Hawaiʻi is one of Earth’s most beautiful, yet plastic polluted, marine environments. This presentation will provide an overview of microplastic research in Hawaiian beach sand, sea tur...
Point-of-care testing (POCT) is destined to play a much greater role in chronic disease diagnosis and management. Advanced POCT systems are being developed to deliver less costly and more ac...
Screening for cervical cancer represents one of the greatest successes achieved in disease prevention. Cytology has been central to cervical cancer screening programs for over 50 years and ha...
As we look towards data to help generate insight and analytics across the entire drug discovery value chain, learn how interconnected data is from the various stages of preclinical, clinical,...
Infectious diseases, such as COVID-19, are challenging to study in animal models due to species differences, and conventional 2D cell-based systems lack the complexity to appropriately model...
Technological advances have made genomic sequencing more affordable, efficient, and available. Questions related to the implementation and effects of large-scale sequencing in healthcare have...
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...
Cannabidiol (CBD) has emerged as a promising anti-epileptic drug in otherwise treatment-resistant genetic epileptic disorders. However, the clinical trials have been limited by their use of C...
Cases and deaths continue to increase steadily in most states. The pace of increase is faster than we expected, leading us to revise upward IHME forecast of deaths and cases into the future....
Long read Structural Variation calling remains a challenging but highly accurate way to identify complex genomic alterations. To address this challenge, we developed Sniffles2, a successor t...
Cannabis falls into a number of categories such as medicine, recreational drug, food source, and fiber, but it is first and foremost an agricultural crop. As such, Cannabis is subject to tre...
Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells are the most widely used cells for producing biopharmaceuticals. Engineering gene expression in CHO is key to improving drug quality and affordability. Howe...
Chromatography is the first choice in separation technique for a wide selection of applications, across many fields, ranging from simple to highly complex extracts. The main rationale for it...
Today there are about 7B mobile phone worldwide and about 50,000 mobile health applications actively changing the landscape of how healthcare will be delivered in the next years. While numero...
Rob Dunn has recently published Never Out of Season, the story of the homogenization of our global food supply and the risks that homogenization poses. He will build on the stories from this...
The integration of next-generation sequencing (NGS) tests into clinical laboratory practice across medical disciplines provides medically actionable data that in some cases are not otherwise...
Working memory (the ability to hold some information in mind for a few seconds, and to manipulate that information) and decision-making (committing to one out of multiple possible choices) a...
Hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine are long-standing antimalarial drugs recently brought into the spotlight as potential treatments for the pandemic-causing coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2). Notable...
Nucleotide variation in gene regulatory elements is a major cause of human disease. Despite continual progress in the cataloging of these elements, little is known about the code and grammati...
The commercialization of micro and nanofluidic devices has had promise for providing novel solutions to deliver high throughput, more efficient, integrated biological and chemical analysis to...
Modern biomedical research is being driven by large scale genetic and proteomic research to identify new targets for the study of disease mechanisms. While these techniques have been incredi...
For optimal use of human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) it is essential to identify lines that are fully reprogrammed and of high quality with proven pluripotency in terms of differe...
Thermo Fisher Scientific has developed an advanced assay to qualify FBS for use with ESCs. This assay is designed to sustain undifferentiated ES cells while maintaining karyotype integr...
The field of infectious disease diagnostics is ever changing with both newly identified infections such as SARS, Ebola, and Zika virus as well as yearly epidemics and potential for pandemic w...
Using Hebbian as well as homeostatic models of brain plasticity, the effects of neurofeedback (NFB) are examined from the theoretical perspective of EEG normalization. Within this framework,...
Although there have been enormous advances in gene sequencing, the results give massive amounts of data that only point to disease risk. Major health factors, including diet, lifestyle, envir...
