Antibody profiling is a fundamental component of understanding the humoral response in a wide range of disease areas. Most currently used approaches operate by capturing antibodies onto functionalised surfaces. Such measurements of surface binding are governed by an overall antibody titre, while the two fundamental molecular parameters, antibody af...

The plant cuticle covers the plant's entire aerial surface and acts as the outermost protective layer. Despite being crucial for the survival of plants, surprisingly little is known about its biosynthesis. Conventional analytical techniques are limited to the isolation and depolymerization of the polyester cutin, which forms the cuticular scaffold....

This thesis presents a path towards a multi-material, multi-technology biofabrication approach to harness the cumulative advantages of multiple materials across multiple scales for more complex, accurate and successful medical implants or model systems. To achieve this goal a series of open-source 3D bioprinters were developed that provide research...

Ubiquitin proteasome activity is suppressed in enzalutamide resistant prostate cancer cells, and the heat shock protein 70/STIP1 homology and U-box-containing protein 1 (HSP70/STUB1) machinery are involved in androgen receptor (AR) and AR variant protein stabilization. Targeting HSP70 could be a viable strategy to overcome resistance to androgen re...

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration only gave emergency use authorization of the BNT162b2 and mRNA-1273 SARS-CoV-2 vaccines for infants 6 months and older in June 2022. Yet questions regarding the durability of vaccine efficacy, especially against emerging variants, in this age group remain. We demonstrated previously that a two-dose regimen of s...

Pseudomonas putida has emerged as a promising host for the conversion of biomass-derived sugars and aromatic intermediates into commercially relevant biofuels and bioproducts. Most of the strain development studies previously published have focused on P. putida KT2440, which has been engineered to produce a variety of non-native bioproducts. Howeve...

Current single-cell RNA-sequencing approaches have limitations that stem from the microfluidic devices or fluid handling steps required for sample processing. We develop a method that does not require specialized microfluidic devices, expertise or hardware. Our approach is based on particle-templated emulsification, which allows single-cell encapsu...

BackgroundGestational exposure to polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) has been associated with elevated risk for neurodevelopmental disorders. Placental epigenetics may serve as a potential mechanism of risk or marker of altered placental function. Prior studies have associated differential placental DNA methylation with maternal PCB exposure or with ...

peer reviewed / The availability of public genomic resources can greatly assist biodiversity assessment, conservation, and restoration efforts by providing evidence for scientifically informed management decisions. Here we survey the main approaches and applications in biodiversity and conservation genomics, considering practical factors, such as c...

Understanding how cells are able to tune their phenotype when faced with environmental perturbations is a central question in microbiology. To characterize this particular feature, two different approaches have been considered i.e., on one hand, the design of synthetic gene circuits exhibiting bistability and/or ultrasensitivity to extracellular co...
