Quality > Quantity: Is your Lentivirus actually working? 🦠

In viral vector production, a high titer can be misleading. Are you counting "empty envelopes" or delivered messages? ✉️

This month, we’re breaking down:
🔹 Physical Titer: The total count of viral particles (the "stuff"). 📏
🔹 Functional Titer: The true measure of infectious potency (the "hits"). 🎯

The Takeaway: A high Physical-to-Functional (P:F) ratio can cause cell toxicity without the results you need. Know your IU/mL for a precise MOI! 🧪✨

🌟 Employee Spotlight 🌟

Meet Paul 👋

Paul has been part of the BD & Marketing team at abm for nearly 8 months, bringing both curiosity and a strong foundation as a nutritional science student.

Outside of work, he’s all about experiences — whether it’s going to concerts (with BTS and The Neighbourhood coming up 🎶), discovering new books, or finding the best spots to eat (he’s your go-to if you need recommendations).

He also loves to travel, with New York and Japan at the top of his list — and he’s already planning a trip to New York this Christmas ✈️

We’re lucky to have his energy and passion on the team!

April is Oral Health Awareness Month!

Oral cancers aren’t one disease. Even within the same tissue, tumors vary widely driven by genetics, HPV status, and patient differences. That’s why model selection matters.

abm provides a range of oral cell models:
- Tumor cell lines
- Immortalized cells
- Stromal models
- Engineered systems (CRISPR, reporters)

Explore how the right models can support your next oral health breakthrough through our website. https://buff.ly/l21vXND

🧪 Science Today | Gene Therapy Breakthrough 🌱

No more transplants? Scientists found a tiny window right after birth when blood stem cells circulate freely — and they used it to deliver healthy genes directly with viral vectors.

In mouse models, this in vivo therapy corrected immune deficiencies, bone disease, and marrow failure — offering hope for conditions like ADA-SCID and Fanconi anemia.

From risky transplants to simple injections, this discovery could rewrite how we treat genetic blood disorders.

🚀 Spotlight: Featuring Dr. Cortney Gensemer!

✨ Meet Dr. Cortney Gensemer (), a researcher and science communicator whose work sits at the intersection of translational research, chronic illness, and patient-centered impact. With a unique perspective shaped by both science and lived experience, Cortney uses her platform to make research feel more human, honest, and accessible.

🔬 Her work focuses on complex chronic diseases, biomarkers, and improving diagnosis and treatment — but what really sets her apart is how openly she shares the realities of being a scientist, patient, and mother all at once.

🧬 Science Today | New Tool Reads DNA & RNA in One Cell

Scientists at EMBL have developed SDR-seq, a breakthrough single-cell technology that reads both DNA and RNA from the same cell — unlocking how genetic variants in coding and non-coding regions influence disease.

Because more than 95% of disease-linked mutations live in non-coding DNA, traditional single-cell methods often miss them. SDR-seq solves this by capturing genome-wide variants alongside gene expression at high throughput, revealing how specific mutations alter cellular states.

Using patient-derived B-cell lymphoma samples, researchers showed that cells with more variants displayed stronger malignant signaling, demonstrating SDR-seq’s ability to connect genotype and phenotype with unprecedented precision.

By finally linking hidden non-coding variants to their functional effects, SDR-seq opens new possibilities for diagnosing disease, interpreting risk variants, and developing future therapies.

🧬 Science Today | Breakthrough Lets Scientists Grow Immune Cells They Couldn’t Before

Researchers at the University of British Columbia have unlocked a reliable way to grow helper T cells from stem cells in the lab — a cell type that was previously impossible to produce consistently. By precisely timing key developmental signals, the team coaxed stem cells into becoming powerful immune “conductors” that help activate and sustain anti-disease responses.

The advance addresses a longstanding obstacle in immune cell therapies, where the lack of scalable production limited how broadly these treatments could be applied. Growing both helper and killer T cells from stem cells could make off-the-shelf immune therapies more effective, affordable, and accessible for cancer and other diseases.

This breakthrough moves engineered cell therapies closer to being ready-made rather than patient-specific, with the potential to transform how immune-based treatments are manufactured and deployed.
