A team of scientists from over a dozen of the nation's top bioengineering programs have created a roadmap for developing and implementing a hiring process aimed at increasing diversity among biomedical engineering faculty.
Bioengineers can tailor the genomes of cells to create "cellular therapies" that fight disease, but they have found it difficult to design specialized activating proteins called transcription factors that can throw the switch ...
A team of bioengineers and biomedical scientists from the University of Sydney and the Children's Medical Research Institute (CMRI) at Westmead have used 3D photolithographic printing to create a complex environment for assembling ...
Cancer cells can evade the body's immune defenses by exploiting a normally helpful and ubiquitous group of molecules known as mucins. Now, Stanford researchers have engineered a biomolecule that removes mucins specifically ...
Pushing into a new chapter of technologically advanced biological sensors, scientists from the University of California San Diego and their colleagues in Australia have engineered bacteria that can detect the presence of ...
Chemotherapy is a mainstay of cancer treatment. While effective, this therapy indiscriminately kills rapidly dividing cells鈥攃ancerous or otherwise鈥攕o patients frequently experience severe side effects, ultimately limiting ...
Despite decades of global population growth, a global food crisis seems to be imminent again. Food productivity has been cut severely due to prolonged abnormal weather from intensifying climate change. In addition, the global ...
Aging is an inevitable phenomenon in the process of life, accompanied by the deterioration of physiological functions and increased susceptibility to diseases.
Developing disease-resistant, high-quality improved crop varieties to benefit agricultural producers and consumers may seem like a "hairy" task, but Texas A&M AgriLife Research scientists may have gotten to the root of the ...
