Malaria is a life-threatening disease that is caused by unicellular eukaryotic parasites of the genus Plasmodium, with P. falciparum being responsible for the most severe form of human malar...
The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is one of the most common techniques performed in both research and clinical laboratories to detect the molecules of interest in fluid samples....
Image manipulation scandals and tightening journal guidelines have put traditional Western blots under a spotlight: every manual step—from gel casting to image export—adds variab...
The COVID-19 pandemic has taken a dramatic toll worldwide. Its impact possibly has been the most palpable amongst uniquely vulnerable groups of patients, such as patients with a cancer diagn...
As viral threats continue to emerge, viral detection assays are important not only for recognizing if a virus is present, but also for surveillance and variant characterization. Accurate det...
Open Targets is a public-private partnership made up of four global leading institutions in the fields of pharmaceuticals, bioinformatics and genomics, GSK, EMBL-EBI, the Wellcome Trust Sange...
Arrayed gene knockout (KO) libraries represent a valuable resource for performing functional genomics screening. Current generation arrayed KO libraries for the whole human genome rely on eit...
Access this training to learn more about different techniques that can be used for successful colony selection and passage of induced pluripotent stem cells....
Background: Despite the immunogenicity and safety profile of dendritic cell (DC) vaccines, the importance of vaccine-induced antigen-specific T cell responses is unclear across clinical tria...
Interest in cell and gene therapy-based disease prevention and treatment has increased rapidly over the last few decades, however there are still many hurdles to overcome and further progres...
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. Identify 3 obstacles that inhibit the immune cell response to cancer. 2. List 3 aspects of T cells antitumor function that can be improved with costimulatory signals....
With over 265,000 new cases per year and over 50,000 deaths, breast and ovarian cancers represent a significant health burden in the USA. Prior work has demonstrated that CD4 helper T c...
The ability of single-cell RNA-Seq (scRNA-Seq) to measure the transcriptional basis of heterogeneity between individual cells is transforming biomedical research. It enables the precise &lsq...
Gene therapy is defined as the treatment of disease by transfer of genetic material into cells, to prevent, treat and potentially even cure a disease. Gene therapies can work by several mech...
Historically the analysis and study of cannabis and cannabis-related molecules has been challenging because of their collective legal status. With the passage of the 2018 Farm Bill, at least...
Cannabis prohibition has been prevalent since the 1930’s and has had a dramatic negative impact on patients, veterans and small business owners. As a small business owner serving patien...
Mitochondrial defects represent a common pathogenetic mechanism associated with neurodegeneration. At the same time, mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations frequently cause neurological diseases...
Clathrin mediated endocytosis (CME) at pre-synaptic terminals is functionally coupled to neuro-transmitter release. Like other cytosolic proteins, clathrin is synthesized in cell-bodies and c...
Genomic profiling of liquid biopsies is no longer an emerging area of clinical research, but quickly becoming translated as part of contemporary clinical trials for potential future use in t...
Most currently used conventional influenza vaccines are based on 1940s technology. Advances in immunogen design and vaccine delivery emerging over the last decade open novel opportunities fo...
Over the past 6 years, a number of agents, all mechanistically different, have been approved with a statistically significant survival benefit as monotherapy for treatment of metastatic castr...
Sexually transmitted diseases remain a major global public health burden despite the availability of effective prevention strategies to diagnose and treat bacterial STDs. Concerning tre...
