Human research is scientific research conducted with human subjects in an effort to improve health. Human research can involve people directly, but it can also utilize specimens or data from people. Research can be aimed at developing a new drug or therapy or improving a diagnostic or therapeutic technique.
Upon completion of the human genome project, it was determined that greater than 90% of human diseases are due not solely to a person’s genetics but a combination of genetic factors an...
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are abundant in the environment as a result of the use and disposal PFAS containing products including aqueous film-forming foams, textiles, carpet...
Date: October 14, 2021 Time: 8:00am (PDT), 11:00am (EDT) The primary role of B cells is to secrete antibodies, boosting our adaptive immune responses, making them an essential part of our im...
The risk of mortality from COVID-19 follows a sharp age gradient, with older populations facing a thousand fold higher risk of death upon infection than children. At the same time, the COVID...
Vaccination and infection are two different paths to immunity. Understanding human immune responses to SARS-CoV-2 RNA vaccines is of interest for a panoply of reasons. mRNA vaccines have dem...
One significant challenge with SARS-CoV-2 wastewater monitoring is the lack of optimized and standardized sample processing steps, from sample collection to RNA detection. Viral concentratio...
This presentation “SARS-CoV-2 Related Workflow and Solutions: Detection and Genotyping” will focus on strategies for the testing and detection of SARS-CoV-2, including multiplexe...
We’ll discuss the rapid discovery efforts to identify human monoclonal antibody drugs that protect against COVID-19. We will review the technologies used to find antibodies, the optima...
SARS-CoV-2 is an emergent virus. Specifically how it will adapt to human hosts and populations with growing immunity is unknown. Coronaviruses acquire substitutions more slowly than other RN...
Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive form of breast cancer, characterized by the characteristic lack of receptors such as human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2), t...
Competing to offer a comprehensive genomic profiling service for solid or hematology oncology tumor samples is challenging, especially as panels increase in size and complexity. QIAGEN Clini...
One of the central tenants of biology is that our genetics—our genotype—influences the physical characteristics we manifest—our phenotype. But with more than 25,000 human g...
Background: Localized prostate cancer is notable for tumor heterogeneity, and immune heterogeneity within tumor versus benign areas. B7-H3, a member of the B7 superfamily, is highly expresse...
COSMIC is the world’s largest and most comprehensive somatic mutations resource. COSMIC’s contents are manually curated by PhD-level experts from high-quality scientific literatu...

Microtubule plus-end tracking proteins (+TIPs) play key roles in the regulation of microtubule dynamics in vivo. These proteins bind to and regulate microtubule “plus‐ends”, whic...
Bladder cancer is the 4th most prevalent cancer in men, 11th in women and presents one of the highest rates of post-treatment recurrence (70%) among malignancies. Despite its impact on human...
