A new effort from the University of Mississippi is advancing how clinicians might treat chronic wounds by developing a 3D‑printed bandage that delivers natural antimicrobial compounds while supporting tissue repair. Chronic wounds such as diabetic ulcers and pressure sores can […]
A new advance from The Jackson Laboratory introduces a painless microneedle skin patch that can monitor immune activity directly from the skin, offering an alternative to blood draws and surgical biopsies. Researchers at JAX, working with MIT, designed the bandage‑like
A research team at Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) in Switzerland has developed a human mini‑bladder model that uncovers a key mechanism behind recurrent urinary tract infections, offering new insight into why some infections return even after treatment. The
Human Mini‑Bladder Model Reveals Why Some Urinary Tract Infections Keep Coming Back Read More »
Engineers at the University of Utah have introduced a lightweight robotic exoskeleton designed to help stroke survivors walk with greater stability and symmetry, addressing one of the most persistent challenges in post‑stroke rehabilitation. Many individuals who experience a stroke develop
A new development from MIT introduces a portable ultrasound sensor designed to make breast cancer screening more frequent, accessible, and timely for people at elevated risk. The research team created a compact imaging system that can be used at home
Portable Ultrasound Sensor Brings Earlier Breast Cancer Detection Into Homes and Clinics Read More »
A recent project from Texas A&M University introduces a catheter‑mounted sensor that can detect urinary tract infections at an earlier stage by pairing real time bacterial monitoring with a smartphone app. Urinary tract infections remain one of the most common
Smart Catheter Sensor Uses Smartphone Readout to Detect UTIs Earlier and More Accurately Read More »
A new study from the University of Pennsylvania reveals that an ultrathin electronic implant can guide lab‑grown pancreatic cells to mature into fully functional insulin‑secreting tissue, offering a potential path toward next generation cell therapies for diabetes. The research aimed
Texas A&M University researchers have introduced an oral biosensor designed to detect early molecular signs of disease by analyzing biomarkers present in saliva. The team developed the device to address a major limitation in preventive healthcare, where clinicians often lack
