Biochemistry: the study of chemical processes within and relating to living organisms. By controlling information flow through biochemical signaling and the flow of chemical energy through metabolism, biochemical processes give rise to the complexity of life.
Liquid Biopsies are gaining acceptance in the Oncology community as a surrogate or complement to the gold standard of tissue biopsy. A liquid biopsy provides biomarker information that...
Best practices for developing precision medicine diagnostics can include completing a retrospective analysis. Obtaining enough samples to have a statistically significant study typicall...
Challenges in achieving comparability, reproducibility and accuracy in biological assays has driven a demand for improved confidence in measurements that support development of regenerative m...
In this talk, I will use examples from my research using big data analytics to define ideals of precision medicine and digital health across a variety of diseases. Specifically, I will i...
Much has been made in the popular press about importance of our "genes" in everything from our weight, intelligence, and our risk of disease. While there is a scientific basis...
Identification of the many complex genetic aberrations associated with cancers, and deciphering their role in disease progression and response to treatment is one of the major challenges face...
Gastrointestinal (GI) disorders are now widely recognized as a clinical symptom of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and research into the microbiome-gut-brain axis is beginning to reveal the i...
Launched in early 2015, the Precision Medicine Initiative (PMI) takes advantage of the progress made in genomic testing – progress largely driven by rapid advances in DNA sequencing tec...
Recent advances in DNA sequencing have now made it possible to characterize genomes, transcriptomes and even methylomes which is transforming both basic research and clinical practice. Whole...
The starting point for an interaction between a patient and a clinician is almost always a set of clinical facts (aka a phenotype). Phenotype-first medicine is the standard way in which the p...
The use of pluripotent stem cell-derived cell types for disease modeling, drug screening and regenerative medicine is an exciting area of activity in health research. Prior to the availabilit...
The CRISPR-Cas9 system is being widely used for genome engineering in many different biological applications. It was originally adapted from the bacterial Type II CRISPR system and uses a Cas...
Biosensors are now a well-established technology in the study of small molecules. This talk will focus on several aspects of this type of work that biosensor users can be expected to ex...
