Injury is an instance of being harmed or hurt caused by a physical or emotional force. It is a general term that refers to harm caused by accidents, falls, hits, weapons, and more.
In 2012, the Choosing Wisely initiative was commenced by the ABIM with numerous societies putting forward lists of overused tests or procedures. The Choosing Wisely movement has spread to nu...
Cases of traumatic brain injury (TBI) have been steadily rising over the past decade with most common causes of injury observed among participants in contact sports, combat military personne...
Date: November 9th, 2020 Time: 10:00am PDT SARS-CoV-2 continues to spread rapidly with critically ill patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU), where the mortality rate is reported...
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanosized vesicles containing active proteins, lipids, and different types of genetic material such as non coding RNA species, related to the characteristics...
The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a three-dimensional structure that provides physical support for tissues/organs and biochemical/biomechanical cues for tissue morphogenesis, differentiation...
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are well-known for their detrimental effects leading to oxidative stress, cell death, aging, and degenerative disorders. However, there is increasing evidence t...
Sepsis is a life-threatening condition that is caused by the immune system’s inability to respond appropriately to an infection. How sepsis can change the gut microbiome in ways that a...
During this seminar I will present details of my path from Beckman Scholar to MD-PhD, advanced training as a neurologist, then a neurointensivist, and the interleaving of additional research...
Background: Acute liver injury (ALI) is characterised by hepatocyte death and liver inflammation. Macrophages play a pivotal role in ALI by phagocytosing dead cells and producing pro-regener...
The ExD Option, available for both new and existing Agilent instruments, offers superior electron fragmentation in combination with collision induced dissociation (CID) compared to other exi...
DATE: June 1, 2020 TIME: 11:00am PDT, 2:00pm EDT This webinar will provide an overview of the host response to bacterial and viral infections. The rationale for the use of procalcitonin in a...
Learning Objectives: 1. Introduce the audience to a general overview of bacterial and fungal contamination 2. Identify areas in the growing and manufacturing industries to monitor for bacter...
Approximately 300,000 people in the United States have a spinal cord injury with many of these individuals experiencing permanent motor and sensory deficits. For individuals with cervical sp...
The US Brain Research through Advancing Innovative Neurotechnologies is a research program focused on building fundamental knowledge of how brain circuits process information to enable human...
Brain function is remarkably reliable despite the imprecise performance of neurons, and the continuous perturbations caused by aging, disease or injury. How does the brain succeed in produci...
The aim of the lecture is to give an insight into the use of 3D liver micro tissues (3D liMTs) in drug discovery and translational safety. In translational toxicology, 3D LiMTs have a high i...
Brain machine interfaces or neural prosthetics have the potential to restore movement to people with paralysis or amputation, bridging gaps in the nervous system with an artificial device. M...
Learning Objectives: 1. Describe the exposure response relationships with vancomycin and acute kidney injury 2. Define biomarkers that may be useful to improve Precision Dosing...
