Viral genomics uses advanced analytical technologies to study the biology of disease-causing viruses at a genetic level. The aim of viral genomics is to better understand how viruses interact with their hosts and how infections spread through communities. This enables drug and vaccine development efforts as well as informing public health policies.
Melanoma arises in the pigment producing cells (melanocytes) and is the deadliest of the skin cancers. It accounts for nearly 200,000 new cases of cancer each year worldwide and in the U.S. o...
This presentation will be demonstrating several different approaches to explore the diversity, function, and ecology of microbial communities. In Metagenomics, the sequencing of DNA dir...
The Infectious Diseases Pathology Branch of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) routinely receives autopsy and biopsy tissues for diagnostic evaluation. These tissues are typ...
It is well accepted that microorganisms can exist as self-organized communities attached to surfaces and one another (i.e., biofilm), often surrounded by extracellular polymeric substances (E...
Despite FDA-approved vaccines and antivirals, seasonal and pandemic influenza remains a serious threat associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. The present modalities and va...
Oxford Nanopore’s MinION is a small sensing device which can sequence DNA and RNA directly, without the need to perform an enzymatic synthesis reaction. The device is portable and is po...
Oxford Nanopore's MinION is a small, portable USB-powered sensing device which is powered by nanopore technology. It is adaptable to the analysis of DNA, RNA, proteins or small molecules, and...
DNASTAR offers an integrated suite of software for accurate assembly and analysis of sequence data for key NGS workflows, including microbial genome assembly. The DNASTAR assembly software is...
The human race, like all macrobiological life, evolved in a sea of microbes. There was no way to keep the bacterial and archaeal hoards at bay, so instead life evolved mechanisms to live with...
Among many surprising insights, the genomic revolution has helped us to realize that we're never alone and, in fact, barely human. For most of our lives, we share our bodies with some ten ti...
Managing microbial contaminants is critical during the manufacturing of biologics, food and beverage to ensure that products meet the high quality product standard as well as staying complian...
Please click here to watch this webinar On DemandsiRNA-mediated silencing of gene expression has revolutionized the study of biology by enabling rapid and unbiased loss-of-function studies to...
Accurate and timely diagnosis of rejection and infection is essential for long-term survival of solid-organ transplant recipients. We evaluated the performance a novel test to monitor rejecti...
There is growing pressure to implement new generation sequencing platform in hospital emergency rooms. The utility would be obvious: identifying unknown pathogens form cerebrospinal fluid/pl...
Cervical cancer screening has evolved significantly since the PAP smear was introduced in 1949. In particular, the association with human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and the mechanism of H...
Personalized medicine is expected to benefit from the combination of genomic information with the global monitoring of molecular components and physiological states. To ascertain whether this...
A 2013 survey conducted by the Woodrow Wilson Synthetic Biology Project found that 75% of adults have heard just a little or nothing at all about synthetic biology, figures that were virtuall...
