Fundamental research, in comparison to applied research, is an area of scientific research that focuses on progressing rudimentary scientific theories with the goal of further understanding scientific basics and making educated predictions on observed phenomena.
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) has poor prognosis with frequent relapses and deaths using current standard of care treatments. Metabolic reprograming is now recognized as a fundam...
Ion mobility/mass spectrometry has tremendous potential for metabolomics, lipidomics, and clinical analysis. Ion mobility can resolve compounds unresolved by LC/MS/MS, provide additional stru...
In genomics, as in life, you need to be in the right place at the right time, and you need integrity, to be credible. Since the availability of the human genome sequence, there's been an...
Cannabis and its products are referred to in the USA as Medical Marijuana. The traditional approach tomedical research of a single compound for a single target does not work for cannabis, a...
General anesthesia is a drug-induced, reversible condition comprised of five behavioral states: unconsciousness, amnesia (loss of memory), analgesia (loss of pain sensation), akinesia (immobi...
Using Hebbian as well as homeostatic models of brain plasticity, the effects of neurofeedback (NFB) are examined from the theoretical perspective of EEG normalization. Within this framework,...
This lecture introduces the evolving paradigm of Molecular Pathological Epidemiology (MPE) as simply as possible. Any given human disease represents fundamentally heterogeneous process,...
We recently reported that HDAC6 is involved in the regulation of a number of immunosuppressive checkpoint proteins, including the Program Death Receptor Ligand 1 (PD-L1). This protein is one...
The translation gap in biomedical research can be attributed in part to differences in how outcomes are assessed in preclinical research and in the clinic. Reasons for these mismatches includ...
One of the goals of the “3Rs principle” is to replace in vivo testing methodologies with in vitro procedures on human cells, followed by computational systems biology modelling to...

DATE: November 16, 2017TIME: 10:00am PST, 1:00pm EST, Neuronal networks play a fundamental role in the brain, with many diseases linked to disruptions in network activity. Cell-ba...
This session will review and describe the basic steps of a biosafety risk assessment for clinical laboratories. The risk of exposure to infectious agents exists in every clinical labora...
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has a five-year survival rate of only 9%. Acquired drug resistance is a major factor that limits the effectiveness of chemotherapy. Exosomes, secreted...
Nanopore sequencing has enormous potential for application to cancer, but specifically offers advantages into two main arenas, epigenetics and structural variation. Methylation is well-known...
How are your RNA yields? Some sample types present special challenges in RNA purification and analysis. In this webinar, we will discuss and provide tips for the following topics: &b...
Although the cell is commonly referred to as “the most basic unit of life”, it is actually so complex that despite over 350 years of research we are still far from fully understan...
A fundamental question in neuronal development is how growth cone cytoskeletal dynamics are coordinated to promote accurate axonal navigation. To address this question, we focus on microtubul...

Diabetes is a debilitating chronic disease that is spirally out of control. Fundamentally, the progressive failure of pancreatic beta cells results in decreased insulin secretion, ultimately ...
Therapeutic application of pluripotent stem (PS) cell-derived products represents the ultimate goal of stem cell research. In order to apply this technology to patients, it is fundamental to ...
The identity of somatic and pluripotent cells can be epigenetically reprogrammed and forced to adapt a new functional cell state by different methods and distinct combinations of exogenous fa...
The commercialization of micro and nanofluidic devices has had promise for providing novel solutions to deliver high throughput, more efficient, integrated biological and chemical analysis to...
Massive parallel sequencing (MPS) technologies have paved the way into new areas of research including individualized medicine. However, sequencing of trace amounts of nucleic acids still rem...
