Biotechnology: is the use of living systems and organisms to develop or make products, or "any technological application that uses biological systems, living organisms, or derivatives thereof, to make or modify products or processes for specific use" (UN Convention on Biological Diversity, Art. 2). Depending on the tools and applications, it often overlaps with the (related) fields of bioengineering, biomedical engineering, biomanufacturing, molecular engineering, etc.
Learning Objectives: 1. Understand the evolving epidemiology of prostate cancer in the the US and globally, and the excess burden of disease borne by men of African ancestry 2. Describe the...
Join Branden Hopkinson, Product Marketing Manager at Visiopharm, who will talk about using AI classifiers to find patterns in your images and which artificial intelligence method will work b...
Cancer is a multifactorial disease, and its genesis and progression are extremely complex. The scope of precision oncology is rapidly expanding to address previously undruggable targets. The...
Tumor phenotypes are dictated not only by the neoplastic cell component, but also by the tumor microenvironment (TME), which is inherently immuno-suppressive, is equipped to hamper effector...
Robotic partial nephrectomy (RPN) has increasingly been applied to the treatment of small renal masses. Because of space limitations and the size of the robot at the patient side, the standa...
Immune therapy approaches are being used in many different solid cancers today including clear cell renal carcinoma (mccRCC) and metastatic prostate adenocarcinoma. Over the past few years i...
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...
RNA plays important and diverse roles in biology, but molecular tools to manipulate and measure RNA are limited. We demonstrate that RNA-targeting CRISPR effector Cas13 can be engineered for...
The CRISPR/Cas genome editing system has revolutionized nearly every aspect of the life science industry. Until recently, the most used formats for this technology have been plasmids, mRNA,...
Combinatorial inhibition of effector and feedback pathways is a promising treatment strategy for KRAS mutant cancers. However, the particular pathways that should be targeted to optimize the...
There are many methods of nucleic acid isolation. Each technology offers different approaches of purification of the template. However, it is important to control carry over of “proces...

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanosized vesicles containing active proteins, lipids, and different types of genetic material such as non coding RNA species, related to the characteristics...
Come join us for a live chat with Bernd Bodenmiller. When you enter the meeting room you can raise your hand to be unmuted by our moderator to ask your questions or just introduce yourself a...
Single-cell mass cytometry identifies mechanisms of resistance to immunotherapy in AML 6:30–7:00 am PDT Presented By: Shelley Herbrich, PhD Understanding CD19 negative relapse followin...
This talk will explore HILIC chromatography methods for the analysis of released N-glycans labeled with InstantPC or 2-AB dyes. Best practices for robust methods will be introduced. Method d...
T cells are the adaptive immune system’s first responders to any virus, circulating in the blood to detect and quickly multiply to attack the virus, and also support the development of...
