Researchers from the University of Montreal Hospital Research Centre (CRCHUM) have developed an injectable biogel that can deliver anti-cancer agents directly into the tumors. The technique,...
Reseachers from Technion–Israel Institute of Technology and Boston University have developed a nanopore that identifies pathogens from their genomic characteristics. The instrument senses single molecules and detects...
Researchers from Sahlgrenska Academy have developed a new technique to prevent biofilm formation. Coating implants and catheters with “tissue plasminogen activator” prevents the infectious agent Staphylococcus aureus...
Scientists from the Australian research center CSIRO have developed a new coating method based on the prebiotic materials that generated the first biomolecules. The cell-friendly polymer allowed the...
An international, multidisciplinar team of scientists lead by researchers from Georgia Institute of Technology and University of South Australia have engineered an algae to deliver...
Addgene, possibly the largest platform for CRISPR plasmids, libraries, and resources for researchers shines light on this amazing new technology. Here, they give a brief...
Researchers from Brown University have engineered an extracellular matrix (ECM) without any artificial materials that could prevent using it as an implant. Cells were cultured to originate two...
Researchers from the University of Utah have developed a new technique to localize genomic damage sites. The method uses an artificial DNA base pair previously...
