Scientists have uncovered an elegant biophysical trick that tuberculosis-causing bacteria use to survive inside human cells, ...

Platform-enabled vaccine design unlocks safer, more effective solutions with outer-membrane vesicles (OMVs) emerging as ...

By applying voltage to electrically control a new "transistor" membrane, researchers at Lawrence Livermore National ...

Ion channels are narrow passageways that play a pivotal role in many biological processes. To model how ions move through these tight spaces, pores need to be fabricated at very small length scales.

There are four stages to epiretinal membranes (ERMs). ERMs may gradually worsen as they progress through the stages, with the fourth stage presenting a greater likelihood of vision loss. An epiretinal ...

The global extracorporeal membrane oxygenation machine market is experiencing growth due to rise in the incidence of chronic diseases especially cardiac disease, and increase in focus of the ...

Membrane keyboards are one of the most common input devices, as they’re often found in budget laptops and desktop setups. They rely on pressure-sensitive layers (rubber domes) to register inputs. This ...

Researchers shrink solid-state nanopores to sub-nm size via voltage-driven precipitation/dissolution, creating tunable pores that mimic ion channels for studying confined ion transport.
