Graduate Student Contest Winners This past month we hosted a graduate student contest where we invited the Kerafast community to nominate graduate students who are helping to advance life science research. We were excited to see all the meaningful graduate research being done by the nominees and pleased to announce the winners, Farwa Sajadi from York University and Kerriann Badal from Scripps Research. Both winners will receive a $1,250 gift card and we have featured their work on our blog where you can read more about their research.
Kerafast Provider Plays a Key Role in COVID Vaccine Research We have previously highlighted our provider Dr. Michael Whitt from University of Tennessee for his Delta-G-VSV Pseudotyping System, which has been widely used as a model system for COVID-19 research applications. Dr. Whitt continues to be recognized for his VSV system and contributions to COVID research in articles from the Daily Memphian and The University of Tennessee Health Science Center. If you haven’t already, check out the reagents we offer from Dr. Whitt in our catalog here, and we will continue to follow the news highlighting his contributions to SARS-CoV-2 vaccine development.
New Interactive Periodic Table of Antibodies Our sister company, Absolute Antibody, recently updated their popular Periodic Table of Antibodies to a larger interactive version, showcasing 145 of the antibody formats they have manufactured for customers using recombinant antibody technology. With the interactive version, you can now click each format to see more details such as the valency, half-life, manufacturability and ingenuity. Check it out to see how far antibody engineering has come in recent years.
Featured Lab
Ken Mackie, MD, Indiana University We are excited to feature the Mackie lab this quarter on our homepage! The lab works to examine the role and function of the endocannabinoid system by using a combination of electrophysiological, imaging, biochemical and immunological approaches. We offer three of their cell lines in our catalog, which either express CB1, CB2 or GPR55 receptors and can be used to explore endocannabinoid system function. You can learn more about the Mackie lab on our website here.
