This compilation of webinars touch on the various human diseases are most commonly attributed to the subject matter of microbiology, as well as the many microbes that are also responsible for numerous beneficial processes.
We live in a revolutionary era during which technology is leading to amazing advances in medicine. Parallel and aided by the development of artificial intelligence (AI) are the emergence of...
The gut microbiota has been proposed to affect the risk and prognosis of various health outcomes. Related to pregnancy, existing studies suggest that pregnant women have a distinct microbiot...
The global demand for point-of-care testing (POCT) for diagnosing infectious diseases is growing. Bringing the test directly to the person needing the result greatly reduces the turn-around-...
Infectious diseases have been a major threat to human health throughout history, causing significant economic damage worldwide. In modern medicine, quickly and accurately identifying the ger...
bacteriovorus is a predatory bacterium that preys on Gram-negative bacteria. B. bacteriovorus invades the prey-cell periplasm – the space between the inner and outer membrane – l...
Analysis of community wastewater has been shown to be an effective method for tracking the prevalence of SARS-COV-2. Our group has developed techniques for sequencing a portion of the SARS-C...
Traditional hybridoma and phage display methods have failed to yield therapeutic antibodies against difficult targets like most GPCRs and ion channels. This presentation will introduce Berke...
The regions of our genome responsible for encoding the genes that regulate our immune response are some of the most complex and polymorphic known. This complexity encompasses multiple types...
The tumor-associated microbiota is an inherent component of the tumor microenvironment across various human cancer types1. Although members of tumor-associated microbiomes can be identified t...
In the rapidly expanding landscape of molecular diagnostics, the focus is shifting from top to bottom, with a redirection from post-pandemic respiratory testing to developments in gastrointe...
RNA viruses use a variety of interactions with host proteins to gain entry, to evade immune responses, to promote viral replication, and to promote viral egress and spread. These interaction...
Health economists are great at calculating a value-based price for diagnostic tests. Given the unexpected supply and demand for SARS-CoV-2 tests during the pandemic, efficient allocation of...
Prompt and early diagnosis of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) is important to enable appropriate treatment and help prevent further transmission....
Over 80% of opportunistic infections in humans are caused by microbial biofilms. Traditional methods of study for these infections have focused on single species yet there is a wealth of evi...
The arenaviruses are an important group of pathogens that includes several agents of severe human disease, with symptoms that include hemorrhagic fever and neurological complications; howeve...
Learning Objectives 1. Understand the life cycle of the malaria causing parasite, Plasmodium 2. Understand new approaches to identifying host regulators of infection 3. Describe advantages a...
Gene Synthesis ensures fast access to nearly any DNA sequence, regardless of its origin or complexity. Its reliability, flexibility and fast turnaround time offer a clear advantage over trad...
1. Identify the basic characteristics of the vaginal microbiota 2. Identify some ways in which the vaginal microbiota may protect against acquisition of sexually transmitted and urogenital i...
This presentation explores the role of microorganisms in the engineered barrier system of a deep geological repository (DGR) for used nuclear fuel, with a focus on bentonite clay and surroun...
Ebola virus executes its replication cycle through a tightly orchestrated sequence of events, but the host factors that govern the timing of these steps have remained poorly defined. In this...
Research on decomposition odor has evolved significantly since the first introduction of this concept in the literature in 2004. This work is foundational to understanding several areas of f...
Many clinically approved drugs that are prescribed to modulate human physiology are also potent antimicrobials at physiological concentrations. Recent systematic studies indicate that bacter...
The evolution of the planetary situation is presently knowing multiple rapid and severe complications impacting both geophysical as well as all the life aspects. Multiple parameters undergo...
Curious about how engineered polymerases are transforming the landscape of infectious disease diagnostics? Our speaker, Dr. Maja Studencka-Turski, will guide you through a comprehensive disc...
The COVID-19 pandemic has underlined the need for an efficient collaboration between scientists, policy makers and the general public to tackle the crisis. Infectious disease experts play a...
Antibiotic treatment failure poses a burden on global public health systems. Bacteria can acquire mutations and extrachromosomal genes that allow them to be resistant to our existing drugs....
The effect of long-term mixed-waste contamination, particularly uranium and nitrate, on the microbial community in the terrestrial subsurface at the Oak Ridge Integrated Field Research Chall...
We live in a revolutionary era during which technology is leading to amazing advances in medicine. Parallel and aided by the development of artificial intelligence (AI) are the emergence of...
