It is essential to develop a vaccine against SARS-CoV-2, the virus causing the global COVID-19 pandemic. The most efficient vaccines are built on attenuated live viruses, which can be engineered to display specific antigens and, once administered in humans, can safely induce an immune response and immunity to the disease of interest. Fast, reliable, and […]

Transcription factors (TF) are proteins that drive and maintain cellular functions by physically binding to DNA and regulating the expression levels of other genes. There are approximately 1,600 TFs in the human genome. Accurate and scalable identification of TF binding locations across the entire genome remains a major challenge. An effective solution to this problem […]

Hypoglycemia or low blood sugar is a phenomenon that results from excess insulin or strenuous exercise in diabetic patients. If untreated, this can quickly lead to dizziness, seizures and even death. In healthy individuals, the body is able to compensate for these fluctuations and restore blood sugars to normal levels by lowering insulin and raising […]
