Research and Development: innovative activities performed by corporations or governments for the creation, discovery and advancement of services and products.
The distinction between "complementary" and "companion" diagnostics tests confuse many physicians and healthcare professionals. Panelists Professor Thomas Webster (Northea...
One-third of FDA-approved drugs target G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), transmembrane cell surface proteins that recognize small molecules and polypeptides with diverse chemical scaffolds...
There are many tumor biomarkers but, they mostly reflect tumor mass or past growth, when what is more important is to obtain an indication of future growth and therapy response.Proliferat...
This lecture introduces the evolving paradigm of Molecular Pathological Epidemiology (MPE) as simply as possible. Any given human disease represents fundamentally heterogeneous process,...
DATE: February 15, 2018TIME: 10:00 AM PST, 1:00 PM ESTModern biomedical instrumentation for research or diagnostic applications often rely on cameras as detectors. Cameras in instrument...
Preclinical translational imaging, and specifically molecular imaging methods such as positron emission tomography (PET) or single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) as well as magne...
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...
Digital technology is improving the speed and accuracy of all the world’s work processes and activities, the including the research vivarium. This presentation will address some...
Assessment of how changes in husbandry affect an animal can be challenging as most common methods of assessment, such as corticosterone levels, are more reliable for assessment of acute stres...
There is a growing debate about the usefulness of animal studies in biomedical research and drug development. Some of the challenges in translation from animals to human patients may be from...
Introduction:The cannulation of the cisterna magna in the rat is a valuable model for in-vivo sampling of cerebrospinal fluid for studying delivery of new drugs into the central nervous sys...
The ability to rapidly and accurately identify pain in mice is critical for providing them optimal care and welfare. To meet this need, we developed and validated the Grooming Transfer Test (...
This session will explore the interpretation of multi-species scattergrams in normal and pathologic conditions. Numerous case studies will be reviewed....
Tuberculosis (TB) is the No.1 cause of death due to a single infectious agent in the world today. According to the global report from World Health Organization, one third of world population...
Conspecific aggression is a common problem amongst laboratory housed male mice. While C57BL/6 are not the most aggressive strain we house, they are exceedingly common, and dealing with...
There is a considerable interest and need for evidence-based recommendations regarding the social housing of laboratory rabbits. This presentation will review the principles surrounding the s...
Welfare First, a programme developed to recognise the importance of welfare within the life sciences sector and to meet the aims of its position statement. Animal welfare is a priority,...
In vitro translation (IVT), or cell-free expression, offers a unique and powerful research tool to screen for translational inhibitors that regulate both cellular and viral protein expression...
Pluripotent stem cells can reproduce indefinitely and develop into any cell type in the body. We are putting pluripotent stem cells to use, for a neuron replacement therapy for Parkinso...
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...
