In living organisms, cells have a very high capacity to process and communicate information by moving molecules or ions through tiny channels that span the cell membrane. UC Santa Cruz…
Scientists investigate the unique absorption spectra of myelinated nerves as a way to visualize and differentiate them from their surroundings. Invasive medical procedures, such as surgery requiring local anesthesia, often…
Using a standardized assessment, researchers in the UK compared the performance of a commercially available artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm with human readers of screening mammograms. Results of their findings were…
MHH researchers are working on vascular prostheses made from the blood protein fibrin. The biocompatible alternative to synthetic plastic prostheses is now to be made increasingly fit for clinical use…
A prototype sensor that measures glucose levels in saliva could eventually offer a simple, rapid and painless way for people to monitor their diabetes, according to the KAUST researchers behind…
University of Melbourne researchers have developed a fast, inexpensive and scalable method for engineering blood vessels from natural tissue. Co-led by ARC Future Fellow Associate Professor Daniel Heath and Redmond…
