Many medicines require careful dosing, yet doctors often rely on occasional blood tests that provide only brief snapshots of drug levels. This approach can make it difficult to understand how a medicine moves through the body over time. Researchers at […]

Bladder cancer treatment often falls short because chemotherapy drugs struggle to penetrate deeply into tumor tissue, limiting their effectiveness and requiring longer exposure times or higher doses. Researchers at the University of Edinburgh and Xiamen University have developed algae based
Algae Microbots Improve Drug Delivery for Bladder Cancer Treatment Read More »
Glioblastoma remains one of the most difficult cancers to treat because its tumor cells adapt quickly and often survive even the most aggressive therapies. Researchers are developing new approaches that can deliver multiple drugs directly to the tumor site in
Nanofiber Based Multidrug Platform Offers New Strategy Against Recurrent Glioblastoma Read More »
Many treatments for cancer and cardiovascular disease struggle to deliver drugs to the right place without harming healthy tissue. A University of Central Florida researcher has created smart microbubbles that carry therapeutic agents directly to diseased areas and release them
Smart Microbubbles Deliver Targeted Therapy for Cancer and Heart Disease Read More »
Cancer drugs often fail because they do not reach the right part of the cell, yet scientists have had no reliable way to track where a drug accumulates inside a living cell. Existing methods usually require killing the cell first,
New Single‑Cell Technique Reveals Exactly Where Cancer Drugs Go Inside Living Cells Read More »
Treating skin wounds often relies on ointments or light therapy, but both approaches have a similar problem: it is hard to deliver the right dose over time. Too much ointment can cause side effects, and too much light can reduce

Chemotherapy remains one of the most widely used cancer treatments, but it often affects the entire body rather than just the tumor. Because these drugs target fast‑dividing cells, they also damage healthy tissues like hair follicles, the digestive tract, and
Age‑related diseases are rising quickly as more people live into their 60s, 70s, and 80s, yet scientists still lack fast, reliable ways to study how human tissues age or how potential anti‑aging treatments actually work. Traditional research tools are slow,
Cell‑based drug delivery has long promised a way to provide continuous, therapeutic‑level dosing from a single implant, but the approach has been limited by a fundamental biological constraint: densely packed cells cannot survive without a steady supply of oxygen. This

Many diagnostic tests still rely on large optical instruments that sit in centralized laboratories, making it difficult for patients to access rapid, convenient sampling. These systems depend on external lasers, bulky optics, and controlled environments, which limits their use outside
