Keep up with the latest scientific discoveries, groundbreaking space exploration missions, and essential environmental research that are transforming our understanding of the world and beyond.
Attaching sugar molecules to proteins can affect protein activities in the cell — and this behavior can be exploited to treat diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCL), according to a recent...
A team of researchers has developed a new method for controlling lower limb exoskeletons using deep reinforcement learning. The method enables more robust and natural walking control for users of...
Researchers have discovered a new combination of drugs that significantly boosts the efficacy of anti-cancer treatments for colorectal cancers implanted in mice. The results also highlight a previously unknown mechanism...
A first-of-its-kind robotic glove is lending a “hand” and providing hope to piano players who have suffered a disabling stroke. Developed by researchers from Florida Atlantic University’s College of Engineering...
T cells experience different mechanical signals in different tissues. Researchers have engineered a tissue-mimicking hydrogel model to show that more elastic tissues induce T cells to become effector-like T cells...
With an eye toward early disease detection, synthetic biology engineers at the University of Wisconsin have designed and engineered bacteria that find and detect fragments of DNA shed from infectious...
This fully wireless ultrasound patch, which can capture detailed medical information and wirelessly transmit the data to a smart device, could represent a major step forward in at-home health care...
For most of our tissues and cells, a lack of oxygen, or hypoxia, is bad news. However, cancer cells can thrive in these conditions, rendering tumors less susceptible to anti-cancer...
Established by NIBIB in January, the BETA Center will serve as a hub for expert teams of technology developers at the NIH intramural program and beyond to work together to...
A team of Rice University engineers has launched a first of its kind, open-source software that constructs and uses personalized computer models of how individual patients move to optimize treatments...
