Pediatrics: the branch of medicine that involves the medical care of infants, children, and adolescents. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends people be under pediatric care up to the age of 21. The smaller body of an infant or neonate is substantially different physiologically from that of an adult. Congenital defects, genetic variance, and developmental issues are of greater concern to pediatricians than they often are to adult physicians.
In the past two decades a small number of infrequently dividing cells have been proposed as the source of multi-drug resistance during cancer treatment. These cells identified by their expres...
PacBio Sequencing simultaneously provides long sequence reads, high consensus accuracy, minimal sequence bias, and methylation detection. I will highlight new advances and updates on applying...
To date the anatomic extent of tumor (TNM-classification) has been by far the most important factors to predict the prognosis of cancer patients. However, this classification provides limited...
RNA sequencing unlocks the mysteries hidden in the transcriptome. Whether your goal is gene expression analysis, gene fusion analysis, SNP analysis or miRNA expression analysis, achieving hig...
High-throughput screening is widely useful in identifying genes and pathways that drive changes in cell behavior such as cell cycle regulation, metastasis, and drug resistance. Millipor...
In prior work, we have pursued how tumor reactive monoclonal antibody (mAb), together with activators of innate immune cells, like NK cells, can augment antibody dependent cell-mediated cytot...
Molecular analyses of cancer biology have tended to segregate between a focus on nucleic acids – DNA, RNA and their modifications – and a focus on proteins and protein function. P...
Understanding the immune repertoire is an important aspect of immuno-oncology research, which can be used to gather insights into the function and overall status of the immune system. We have...

Does your work require you to freeze dry samples? Are your results inconsistent? Is your freeze dry cycle taking too long? Learn how to optimize your lyophilization process. This webinar will...
As the costs of genomic analysis decline it becomes possible to offer widescale population genomic analysis to screen for genetic disorders. The Alabama Genomic Health Initiative was es...
There is increasing evidence that intracellular miRNAs play a role in the pathogenesis of many complex disease phenotypes. In addition, extracellular miRNAs in exosomes are emerging as...
Genomic information has the potential to improve management or potentially prevent or enable early intervention of virtually every disease. However, despite massive technological leaps and ex...
