Welcome to this exciting webinar: Optimize your PCR, where we will delve into the intricacies of this powerful molecular biology technique. Our speaker, Gabriel Almeida Alves, BSN, MS, PhD,...
Are you working for your data or are your data working for you? Over the last decade or so, labs have made the move from paper lab notebooks to digital laboratory platforms (DLPs). This is a...
The Instrumentation Group at the BC Cancer Agency’s Genome Sciences Centre (GSC) is unusual in having an engineering group and extensive prototyping facilities embedded in a biomedical...
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...
Join this panel discussion with two prominent researchers in the Open Bioeconomy Lab at the University of Cambridge to hear about their work in building foundational tools for synthetic biol...
Digital Droplet PCR (ddPCR) is a method for performing digital PCR use microfluidic water-oil emulsion technology. By utilizing microfluidics and fractionating DNA samples into nanoliter dro...
I will discuss three novel technologies that our laboratory has developed in recent years. In the first part of the talk, I will describe our work on engineering variants of the RNA-guided en...
The miniaturized total chemical analysis system has been successfully repurposed over the past twenty years or so for engineering cellular microenvironments which more faithfully mimic in viv...
A hardware architecture was developed specifically to facilitate collaborative development and dissemination of microfluidic experiments. Modular pressure regulators, incubators, and chip-to-...
Many commercially promising proteins are difficult-to-express (DTE) in living cells and are lost before an industrial production process can be established. Cell-free protein expression (CFP...
Join this year's poster presenters in the Poster Hall during the Poster Networking Hour, Wednesday, November 1st, from 10:00 AM –11:00 AM PDT , to chat live about their posters and...
Point‑of‑care testing is the future of diagnostic solutions. Point‑of‑care testing is robust, easy to use, and provides immediate results and thus, allows treatment decisions to be made more...
Regulated laboratories must comply with numerous quality requirements that are put in place by regulatory agencies to ensure that accurate data is being generated and reported. The vast majo...
Cell and gene therapies, such as chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapies (CAR-T), have led to some miraculous cures that are transforming the clinical landscape for treating certain types...
DNA vaccines have emerged as a promising technology for developing COVID-19 vaccines due to their ability to be quickly designed and manufactured after obtaining the pathogen or cancer antig...
During my research career I have worked to further understanding of how intracellular organisation changes in response to the needs and environment of the living cell, focusing on the regula...
From gene cloning and initial clone selection through to final cell evaluation, the continual assessment of cell count and viability is important for determining the best growing and highest...
The field of gene therapy has enabled the treatment and potential cures for serious, monogenetic diseases. This form of advanced therapy relies on the delivery of the “correct” c...
