Human biology is the branch of biology that focuses on human beings and human populations; it encompasses all aspects of the human organism including genetics, ecology, anatomy and physiology, anthropology, and nutrition, among others. Human biology is related to other fields of biology such as medicine, primate biology, and biological anthropology.
COVID-19 has developed into a crisis of global proportions. COVID-19 is caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Key to SARS-CoV-2 therapeutic development is u...
Learning Objectives: 1. Understanding the integral value of collaboration for advancement in scientific research; how to establish and grow academic, Pharma, and industry connections 2. Lear...
Therapeutic antibody can provide key protection or lifesaving treatment for those who haven't been or can’t be vaccinated, or when vaccines don’t “take". We galvan...
Deregulation of Receptor Tyrosine Kinase (RTK) signaling underlies a large fraction of human cancers. These genetic perturbations lead to a variety of cell autonomous and non-cell autonomous...
Infectious diseases, such as COVID-19, are challenging to study in animal models due to species differences, and conventional 2D cell-based systems lack the complexity to appropriately model...
The Allen Institute for Cell Science is generating a state space of stem cell signatures. The goal is to understand cell organization, identify cell states, and elucidate how cells transitio...
The recent development of highly multiplexed methods for imaging tissues from patients and mouse models promises to fundamentally advance research in tissue biology and disease. These new te...
Image-based high-content screening (HCS) involving cancer cell lines grown in conventional two-dimensional (2D) cell culture, has provided a cornerstone assay for searching new agents to tre...

This talk will peek under the hood to show how we combine deep learning models with biology lab automation at Recursion Pharmaceuticals. Every week, we generate millions of microscopy images...
In this webinar, we will present QIAGEN CLC Genomics Workbench and its utility for bacterial isolate identification, strain discrimination using core genome multi-locus typing (cgMLST) and d...
Learning Objectives: 1. Understand the challenges of extracting DNA from human samples for microbiome analysis, and learn about the best technologies for accomplishing this 2. Learn about pr...
The selective pressure placed on the resident microbiota by local changes in the host environment – DNA damage, chronic inflammation, metabolic shifts, barrier damage, reduced immunosu...
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by SARS-CoV-2, is spreading rapidly across the world and was announced as a “global pandemic” by the World Health Organization (WHO) o...
Viruses are the causative agents of approximately 12% of human cancers. The most recently discovered herpesvirus, Kaposi’s sarcoma herpesvirus (KSHV) is known to cause three human canc...
The host response to infection is a critical determinant of virus pathogenicity. Emerging viruses require the host cellular machinery to replicate and successfully infect new hosts, and must...
Asthma is an increasing health concern affecting more than 25 million individuals in the United States and more than 300 million individuals worldwide. In some cases, sensitization or exposu...
Epidemics are occurring at an increasing pace and scale. Our laboratory group has developed platform technologies for discovery of broad and potent neutralizing antibodies for many emerging...
Human chromosome 19q13.4 contains genes encoding killer-cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIR). The region has certain properties such as single nucleotide variation, structural variation,...
