General pathology is a scientific field encompassing all involved in finding and understanding the mechanisms by which cells and tissue are injured by disease or infection. General pathology also includes evaluation of how the body responds injury and remodels or repairs impacted tissue.
DNASTAR offers an integrated suite of software for accurate assembly and analysis of sequence data for key NGS workflows, including microbial genome assembly. The DNASTAR assembly software is...
Advances in sequencing technology and increasing recognition of the importance of our microbial world have led to unprecedented discoveries in recent years with respect to the human microbiom...
The human race, like all macrobiological life, evolved in a sea of microbes. There was no way to keep the bacterial and archaeal hoards at bay, so instead life evolved mechanisms to live with...
This presentation will discuss fundamental physical, chemical, and biological concepts important to understanding control of detrimental biofilms. Four phenomena that are important in the act...
In the case of Breast Cancer, the patient's cancer is usually detected by a mammogram or palpitation of an experienced Physician. However, these first indications that something is wrong must...
Matching the mutational profile of a patient's tumor with appropriate targeted agents is a goal of personalized medicine in oncology. The number of FDA-approved targeted therapies, as well as...
I will discuss the use of genomic technologies - mostly ultrahigh-throughput DNA sequencing - to study normal human biology and to determine what goes wrong when we have disease. First I wil...
The field of surgical research has been growing rapidly with the development of new surgical and disease models. An extremely important and often overlooked aspect of creating these models is...
With advances in next-generation sequencing, whole-exome and genome sequencing (WGES) is now accessible as a tool in many applications. In the clinical setting, WGES is proving to be very val...
A recent publication in Nature Genetics1 analyzed TCGA data, and classified solid tumors into two mutually exclusive classes: C class tumors, driven by copy number alterations; and M class tu...
Vaginitis and vaginosis, including Bacterial Vaginosis (BV), Vulvovaginal Candidiasis (VVC), and Trichomoniasis (TV), are extremely common conditions, consuming many healthcare resources and...
The value of measuring lactate levels is expanding. Though generally considered a nonspecific biomarker, knowing lactate levels early in a patients presentation can provide valuable informat...
Pharmcogenomics (PGx) is the 2nd potential clinical application of genomic medicine, preceded by genomic application for cancer. In the recently published, 2012 Institute of Medicine report o...
Governments, pathology providers, and clients relying on pathology reports face increasing conflict between burgeoning costs versus demands for service innovation. The health industry has bee...
Interest in vitamin D status remains high amongst the public and medical profession alike stimulating a surge in requests for clinical laboratories to measure patient serum 25-hydroxyvitamin...
Using high throughput next-generation sequencing to simultaneously search large number of genes for pathogenic mutations has numerous advantages. It decreases the pressure to narrow the dif...
Alzheimers disease (AD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder characterized clinically by progress decline in memory and thinking and pathologically by the presence of senile plaques and neu...
ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) mediates cholesterol efflux to lipid-free apolipoproteins such as apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) and apolipoprotein E (apoE). ABCA1 is essential regul...
In physical systems built with many components, emergent properties, such as magnetism, are often generated from the interactions among these particles. These emergent properties are often in...
Clinical laboratories require accurate and precise 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25-OHD) immunoassays to allow comparison of patient results with published decision limits. Automated immunoassays, ra...
Making precision cancer care a future reality requires novel approachesto finding treatment targets in cancers. Single-gene assays currently performed in clinical research laboratories are in...
The proper surgical techniques represent a key opportunity to improve the welfare of laboratory rodents, while meeting legal and ethical obligations. Use of inappropriate or poor surgical tec...
With the growth and expansion of mouse and rat transgenic models in recent years, the demand for surgically altered models mimicking human diseases is growing at an amazing rate. Surgical pro...
2013 has proven to be a year of paradigmatic shifts in molecular diagnostics reimbursement policy. In this session, we will review and analyze these key policy and payment developments and di...
