Scientists at the Leibniz Institute of Photonic Technology (Leibniz IPHT) have developed a new microarray-based diagnostic platform that can help close vaccination gaps and quickly detect antibiotic-resistant bacteria.This article was originally published here

In the battle against mosquito-borne diseases that kill hundreds of thousands of people each year, scientists turned to an unlikely ally: a fungus that smells like flowers.This article was originally published here

High-speed atomic force microscopy (HS-AFM) is the only experimental technique to directly watch proteins in dynamic action. However, as a surface scanning technique with limited spatial resolution, HS-AFM will inevitably provide insufficient information for detailed […]

Researchers at Rice University have engineered living cells to use a 21st amino acid that illuminates protein changes in real time, providing a new method for observing changes within cells. The technique is effective in […]

Cellarity, a biotechnology company developing cell state-correcting therapies through integrated multi-omics and AI modeling, reports the publication of a manuscript in the journal Science, which articulates a framework for the integration of advanced transcriptomic datasets […]

When 115,000 tons of food waste hit Surrey’s processing facility each year, an invisible army goes to work—billions of microbes convert everything from banana peels to leftover pizza into renewable natural gas (RNG). Now, UBC […]

Some genetic disorders—such as cystic fibrosis, hemophilia and Tay Sachs disease—involve many mutations in a person’s genome, often with enough variation that even two individuals who share the same disorder might have a different combination […]

A team at McGill University studying ferroptosis, a form of cell death, have discovered that the process begins deep inside the cell, a finding that could lead to new treatments for cancer and neurodegenerative diseases.This […]

A team of researchers from Tel Aviv University and the Israel Oceanographic and Limnological Research Institute (IOLR) has conducted the first comprehensive ecological–biotechnological seaweed survey in Israel. Their findings suggest that the unique ecological conditions […]

Above Missouri’s wetlands, a drone quietly hums above flocks of migratory water birds, its camera capturing the ripples of movement below. With this technology, University of Missouri researchers are redefining how wildlife is studied and […]
