Speech neuroprostheses have the potential to restore communication to people living with paralysis, but naturalistic speed and expressivity are elusive. Here we use high-density surface reco...
In recent years, small volume biopsies have been increasingly utilized for diagnosis of tumors in both primary and recurrent settings. Concomitantly, the numbers of ancillary studies for cha...
mRNA‑based products are rapidly growing in the biotherapeutics space. Important considerations need to be made to develop a process for mRNA synthesis that consistently generates high‑yield...
Interoceptive signals dynamically interact with the environment to shape appropriate defensive behaviors. Neurons in the hypothalamus regulate internal states, such as thirst and circadian r...
This presentation explores the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of β-lactam antibiotic dosing, particularly in ICU patients. To optimize PK/PD targets, two strategies are...
Multiplex immunofluorescence is a powerful tool for phenotyping cells from a single tissue slide, while preserving spatial context. The MultiOmyxTM platform, offered as an end to end service...
Globally there has been a constant rise in the population suffering from cardiovascular diseases mostly due to metabolic complications. We have made use of two high throughput omics-based ap...
Central Nervous System (CNS) therapies have significantly progressed in the last decade, propelled by emerging treatment modalities including gene therapies. Neurological indications remain...
Current cancer research is hindered by the limitations of existing experimental systems, which fall short in demonstrating concordance with human studies. In this way, we aim to develop mode...
Spatial analysis of protein or gene expression is vital to understanding the distribution, phenotypes, and interactions between cells within tumor microenvironment (TME). Traditionally, mult...
NAFLD (non-alcoholic fatty liver disease) is a global epidemic that affects 25% of the world’s population, with its epicentre in the West. Twenty percent of NAFLD patients go on to dev...
Learning Objectives: 1. Summarize the benefits and challenges of current preclinical methods in drug discovery and development. 2. Review new alternative methodologies (NAMs) and microphysio...
Proliferation biomarkers are proteins that are up-regulated in growing cells. Immunological staining of tumor tissue can provide an indication of the aggressivity of the tumor and provide in...
Across many cancers, mortality is associated with metastasis and acquired drug resistance, both of which often manifest in recurrent disease. Central to these phenomena is epithelial to mese...
The study of a single cell, the fundamental unit of our complex bodies, has become an important field in cellular biology, and researchers are using single-cell analysis to shed new light on...
Women experience a variety of unique sexual health issues that are often under appreciated by the general public and even by healthcare providers. Compared to other populations, cisgender wo...
