Sphere Fluidics rebrands to Sphere Bio
Sphere Fluidics today announced its rebranding to Sphere Bio. The name change marks a significant milestone in the Company’s development, reflecting its transition from a leading droplet-based microfluidics innovator to an established commercial provider of integrated life sciences tools and solutions.
Characterizing the spectrum of mitochondrial DNA deletion disease syndromes
Researchers from the Mitochondrial Medicine Program at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) have better characterized a spectrum of what were classically considered discrete mitochondrial DNA deletion disease syndromes.
CPRIT awards nearly $23 million to MD Anderson for cancer research projects
The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center today was awarded nearly $23 million from the Cancer Prevention and Research Institute of Texas (CPRIT) in support of 20 cancer research projects to advance new breakthroughs in discovery, translational, clinical and prevention science.
Human-specific gene variant may hold key to evolution of language
The origins of human language remain mysterious. Are we the only animals truly capable of complex speech? Are Homo sapiens the only hominids who could give detailed directions to a far-off freshwater source or describe the nuanced purples and reds of a dramatic sunset?
EMBL researchers reveal new structural insights into minor spliceosome function
In human cells, only a small proportion of the information written in genes is used to produce proteins. How does the cell select this information? A large molecular machine called the spliceosome continuously separates the coding and non-coding regions of our genes – and it's doing this even as you read these lines.
Plant immune responses may offer insights into human brain diseases
A groundbreaking study led by a team of researchers at the University of Kentucky's Martin-Gatton College of Agriculture, Food and Environment has revealed a surprising biochemical connection between plant immune responses and human neurological health.
How your immune system ages: Scientists reveal key changes over a lifetime
Scientists mapped how the human immune system evolves from birth to old age, revealing key changes that influence health, disease resistance, and aging. Their immune age model could help predict immune health and guide early interventions.
Research sheds light on resistance to novobiocin in Staphylococcus aureus
Announcing a new article publication for Zoonoses journal. Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Vancomycin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (VRSA) are critical pathogens identified by the WHO for their significant drug resistance.
New research shines light on position-specific hallmarks of cancer
A team led by the Cancer Immunogenomics group at the Josep Carreras Leukaemia Research Institute, the Computational Biology group at the Barcelona Supercomputing Center and the Germans Trias i Pujol Research Institute shows, for the first time, that within a tumor, the expression of the different hallmarks of cancer is not cell-specific, but rather position-specific.
