Medical Devices: vary in both their intended use and indications for use. Examples range from simple, low-risk devices such as tongue depressors, medical thermometers, disposable gloves, and bedpans to complex, high-risk devices that are implanted and sustain life.
A recently discovered communication system used by cells to send messages across the human body promises to revolutionize our understanding of disease and how we treat it. Technologies based...
In this webinar the speaker discusses the approach taken by the Food and Drug administration in their pre-market review of in vitro diagnostic tests. The legal bar passed by congress in...
One of the primary goals of precision medicine is the aggregation and interpretation of deep, longitudinal patient-specific data in the context of the digital universe of information, using a...
The reproducibility of animal studies is now critical to ensure that limited resources are used wisely and that efforts yield useable knowledge. At this time, IACUCs and other similar a...
Surgerized animals play a crucial role in preclinical research aimed at drug and medical device discovery into treatments for humans. When implementing new in-house surgical models to perform...
Diagnostic error impacts millions of US adults and children every year1,2. Failure to order an appropriate diagnostic test and incorrect interpretation of diagnostic test results are co...
Medical Technology Partner’s presentation is designed highlight what Medicare is proposing to do based on the Protecting Access to Medicare Act of April 1, 2014 with regard to clinical...
While TDM is routinely used in a number of medical fields, it has not gained wide utilization in oncology. There is a growing body of evidence demonstrating that current dosing methods based...
As a computational scientist I have been fortunate to work with many collaborators to generate biological data to train and test my models. We are in a position with increasing amounts of dat...
Consumer, Household, and Industrial (CH&I) formulations have increasingly driven towards more environmentally acceptable ingredients within water-based formulations, microbial control str...
Clinical laboratories and, indeed, health care overall, are facing potential paradigm shifts in how innovative and higher quality care are delivered to patients. From ever more precise and ac...
Discussion of the guaiac based test introduced in 1971 and its' shortcomings versus Fecal Immunochemical Testing (FIT) and how it relates to acute and non-acute facilities.
Why is FIT...
In the context of an experimental project requiring surgical preparation of animals, training is not only required for technicians lacking a strong surgical background but also for more exper...
 Contemporary serologic testing has revolutionized the field of celiac disease. Highly accurate serologic assays have shown the prevalence of celiac disease to be nearly 1:100 in many populat...
Survival rates for early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remain unacceptably low compared to other common solid tumors. This mortality reflects a weakness in conventional staging, as...
A recent publication in Nature Genetics1 analyzed TCGA data, and classified solid tumors into two mutually exclusive classes: C class tumors, driven by copy number alterations; and M class tu...
Obesity is a disease. It was once not considered to be a disease and to be a matter of will power and gluttony. It was also the case that we once thought that fat tissue had no metabolic func...
What is the future of personalized medicine? Featuring Dr. Trevor Hawkins (An Introduction to Companion Diagnostics), Dr. Patrick Joseph (Making It Personal for Patients), and Dr. Richard Fra...
Guidelines for physicians treating pain patients with chronic opioid therapy recommend the patients be monitored for the presence of their prescribed medications. In addition, it is often rec...
Due to the large increase in the number and complexity of clinical laboratory tests, optimal use of laboratory testing services has presented many challenges. The Clinical Laboratory Integrat...
Nonhuman primates in captivity are typically provided with a multitude of behavioral management opportunities, including naturalistic social groupings, foraging devices, complex physical envi...
