As of March 2021, SARS-CoV-2 has infected 115 million people and caused over 2.56 million deaths. The emergence of mutants associated with changes to transmission of SARS-CoV-2 has shown tha...
Microphysiological systems (MPS), also known as organ-on-chips, are small scale in vitro cell cultures which mimic facets of tissue or organ level function. MPS frequently utilise primary hu...
New insights on the pathogenesis of COVID-19 7:00–7:30 pm PDT Presented By: Olaf Rötzschke, PhD The SIgN Mass Cytometry Platform (MCP) was originally established by Evan Newell, P...
The isolation of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) and the discovery of human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) reprogramming have sparked a renaissance in stem cell biology, in vitro di...
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...
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are among the most intensively studied drug targets, and account for about ~34% of all drugs approved by the FDA. Examples of drugs targeting GPCRs includ...
Gene manipulation studies in primary human immune cells can answer important biological questions within a clinically relevant cellular context. In this webinar we explore the use of several...
DNA methylation is an essential mechanism of epigenetic gene regulation with broad relevance in development and disease. Its localization on genomic DNA and general stability make this epigen...
Gene therapy has experienced an increasing number of successful human clinical trials, leading to 6 FDA approved products using delivery vectors based on adeno-associated viruses (AAV). Thes...
Over the past 25 years many advances in techniques have been incorporated into infectious disease research. From genetically modified animals to advances in basic techniques that improve res...
Watch how to passage feeder-free Pluripotent Stem Cells (PSCs) cultured in Essential 8 medium using EDTA. Learn the best practices to help ensure successful passage of your cells....
In 1910, Harrison published the first report of frog embryonic sympathetic ganglia grown in hanging drops of lymph for a few days, where single neurons extended nerve fibers with complex gro...
Genomic data is vast and increasingly sparse. This problem grows as we sequence more and more patients. Herein, Professor Ennis will describe an algorithmic tool that reduces the sparsity of...
It is well known that laboratories often handle sensitive information. The negative consequences can be severe when there is a breach of data and confidentiality. Therefore, when choosing a...
In search of the next generation chromatographic technique for antibody purification, our team has developed an affinity chromatography method using the unconventional nucleotide binding sit...
Multiple factors can affect and impact infection dynamics and virulence produced by influenza virus (IV) infections. Susceptibility factors and host responses can also have major effects in d...
Antibody-based therapeutics are helping patients across a wide range of disease areas, from cancer, such as Rituximab treatment of CD20-positive non-Hodgkin's lymphomas, to infectious di...
Clinical whole genome sequencing (cWGS) is rapidly gaining acceptance as cost is decreasing and success rates in identifying disease-causing variants are increasing. While the application of...
Controlling the spread of the 2019 novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 and ensuring a return to 'normal' activities in a post-COVID world requires two complementary efforts: 1) Widespread a...
The IHME COVID-19 Projection Model has been two years in the making, and this talk will share details on how it works and what it says about our current point in the COVID pandemic as well a...
A hypoxic tumour microenvironment is a feature of solid tumours. Many tumour types contain high fractions of hypoxic tissue. The relationship between high levels of tumour hypoxia and a poor...
Our new cell-by-cell analysis module allows users to ‘count and classify’ heterogeneity in cell populations over time.This software uses novel algorithms to segment the HD pha...
In Andalman et al, 2018, we explored the activity of over 10,000 neurons across more than 15 regions imaged simultaneously in larval zebrafish in a novel behavioral challenge paradigm. Compl...
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease affecting approximately 1 in 50,000 people worldwide. About 10% of these cases are found to have a hereditary component, bu...
There have been significant increases in emergency room visits across the US and delays in the ED leads to poor outcomes. There is an association between waiting times and short term mo...
Most Cannabis testing laboratories perform a variety of tests, full analysis for production QA/QC, and contract commercial testing, while others focus on extraction or purification only, or...
