Columbia University engineers have created an injectable hydrogel using extracellular vesicles (EVs) extracted from yogurt. EVs are nanoscale particles secreted by cells that carry proteins, RNA, and other bioactive molecules. In this study, EVs serve a dual purpose: they act […]
An international team led by the University of Melbourne has developed a non-invasive online test that detects latent toxoplasmosis infection by analyzing subtle changes in reaction time. The test is especially effective in individuals with RhD-negative blood types, where infection

Researchers at Mass General Brigham and the University of Toronto have developed a swallowable biosensor pill called PRIM (Pill for ROS-responsive Inflammation Monitoring) that detects intestinal inflammation by releasing a visible blue dye in response to elevated levels of reactive
Researchers from Johns Hopkins Medicine, Indiana University, the University of Maryland School of Medicine, and Oregon Health & Science University have developed a powerful new computational platform that simulates the behavior of living cells—offering a virtual testing ground for biological
Researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign have developed a precision drug delivery system that combines magnetic steering with light-triggered release, offering a new approach to targeted therapies—especially for cancer. The system uses lipid vesicles, which are microscopic containers similar
