This compilation of webinars touch on the various human diseases are most commonly attributed to the subject matter of microbiology, as well as the many microbes that are also responsible for numerous beneficial processes.
RNA viruses use a variety of interactions with host proteins to gain entry, to evade immune responses, to promote viral replication, and to promote viral egress and spread. These interaction...
Traditional hybridoma and phage display methods have failed to yield therapeutic antibodies against difficult targets like most GPCRs and ion channels. This presentation will introduce Berke...
The regions of our genome responsible for encoding the genes that regulate our immune response are some of the most complex and polymorphic known. This complexity encompasses multiple types...
Prompt and early diagnosis of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) is important to enable appropriate treatment and help prevent further transmission....
Learning Objectives 1. Understand the life cycle of the malaria causing parasite, Plasmodium 2. Understand new approaches to identifying host regulators of infection 3. Describe advantages a...
The arenaviruses are an important group of pathogens that includes several agents of severe human disease, with symptoms that include hemorrhagic fever and neurological complications; howeve...
Gene Synthesis ensures fast access to nearly any DNA sequence, regardless of its origin or complexity. Its reliability, flexibility and fast turnaround time offer a clear advantage over trad...
Over 80% of opportunistic infections in humans are caused by microbial biofilms. Traditional methods of study for these infections have focused on single species yet there is a wealth of evi...
Health economists are great at calculating a value-based price for diagnostic tests. Given the unexpected supply and demand for SARS-CoV-2 tests during the pandemic, efficient allocation of...
Curious about how engineered polymerases are transforming the landscape of infectious disease diagnostics? Our speaker, Dr. Maja Studencka-Turski, will guide you through a comprehensive disc...
Shifting from or supplementing traditional cultures by offering PCR infectious disease testing can be challenging for a laboratory. The addition of this testing is not just a change for the l...
1. Identify the basic characteristics of the vaginal microbiota 2. Identify some ways in which the vaginal microbiota may protect against acquisition of sexually transmitted and urogenital i...
The effect of long-term mixed-waste contamination, particularly uranium and nitrate, on the microbial community in the terrestrial subsurface at the Oak Ridge Integrated Field Research Chall...
Research on decomposition odor has evolved significantly since the first introduction of this concept in the literature in 2004. This work is foundational to understanding several areas of f...
Many clinically approved drugs that are prescribed to modulate human physiology are also potent antimicrobials at physiological concentrations. Recent systematic studies indicate that bacter...
Trauma such as burn continues to be a major cause of morbidity and mortality in the United States. Gut barrier dysfunction is often implicated in post trauma complications. Intoxication at t...
A study of microbiome structure and function associated with plants roots will be presented. the study showed that the microbiome structure is determined by the plant type, with root microbi...
In recent past respiratory seasons, the world witnessed a “tripledemic” of Influenza (flu), SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19), and Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV). In this presentation, I...
The formation of marine snow is an important part of the biological carbon pump as carbon is exported to depth. These particles are composed of cells, minerals, and other sources of organic...
The COVID-19 pandemic has underlined the need for an efficient collaboration between scientists, policy makers and the general public to tackle the crisis. Infectious disease experts play a...
The evolution of the planetary situation is presently knowing multiple rapid and severe complications impacting both geophysical as well as all the life aspects. Multiple parameters undergo...
Antibiotic treatment failure poses a burden on global public health systems. Bacteria can acquire mutations and extrachromosomal genes that allow them to be resistant to our existing drugs....
Alphaviruses are enveloped RNA viruses that cause disease in humans ranging from acute febrile illness with rash and arthritis to lethal encephalitis. Like many other mosquito-borne viruses,...
Critical in control of this pandemic is the ability to rapidly identify infectious individuals prior to their ability to infect others. With the introduction of better testing capacity and a...
Human respiratory syncytial virus (hRSV) is a significant cause of lower respiratory tract infections in children under the age of 5, the elderly, and immunocompromised individuals, leading...
The ongoing surge of clade 2.3.4.4b H5N1 viruses in avian species has resulted in numerous spillover events into mammalian species including dairy cows and humans, posing a potential pandemi...
Researchers are increasingly turning to RNA sequencing for gene expression analysis from challenging samples. These samples often include fine needle biopsies, micro-dissected tumors or high...
RNA viruses use a variety of interactions with host proteins to gain entry, to evade immune responses, to promote viral replication, and to promote viral egress and spread. These interaction...
