The COVID-19 pandemic demonstrated the need for rapid, accurate diagnostic tests that could be developed and deployed quickly. Since the company’s founding in 2018, Mammoth has been ad...
Cas9 based therapeutics have the potential to revolutionize the treatment of genetic diseases. However, safe and effective methods for delivering Cas9 protein, gRNA and donor DNA need to be...
The advent of CRISPR-Cas (Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats-CRISPR associated) makes it feasible to target/edit the genome with precision. Most of the CRSIPR-Cas syst...
Rapid, accurate, and wide-spread COVID-19 testing is essential for contact tracing, timely triaging of patients, and viral monitoring. The current gold standard for COVID-19 testing is RT-PC...
The recent outbreak of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) has spread all over the world and raised global concerns. Rapid and early detection of the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, the ca...
Over the past ten years, CRISPR technology has revolutionized genome engineering, as reflected by the recently awarded Nobel Prize. Nevertheless, the process of performing and characterizing...
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...
Performance. Automation. Convenience. Versatility. Those three elements exemplify the Miltenyi Biotec family of flow cytometers. Designed to support the field of flow cytometry, the MACSQuan...
RNA plays important and diverse roles in biology, but molecular tools to manipulate and measure RNA are limited. We demonstrate that RNA-targeting CRISPR effector Cas13 and novel RNA targeti...
Nucleic acid testing is crucial for the prevention, diagnosis and treatment monitoring of many diseases in medicine. Over the last years, microRNAs (miRNAs), short non-coding RNAs, as biomar...
Date: September 27, 2021 Time: 3:00am (PDT), 6:00am (EDT), 12pm (CET) Experts are predicting an increase in influenza cases and a constant presence of SARS-CoV-2 in the shortly approaching i...

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 explosion of interest in extracellular vesicles has largely coincided with the development of tools which allow their rapid and routine characterization, in this presentation we will ide...
Actin cytoskeleton is essential for eukaryotic cells. To exert its countless cellular functions, actin undergoes dynamic remodeling orchestrated by the large number of actin-interacting fact...
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...
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...
Stem cells respond to both physical and biochemical changes in their stem cell niche. An ideal scaffold for tissue engineering application should mimic the microenvironment for natural tissu...
T cells exquisitely discriminate between antigenic and self-peptide ligands presented on major histocompatibility complexes (pMHCs) despite subtle differences in affinities. This aspect of a...
Neutrophils are the most abundant immune cells in human blood and are crucial for host defense against bacterial and fungal infections. Neutrophils are made mainly in the bone marrow from wh...
While providing indispensable insight into immune processes, the live cell imaging of immune cells poses unique challenges due to their non-adherent nature. Suspension cells such as immune c...
