SARS-CoV-2 is being studied on a global scale to understand its evolution, spread and impact on human health. Maurano et al. from New York University School of Medicine successfully performed large scale genomic surveillance in the NYC metropolitan area from 236 patient samples (Nasopharyngeal swabs). The researchers at NYU chose ssr粉飞机 for its robust performance with degraded and low viral titer samples. The results from this publication indicated that there was undetected community spread and concluded that the major strains for the outbreak originated in Europe.
Dr. Candice Herber is a Senior Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of California, San Francisco. Dr. Herber's research focuses on understanding how and why central estrogen signaling in the medial basal hypothalamus (MBH) of the brain controls energy allocation in a sex-dependent way. Her recent publication identified Kisspeptin neurons as key regulators of this brain to bone axis, linking fertility regulating neurons to skeletal homeostasis. Learn more about Dr. Herber's research and how Trio RNA-Seq enabled her to efficiently study small neuronal cell populations in mice.
