Infant motor development is measured clinically using short, subjective, observational scales. While these scales are useful, they have limitations. They provide us with a “snapshot&rd...
The Brain Behavior Quantification and Synchronization (BBQS) program is a basic research effort in the NIH BRAIN Initiative to develop new tools and approaches in support of a more comprehen...
This talk will present the methodology of using the guided ultrasonic waves generated by the rodent to track its physiology, behavior, and psychological state. When behaving in an environmen...
A central goal for neuroscience is to understand how our brains process information in real life, such as faces during natural social interactions. While we have gained important knowledge u...
The ability to record every spike from every neuron in a behaving animal is one of the holy grails of neuroscience. Here, Alison Hanson discusses a collaborative effort aimed at coming one s...
Behaving animals continually reconcile the internal states of their neural circuits brain-wide with incoming sensory and environmental evidence to evaluate when and how to act. The brains of...
To make movement and foraging decisions in a naturalistic environment, multiple neural populations must work synergistically to produce successful actions. These decisions span multiple scal...
Virginia will discuss work on single-trial analysis of EEG signals during episodic memory tasks. They develop single-trial classifiers to predict whether people will remember pictures from E...
The ultimate goal of neuroscience is to understand and explain real-world behavior in terms of brain activity, and to use these insights to develop therapeutic approaches for neural disorder...
Vestibular sensation anchors our perception of the environment and is crucial for maintaining balance during locomotion. Vertebrate animals use the evolutionarily conserved vestibular system...
Robots are useful tools for studying the nervous system and its control of body mechanics because they can be used to perform experiments that would be difficult to perform with an animal. F...
Social interactions are essential for the survival of social animals. Across species the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) has been identified as a hub of social cognition. In mouse models we...
Drug discovery programs require a robust panel of models and assays to identify and validate drug targets, support compound optimisation, and run mechanistic studies. Fully human in vitro mo...
Thomas Scientific's Cannabis Specialists demonstrates how to leverage vendor consolidation ultimately saving you time & money in today's supply chain challenged climate....
In recent years, small volume biopsies have been increasingly utilized for diagnosis of tumors in both primary and recurrent settings. Concomitantly, the numbers of ancillary studies for cha...
Microscopy involves the study of organisms too small to see with the naked eye, magnifying the small worlds within our own so we can study and understand these samples. Organs, tissues and c...
Dr. Christopher E. Mason Professor of Genomics, Physiology, and Biophysics at Weill Cornell Medicine and the Director of the WorldQuant Initiative for Quantitative Prediction Digital PCR for...
10:00am PT, 12:00pm CT, 1:00pm ET: Welcome 10:15am PT, 12:15pm CT, 1:15pm ET: Digital PCR for minimal residual disease research and cancer research Dr. Christopher E. Mason Professor of Geno...

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...
How can labs increase their sample throughput and pipetting accuracy and reproducibility without investing in an expensive automated liquid handler? Electronic pipettes are a cost-effective...
mRNA‑based products are rapidly growing in the biotherapeutics space. Important considerations need to be made to develop a process for mRNA synthesis that consistently generates high‑yield...
Surface plasmon resonance is a real-time and label-free technique that offers low sample consumption and high throughput when compared to other biophysical techniques and has been widely ado...
Background and aim: G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are vital membrane proteins involved in cellular and physiological processes, including sensory perception, signaling, neurotransmissi...
Traditional liver perfusion procedures – used to isolate hepatocytes – are difficult to perform and require extensive training, steady hands and long-standing experience. In this...
Interoceptive signals dynamically interact with the environment to shape appropriate defensive behaviors. Neurons in the hypothalamus regulate internal states, such as thirst and circadian r...
This presentation explores the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of β-lactam antibiotic dosing, particularly in ICU patients. To optimize PK/PD targets, two strategies are...
