Human research is scientific research conducted with human subjects in an effort to improve health. Human research can involve people directly, but it can also utilize specimens or data from people. Research can be aimed at developing a new drug or therapy or improving a diagnostic or therapeutic technique.
Background and aim: Multiplexing of biomarker panels by microsphere-based technologies are robust and cost-effective methods. The QuantiGene™ Plex Assay (ThermoFisher Scientific) platf...
Background and aim: Rapid and complex diagnosis of viral, bacterial and parasitic infections is highly desirable not only in clinical practice, but also in food safety or early warning syste...
Our laboratory uses tools from pharmacology, genomics, and cell signaling to identify new precision anticancer therapeutic strategies. Under this broad heading, our work involves three key a...
The development of automated DNA sequencers using fluorescent di-deoxy nucleotide sequencing and capillary electrophoresis made it possible to generate the first draft sequences of the human...
Single-cell RNA sequencing has emerged as an important technology that can reveal gene expression differences between different cell types. This webinar will demonstrate how bioinformatics s...

As genomics plays an ever expanding role in healthcare and research, educational programs focused on applied genomics have not kept pace with the demand for trained students. In this talk, w...
Within the clinical arena, the oncology community has led the way in the early adoption of next generation sequencing. NGS is in widespread use in clinical cancer research and is now beginni...
The introduction of PacBio HiFi sequence reads, which are both long (up to 25 kb currently) and accurate (>99%) at the individual single-molecule sequence read level, has allowed for adva...
Karyomapping, a technique for preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) of single gene disorders, involves using very few or single cells, and comes with challenges due to limited amounts of s...
Long-read DNA sequencing technologies such as the Pacific Biosciences (PacBio) and Oxford Nanopore (ONT) platforms, have demonstrated enhanced detection of genomic variation, including Singl...
Learning Objectives: 1. Learn why the complexity and repetitive structure of the human genome makes it impossible to detect all structural variants using short-read sequencing 2. Learn how h...
