Hi,
       I am planning to do my Phd in Biotechnology in USA. I have completed my masters in India.
Could you please help me with the procedure and suggest some colleges to apply.


Thanks & Regards,
Sugureddy Ankush Reddy.

Hello!
My name's Natalie and it's my first note here.
I'm from Poland and I'm 15 now.
(My English isn't perfect, so sorry for all of mistakes).

I'm really interested in biotechnology, especially in genetic engineering, and if you have time... I'll be honestly so grateful for the answers. I've got few questions.

1) Is there (and where) in California any possibillity to practice my job when I'll be going to college in Poland? I mean... In the second or third year I want to fly to California just for maybe four months. Practice in the US will be looking very good in the cv.

2) Is genetic engineering good job? In lots of ways... Money, time, difficulty... Next year I'm going to high school and I'll have to choose my class-profile. I'll probably choose biology-chemistry, but this is the last time to think about it if I'm not sure.

3) I really want to study biotechnology but I'm still not completely sure about my occupation. Are there any better choices?

Okay, I think that three questions for the start are enough.
I hope that you won't have any big problems with reading this. (My horrible English... )

I'm here also because if I want to go to the USA even for a few months, I have to learn this proffesional (biology) language.

May the force be with you.
Natalie.

Does anyone know anything about epicocum in humans? I would like to know how i got it and if it contagious? I have searched and search and cannot find anything except for info about plants, ect...  Please help!!!

Hello everybody


I was wondering if anyone could help me by adivising me wich fully funded european scolarships exist that are not so exellence orientated but more for developing countrys and for those students with social needs. I really cant aford studying biotechnology in Manchester and paying over 20 000 euros a year, nor in Slovenia where a year is 4000 euros.

I applied in the ICGEB trieste center but unfortunately their biotech group is full, and I really dont want study any other genetic field that can be studyed at Trieste. I am completing my master in genetics in Sarajevo but my country cant facilitate any reall biotechnology studies so my master is more population genetics orientated so I am desperatly trying to find any phD scolarship in western Europe wich can give me the know hows wich I could use to improve my home country biotech situation.I would love to know how to create a pilot production in biosimilars on a small experimental scale that can evenutally grow in production.

I am interested in the recombinant or gen engineering aspect of Biotechnology wich emphasises on genetics. My bachelor degree is in medical laboratory technology so I would love to utilize the knowledge in red biotechnology for production of pharmaceutical products like insulin or interferon etc. Maybe for now I am not harboring a vast amount of knowledge in biotechnology but I am highly motivated in pursuing my goal.

I would also be grateful if someone could recommend me some Ebooks wich could give me a good intro in the recombinant aspects of biotechnology.

Looking forward for replys

Cheers and all the best

Both the professional athlete and the weekend warrior spend intense hours of practicing, training, while building stamina and technique. We all seek to improve our performance and outcome no matter the sport. Now you can have a coach with you 24/7 who tells you what you are doing wrong, what you need to correct while logging all movement patterns and metrics of the lower body for you to review at a later time.



In the medical world gait and balance assessment/training are crucial in helping those with neuromuscular deficits, the elderly who have mobility impairments or simply individuals who wear orthotic or prosthesis devices. The Intelisoles will revolutionize the way in which clinicians interact with and help patients by providing a simple and highly effective tool to correct and enhance motor skills, helping to improve quality of life and even reduce injury related falls in seniors which is the #1 cause of injury related deaths.



Intelisoles is one device that has immense applications in both the Sports Performance and Medical markets. Intelisoles will be launching in 2015 with a focus in medical market for gait and balance assessment/training, and in the sports performance markets for metrics on running, cycling, golfing, lifting and more.

The Intelisoles are comprised of ultra-thin insoles which are wearable in any shoe and wirelessly communicate with Smartphones and Tablets. This will allow you to record, monitor, review and compare your body movements, like balance & weight shift, stress patterns, gait pressure patterns and foot movement during any activity. They also can provide real time audible and visual feedback to let you know when a movement pattern is not efficient or is unwanted, such as excessive heel strike during jogging, excessive and uncontrolled sway during a golf swing (sway and video recording!), or unwanted gait parameters in rehab such as over pronation or unsteady walking patterns.

The next phase of software development will be in the gaming market so your action games can be more immersive than ever.

Have a modest background in molecular biology from years past. Found a small nonprofit biotech lab with others similarly educated. I write to inquire if one can calculate the micropipette dial settings on paper before going to lab.

Wanted a way to use the desired volume and the micropipette size to confirm what the dial settings would show. Errors are infrequent here but can cost valuable time.

Even the experienced can be distracted. Guidance sought

Hello. Im currently in the 3rd year of my BSc. Biotech degree and would like to know the suitable countries to pursue my masters. USA is not possible since it requires 16 years, however is it a good idea to complete a year of my masters in India and then transfer?
Also,i would like to know the current industries in Biotech that are doing well and the country i decide to study should be such where i could get a job as well?

As I understand, certain frequencies can help destroy bacteria, pathogens, viruses as well as HIV and AIDS. In therapeutic means, this would be possible using ultrasound or red light as well since it is a photodynamic way to kill bacteria as well.

Our bodies as I learned is able to produce around 10 to 100 millivolts (Nanomedicine). If this is the case, why not use electricity to cure illnesses through frequencies lower than the bodies voltage/current level to cure all illnesses? Using electricity seems like a better alternative to ultrasound or red light. Our bodies can handle electricity, since we produce them anyways. It just sounds logical that using electricity to cure illness, by nature, fits the description of a good adaptation to the body, but in very low voltages.

This does bring to mind about blood electrification. Does this work, or does it not? Just passing blood cells, along with those bacteria, pathogens, viruses that travel along with them through an electric frequency field in VERY low voltages should help keep blood cells plump and healthy and destroy illnesses around them. What do you guys think about this?

I know there are still further studies being made for this subject, but it sounds just right that Electrocurrent should do the trick for any illnesses out there, and might be good for the future.

Hello,

My name is Martijn and am working on a project in which we want to have a certain bacteria strain populate a mosquito strain after having fed this bacteria through a bloodmeal. The bacteria should carry a plasmid with different DNA markers which should make it possible to identify the bloodmeal the mosquito took. We want to be able to detect this plasmid 8 days post feeding and that is what makes this project quite challenging. We do not want to give the mosquito antibiotics so there is no pressure on plasmid maintenance during these 8 days and at the moment we find only about 50% of the mosquitoes positive after that time for bacteria harbouring the plasmid. We want to increase this and maybe someone here has some nice tips to obtain that?
We currently use a non-mobilizable, midle-copy number plasmid but there is also a mobilizable version commercially available. Would this increase plasmid maintenance in our mosquitoes?

Hi,

I would like to know if there are companies / universities in the east coast (US) that would sponsor H1 Visa for some one who has a PhD from Europe and 2 master's degrees in Genetics / cancer biology.

Thanks

I have a smaple which I shoud dilute - binary dilution (-log2). What does it mean? Any advice?

Shoud I do it for example in this way: 1:2, 1:4, 1:8, 1:16, 1:32 etc.?

Hi, Nice to meet everyone.

I know that a lot of biotech firms are patent rich, so I wanted to ask those of you who have patents a favour.

I’d like to know what (if any) are your patent renewal pain points. What are your patent renewal woes? What troubles have you had with your existing provider? What would fix your problems.

After some bad patent renewal experiences we had with our own patents (actually in the food business), we’ve built a new company and service for patent renewals that’s created with the patent holders in mind first. We're now developing our service further. So, I want to ask: What would improve patent renewals for you?

Thanks in advance.

Multiplex dipstick is an ELISA method, how does it work?

Hi, everyone!
A new guy here.

Do you know Knockdown?

As far as I know RNA interference has become a widely used approach to perform gene knockdown experiments in cell cultures and more recently transgenic animals. It has developed into a routine method to assess gene function in a fast and easy manner.These RNAi models allow researchers to induce and reverse gene knockdown in transgenic mice at selected time points in vivo.

Here proprietary RNAi technology is extremely vital to our research and experiment.

If you are interested in this topic and you know something about it, please share with us!
If U have any questions about it or have any trouble with your experiment, you can also ask!
I and my Creative Animodel colleagues are glad to help you!

Hope to discuss with you soon!

Best regards,
Dianna

The 2014 outbreak of Ebola virus highlights the urgent need to develop an effective vaccine to prevent the spread of this deadly virus, and effective therapies to improve survival rates among those infected with Ebola. A DNA vaccine candidate should begin clinical trials in humans this year, and investigational drugs in development to treat patients suffering from viral hemorrhagic fever include monoclonal antibodies, siRNA-based therapeutics, and antiviral small molecule drugs.


Ebola Vaccines (preventative drugs) currently in development:

Researchers are developing a vaccine for Ebola that contains an attenuated live virus, vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV), a common livestock pathogen, into which an Ebola viral coat protein has been introduced. With funding from the US DOD’s Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA), Newlink Genetics Corp has licensed an Ebola vaccine candidate developed by researchers at the Public Health Agency of Canada and are poised to begin human clinical trials before the end of the month of August 2014. Newlink is working with manufacturers to scale up production of the drug so that tends of thousands of doses could be available within a few months.



Molecular biology is the branch of biology that deals with the molecular basis of biological activity. This field overlaps with other areas of biology and chemistry, particularly genetics and biochemistry. Molecular biology chiefly concerns itself with understanding the interactions between the various systems of a cell, including the interactions between the different types of DNA, RNA and protein biosynthesis as well as learning how these interactions are regulated.

During transcription of DNA to RNA, where does the ribose sugar of the RNA transcript come from? Does the RNA polymerase have all those sugars stored inside of it?
