Advances in cell and molecular biology have catapulted our understanding of the science of life from the basic understanding of how cells and the components of cells interact within living organisms. Remain up to date on recent discoveries and revelations through these webinars.
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are well-known for their detrimental effects leading to oxidative stress, cell death, aging, and degenerative disorders. However, there is increasing evidence t...
CRISPR experiments are a powerful tool which are easy to carry out, however it is more difficult to determine the outcome of these experiments, and to ensure that only the desired targets we...
The availability of well-characterised monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) detecting cell-surface epitopes on human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) provides useful research tools to investigate the c...
Lowe Syndrome (LS) is a devastating genetic disease characterized by abnormalities in the eyes, brain and kidneys that unfortunately leads to the premature death of affected children due to r...
MicroRNAs (miRs) are small non-coding RNAs whose expression is altered in several types of human cancers. Recent evidence supports their inter-cellular transfer through extracellular vesicle...
Regenerative medicine therapeutics aimed at restoring normal cell function due to trauma and disease are gaining increasing momentum in clinical trials. For this purpose, lentivirus-based gen...
Since 1993, Gibco™ B-27™ Supplement and Neurobasal™ Medium has been the trusted standard for a variety of neuronal culture applications, with citations in more than 11,000 p...
The success of immune checkpoint blockade adds a new therapeutic category to the cancer therapy repertoire. Despite efforts made on cancer cell and immune cell interaction, how cancer cells i...
The use of biologic-based therapeutics has revolutionized our ability to treat complex diseases such as cancer- and autoimmune-related disorders. Biologic-based therapeutics are known to gen...
α-synuclein (-syn) is a small presynaptic protein linked to the pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease (PD) and related disorders, collectively called synucleinopathies. Phosphoryl...
Deriving deeper biological insight & improving productivity in immune-cell biologyThe most common in vitro methods for immunologists to analyze cells of the immune system are flow cyt...
The majority of patients with advanced NSCLC do not respond to monotherapy with PD-1 axis inhibition, and more robust predictive biomarkers are needed. In this study, we assessed tumor sampl...
Vaccines have played a major role in protecting human health as one of the key means of controlling infectious diseases. More than 20 high-risk diseases can be currently prevented through va...
Neuroinflammation has been implicated as a factor in alcohol-induced neurodegeneration, but the role of the neuroimmune system in alcohol consumption has only recently come to the forefront....
Microtubule plus-end tracking proteins (+TIPs) play key roles in the regulation of microtubule dynamics in vivo. These proteins bind to and regulate microtubule “plus‐ends”, whic...
I will present my lab’s effort on studying and manipulating RNA processing, with particular emphasis on using CRISPR/Cas systems for targeting RNA in living cells in diseases such as my...
Thinking about a starting a job search? Join us to listen to some tips to help you prepare for starting a successful career/job search. Topics covered: Resume Writing tips, Preparing fo...
The exponential advents of advances in techniques and types of molecular diagnostic testing, and modifying strategies for these tests, are encouraging; but these evolutions simultaneously con...
Heterotetrameric adaptor protein (AP) complexes play key roles in protein sorting and transport vesicle formation in the endomembrane system of eukaryotic cells. One of these complexes, AP-4...
After a brief definition of terms (what are bioplastics?), this lecture will discuss various material and application examples for biobased and/or biodegradable plastics. An overview on the...
On measuring photons and ions: Impact on panel design, signal detection and data quality 10:30–11:00 am PDT Presented By: Tim Bushnell, PhD, MBA Monitoring immunotherapy with a mass cy...
Extracellular ligands bind to receptors on the cell surface leading to receptor internalization. Once internalized into small vesicles, the vesicles fuse with an organelle known as the sorti...
For more than a century, breakthroughs in biological sciences have relied on the ability to study cells outside of respective organisms. While majority of cell culturing is still performed u...
Checkpoint blockade therapy for cancer has had tremendous impact on clinical outcomes, yet only a subset of patients respond. Recent studies show that response to checkpoint blockade does not...
Tumor phenotypes are dictated not only by the neoplastic cell component, but also by the tumor microenvironment (TME), which is inherently immuno-suppressive, is equipped to hamper effector...
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are lipid bilayer-delimited pieces of cells that are released from the plasma membrane as "ectosomes" and from the endosomal system as "exosomes.&...
Date: September 16, 2021 Time: 8:00am (PDT), 11:00am (EDT) Rapid screening and speed of scale-up in protein therapeutics are critical factors in today’s biotech and pharma workflows. T...
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are well-known for their detrimental effects leading to oxidative stress, cell death, aging, and degenerative disorders. However, there is increasing evidence t...
