Researchers at the Nano Life Science Institute (WPI-NanoLSI), Kanazawa University, report in ACS Applied Nano Materials a new method to precisely measure nuclear elasticity—the stiffness or softness ...
Researchers developed a versatile nanorobot with propulsion and payload modules. The two reusable modules autonomously ...
A team at the University of Basel, Switzerland, has developed a versatile nanorobot with propulsion and payload modules. The ...
For roughly 400 years, microscopes have allowed us to observe increasingly smaller details. Today's most advanced instruments can peer deep into living cells, helping researchers study diseases such ...
Established laboratory tests mainly capture average values across many cells and show, for example, how many cancer cells survive after contact with immune cells.
Immunotherapies are a promising approach in the fight against cancer. Researchers at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) ...
A new study reveals a simple and fast, label-free way to distinguish aggressive cancer cells by how they physically behave. Researchers at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem have developed this novel ...
New NE-AFM method measures nuclear stiffness in living cells. It shows cancer nuclei change softness with chromatin and environment, aiding diagnosis and treatment. By employing a technique called ...
