Advances in cell and molecular biology have catapulted our understanding of the science of life from the basic understanding of how cells and the components of cells interact within living organisms. Remain up to date on recent discoveries and revelations through these webinars.
Gene therapy involves introducing a functional gene into the patient's cells to replace a missing or defective one. It has revolutionized the field of medicine and has the potential to c...
Neuroinflammation has been implicated as a factor in alcohol-induced neurodegeneration, but the role of the neuroimmune system in alcohol consumption has only recently come to the forefront....
Vaccines have played a major role in protecting human health as one of the key means of controlling infectious diseases. More than 20 high-risk diseases can be currently prevented through va...
I will present my lab’s effort on studying and manipulating RNA processing, with particular emphasis on using CRISPR/Cas systems for targeting RNA in living cells in diseases such as my...
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...

The exponential advents of advances in techniques and types of molecular diagnostic testing, and modifying strategies for these tests, are encouraging; but these evolutions simultaneously con...
The use of biologic-based therapeutics has revolutionized our ability to treat complex diseases such as cancer- and autoimmune-related disorders. Biologic-based therapeutics are known to gen...
Extracellular ligands bind to receptors on the cell surface leading to receptor internalization. Once internalized into small vesicles, the vesicles fuse with an organelle known as the sorti...
Checkpoint blockade therapy for cancer has had tremendous impact on clinical outcomes, yet only a subset of patients respond. Recent studies show that response to checkpoint blockade does not...
Heterotetrameric adaptor protein (AP) complexes play key roles in protein sorting and transport vesicle formation in the endomembrane system of eukaryotic cells. One of these complexes, AP-4...
On measuring photons and ions: Impact on panel design, signal detection and data quality 10:30–11:00 am PDT Presented By: Tim Bushnell, PhD, MBA Monitoring immunotherapy with a mass cy...
After a brief definition of terms (what are bioplastics?), this lecture will discuss various material and application examples for biobased and/or biodegradable plastics. An overview on the...
Tumor phenotypes are dictated not only by the neoplastic cell component, but also by the tumor microenvironment (TME), which is inherently immuno-suppressive, is equipped to hamper effector...
For more than a century, breakthroughs in biological sciences have relied on the ability to study cells outside of respective organisms. While majority of cell culturing is still performed u...
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are lipid bilayer-delimited pieces of cells that are released from the plasma membrane as "ectosomes" and from the endosomal system as "exosomes.&...
Date: September 16, 2021 Time: 8:00am (PDT), 11:00am (EDT) Rapid screening and speed of scale-up in protein therapeutics are critical factors in today’s biotech and pharma workflows. T...
The capture of tumor-derived extracellular vesicles (TEVs) by cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME) contributes to metastasis and notably to the formation of the pre-metastatic niche (PM...
Biomedical researchers are increasingly using advanced human cell models for translational biology and therapeutic discovery studies. These include patient-specific samples, cultured micro-ti...
Multi-target screening can offer great insight into the genetic pathways in drug resistance and disease. RNAi and the fast pace of CRISPR technology development has brought sophisticated opt...
The microcapillary-based technology behind the Guava® range of flow cytometers and analyzers offers compact, waste-reducing solutions for all cell health verification and counting needs....
Extracellular vesicles (EV) from many cell types have demonstrated therapeutic potential against many different diseases. Inhibiting progress in this area is the capability to produce EVs in...
From gene cloning and initial clone selection through to final cell evaluation, the continual assessment of cell count and viability is important for determining the best growing and highest...
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...
Current methods used to predict safety and efficacy of candidate drugs accounts for as much as 90% failure rate. Approximately 30% of drugs have failed......
The global incidence of cancer is on a steady rise, with a projected annual diagnosis rate of nearly 30 million cases by 2040. Despite this alarming trend, our understanding of the intricate...
Across the entire spectrum of the life sciences sector, from academia and hospitals to pharmaceutical and biotech companies, enormous amounts of resources are invested in the development of...
