions that they make as well as the valuable high lev...
G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) remain major drug targets, despite an incomplete understanding of how they signal through 16 non-visual G-protein signal transducers (collectively named t...
CRISPR ribonucleoproteins (RNPs) can generate programmable gene edits, however imprecise editing and efficient delivery to human stem cells are key challenges. Here we describe novel biochemi...
The 8th Edition of the Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals (Guide NRC, 2011) has been in use since 2011. What changes has it brought? What are the impacts of those changes? The g...
The use of pluripotent stem cells is dramatically altering the R&D landscape, providing new insights into both the basic biology of disease progression and novel cell types for pharmaceut...
All personnel involved in an animal care and use program are expected to have an appropriate level of education, training and/or qualifications to perform their duties as defined through laws...
Phenoconversion is a mismatch between an individual’s genotype-based prediction of a drug metabolism and its true capacity. In other words, there is a mismatch between the clinically o...
Learning Objectives: 1. Discuss the potential for newborn screening by whole genome sequencing. 2. Review the current evidence for the sensitivity and specificity of newborn screening by who...
Learning Objectives: 1. Participants will understand how cannabis works with the Endocannabinoid system and what is the Endocannabinoid system 2. Participants will understand how cannabis is...
Traditional models of basal ganglia disorders are grounded in the assumption that network dysfunction is driven by alterations in intrinsic excitability of striatal neurons. Recent work has c...
The implications of NIH BRAIN research stretch beyond traditional medical and research contexts. This LabRoots session will present recent developments at the intersection of neuroscience and...
I will present our new computer vision algorithm, ST-Net, which can computationally synthesize spatially resolved transcriptomics directly from H&E histology images (He et al. Nature Bio...
