Project description:Plasma proteome of 16 high-altitude populations with abnormal CK-MB levels and 16 high-altitude populations with normal CK-MB levels.
Project description:Sexual reproduction and recombination are essential for the survival of most eukaryotic populations. Until recently, the impact of these processes on the structure of bacterial populations has been largely overlooked. The advent of large-scale whole-genome sequencing and the concomitant development of molecular tools, such as microarray technology, facilitate the sensitive detection of recombination events in bacteria. These techniques are revealing that bacterial populations are comprised of isolates that show a surprisingly wide spectrum of genetic diversity at the DNA level. Our new awareness of this genetic diversity is increasing our understanding of population structures and of how these affect host?pathogen relationships. Set of arrays organized by shared biological context, such as organism, tumors types, processes, etc. Keywords: Logical Set
Project description:The purpose of this study is to understand best strategies for engaging high risk populations in a primary care setting to improved adherence to colorectal cancer screening guidelines. The results will be used to identify best practices that are scalable to other high-risk populations who are due or overdue for colorectal cancer (CRC) screening.
Project description:Research efforts are necessary to identify strategies to increase colorectal screening in underserved patient populations. Racial, ethnic minorities and medically underserved individuals continue to experience disparities in colorectal cancer mortality despite the availability of screening tests that can detect tumors early when treatments are most effective.
Project description:In this experiment we sequence the whole genome DNA of 28 unique populations of the root-knot nematode Meloidogyne hapla to investigate their genetic diversity using illumina sequencing. The hapla populations came from various locations, mostly in the Netherlands and Europe. The nematodes were maintained on tomato cv. Money Maker in the greenhouse of Wageningen University. After DNA extraction, DNA was sent for sequencing. The resulting sequence was used for calling variants and genetic analysis.
