Genetically-engineered olfactory cells successfully bypass the BBB to kill brain cancer tumours.
Olfactory neurons are cells in the nasal cavity which perceive odors, passing the information along to the brain, and have the ability to regenerate. They
Nanotechnology
Nextgen wearable technology can measure single molecules from a nanolitre of blood in real-time.
A wearable that can monitor the health of a person through the exchange of information via internet without requiring human intervention is the next evolution
Study provides proof-of-concept for the oral delivery of nanoparticles.
It is known that oral administration is a preferred method of drug delivery, and that formulation into nanoparticles can improve drug stability in the harsh gastrointestinal
Electronic cell-sized nanobots can sense their environment, store data.
Nanorobotics is the development of machines or robots whose components are on the scale of a nanometre. Theoretical discussion of nanobots, involve specific design issues
New nanosensor can live-track a proteins’ pathway through the cell.
Membrane proteins are a foundational component of every cell in the human body and play a vital role in the cell’s structure, metabolism and transport.
