The use of prescription and/or unregulated opioids increases a person's risk of experiencing respiratory depression and fatal overdose. Some people are at higher risk of experiencing res...
Get to know Luminex’s xMAP® Technology all over again. For 27 years, xMAP Technology has become known as the worldwide leader in bead-based multiplexing. With the new xMAP INTELLIF...
Antibody-based cancer therapies have clear advantages over chemotherapeutic drugs thanks to their high specificity and low risk of side effects. However, it can be difficult to identify targ...
Effective locomotion in nature happens by transitioning between multiple modes (e.g., walk, run, climb, slither). Despite this, far more mechanistic understanding of terrestrial locomotion h...
Mass spectrometry-based proteomics methods are finding increasing use in structural biology research. Beyond simple interaction networks, information about stable protein-protein, protein-li...
The vaginal microbiome is a critical component of female health. More than 30% of people with vaginas suffer from imbalances in the microbiome (e.g. bacterial vaginosis, yeast infections, an...
Neural networks are a powerful tool for modeling neural activity in the brain. In this talk, I will discuss how these models have helped in my own research and highlight recent work building...
Learning Objectives: 1. Explain how obesity impacts the survival of pediatric patients with specific subtypes of leukemia. 2. Describe how obesity impacts T-cell function in pediatric popula...
Acute cough is one of the most common reasons for consulting in primary care thus driving considerable antibiotic use and health-care costs. Currently, identification of microbial etiology i...
Neutrophils are the most abundant immune cells in human blood and are crucial for host defense against bacterial and fungal infections. Neutrophils are made mainly in the bone marrow from wh...
In real-world evidence (RWE), temporal shifts in clinical knowledge and practice need to be adjusted for treatment effect assessment. We use electronic health records (EHR) data to 1) assess...
Altered enteric microorganisms in concert with host genetics shape inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) phenotypes. However, insight is limited to bacteria and fungi. We found that eukaryotic vi...
At Biogen Idec, we have implemented a 3 part innovation operating model which includes innovation mentoring, agile experimentation and transition of experiments into pilots. In this presenta...
Next generation genomics technology is playing a significant role in improving the outcomes of genomic tools used in livestock farming, cultivation of crops, selection of quality seeds with...
Technologies that enable intraoperative tissue analysis and diagnosis are critically needed to guide surgical procedures and improve patient outcomes. Here we demonstrate the MasSpec Pen tec...
Over 80% of opportunistic infections in humans are caused by microbial biofilms. Traditional methods of study for these infections have focused on single species yet there is a wealth of evi...
Accurate prediction of CYP2D6 activity from genotype data is of utmost importance as CYP2D6 pharmacogenetic (PGx) testing is increasingly used to guide drug therapy. However, given the compl...
Join us for Symposium closing remarks, with a presentation by William May, Chairman of the Board, and appreciation award to Craig Gatto, PhD for his years of service on the Beckman Scholars...
CRISPR has revolutionized the biosciences over the past decade. The RNA-targeting CRISPR effector protein Cas13, discovered in 2016, opened up a myriad of new applications for CRISPR-based t...
Interference in laboratory assays is a concern since it can positively or negatively influence test results, which can affect patient care. Interferents could be endogenous or exogenous comp...
Gene Synthesis ensures fast access to nearly any DNA sequence, regardless of its origin or complexity. Its reliability, flexibility and fast turnaround time offer a clear advantage over trad...
The increasing quantity and quality of spatially resolved omics data provide a unique opportunity to explore the complex molecular mechanisms that take place in biological systems. However,...
Effective cellular therapies for solid tumors remain elusive. Advances in gene editing and synthetic biology offer great potential for improving the safety and functionality of engineered ce...
The Irvine CubeSat STEM Program (ICSP) is a collaboration between Irvine Public Schools Foundation, and Irvine and Tustin Unified school districts that provides teams of students from all si...
Since 2008, when the synthetic cannabinoid receptor agonists (SCRAs) JWH-018 and CP47,497 were first detected, a total of over 200 SCRAs have now been reported worldwide. Whilst the drivers...
