understanding melioidosis, but this strategy would clearly be challenging. Recent computational and technological advances have made it feasible to quantitatively survey hundreds or thousands of biological molecules, from DNA sequence variations to epigenetic marks to levels of transcripts, proteins and metabolites [51, 52]. Because it is also now possible to monitor transcript levels in a comprehensive fashion, integrating DNA variation, transcription, and phenotypic data has the potential to…
Currently, Dr. Rong Lu conducts research at the University of Southern California (USC). Her lab investigates stem cell malfunction, regulation, and coordination at the single cell level (1). Furthermore, she uses mouse hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) as a model system (1). Dr. Lu’s research utilize various disciplines of biology such as molecular, cellular, and systems biology (1). Additionally, Dr. Lu’s research focuses on investigating the differences and coordination between individual stem…
Introduction The Doctorate of Nursing Practice (DNP) degree is the highest level of education available in the field. Generally, DNP program accentuate areas that promote nursing leadership, such as systems management, quality improvement and data-driven decision making (Nursing.org, 2017). The DNP delivers practice-based training on the clinical applications of higher-level nursing knowledge (Nursing.org, 2017). The American Association of College of Nurses (AACN) recognizes the DNP as a…
Oracle considered sending out her power into the doctor, but the idea of seeing a blown out knee cap made Oracle’s stomach churn. “There, now give it five minutes to run its course, and you’ll be right as rain.” “Thank you,” Reyes gasped. “Are you hurt?” A gentle hand lifted Oracle’s elbow then released it.
