Small Molecule: Within the fields of molecular biology and pharmacology, a small molecule is a low molecular weight organic compound that may regulate a biological process, with a size on the order of 1 nm. Most drugs are small molecules.
Biofilm is an ancient and preferred mode of growth for microbes with 99% of all microbes residing in a biofilm. Biofilm is characterized by a community of microbes (usually polymicrobial ofte...
Respiratory viral infections remain a leading cause of medical visits and can contribute significantly to morbidity and mortality. Influenza, together with pneumonia, is the leading infectio...
The world–as microbes perceive it–is composed of physical and chemical stimuli. These stimuli create conditions that result in life or death for microbes, affecting their survival...
The Pharmaceutical Industry has a diverse set of products all with varying level of microbial risk to patients. On the low risk extreme there are topical pharmaceuticals on the other extreme...
DNASTAR offers an integrated suite of software for accurate assembly and analysis of sequence data for key NGS workflows, including microbial genome assembly. The DNASTAR assembly software is...
Polyamines are small, mostly linear organic molecules found in almost all living cells, and are positively charged at physiological pH. As a consequence of their positive charge, polyamines b...
Advances in sequencing technology and increasing recognition of the importance of our microbial world have led to unprecedented discoveries in recent years with respect to the human microbiom...
Rapid advances in sequencing technology and spectroscopy have led to new measurements of the microbiome. Labs make choices based on their environment of interest and the questions they wish t...
The human race, like all macrobiological life, evolved in a sea of microbes. There was no way to keep the bacterial and archaeal hoards at bay, so instead life evolved mechanisms to live with...
This presentation will discuss fundamental physical, chemical, and biological concepts important to understanding control of detrimental biofilms. Four phenomena that are important in the act...
Among many surprising insights, the genomic revolution has helped us to realize that we're never alone and, in fact, barely human. For most of our lives, we share our bodies with some ten ti...
Human microbiome projects have delivered our first glimpse into the microbial communities that reside in and on our bodies. Building on these efforts the research community has begun to corre...
Managing microbial contaminants is critical during the manufacturing of biologics, food and beverage to ensure that products meet the high quality product standard as well as staying complian...
Exosomes are small secreted vesicles that have a diameter of ~50-200 nm. Exosomes are enriched for a specific subset of host-derived proteins, nucleic acids, lipids and carbohydrates, though ...
Date: Tuesday, April 7th, 2015Time: 8:30AM PST, 11:30AM EST, 5:30PM CETThe development of new medicines for Diabetes Type 2 complications has proven to be challenging due to the use of cell...
 Single-cell analysis is one of the most rapidly growing fields in biomedical research that is significantly expanding our understanding on the biologic characteristics of various diseases. F...
Advances in genomic research have led to identification of the majority of the drivers of tumor progression. However, our understanding of the molecular mechanisms propelling tumor growth is...
The era of omics has ushered in the hope for personalized medicine. Proteomic and genomic strategies that allow unbiased identification of genes and proteins and their post-transcriptional a...
The TLA Technology constitutes a paradigm shift in targeted next generation sequencing (NGS). The TLA technology uses the physical proximity of nucleotides within a locus of interest as the b...
 Equine anti-doping analysis is a changing and dynamic field of science. The constant introduction of new drugs and biopharmaceuticals present challenges to the integrity of sports. Anti-dopi...
Protein-protein interactions and allosterically regulated enzymes have been challenging but important targets for probe- and drug discovery. We and others have found that fragment-based lead...
Master regulatory transcription factors localize to the genome in a manner influenced by chromatin accessibility and influencing global chromatin structure. With an interest in understanding...
Professor Stockwell will discuss the discovery of ferroptosis, a novel model of regulated but non-apoptotic cell death. He will describe how some tumors are sensitized to ferroptosis and may...
The ever-quickening pace of breathtaking advances in our understanding of disease biology has implicitly promised a profusion of drugs that will dramatically improve human health and well-bei...
