Disease: is a disorder of structure or function in a human, animal, or plant, especially one that produces specific signs or symptoms that is not simply a direct result of physical injury.
RNA plays important and diverse roles in biology, but molecular tools to manipulate and measure RNA are limited. We demonstrate that RNA-targeting CRISPR effector Cas13 can be engineered for...
CRISPR-based genome editing has accelerated biological research and holds great potential for studying and treating human diseases. The CRISPR-Cas9 system requires a Cas9 nuclease and a guid...
An extensively debated concern about CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing is that unspecific guide RNA (gRNA) binding may induce off-target mutations. However, accurate prediction of CRISPR-Cas9 off-t...
A repeat expansion in the C9orf72-SMCR8 complex subunit (C9orf72) represents the most common genetic cause of two fatal neurodegenerative diseases: frontotemporal dementia (FTD) and amyotrop...
Cas9 based therapeutics have the potential to revolutionize the treatment of genetic diseases. However, safe and effective methods for delivering Cas9 protein, gRNA and donor DNA need to be...

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major public health threat, affecting 11-15% of the U.S. population alone. Currently, there are no effective therapies to cure CKD. Drug therapies are not p...
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a global health threat, affecting over 10% of the world population, including an estimated 37 million Americans. Importantly, glomerular diseases account for...
Extracellular vesicles (EV) from many cell types have demonstrated therapeutic potential against many different diseases. Inhibiting progress in this area is the capability to produce EVs in...
I will present our new computer vision algorithm, ST-Net, which can computationally synthesize spatially resolved transcriptomics directly from H&E histology images (He et al. Nature Bio...
T cells are the adaptive immune system’s first responders to any virus, circulating in the blood to detect and quickly multiply to attack the virus, and also support the development of...
The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in demand for population scale pathogen screening. The most sensitive and reliable method for detecting SARS-CoV-2 remains reverse transcription PCR (RT-PC...
