Information Technology: is the use of computers to store, retrieve, transmit, and manipulate data, or information, often in the context of a business or other enterprise. IT is considered to be a subset of information and communications technology.
Finding effective treatments for cancer is fundamentally a high-dimensional probabilistic planning, search, and optimization problem, characterized by thousands of molecular subty...
Rare disease affects 30 million people in the United States, with nearly 50% of cases affecting children. Because nearly 80% of rare diseases are genetic, advancements in genomic testing are...
Regulation of precision medicine is rapidly evolving. The pre-existing regulatory framework did not contemplate many of the products and technologies which are becoming available with p...
The pharmaceutical industry’s productivity crisis is well known with >90% of drug candidates failing in clinical testing, primarily due to unexpected toxicity or lack of efficacy. &n...
There is increasing evidence that intracellular miRNAs play a role in the pathogenesis of many complex disease phenotypes. In addition, extracellular miRNAs in exosomes are emerging as...
Complex disease phenotypes - obesity, type II diabetes, and cancer challenge simple models in both evolution and biology. Examination of molecular networks and their dynamic behavior o...
Genomic information has the potential to improve management or potentially prevent or enable early intervention of virtually every disease. However, despite massive technological leaps and ex...

In today’s modern laboratory, resources are often stretched as laboratories struggle to manage multiple priorities, meet regulatory requirements, and contain costs. This is especially t...
In consciousness studies, a longstanding controversy concerns whether activity in the prefrontal cortical (PFC) region of the brain is necessary to evoke conscious experiences. Similarly, the...
Some of the most significant hurdles faced by neuroscientists in the field of neurodegenerative disease research when seeking to acquire genetic information include sample accessibility, repr...
Structure based drug design is now well established as a highly efficient approach in pharmaceutical research. The approach uses atomic level detail structures of target proteins, most...
Pharmacogenomics has emerged as an early use case of precision medicine. Delivering this new clinical data to clinicians in a ready to use format can be challenging. This talk wil...
One-third of FDA-approved drugs target G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), transmembrane cell surface proteins that recognize small molecules and polypeptides with diverse chemical scaffolds...
Preclinical translational imaging, and specifically molecular imaging methods such as positron emission tomography (PET) or single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) as well as magne...
The role of the microbiology laboratory in the processing of positive patient blood cultures has become more complicated with the increasing demand for rapid information to assist in the mana...
In 2012, Consumers Reports and the American Board of Internal Medicine Foundation launched the Choosing Wisely campaign. This initiative, which attracts media attention, assists physicians, n...
In order to expand the treatment options of cancers driven by oncogenic RAS, new cell surface targets need to be identified and characterized. Here, we describe mass spectrometry based phenot...
