Instrument for deep and convoluted blood vessel networks
05.12.2019
A team led by Professor Sylvain Martel at the Polytechnique Montréal Nanorobotics Laboratory has developed a novel approach to tackling one of the biggest challenges of endovascular surgery: how to reach the most difficult-to-access physiological locations.
Treatment for brain tumors uses electrospun fiber
04.12.2019
Researchers with the University of Cincinnati used coaxial electrospinning to create a treatment for glioblastoma multiforme.
Making higher-energy light to fight cancer
03.12.2019
Researchers use nontoxic silicon nanocrystals to convert low-energy photons into high-energy ones, bringing scientists closer to developing photodynamic treatments for cancer.
Cutting nanoparticles down to size
29.11.2019
A new technique in chemistry could pave the way for producing uniform nanoparticles for use in drug delivery systems.
Photodiodes with increased absorption of light developed
28.11.2019
The near-infrared light is a light source with the shortest wavelength, indicated outside of the red color in the light spectrum. The near-infrared light has been widely used in optical communications, medical lasers, LiDAR of self-driving vehicles, and security and surveillance instruments, ranging from private to defense industry.
Electrochemical platform for cell-free synthetic biology
27.11.2019
Scientists at the University of Toronto and Arizona State University have developed the first direct gene circuit to electrode interface by combining cell-free synthetic biology with state-of-the-art nanostructured electrodes.
Studying the structure of self-organizing materials
26.11.2019
This new method can take 3D micro and nano-printers to a new level: an international group of scientists with IKBFU professor Anatoliy Snigirev among them has published an article that proposes a new method for studying the structure of complexly organized materials of both artificial and natural origin.
Light at the end of the nanotunnel
15.11.2019
Using a new type of nanoreactor, researchers at Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden, have succeeded in mapping catalytic reactions on individual metallic nanoparticles.
How artificial intelligence can transform psychiatry
14.11.2019
New technologies could help psychiatrists better diagnose and monitor patients, but distrust abounds.
Synapses in 3D: new method to map brain structures
13.11.2019
Our brain consists of countless nerve cells that transmit signals from one cell to the next. The connections between these cells, the synapses, provide a key to understanding how our memory works. An American research team has now succeeded in identifying these switching points in millimeter-sized tissue with a light microscope on the basis of their structure.
