Scientists have discovered huge reserves of freshwater beneath the oceans kilometres out to sea, providing new opportunities to stave off a looming global water crisis.

Top Researchers to Present Integrated Approaches to Disease Research, Drug Development.

Despite widespread fascination with sharks, the world’s oldest ocean predators have long been a genetic mystery. The first deep dive into a great white shark’s genetic code has fished up big surprises behind a design so effective it has barely changed since before dinosaurs roamed.

Scientists have been combining new and old approaches to refine sequencing, but challenges remain 

Philip Schwartz, PhD, supervisor and senior scientist and director of the National Human Neural Stem Cell Resource at the Children’s Hospital of Orange County Research Institute, talks to Contributing Editor Tanuja Koppal, PhD, about the subtle particulars and expertise needed to design and maintain a laboratory dedicated to culturing stem cells.

University to host neuroscience research symposium, poster session.

Arizona State University scientists have developed a microfluidic chip, which can sort good germs from bad.

Since their introduction, liquid sporicides have become one of the products of choice for many biological research and production facilities wherever high-level microbial control is critical. Although they are marketed as low-toxicity products, appropriate care during use is essential to prevent potentially dangerous conditions, exposures, and injuries.

Whether fragments are long (>1,000bp) or short as in conventional NGS work (<500bp), NGS library preparations benefit from quantitative and qualitative analysis

Combined capabilities provide scientists with access to new and existing immortalized cell lines for use in broad research applications and clinical markets.
