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.
This talk will provide an overview of our work in the design of self-assembled, functionalised peptide and protein nanoparticles, hydrogels and bio-interfaces for applications in healthcare....
The skin epidermis is the body's main defense against dehydration and harmful substances. We used germ-free mice to show that the microbiota is essential for proper differentiation and r...
The multiplexing capability of tandem mass tags (TMT) has driven quantitative proteomic experimental designs towards larger numbers of samples. In order to efficiently process hundreds to th...
Recent developments in mass spectrometry-based single-cell proteomics (SCP) have resulted in dramatically improved sensitivity, yet the relatively low measurement throughput remains a limita...
Targeted metabolic profiling enables confident measurements for known compounds of interest, yet to reproducibly measure concentration levels for these key metabolites, especially in large-s...
Comprehensive genomic profiling of myeloid and, increasingly more, lymphoid malignancies is becoming an essential part of clinical diagnostics to improve diagnosis, assist therapeutic decisi...
The rodent visual system has attracted great interest in recent years, owing to its experimental tractability, but the fundamental mechanisms used by the mouse to represent the visual world...
HPV-negative head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) poses challenges for treatment, particularly with limited response to immunotherapy. We investigated tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes...
Most researchers are curious about how to communicate their science to the media, yet they may also be worried that they'll be misquoted or misrepresented in an article. In an age where...
Protein structural disorder helps avoid misfolding and aggregation, but in impeding protein folding might also impede function. The balance between these two selective pressures on protein b...
Myeloid neoplasms are a group of heterogeneus disorders originating from the neoplastic transformation of a pluripotent hematopoietic progenitor cell. Following the acquisition of somatic mu...
The prevalence of EGFR mutation rate positivity in NSCLC is high in Asia, and this is the case in Malaysia as well. This presentation will provide Malaysia’s approach in implementation...
With the increasing number, complexity, and diversity of biomarkers to be tested in support of precision medicine approaches, limited tissue availability and patient health status can be bar...
Functional interactions between cytotoxic immune cells and tumor cells are central to anti-cancer immunity. Some of the proteins involved, particularly immune checkpoints expressed by T cell...
This workshop will cover how to craft, organize, and deliver an engaging scientific talk. It will show you how to use various techniques to turn your research presentation into an engaging a...
Cell-based therapeutics show immense promise in treating a variety of currently incurable diseases due to their potent mechanisms. However, despite recent successes, challenges persist in ma...
In the adult mammalian hippocampus, neurogenesis (in which new neurons are generated and integrated into the CNS) is believed to underlie learning and memory. Within the hippocampus, numerou...
While a decade ago the prognosis of lung cancer patients was very disappointing, nowadays a substantial evolution is driven by targeted treatments and immuno-oncology. With extended, scaled...
Prof. Hofman will present results of a multi-centric study evaluating performance of new Oncomine Dx Express Test, CE IVD for genomic profiling of cancer patient samples. The data cover perf...
In the field of tumor immunotherapy, cancer vaccines are designed to help the immune system recognize and attack cancer cells. More efforts are needed to identify neoantigens, develop combin...
Recent advances in super-resolution fluorescence microscopy based on single-molecule imaging have led to ~10 nm spatial resolution and exciting science. We are developing new approaches to a...
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has become the most effective tool in the practice of clinical oncology. The technology allows for rapid detection of variants in DNA/RNA simultaneously in a...
LGC offers a comprehensive portfolio of reference standards and scientific tools for a wide range of disciplines. The focus of this talk will be on reference materials for clinical NGS produ...
This talk will provide an overview of our work in the design of self-assembled, functionalised peptide and protein nanoparticles, hydrogels and bio-interfaces for applications in healthcare....
