Life sciences researchers need a host of tools to develop and test critical disease-treating drugs and therapies, from basic research to final product release. In this webinar brought to you by Lonza, Kevin Grady will review how primary human cells and optimized media systems can be the building blocks for developing advanced models for examining drug toxicity. 📅 May 15 @ 11AM ET Register now #AD: https://ow.ly/H3pI50RekI6

Scientists use three-dimensional cell culture models, such as organoids, to replicate an organ’s functionality and structure in vitro. However, researchers with limited experience often find it challenging to develop organoid models. In this webinar brought to you by Sartorius, Aitor Aguirre will explain how his group produces mini hearts and uses these organoids to investigate development and disease.

From cellular motility to immune cell signaling, scientists seek to uncover the pathways that cancer cells take to metastasize. In this symposium, Jennifer Munson from Virginia Tech, Adrienne Boire from Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, Robert Insall from UCL, and Jean-François Côté from Institut de recherches cliniques de Montréal (IRCM) will discuss cellular mechanisms of metastasis, including tumor microenvironments, cell migration, anti-tumor immunity, and cytoskeletal dynamics.

DNA methylation is an epigenetic modification that alters gene expression, where aberrant methylation patterns contribute to the pathogenesis of numerous diseases. However, most next generation short read sequencing technologies focus solely on detecting the four DNA bases and do not analyze their methylation status, which prevents scientists from evaluating the genome and methylome simultaneously. A novel sequencing workflow overcomes this limitation. Click the link below to discover how an innovative sequencing pipeline detects both cytosine methylation and hydroxymethylation marks, as well as genetic variants in this new poster from biomodal. #AD https://ow.ly/8L8l50RaOUf
