Biomarker Discovery is a process in which molecular substances in the body are used to indicate health or disease. One of the biggest challenges in biomarker discovery is the difficulty of identifying medium to low abundance proteins in complex biological samples.
The liver plays a critical role in the metabolism and clearance of more than 70% of marketed drugs. Furthermore, toxicity to the liver is a major reason for preclinical and clinical drug fai...
“The poor translatability of early-stage preclinical models is a major setback in oncology drug development. Immortalized cell lines, that are extensively used in drug screens, undergo...
Biomarkers are critical tools for all stages of cancer research, from drug development through clinical applications. Cancer is fundamentally a disease of unregulated cell growth and circumv...
