University: is an institution of higher education and research which awards academic degrees. Universities typically provide undergraduate education and postgraduate education.
Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) uses a stand-displacing DNA polymerase and four to six primers to rapidly amplify DNA at a single temperature. By eliminating temperature cyclin...
Revolutionary sequencing technologies are enabling whole transcriptome profiling of tens to hundreds of thousands of single cells in parallel, in a single experiment. This has led to an expl...
Learning Objectives: 1. Discuss the potential for newborn screening by whole genome sequencing. 2. Review the current evidence for the sensitivity and specificity of newborn screening by who...
While early genetic diagnosis can guide critical care management, the turnaround time for whole genome based diagnostic testing is months. Recent programs in neonatal populations have reduce...
Target enrichment workflows for Next Generation Sequencing are well-established methods that enable labs to achieve relatively low sequencing costs by specifically sequencing regions of inte...
Pathogen detection and surveillance have become a high priority in both healthcare and environmental settings for the safety of patients and the general public. The COVID-19 pandemic highlig...
Infectious disease monitoring on Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) platforms offers rapid turnaround times and low cost. Tracking low frequency intra-host variants provides important insigh...
Recurrently emerging SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern (VOC) present increasingly sophisticated immune escape strategies that fuel global infection rates, as exemplified by the raging B.1.1.529...
The human genome encodes 25,000 genes. But the biological complexity inherent in polygenic traits is a clear sign that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Genes, gene products, a...
The CYP2D6 enzyme metabolizes approximately 25% of commonly used pharmaceuticals and is of intense pharmacogenetic interest. Polymorphisms in CYP2D6 can alter an individual’s response...

The vast structural diversity of proteins is responsible for their functional versatility, but also makes their expression and purification a demanding task. Tagging proteins with affinity t...
Learning Objectives: 1. Explain what is gene therapy is. 2. Explain what steps are involved for getting a gene therapy product to the clinic. 3. Discuss development and manufacturing process...
There is growing interest in the development of integrated continuous bioprocesses for the production of important biotherapeutics due to the potential for enhanced productivity, greater fle...
Date: April 06, 2022 Time: 9:00am (PDT), 12:00pm (EDT), 6:00pm (CEDT) Digital PCR is a specialized tool for nucleic acid quantification which has applications in many research areas includin...
Currently over 95 % of pharmaceutical products and transport fuels are derived from petroleum. Sustainable alternatives are critical to achieving net-zero emissions without detriment to qual...
The application of modeling tools to better understand and control bioprocess development and manufacturing has become a hot topic within the last few years. However, what do we actually nee...
Viral Vector gene therapy has been the focus of intense research driven by the safety profile and several clinical breakthroughs. As of March 2022, there are two viral vector gene therapies...
The design, optimization and troubleshooting of industrial bioprocesses are still largely based on empirical knowledge. Thus, the goal and motivation is to base these processes on a comprehe...
Biopharmaceuticals produced with mammalian cells are the key drivers for the medication of former untreatable diseases. The development of their production processes is still challenging bec...
