Project description:To collect human tissue, blood, and fecal samples from patients suffering from Inflammatory Bowel Disease and Colorectal Cancer. The samples will be used to establish biomimetic human organ-on-a-chip technology, as well as study the role of the microbiome in the pathogenesis in human gastrointestinal diseases.
Project description:transcription profiling of human head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) samples vs. normal tonsil samples using a self-self hybridization experimental design on two-color arrays. Used to identify differentially expressed genes in tumor/normal samples, and compare the result to that of the same samples using the reference design experimental setting. Keywords: tumor/normal comparison
