Health: as defined by the World Health Organization (WHO), is "a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity." This definition has been subject to controversy, as it may have limited value for implementation. Health may be defined as the ability to adapt and manage physical, mental and social challenges throughout life.
Background and aim: Worldwide malaria cases have declined. However, despite recent advances, resistance to front line drugs and insecticides means the burden remains high (219 million cases...
The International Council for Standardization in Haematology (ICSH) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing open-access guidance documents to enhance the quality of laboratory tes...
Our laboratory uses tools from pharmacology, genomics, and cell signaling to identify new precision anticancer therapeutic strategies. Under this broad heading, our work involves three key a...
Learning Objectives: 1. What is wrong with healthcare today 2. What kinds of omics and wearables data can be used to best predict disease risk and manage health...
The development of automated DNA sequencers using fluorescent di-deoxy nucleotide sequencing and capillary electrophoresis made it possible to generate the first draft sequences of the human...
Resolving the genetics of underlying Mendelian diseases as well as host immune responses to infectious diseases is an important prerequisite for understanding their biology and for ultimate...
Rapid access to high quality comprehensive coagulation test results is critical to patient care. In an environment where clinical laboratories constantly experience price and labor pressure,...
CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing is a powerful technique that enables genetic modification with greater speed and accuracy than previous approaches. In this webinar, Dr. Chen highlights the advantag...
As the spread of infectious diseases, current pandemic, and growing antimicrobial resistance (AMR) continues globally, next-generation sequencing (NGS) and specifically metagenomics became a...
With the completion of the human genome nearly two decades ago, consumers, patients, and physicians are wondering when genetic testing will go PRIME TIME. While the diagnostic utility of gen...
In this presentation Dr. Kevin Halling describes the use of RNA-seq testing for identifying clinically significant gene fusions in tumors that can be used to help establish diagnosis and gui...
Complex genomes, including the human genome, contain ‘dark’ regions that standard short-read sequencing technologies do not adequately resolve—overlooking many variants tha...
Realizing the promise of Precision Medicine requires both a deep understanding of the landscape of genomic evidence and an understanding of the molecular drivers that influence all aspects o...
As genomics plays an ever expanding role in healthcare and research, educational programs focused on applied genomics have not kept pace with the demand for trained students. In this talk, w...
In recent years Nanotherapeutics has revolutionized the healthcare strategies and envisioned to have a tremendous impact to offer better health facilities. It involves design, fabrication, r...
Achieving a diagnosis in rare disease patients can be challenging for even the most experienced clinician or scientist, creating a barrier to delivering truly personalised care. An exome seq...
The introduction of improved, more cost efficient target capture technologies has accelerated the adoption of Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) in clinical diagnostics. The ability to provide mor...
Estrogen metabolism is the ability to favorably excrete potentially toxic estrogens through urine and sweat. Impaired estrogen metabolism is associated with Endometriosis and Polycystic Ovar...
Graphene-based Biology-gated Transistors (Cardean Transistors) directly read molecular signals of active biology using advanced electronics. This proprietary tech breakthrough can be used as...
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive disease that accounts for 10-20% of all breast cancer cases diagnosed annually in the U.S.1. Despite its prevalence, TNBC remains resist...
Within the clinical arena, the oncology community has led the way in the early adoption of next generation sequencing. NGS is in widespread use in clinical cancer research and is now beginni...
Careful and deliberate packaging of the genome is essential to ensuring correct and timely transcriptional programs. Chromatin conformation capture (3C and Hi-C) is a powerful approach for c...
The introduction of PacBio HiFi sequence reads, which are both long (up to 25 kb currently) and accurate (>99%) at the individual single-molecule sequence read level, has allowed for adva...
