MIT engineers have devised a new way to deliver certain drugs in higher doses with less pain, by injecting them as a suspension of tiny crystals. Once under the skin, the crystals assemble into a drug "depot" that could last ...
Teeth from sharks and rays can be used to study their diet, but one of the biggest challenges in shark science is collecting samples from rare or protected species.
The earliest days after fertilization, once a sperm cell meets an egg, are shrouded in scientific mystery. The process of how a humble single cell becomes an organism fascinates scientists across disciplines. For some animals, ...
Millions of people worldwide are affected by African sleeping sickness, Chagas disease and other life-threatening infections caused by microscopic parasites borne by insects such as the tsetse fly.
New magnetic nanoparticles in the shape of a cube sandwiched between two pyramids represent a breakthrough for treating ovarian tumors and possibly other types of cancer, according to the Oregon State University researchers ...
Researchers at Michigan State University have refined an innovation that has the potential to improve safety, reduce severe injury and increase survival rates in situations ranging from car accidents, sports, law enforcement ...
A new study published in npj Science of Food reveals a breakthrough in cultured meat production, using Aloe vera as a natural, scalable, and cost-effective scaffold. This research was led by Dr. Gilad Gome, under the guidance ...
The journal Advanced Materials recently published a study introducing a new method for monitoring molecular processes deep within tissue. Developed at the Technion–Israel Institute of Technology, the innovation is expected ...
In biology, seeing can lead to understanding, and researchers in Professor Edward Boyden's lab at the McGovern Institute for Brain Research are committed to bringing life into sharper focus. With a pair of new methods, they ...
Cells attach to each other through carefully arranged molecules. A Kobe University research team has now found that the way they organize to find their proper places is similar to how grease drops self-organize in soup.
