👋 Meet Lucy, one of our co-op students at abm!

Lucy is currently three months into her eight-month co-op term, where she’s gaining hands-on industry experience while continuing her Biology studies at UBC. As a student still building her scientific foundation, this role has been a great opportunity for Lucy to apply what she’s learned in school and explore new areas within the field.

Outside of work, Lucy loves spending time on the slopes 🏂. Snowboarding is one of her favourite winter activities (and she wishes she could go more often!). She also enjoys journaling ✍️, using it as a way to slow down, reflect, and appreciate the little moments in everyday life.

✨ Fun fact: Lucy started collecting Smiski blind boxes 📦 long before they became popular online!

🚀 Spotlight: Featuring Dr. Leona Ogene!

✨ Meet Dr. Leona Ogene (), a biomedical engineer using her platform to help future scientists feel seen, supported, and confident in their path. As a first-generation scholar and neurodivergent researcher, Leona’s journey into regenerative medicine shows the power of perseverance, self-advocacy, and representation in STEM.

🔬 Her work focuses on tissue engineering and cartilage repair — but what really sets her apart is how she breaks down what it actually looks like to navigate a PhD while managing ADHD, dyslexia, and the pressures of academia.

Understanding SYBR Green-Based qPCR 🧬

SYBR Green-based qPCR is a widely used technique for detecting and quantifying DNA by measuring fluorescence during amplification. By binding to double-stranded DNA, SYBR Green enables real-time monitoring of PCR product formation - making it a simple, sensitive, and cost-effective approach for gene expression analysis. Watch our full video on YouTube to learn more.

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.

⚡️ Mesothelial cells built for the long haul!
🔗 https://buff.ly/MJqr2lM

ABM’s Immortalized Human Mesothelial Cells – HPV E6/E7 (Cat. No. T0456) is a ready-to-use human mesothelial cell line derived from normal mesothelial tissue and immortalized by HPV-16 E6/E7 genes. These cells deliver a stable model of mesothelial biology—offering continuous growth and confirmed expression of mesothelial markers—so you can skip the time and effort of generating your own primary line.

✨ Ready-made cell line – no need to immortalize primary mesothelial cells yourself
✨ Characterized & stable – mesothelial marker expression verified, suitable for extended culture
✨ Adherent and reliable – validated for routine culture workflows
✨ Ideal for modeling mesothelial biology in a consistent, reproducible format

Save time and standardize your research!

🧬 Science Today | “Invisible” Immune Cells Destroy Cancer

MIT & Harvard scientists created stealth CAR-NK cells that evade immune attack and destroy tumors. By knocking down HLA genes and boosting PD-L1, these cells cleared cancer in mice — offering a safer, faster path to off-the-shelf cancer therapy.

🧬🤍 December is HIV/AIDS Awareness Month!

At abm, we’re supporting HIV research by curating specialized cell models that illuminate virus-host interactions. 📣 From cells engineered with dendritic cell receptors to T-cells with host gene knockdowns, our collection empowers studies of HIV entry, replication, and pathogenesis.

🔬 Highlights include:
🔹 T3390 | https://buff.ly/PCY31qB – NIH/3T3 cells expressing human DC-SIGN (a dendritic cell receptor that helps HIV attach to cells
🔹 T6332 | https://buff.ly/zRuvmz5 – HEK293T cells with stable CD4 & CCR5 expression (key HIV-1 entry receptors
🔹 T6124 | https://buff.ly/L39rmdA – Jurkat T cells with NonO gene knockdown (used to uncover how this host protein restricts HIV infection

…and many more.

🌊 Science Today | Ocean Bacteria Eat Plastic

Deep beneath the waves, scientists at KAUST have uncovered marine bacteria that feast on plastic. These microbes carry a special enzyme mark — the M5 motif — on their PETase enzyme, giving them the ability to digest PET, the tough plastic used in bottles and fabrics.

This breakthrough reveals how life is evolving to tackle human pollution. The M5 motif acts like a fingerprint, showing which bacteria have the power to break down plastic waste. Found in over 80% of global ocean samples — from surface gyres to deep-sea trenches — these microbes are quietly recycling our trash into carbon fuel for survival.

While this natural cleanup happens too slowly to solve the crisis alone, it could revolutionize industrial recycling. By mimicking the M5 motif, scientists may design faster, more efficient enzymes to close the plastic loop on land — turning waste into a resource instead of a burden.
