Biology: the study of living organisms, divided into many specialized fields that cover their morphology, physiology, anatomy, behavior, origin, and distribution. This includes plants, animals, and other qualities of organisms or class of organisms.
Liquid chromatography high resolution time-of-flight mass spectrometry (LC-TOF-MS) is becoming increasingly popular in the clinical research laboratory. It can offer higher throughput and sup...
The recent Zika virus outbreak highlights the need for low-cost diagnostics that can be rapidly developed for distribution and use in pandemic regions. In early 2016 we developed a pipe...
Fusion genes are hybrid genes formed by the fusion of two separate genes. Translocation, interstitial deletion and chromosomal inversions are some of the genetic events that can lead to the f...
Core or central laboratory are facing several challenges. First, the management and operations of a successful modern laboratory is a real complex exercise, with multiple pre- and post-analyt...
Today there are about 7B mobile phone worldwide and about 50,000 mobile health applications actively changing the landscape of how healthcare will be delivered in the next years. While numero...
Vitamin D3 supplementation can effectively remedy the current epidemic of vitamin D deficiency, especially within the African-American population and the elderly of any ethnicity. Racial disp...

Tumors often evade immune destruction by adapting and circumventing immune checkpoints to create resistance. This adaptive immunity can be reversed to stimulate the endogenous immune re...
New generations of treatments successfully target cancer cell signaling and modulate anti-cancer immunity to improve outcomes for advanced-stage malignancies. Such clinical responses are gove...
The immune system is capable of recognizing tumors and eliminates many early malignant cells. However, tumors evolve to evade immune attack, and the tumor microenvironment is immunosuppressiv...
Intra-tumor heterogeneity is a major obstacle to cancer treatment. Existing single-cell studies of intra-tumor heterogeneity have largely focused on DNA mutations; functional heterogeneity is...
Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs) have been extensively explored as circulating biomarkers in various cancers. Due to their rarity, heterogeneity and stem cell-like properties, detecting and pro...
FTIR spectroscopic imaging is an emerging tool for label-free, non-destructive characterization of tissues. The pathological annotation of tissue can be performed in an automated and objectiv...
Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) and Endometrioid Endometrial Carcinoma (EEC) are two lethal diseases of public health importance worldwide. Understanding the mechanisms of tumor progression in...
The ability to measure changes to DNA, RNA, and protein across cell types is crucial to understanding the immune response to the environment or therapeutic treatment. NanoString Technologies...
The immune system possesses significant cytotoxic potential. Stimulating natural immunity through vaccination has shown promising effects in some cancers; however, a number of barriers limit...
The talk will first report on a new patented method of counting CTCs based on the metabolism of tumor cells, that favors acidification of their near environment. In order to maintain the acid...
