HIVE Logo. The High-performance Integrated Virtual Environment (HIVE) is a distributed computing environment used for healthcare-IT and biological research, including analysis of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) data, preclinical, clinical and post market data, adverse events, metagenomic data, etc. [1] Currently it is supported and continuously developed by US Food and Drug Administration ...
High-throughput screening (HTS) is a method for scientific discovery especially used in drug discovery and relevant to the fields of biology, materials science [1] and chemistry. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] Using robotics , data processing/control software, liquid handling devices, and sensitive detectors, high-throughput screening allows a researcher to ...
Virtual screening (VS) is a computational technique used in drug discovery to search libraries of small molecules in order to identify those structures which are most likely to bind to a drug target, typically a protein receptor or enzyme. [2] [3] Virtual screening has been defined as "automatically evaluating very large libraries of compounds ...
Such a molecule might be extracted from a natural product or even be a drug on the market which could be improved upon (so-called "me too" drugs). Other methods, such as virtual high throughput screening, [28] where screening is done using computer-generated models and attempting to "dock" virtual libraries to a target, are also often used. [21]
MDSi has a field team of health professionals, which travels to remote and rural communities in Alberta, particularly off-reserve Aboriginal Communities (including the eight incorporated Métis Settlements in Alberta) to carry out diabetes and cardiovascular screening. Little is known about diabetes and Métis people. MDSi is collecting the ...
Remote sites across the United States can now access Joslin's expertise in diabetic eye disease diagnosis and treatment. 2002: The Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) study shows people with elevated blood glucose levels who are at risk for developing type 2 diabetes can reduce their risk by 58 percent through sustained modest weight loss and ...
Personalized medicine, also referred to as precision medicine, is a medical model that separates people into different groups—with medical decisions, practices, interventions and/or products being tailored to the individual patient based on their predicted response or risk of disease.The terms personalized medicine, precision medicine, stratified medicine and P4 medicine are used ...
Telepathology is currently being used for a wide spectrum of clinical applications including diagnosing of frozen section specimens, [11] primary histopathology diagnoses, [12] second opinion diagnoses, [13] subspecialty pathology expert diagnoses, [14] investigative and regulated preclinical toxicology studies, [15] education, [16] competency assessment, [17] and research.
