Gene Targeting: A Focus on Acute Myeloid Leukemia Gene Silencing and Detection of Methylated DNA by Exploring the Use of Synthetic Nanocarriers and Nucleic Acid Analogs
DownloadSpring 2019
Research in the field of nucleic acids and molecular genetics has enormously enhanced our knowledge about the genetic origins of a myriad of disease. Currently from this knowledge, various gene-targeted therapies and biomarker detection and diagnostic assays are being developed, which are...

Human Plasma Adsorption to Biomaterials: Fundamental Level Chemical Modifications and Their Effects on Biocompatibility
DownloadFall 2017
The non-specific adsorption of proteins to biomaterials is a process that begins instantly upon implantation and results in the formation of a protein-rich layer coating the biomaterial surface. The consequences of this complex phenomenon are far-reaching and may affect both the biomaterial...

In-silico Methods for Drug Discovery: Applications of Molecular Dynamics, Drug Docking, and Machine Learning
DownloadSpring 2024
Drug discovery is a venture that is costly in both time and money. In-silico methods are a core part of biomedical research, from traditional tools such as drug docking and molecular dynamics to newer machine learning frameworks, all of which are more efficient in both time and cost compared to...
