Microarray Analysis & Technology: computerised, robotic technology used to rapidly analyse mutated or missing genes.Microarray analysis provides a way of simultaneously studying the interaction of a large numbers of genes with each other and with regulatory networks that control batteries of genes.
Antibiotic resistance is a national and global public health crisis. Each year in the United States (US), at least 2 million people become infected with antibiotic-resistant bacteria an...
Whooping cough caused by Bordetella infection has resurged in recent years. Dr. Karissa Culbreath will discuss the clinical presentation of Bordetella infection and its public health im...
There are new generations of comprehensive multiplex molecular panels available for infectious diseases syndromic diagnostics. They are able to rapidly detect and identify the most common pat...
The WHO has set ambitious targets for eliminating TB in low-incidence countries such as the US and Canada. While it’s true that the majority of TB cases in these settings arise from rea...
Next-generation DNA sequencing has opened new possibilities for microbial water quality monitoring, particularly for addressing emerging concerns like antibiotic resistance and opportunistic...
DATE: August 9, 2018TIME: 8:00am PDT, 11:00am EDT Current exon-level arrays and NGS techniques for CNV detection are plagued with a high number of false-positive...
Structural variants (SVs), defined as rearrangements of genomic sequences, are both a major source of genetic diversity in human populations and are also directly responsible for the pathogen...

How are your RNA yields? Some sample types present special challenges in RNA purification and analysis. In this webinar, we will discuss and provide tips for the following topics: &b...
Stem cells can self-renew and differentiate into multiple different cell types. Engineering of stem cells has enabled new methods to study development and organogenesis in humans as well as d...
Contractile non-muscle cells, including smooth muscle and myoepithelial cells, provide the mechanical forces required for tissue homeostasis in numerous organ systems. For example, smooth mus...
I will present my lab’s effort on studying and manipulating RNA processing, with particular emphasis on using CRISPR/Cas systems for targeting RNA in living cells in diseases such as my...
The Mexican axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum) is an aquatic salamander that possesses some of the most astonishing regenerative abilities found in nature. Able to fully regenerate amputated...
Although the cell is commonly referred to as “the most basic unit of life”, it is actually so complex that despite over 350 years of research we are still far from fully understan...
The manipulation of the genome to study disease, evaluate drug targets and to stratify patient populations is now a widely accepted concept in the field. At Horizon Discovery, genome engineer...
Actin cytoskeleton drives cell migration in muscle and non-muscle cells and plays a major role in such diverse processes as tissue morphogenesis, muscle contraction, and cancer metastases. In...
Einstein researcher Robert Singer, Ph.D., discusses a breakthrough in microscopy that is allowing scientists to track messenger RNA in living cells in real time. The study, published in the S...
A fundamental question in neuronal development is how growth cone cytoskeletal dynamics are coordinated to promote accurate axonal navigation. To address this question, we focus on microtubul...
Plant viruses cause significant damage in terms of reduction in quality and quantity of yield in a wide range of crop plants worldwide. The majority of plant viruses are transmitted from one...
Clinical microbiology has experienced an unprecedented wave of innovation due to the introduction of advanced testing such as PCR, MALDI-TOF, and PNA-FISH. The wave of new technologies...
Genome sequencing can be used to discover new pathogens but it can also be used to monitor known ones. This is known as genomic surveillance and it becoming an increasingly important tool in...
