Metabolism: The complex of physical and chemical processes occurring within a living cell or organism that are necessary for the maintenance of life. In metabolism some substances are broken down to yield energy for vital processes while other substances, necessary for life, are synthesized.

Background: Healthcare access (HCA) encompasses five important dimensions: Affordability, Availability, Accessibility, Accommodation and Acceptability. Published studies of cancer typically...
Date: October 1, 2020 Time: 10:00am (PTD), 1:00pm (EDT) Cancer cells rely on altered metabolism to support their proliferation. We performed a CRISPR/Cas9 functional genomic screen targeting...
Date: October 10, 2020 Time: 10:00am (PDT), 1:00pm (EDT) Rodent bile collection studies can be challenging. Not only do they require a technically difficult surgery, but there is also a lear...
Combinatorial inhibition of effector and feedback pathways is a promising treatment strategy for KRAS mutant cancers. However, the particular pathways that should be targeted to optimize the...
The adenosine analogue remdesivir has emerged as a front-line antiviral treatment for SARS-CoV-2, with preliminary evidence that it reduces the duration and severity of illness. Prior clinic...
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major public health threat, affecting 11-15% of the U.S. population alone. Currently, there are no effective therapies to cure CKD. Drug therapies are not p...
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a global health threat, affecting over 10% of the world population, including an estimated 37 million Americans. Importantly, glomerular diseases account for...
Viruses and virally transmitted diseases have been impacting human health and well-being for hundreds of years. Some of our greatest scientific challenges and medical triumphs have involved...
Abnormal cellular metabolism is a hallmark of many diseases, yet there is an absence of quantitative methods to dynamically image metabolism with cellular-level resolution. Optical metabolic...
Date: September 16, 2020 Time: 7:00am (PDT), 10:00am (EDT) During the early stages of the COVID-19 outbreak in the UK, there was a great deal of uncertainty. Pathology and diagnostic service...
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...
This talk will touch on several key points: PhD (MD) important grounding in science; how to develop friendships, gather mentors and collaborators; keep up with the literature; look at eviden...
In the movie "Moana" the lead character sings the refrain, "There's no telling how far I'll go" before she heads off on the adventure of a lifetime. In this short...
Current cancer management follows a multipronged approach that include surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. There is a pressing need for a platform technology to provide precision chemother...

My lab is developing a bacterial strain that will catalyze the conversion of carbon dioxide to fuels and products using electrons from an electrode as the sole source of reducing power. This...
The major function of mitochondria in cellular homeostasis has been the generation of ATP through oxidative phosphorylation. However, we have previously demonstrated that mitochondria can se...
In this webinar, Dr. Luke O'Neill will discuss an overview of immunology and immunometabolism in infectious disease. The past 10 years or so has seen a major resurgence of interest in im...
In this webinar, Dr. Yuting Sun discusses her research supporting a Phase 1 clinical trial advancing cancer therapies, targeted at metabolic vulnerabilities. Metabolic rewiring is a hallmark...
