An Improved Method For Studying Mouse Diaphragm Function
During this virtual poster, Dr. Lessa will present a detailed and ready-to-use protocol on the design and manufacture of diaphragm clamps, and why this method is useful to any laboratory interested in performing mouse diaphragm function assay.
Considerations for Rigorous Pre-clinical Studies in Murine Muscular Dystrophy
WEBINAR: Experts will cover key considerations in the design and execution of rigorous pre-clinical efficacy studies in rodent models of Muscular Dystrophy.
Decoding Turbulent Chemical Plumes with Improved Signal Processing and Machine Learning
WEBINAR: Dr. Javier Burgués will demonstrate how he is leveraging low-cost chemical sensors to decode the fine-scale structure of turbulent chemical plumes.
Perception and Encoding of Temporally Patterned Odour Stimuli in Mice
Dr. Dasgupta explains his lab’s research looking at methodology and applications for analyzing the temporal structure of odour plumes.
It Just Makes Scents…Odor delivery with the 220A Olfactometer
The 220A Olfactometer by Aurora Scientific has been updated and during this tech cast, Chris takes viewers through live demonstrations while sharing tips, tricks and best practices for optimal performance.
ASO-Mediated DNM2 Knockdown for Centronuclear Myopathies
During this virtual poster, Suzie presents research they have done to show that reduction of the large GTPase DNM2 in a mouse model of the X-linked form, due to loss of myotubularin phosphatase MTM1, prevents the development of the skeletal muscle pathophysiology.
How to Plan and Execute Contractile Measurements in Permeabilized Muscle Fibers
WEBINAR: Matt Borkowski & Dr Tim West discuss how to plan and expertly execute contractile measurements in permeabilized muscle fibers.
Organize and Streamline Data Collection with DMC LabBook
In this four-part Tech Cast Series, Matt Borkowski takes the viewer though the key new features and upgrades to the new 615A – DMC LabBook Software. Watch the series from start to finish, or choose the videos that are of most interest to you…
The MRL/MpJ Mouse Strain is Not Protected From Muscle Atrophy and Weakness After Rotator Cuff Tear
During this virtual poster, Alex discusses how the MRL/MpJ mouse strain has been touted as a “superhealer”. However, varying tissues have been reported to display different levels of healing ability. The Medias lab sought to test that ability in skeletal muscle.
ULK2 is Essential For Degradation of Ubiquitinated Protein Aggregates and Homeostasis in Skeletal Muscle
The goal of the Lira Lab is to understand how autophagy and other proteolytic processes are regulated in skeletal muscle as they play distinct roles in maintaining skeletal muscle homeostasis, morphology, protein aggregate degradation, and autophagy.
