Learn about the latest medical breakthroughs by participating in webinars on topics surrounding disease, prevention and treatment in accordance with the latest research in health and medicine. Updates encompass a biological, psychological and sociological understanding of health.
As you transition your discovery through research and development to commercial production in a GMP setting, your goal is to speed that process by minimizing variables. Laboratory equipment...
Speech neuroprostheses have the potential to restore communication to people living with paralysis, but naturalistic speed and expressivity are elusive. Here we use high-density surface reco...
The Human Microbiome Project was conceived almost 15 years ago, as an extension of the Human Genome Project, to explore the diversity of human-associated microorganisms at multiple body site...
The global trend towards industrialization and urbanization has led to ever more people living and working indoors. Some studies estimate that humans in industrialized countries spend as much...
Activating mutations in PIK3CA are frequent in human breast cancer, and phosphoinositide 3-kinase alpha (PI3Kα) inhibitors have been approved for therapy. To characterize determinants...
If you use a pipette on a daily basis, then this webinar is for you. Pipettes are used to prepare samples, blanks, and standards for a range of analytical experiments. This is why the wrong...
With over 500 million COVID-19 cases and more than 6 million deaths, the COVID-19 pandemic remains a global health threat maintained by the impact of a changing virus. Emerging SARS-CoV-2 va...
Cancers are genetic diseases driven by recurrent sets of somatic mutations. Different mutations associate statistically with distinct disease risks and can therefore be useful prognostic mar...
Cases of traumatic brain injury (TBI) have been steadily rising over the past decade with most common causes of injury observed among participants in contact sports, combat military personne...
Wolframin is a major protein of the endoplasmic reticulum, it is expressed in most tissues and clinical data demonstrate its significant connection to diabetes mellitus. L...
Plasticity in the brain is very extensive due to the brain’s parallel architecture and synaptic reorganization capabilities. Because neuronal populations are typically in stable low e...
We currently do not have effective vaccines or antiviral drugs for most of the viral diseases that afflict humans. Antiviral therapies that enable long-term control over human immunodeficien...
Effective immunotherapy of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is hampered by the lack of suitable tumor-specific antigens. To address this challenge, we have combined high-throughput fl...
This webinar is designed to explore the fundamental characteristics of reverse transcriptases and the essential factors that play a pivotal role in achieving high-quality cDNA synthesis from...
The Genomes2People Research Program (G2P), led by Robert Green at Brigham and Women’s Hospital, the Broad Institute, Ariadne Labs, and Harvard Medical School, conducts research to acce...
Gene therapy is defined as the treatment of disease by transfer of genetic material into cells, to prevent, treat and potentially even cure a disease. Gene therapies can work by several mech...
In 2019, over 220,000 Canadians will be diagnosed with cancer and 82,000 will die of the disease. Approximately 90% of cancer related deaths are the result of metastatic disease. This is ind...
The need for next-generation, broadly protective coronavirus vaccines is underscored by the accelerated pace at which human coronaviruses have been emerging, the evolution of the current pan...
The WOLF Cell Sorter from NanoCellect Biomedical was designed to provide an affordable microfluidic benchtop solution to sort cell easily, gently using sterile microfluidic cartridges. NanoC...
Proteins are the functional blocks of any biological entity from 50 nm sized viruses to the 100 ft long mammals (blue whale). They perform intra cellular, tissue, organ, system, or organism...
The toxicology of particulate matter is complicated by characteristics not normally encountered when addressing poisonings associated with chemical substances. Particle shape, surface reacti...
Precision medicine based on molecular profiling is moving from the realm of clinical utility studies towards standard of care. There remain, however, significant technological and implementat...
Cell encapsulation within semi-permeable devices represents a local immunoisolation strategy for cell-based therapies without the need for systemic immunosuppression. The encapsulation syste...
Influenza viruses are transmitted by membrane-bound virus particles, or virions. Unlike some viruses, which produce near-identical virions from a well-defined set of viral components, influen...
