METABOLOMICS: Ion-exchange chromatography in metabolomics: Exploring analytical performance and metabolome coverage
James McCullagh, Professor of Biological Chemistry and Director of the Mass Spectrometry Research Facility at the University of Oxford, will look at the technical capabilities of IC-MS in the context of untargeted metabolomics applications, explore metabolome coverage and report insights into altered central carbon metabolism in disease models.
Tuesday, September 7, at 16:00 BST / 17:00 CEST / 11:00 EDT / 08:00 PDT
GENOMICS: Miniaturize to maximize: High-resolution genomic and NGS libraries at a fraction of the cost
In this webinar, Richard Eccles, from the Centre for Genomic Research at the University of Liverpool, alongside SPT Labtech and New England Biolabs, Inc., will demonstrate how the mosquito® genomics enables the automation and miniaturization of the NEBNext® Ultra™ II FS DNA library prep kit, producing high-quality data, increased throughput, and a significant reduction in the cost per sample.
Tuesday, September 7, at 16:00 BST / 17:00 CEST / 11:00 EDT / 08:00 PDT
CRISPR: Identifying genome-wide targets of osmotic stress tolerance in E. coli using CRISPR-mediated forward engineering
In this webinar, discover how to design experimental methods for studying osmotic stress response in E.coli and create genome-wide libraries of up 25,000 edits, including knockout and promoter substitutions, in an automated, massively parallel workflow. Plus, identify enriched and depleted variants, including genes known to be involved in the osmotic stress response and previously unknown targets.
