Computer modeling, protein development propel cell engineering
Recent advances in bioengineering and computational modeling have given researchers the ability to examine complex biological processes with molecular-level detail
A step toward a better way to make gene therapies
New method for delivering DNA into stem cells and immune cells safely, rapidly and economically
A novel method to precisely deliver therapeutics inside the body
Researchers are interfacing chemical biology and nanotechnology to develop ultrasound-controlled nanomaterials that can provide on-demand, high precision delivery of proteins into human cells
A ‘cardiac patch with bioink’ developed to repair heart
A joint research team developed an ‘in vivo priming’ with heart-derived bioink. Using engineered stem cells and 3D bioprinting technology, they began developing medicines for cardiovascular diseases
Modeling the human eye in a dish
Researchers develop a novel human stem cell model to study eye development, biology and disease in a dish
Using alveolar epithelia as a model for corona infection
Researchers are using organ-like cell cultures to investigate compounds to combat the new virus
Advances in production of retinal cells for treating blindness
Researchers discovered a way to refine the production of retinal cells from embryonic stem cells for treating blindness in the elderly. Using the CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing, they have also managed to modify the cells so that they can hide from the immune system to prevent rejection
Suction forces enable precise bioprinting
Aspiration-assisted technique could be used in regenerative medicine, tissue engineering and the creation of “organs-on-a-chip” for drug testing and disease modelling
