Inspired by smoke detectors and smart home monitors, scientists are genetically engineering houseplants to sense harmful chemicals from mold and other kinds of fungi—and…
Scientists at Newcastle University have 3D printed the world's first human corneas. By creating a special bio-ink using stem cells mixed together with alginate…
Small antibodies can work inside cells, and their size allows them to wend deep into tissues, which regular antibodies have a hard time penetrating.…
Lenses with pliable, transparent electronics can measure glucose levels from tears in the eye—and warn wearers if they get too high. The lenses have…
Approximately 10–15 percent of breast cancer cases do not respond to treatment with hormone therapy, which means that they are more aggressive and often…
Researchers fluorescently labeled fat cells in fruit fly pupae—the developmental stage between larva and adult—and then cut a small hole in the pupae with…
Amniotic fluid, the protective liquid surrounding an unborn baby, is discarded as medical waste during cesarean section deliveries. However, there is increasing evidence that this…
