Molecular modelling lies somewhere between theory, observation and experiment and is being called the fourth axis of chemistry. Basing on theoretical chemistry methods and experimental data, it involves a range of computerized methods or techniques to predict molecular and biological properties.
Tissues in the body are wonderfully organized, with specific arrangements of cells, extracellular matrix, secreted molecules, and fluid flow that synergize that create emergent functions. How...
In 2014, the Undiagnosed Diseases Network (UDN), which is funded by the NIH, was established as a network of seven clinical sites, two sequencing cores, and a coordinating center. Later, a ce...
The advent of precision medicine largely depends on the creation of precise and accurate predictive tools. While most late-onset diseases are moderately to highly heritable, using genetic inf...
One of the central tenants of biology is that our genetics—our genotype—influences the physical characteristics we manifest—our phenotype. But with more than 25,000 human ge...
Genetic drivers of cancer can be dysregulated through epigenetic modifications of DNA. Although the critical role of DNA 5-methylcytosine (5mC) in the regulation of transcription is recognize...
Over the past 25 years many advances in techniques have been incorporated into infectious disease research. From genetically modified animals to advances in basic techniques that improve res...
Tuberculosis has killed more than one billion people in the last 200 years. It is the oldest and the deadliest human pathogen, recently surpassing HIV. Its adaptation to host and drug pressur...
Recent evidence indicates that the immunoglobulin (IG) gene loci reside within the most complex and variable regions of the human genome, characterized by elevated levels of single nucleotide...
Point-of-care testing (POCT) is diagnostic testing at the time and place of patient care in a physician’s office, an ambulance, a mobile clinic, at home or in hospital. Rapid POC testi...
