Stay informed on developments in cancer and oncology diagnosis, prevention and treatment through these curated webinars. As the race toward a cure for cancer continues, advances in cancer research are constantly revealed as innovation in the field of oncology progresses.
There are currently several different FDA approved radiopharmaceuticals being used in both large academic and small practice settings to accurately stage and identify local and metastatic pr...
There are known outcome disparities between Black and White patients with pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNETs). Multiple retrospective series have found that Black patients have more adv...
Gene regulatory networks are representations of the relationship between transcription factors and their target genes. By modeling gene regulatory networks, it is possible to identify change...
Prostate cancer (PCa) affects one in nine men and is the most diagnosed solid tumor cancer among men in the United States. The introduction of the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) biomarker b...
The majority of disease-associated genetic variants are thought to have regulatory effects, including disruption of transcription factor (TF) binding and alteration of downstream gene expres...
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...
We started our experience with prostate cancer in 2002 with primitive robotic platforms. Our main goal was to provide an alternative to open and laparoscopic surgery....
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...
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 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,...
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...
COSMIC is the world’s largest and most comprehensive somatic mutations resource. COSMIC’s contents are manually curated by PhD-level experts from high-quality scientific literatu...
One of the central tenets of biology is that our genetics—our genotype—influences the physical characteristics we manifest—our phenotype. But with more than 25,000 human ge...
Competing to offer a comprehensive genomic profiling service for solid or hematology oncology tumor samples is challenging, especially as panels increase in size and complexity. QIAGEN Clini...
Reliable expression of recombinant proteins in human, CHO, or insect cells is essential for many aspects of biomedical research and drug development, but is often hampered by low expression...
The tumor-associated microbiota is an inherent component of the tumor microenvironment across various human cancer types1. Although members of tumor-associated microbiomes can be identified...
Conventional imaging studies such as ultrasound, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging are increasingly detecting small renal masses, which are interpreted by radiologists as h...
The elegant and well-orchestrated molecular players responsible for normal neurodevelopment harbor the capacity for detrimental repercussions if mis-expressed at the wrong time, or in the wr...
Successful cancer patient advocacy has many components. Patients and survivors are in the best position to tell their stories and advocate for better care and treatment. However, with few su...
Genomic analysis of cancer cells revealed comprehensive mechanism of tumorigenesis in human patients. Among the abnormalities discovered so far, CNVs accounted for a great portion of all the...
Learning Objectives 1. Discuss Neoantigen Mechanisms: Gain a comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms by which neoantigens are generated and recognized by the immune system, including t...
De novo gene synthesis and protein expression are established technologies that can give access to nearly any target DNA or protein sequence, allowing for engineering of biologics. In this p...
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) allows the simultaneous analysis of multiple genomic alterations with therapeutic implications, paving the way for precision medicine and transforming cancer...
Cancer neoantigens arise from protein-altering somatic mutations in tumor and rank among the most promising next-generation immuno-oncology agents when used in combination with immune checkp...
The upcoming webinar series will focus on the latest innovations in PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) applications, one of the most versatile and widely used techniques in molecular biology. O...
There are currently several different FDA approved radiopharmaceuticals being used in both large academic and small practice settings to accurately stage and identify local and metastatic pr...
