Early in tumor development, circulating tumor cells (CTCs) detach from primary or metastatic lesions and are important ...
Old-school electrical engineers—and plenty of older research scientists, even biologists like me—remember the days of building circuits from parts: capacitors, resistors, and transistors. The creation ...
Stephen Quake, a bioengineer and applied physicist at Stanford University, has always been interested in the interface between physics and biology. During his work at the California Institute of ...
A research group from Zhejiang University has developed a computationally-assisted wearable system for continuous cortisol monitoring (CWSCCM), integrating advanced technologies including molecularly ...
Microfluidics is an interdisciplinary field that combines principles from physics, chemistry, and engineering to create devices that can process and analyze minuscule volumes of liquids. Often, ...
When you think of micro- or nanotechnology, you likely think of small electronics like your phone, a tiny robot or a microchip. But COVID-19 tests – which have proven to be central to controlling the ...
