A multiomic approach to prediction, causation, and prevention of preterm birth and preeclampsia
A multiomic approach to prediction, causation, and prevention of preterm birth and preeclampsia
Recent advances in both genomics, transcriptomics, and proteomics have allowed for the development of novel technologies with greater capabilities for biomarker profiling and discovery. When coupled with high-content data analysis, these multiomic approaches have allowed researchers to generate high-efficiency data to enable new correlations and insights between the genome, transcriptome, and proteome at a molecular level in health and disease. For example, an area of unmet need where multiomics is poised to impact significantly is pregnancy-related complications, such as preterm birth and preeclampsia. A better understanding of the molecular mechanisms of feto-maternal changes during pregnancy could help save lives and improve birthing processes.
Our distinguished presenters — members of the Gaudillière lab at Stanford University — describe how they employed a translational approach that combines single-cell mass cytometry with high-plex proteomic and metabolomic analyses to study the role of the human immune system in the pathobiology of fundamental clinical problems, including pregnancy pathologies. The presenters also explain how they used novel machine-learning methods to train multiomic models and identify biologically relevant predictive biomarkers to develop robust diagnostics rooted in a precise understanding of underlying pathobiological mechanisms.

WebinarLinking the plasma proteome to echocardiographic parameters in patients with chronic heart failure
Recent advancements in proteomic profiling have unlocked new possibilities for understanding the complex mechanisms that drive heart failure. Measuring thousands of proteins simultaneously makes it possible to capture a comprehensive overview of the patient's health state and investigate underlying disease progression at a subclinical level.
WebinarB Cell Repertoire in Determining Responses to Checkpoint Blockade in NSCLC
In this webinar, Gary Middleton, MD, PhD, and Akshay Patel, PhD, from the University of Birmingham explore the role of the B cell repertoire and autoantibodies in shaping responses to checkpoint blockade immunotherapy in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). They demonstrate how autoantibody profiling using the i-Ome™ Discovery protein microarray revealed biomarkers predictive of treatment efficacy and immune-related adverse events (irAEs), providing insights into biomarker development and personalized immunotherapy strategies.
WebinarSerum Autoantibodies Differentiate Rheumatoid Arthritis Subgroups
Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) can be categorized as either anti-citrullinated protein antibody-positive (ACPA+) or negative (ACPA-). In this webinar, Dr. Sung will present his research exploring a broad range of serological autoantibodies to uncover immunological differences between these RA subgroups using data from ACPA+ RA patients, ACPA- RA patients, and matched healthy controls.
