| Personalized microrobots swim through biological barriers, deliver drugs to cells Posted: 07 Apr 2020 10:14 AM PDT Biohybrid robots on the micrometer scale can swim through the body and deliver drugs to tumors or provide other cargo-carrying functions. To be successful, they must consist of materials that can pass through the body's immune response, swim quickly through viscous environments and penetrate tissue cells to deliver cargo. Researchers fabricated biohybrid bacterial microswimmers by combining a genetically engineered E. coli MG1655 substrain and nanoerythrosomes, small structures made from red blood cells. |
| 'Smart toilet' monitors for signs of disease Posted: 06 Apr 2020 04:04 PM PDT There's a new disease-detecting technology in the lab, and its No. 1 source of data is number one. And number two. |
| The Milky Way's satellites help reveal link between dark matter halos and galaxy formation Posted: 06 Apr 2020 11:01 AM PDT Just like we orbit the sun and the moon orbits us, the Milky Way has satellite galaxies with their own satellites. Drawing from data on those galactic neighbors, a new model suggests the Milky Way should have an additional 100 or so very faint satellite galaxies awaiting discovery. |
