Climate Change and the Microbes That Could Save or Doom the Amazon

How can microbes in the Amazon help mitigate the global effects of climate change? This is what a recent study published in Microbiology Spectrum hopes to address as a tea of researchers from the United States and Peru investigated how microbes located in the Amazonian rainforest could influence the Earth’s ...

The Megadroughts Have Arrived

Climate change is affecting a seemingly endless number of things, in increasingly drastic ways. Especially lengthy periods of dry weather -- persistent, multi-year droughts, have become more common since the 1980s, according to a new study. This research aims to draw attention to a growing problem so that more informed policies can be developed to deal with this ...

How AI Is Outperforming Humans in Compassionate Responses

Can artificial intelligence (AI) exhibit better empathy than humans regarding mental health concerns? This is what a recent study published in Communications Psychology hopes to address as a team of researchers from the University of Toronto (U of T) investigated whether AI was capable of more compassionate ...

Groundbreaking FRB Discovery Challenges Existing Theories

Where do fast radio bursts (FRBs) come from and how do they form? This is what a recent study published in The Astrophysical Journal Letters hopes to address as an international team of researchers located a repeating FRB residing outside a dead galaxy that could challenge longstanding hypotheses regarding the ...

Using Lunar Resources for Construction: Can the Moon's Dust Power a Base?

Can a future base on the Moon being constructed using only lunar resources like lunar regolith? This is what a recent review paper published in Progress in Aerospace Sciences hopes to address as a team of researchers from Canada and led by Concordia University ...

Virtual roundtable: Advancing proteomics in clinical research with the combined strengths of mass spectrometry and affinity-based methods

Jochen Schwenk, PhD - Professor in Translational Proteomics, KTH Royal Institute of Technology

Ann-Christine König, PhD. - Staff Scientist Metabolomics and Proteomics Core, Helmholtz Center Munich

Hanno Steen, PhD. - Professor of Pathology, Boston Children's Hospital and Harvard Medical School

Protein biomarker discovery, validation and utilization require technologies that deliver proteome insights with breadth and depth. Liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS), the gold-standard of proteomics, provides unbiased protein coverage and detection of isoforms and post-translational modifications. However, achieving high sensitivity and resolution in complex, clinically relevant ...

Assessing differential expression of protein interactions and RNA by combining isPLA and HCR™ Pro RNA-FISH on the BOND RX automated research stainer

Kendra Ritchie - Field Applications Specialist II - Life Sciences, Leica Biosystems

Joseph Melko, MS - Senior Business Development Associate, MI

Sara Bodbin, PhD - Application Scientist, Navinci

The advent of the spatial omics era has enabled researchers to acquire vast amounts of transcriptomics and proteomics data. The abundance of a transcript, however, does not necessarily display strong correlation with protein expression levels, so a holistic approach to sample analysis is crucial. HCR™ Pro RNA-FISH by Molecular Instruments enables high-resolution, multiplex ...

Prof. Steven Lee - Cambridge University

Dr. Sam Daly - Cambridge University

Light field microscopy (LFM) is a revolutionary technique first introduced in 2006 which can essentially capture a 3D volume in a single snapshot, complete with digital refocusing and deconvolution. Typical 3D imaging in microscopy requires multiple captures that are digitally combined post-capture, but with LFM 3D imaging can be done live, at high speed, enabling the capture of more than ever ...
