Training for researchers using animals is a requirement in most European countries. However, somewhat surprisingly, the main actor in providing specific guidelines for such training is a scie...
From basic chemistry to complex digestions, the right fume hood exists for every application. In this presentation we will discuss chemical fume hoods......
The laboratory animal industry had expanded rapidly in China recently. It is critical to have a good basic understanding of the domestic laws and regulations involving laboratory animals if a...
All trainers are people but not all people are trainers. Several factors beyond the trainer influence the effectiveness of a safety training programs. This program will discuss the critical...
Induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells are a promising source of personalized therapy. These cells can provide immune-compatible autologous replacement tissue for the treatment of potentially a...
The immune system is capable of recognizing tumors and eliminates many early malignant cells. However, tumors evolve to evade immune attack, and the tumor microenvironment is immunosuppressiv...
The Sarbecoviruses encodes a large panel of highly heterogeneous, but related zoonotic, epidemic and pandemic coronaviruses that include SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV2, which have been associated wit...
This webinar covers various fundamental aspects of performing a successful digital PCR (dPCR) assay on the QIAcuity instruments. An essential parameter to consider in designing a dPCR assay...
The advent of the microarray technology in 2000 has paved the way for advanced translational research methods that use molecular markers such as microRNA, proteins, metabolites and copy numbe...
Human breast tumors have been shown to exhibit extensive inter- and intra-tumor heterogeneity. While recent advances in genomic technologies have allowed us to deconvolute this heterogeneity,...
Endometrial adenoarcinoma is a common cause of gynecological cancer death in Europe and North America. The most dominant subtype, Endometrioid Endometrial Cancer (EEC) accounts for >80% of...
Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis also known as inflammatory bowel diseases or IBD, are characterized by chronic, recurrent inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract, which result...
Pathology departments are under significant pressure to meet the demands of a precise medicine environment where general phenotypic attributes are no longer sufficient for accurately defining...
Oxford Nanopore’s MinION is a small sensing device which can sequence DNA and RNA directly, without the need to perform an enzymatic synthesis reaction. The device is portable and is po...
Flow cytometry is a powerful technique for the analysis of multiple parameters of individual cells within heterogeneous populations. Flow cytometers are used in a broad range of applications...
GenScript’s new DNA Encoded Chemical Library (DECL) kit will revolutionize your pharmaceutical hit discovery and chemical biology research. In partnership with a leading technology exp...
Emerging technologies facilitate basic science research, but their value in regulatory applications requires rigorous assessment and consensus within the research community. Next-generation s...
In December 2012 the UK Prime Minister announced the 100,000 genomes project to introduce whole genome sequencing for treatment into the UK National Health Service (NHS) o...
