We often hear about breakthroughs in diabetes and lymphoma research or the many different ways you can improve your heart health. These are amazing advances that will surely save thousands if not millions of lives, but many throughout the world are affected by devastating ...
Accelerating science and supporting scientists globally are the shared mission of both Seeding Labs and Addgene. The Addgene-Seeding Labs plasmid grant is a collaborative endeavor providing plasmids to researchers in developing countries. We are proud to introduce the 5 ...
Two plasmids that can be used to make inexpensive 100 bp or 1 kb DNA molecular weight ladders were recently deposited with Addgene. A team of undergraduate students led by Dr. Song Tan at Penn State developed the plasmids, pPSU1 and pPSU2. When restriction digested with PstI or ...
This post was contributed by guest blogger Jon Chow, an immunology PhD student at Harvard University. Do you have a gene of interest but have run into a wall trying to study it? It happens. Is it an evolutionarily conserved gene? Can you find an ortholog in the Drosophila ...
This post was contributed by guest blogger Fredrik Wermeling, leader of a research group at the Centrum for Molecular Medicine (CMM), Department of Medicine, Solna, Karolinska Institutet, in Sweden. It can be very time consuming to design 5 guide RNAs (gRNAs) targeting each of ...
Darrell Kotton is the director of the Center for Regenerative Medicine at Boston University Medical School. Darrell’s research focuses on the lungs, and, among other projects, using stem cells to develop in vitro models for lung disease. Darrell strives to promote open source ...
Research tackling questions in the fields of Cancer, Inflammation and Immunity, as well as various combinations thereof (so called “Immuno-Oncology”) is exploding. Researchers are increasingly able to harness the body’s immune system to fight progressing cancers. It was ...
