When living cells grow, divide or respond to drugs, they give off tiny amounts of heat that offer information about what the ...

Cell–matrix interactions, mediated by cellular force and matrix remodeling, result in dynamic reciprocity that drives numerous biological processes and disease progression. Currently, there is no ...

The recently passed FDA Modernization Act aims to integrate advanced in vitro models of different diseases into the drug development process. This legislation opens the door for alternative ...

Whether for drug screening or toxicity testing, stem cell-based 3D tissue models are key to biomedical research. However, producing cell aggregates in bioreactors is highly complex and cost-intensive.

A new fluorescent sensor is giving scientists an unprecedented view of how cells respond to DNA damage, capturing the repair process as it unfolds in real time. The tool, developed at Utrecht ...

More accurate navigation systems and improved wireless communications may not come from traditional electronics, but rather from atoms. Researchers at Penn State and the National Institute of ...

In a quiet lab at Utrecht University, researchers have built a tool that lets you watch one of life’s most serious crises unfold in real time. Inside every cell, DNA breaks, repairs, and sometimes ...

Diamond quantum nanoprobes detect immune cell inflammation by sensing electric charge shifts, opening a new path for real-time single-cell monitoring in immunology and cancer research. (Nanowerk ...
