Cell: is the smallest structural and functional unit of an organism, typically microscopic and consisting of cytoplasm and a nucleus enclosed in a membrane. Microscopic organisms typically consist of a single cell, which is either eukaryotic or prokaryotic.
Background: Despite the immunogenicity and safety profile of dendritic cell (DC) vaccines, the importance of vaccine-induced antigen-specific T cell responses is unclear across clinical tria...
Many questions at the forefront of biology depend on the interactions of millions of single cells. My lab develops technologies for studying large numbers of single cells. In this talk, I wi...
Metastatic prostate cancer (mPC) is a phenotypically diverse disease with poor responses to immune based therapeutics. Development of immunotherapeutic strategies for mPC is hampered by the...
Background: CDK4/6 inhibitors increase tumor immunogenicity in preclinical models of breast cancer and several trials combining CDK4/6 inhibitors and anti-PD1/PDL1 therapies are underway. Ho...
Precision medicine is the paradigm to develop treatments for patients based on molecular-targets that are effective in vivo when administered. In addition to identifying the molecular and ce...
If you have ever worked in the field of gene-editing, then you must know the powerful gene-editing technology known as CRISPR. It has the potential to alter science and biotechnology at an i...
Techniques to analyze and sort single cells based on secreted products have the potential to transform our understanding of cellular biology as well as accelerate the development of next gen...
The basic units of biological structure and function are cells, which exhibit wide variation in regard to both type and state. We assess such variation by simultaneously profiling the transc...
Targeted therapies for cancer are increasingly being developed as an alternative for, and in addition to, immunotherapy. Altered tumor signaling can be exploited to single-out cancer cells f...
While many technologies focus on either exploring the spatial context of a handful of targets, or expression patterns of hundreds or thousands of targets in bulk samples or dissociated singl...
The RNAscope in situ hybridization technology allows high sensitivity, specificity and spatial resolution providing pivotal single-cell gene expression information to gain better insights in...
Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly aggressive disease associated with poor outcome. It is expected to be the leading cause of cancer-related death in 2030. The unique microe...
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) have shown durable and long-term benefits in a subset of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) patients. To identify patient-responders from non-re...
The majority of patients with advanced NSCLC do not respond to monotherapy with PD-1 axis inhibition, and more robust predictive biomarkers are needed. In this study, we assessed tumor sampl...
Background: Growing evidence supports the critical role of preexisting immune response in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). However, there are limitations with current evaluation approac...
We applied CITE-Seq to measure >150 cell surface immune markers and checkpoint proteins simultaneous to RNA-Sequencing. We resolve the tumour-immune milieu with high precision and reveal...
DATE: May 19, 2020 TIME: 8:00am PT, 11:00am ET Limited sample material resulting in insufficient DNA input is a common hurdle for downstream analysis. This problem can be solved using a vari...
The GeoMx Digital Spatial Profiling technology enables high-plex RNA and protein profiling of any region within any tissue type. This workshop will highlight the latest developments toward e...
B-cell lymphomas and leukemias originate from the malignant transformation and proliferation of one or a small number of B cells. Since each B-cell expresses distinct B-cell receptors (BCRs)...
