In all organisms, innate immune pathways sense infection and rapidly activate potent immune responses while maintaining a high degree of specificity to prevent inappropriate activation (auto...
Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly aggressive disease associated with poor outcome. It is expected to be the leading cause of cancer-related death in 2030. The unique microe...
The cancer drug discovery landscape is shifting. While research continues to grow in cost and complexity, the pace of development has never been faster. Biopharmaceutical companies can&rsquo...
Genome engineers can leverage an ever-expanding array of biological and computational tools to make targeted genetic changes. Maintaining and optimizing components ranging from reagent desig...
Creating inducible Pluripotent Stem Cell (iPSC) collections of rare patients scattered world-wide can lower the barrier of biological discovery of rare disease, provide a platform for potenti...
Dr. Bacher will be discussing the history and evolution of MSI, the differences between popular testing methods, and what the future holds for this powerful biomarker....
The postmortem microbiome is an emerging field in forensic science with broad application for death investigation (e.g., time since death). While the foundation for forensic microbiology beg...
Western blotting is an important technique for characterizing specific protein targets. Successful western detection is dependent on the quality of protein transfer from polyacrylamide gels t...
Although affinity tag methods for protein purification have greatly accelerated research in laboratories throughout the world, the presence of the tag on the purified target can modify the t...
Antibodies have become one of the most important tools in life science research, allowing the detection, quantitation, and determination of changes in proteins and other molecules with respe...
The forecast IHME released on March 26, 2020, was geared to helping hospitals plan for a surge in demand for their resources (e.g., beds, ICUs, ventilators) to fight COVID-19. With many loca...
Background and aim: Rapid and complex diagnosis of viral, bacterial and parasitic infections is highly desirable not only in clinical practice, but also in food safety or early warning syste...
While providing indispensable insight into immune processes, the live cell imaging of immune cells poses unique challenges due to their non-adherent nature. Suspension cells such as immune c...
Medical laboratories are an integral part of the healthcare system. They supply crucial diagnostic data that underpins disease detection, patient care, and public health management....
To date, the therapeutic use of cannabinoids in chronic pain management remains controversial owing to the limited clinical evidence found in randomized clinical trials (RCTs), the heterogen...
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has increased awareness about sex-specific differences in immunity and outcomes following respiratory virus infections. Strong evidence of a male bias in acute...
Precision medicine and next-generation sequencing – Two terms characterized by a highly dynamic nature, strong innovations and a bright future. Both merged together will exert a decisiv...
Integrated protocols and live-cell analysis solutions for different 3D tumor modelsIn the search for greater clinical translation, cancer researchers are increasingly turning to more comp...
We use COVID-19 cases, hospitalizations, and mortality data and a deterministic SEIR (susceptible, exposed, infectious and recovered) compartmental framework to model possible trajectories o...
Network models are an invaluable tool for integrating multiple data types and for modeling interactions between biological elements. One common question that arises, however, is what to do wi...
Multiplexed immunofluorescent imaging sheds new light on cancer and other complex conditions. This imaging technique offers a deeper understanding of cells and their surroundings by providin...
Dr. John Moore, Professor of Microbiology and Immunology at Weill Cornell Medicine, a Vaccine and Virology researcher, will talk about SARS-CoV-2 vaccines and variants and other topical issu...
This lecture will encompass the learning experience I have had over my 14,000 RALP cases. We will present an evidence based prospective data collection and analysis of RALP outcomes. We will...
The recent development of highly multiplexed methods for imaging tissues from patients and mouse models promises to fundamentally advance research in tissue biology and disease. These new te...
Targeted sequencing assays are increasingly used to identify tumor mutations that guide therapeutic decisions. Interpretation of a cancer variant’s origin and therapeutic impact poses a...
In all organisms, innate immune pathways sense infection and rapidly activate potent immune responses while maintaining a high degree of specificity to prevent inappropriate activation (auto...
