Neuroimaging Study Reveals the Impact of Childhood Trauma on the Brain
About the Research Trauma influences the mental health of victims. However, scientists and medical experts are not sure how profound this impact is. That is, the scientific community cannot determine how trauma impacts the brain on a physiological level. Even though we can notice changes in behavior and personality. Mental symptoms associated with children […]
Estimating the Chiasma Frequency in Diplotene-Diakinesis Stage
Reference to this article: ConductScience, Estimating the Chiasma Frequency in Diplotene-Diakinesis Stage (2019). doi.org/10.55157/CS20200925 Introduction Chiasma is the point of crossing over or site where the exchange of genetic material takes place between two homologous, non-sister chromatids. The crossover occurs in the pachytene stage, however, it is observed in the diplotene stage of meiosis-I[2]. The […]
sgRNA construction and design
Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) technology is a rapid, cheap, and efficient tool to edit genomes at a precise location. CRISPR technology has now been reduced to just two components: Endonuclease and g RNA. Endonuclease makes an incision at the target DNA molecule to be edited, and gRNA is a single-stranded synthetic 20 […]

Gel Electrophoresis
Need Electrophoresis Equipment for your research? Click here Gel electrophoresis is a type of electrophoresis that separates molecules or components based on their size or conformation in a matrix made from gel-forming substances. Since its conception, gel electrophoresis has been modified, in terms of gel types, composition, and the set-up of the system to accommodate […]
New Live Imaging Technique Said to Revolutionize the Study of Brain Function
About the Research Research about brain function in neuroscience is on the rise because of the contributions of modern technology. However, the scientific understanding of how the brain works is not complete. Until now the dominant practice in neuroscience research was to segment the brain into regions. The practice of brain segmentation is based on […]
