Cancer diagnostics often begin with a biopsy and histopathologic examination, from the basis of physical examination and medical history. Sometimes the first indication is an abnormal laboratory test result (eg, anemia resulting from colon cancer).
It has been noted by many in the community that for Precision Medicine to become a transformative reality, the underlying DNA and RNA sequence data have to become more precise. In my talk, I...

Tissues in the body are wonderfully organized, with specific arrangements of cells, extracellular matrix, secreted molecules, and fluid flow that synergize that create emergent functions. How...
The attractiveness of 3D printing technology in the microfluidic field is growing, specifically stereolithographic (SLA) type 3D printers, owing to their low cost, versatility, fast and easy...
With growing standards of patient care, clinical testing laboratory across the world are forced to change the way they manage their laboratory operations. More focus is now given to automatio...
Computer vision (CV) has seen rapid growth in many industries, including the life sciences with high-content cell imaging and phenotypic assays. However, many biomolecular and cellular assay...
In this seminar, Dr Elvira will talk about the use of droplet microfluidic technologies for drug discovery. Initially, she will discuss the fundamental concepts of droplet microfluidic techno...
The ultimate limits of diagnostics in biology are the “quantum” units that convey information, e.g. single nucleic acids, proteins, and cells. Microfluidics has emerged as a power...

To reduce the global burden diseases causes by infectious disease, including parasites and bacteria, scientists need better information about mechanisms of virulence, immune evasion, and drug...
Integration of technology is influencing practice in the clinical laboratory and treatment of patients in the clinical practice arena. As laboratories begin to move from a volume to value mod...
Myeloid leukemias encompass a group of different diseases that include myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN), myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or acute myeloid leukemia (AML). These diseases are d...
The exponential advents of advances in techniques and types of molecular diagnostic testing, and modifying strategies for these tests, are encouraging; but these evolutions simultaneously con...
Determining which patients would derive clinical benefit from immunotherapy is a compelling clinical question. Biomarkers have been shown to predict therapy outcome in various types of cancer...
Personalized medicine driven by genomic-based treatments continues to increase in importance. Representatives from two distinct healthcare entities – a regional reference lab and commun...
The prevailing philosophy in biological testing has been to focus on simple tests with easy to interpret information such as ELISA or lateral flow assays. At the same time, there has been a d...
CRISPR-chip combines two powerful technologies ,CRISPR and Graphene, for rapid detection of nucleic acids. This talk will focus on design and fabrication of CRISPR-chip and its potential util...
QIAGEN helps your team focus on the opportunities, not the obstacles, with an end-to-end clinical testing solution. During this talk, we will present our clinical decision support solutions,...
The BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes represent the best examples of the modern understanding of cancer molecular genetics. Testing for germline and somatic mutations in BRCA 1/2 has gradually become com...
The laboratory diagnosis of infectious diseases has traditionally relied on recovery of pathogens in cultures and for many infections, this approach remains the standard of care. The developm...
Regulatory requirements for verification and validation are complex and often cause confusion among clinical laboratorians, especially in regards to quantitative molecular assays. This presen...
As reimbursement changes and healthcare moves towards value-based models, the clinical laboratory is faced with the challenge of redefining its value outside the cost per test. This session...
