A new technique published in JoVE uses MRI-guided microbubbles and focused ultrasound to disrupt the blood-brain barrier, potentially opening new treatment avenues for devastating conditions like Alzheimer's and brain cancers. The method is safer than current methods, which can leave large areas of the barrier exposed to toxins.
Researchers from the University of Victoria have developed a new 3D stem cell culture method, enabling scientists to study cell behavior in conditions similar to those in the body. This breakthrough has significant implications for regenerative medicine and other fields.
Researchers at the University of Pittsburgh have developed a novel way to culture tuberculosis bacteria, which could lead to new treatments and insights into its extraordinary resilience against environmental stresses. The bacteria's ability to form biofilms is thought to be a key factor in its resistance to treatment.
New technique allows scientists to observe development of brain cells for first time, shedding light on disease mechanism. The study could lead to new treatment options by understanding how these cells develop and function.
The conference, led by Stanford University's Medicine X, aims to bridge the gap between academia, technology, and healthcare. JoVE will publish selected submissions in a unique multimedia format, making findings transparently accessible to the scientific community.
Researchers from Cornell University created a healthier cigarette filter with lycopene and grape seed extract, drastically reducing toxic free radicals. The study demonstrates the potential for an alternative type of cigarette filter with a free radical scavenging additive.
Researchers from London-area hospitals and Oxford measure brain activity in infants to assess their pain response, providing a more reliable alternative to current methods.
Academic institutions in Sweden have rapidly adopted the Journal of Visualized Experiments (JoVE), a peer-reviewed video journal for biomedical sciences. Researchers in Sweden are among the world's fastest adopters of new technologies and find JoVE to be particularly useful.
Researchers demonstrate a new technique to study the impact of swimming jellyfish on ocean climate, using Self-Contained Underwater Velocimetry Apparatus (SCUVA) to track water movement. The study suggests that combined ocean life movements could have a significant impact on global climate.
Thomas Jefferson High School has become the first high school to subscribe to JoVE, a video-based research journal. The school's advanced equipment and digital resources will help students learn complex experimental techniques more effectively. This partnership aims to inspire future scientists by exposing them to cutting-edge research...
The Journal of Visualized Experiments (JoVE) will partner with Carl Zeiss MicroImaging to support the sharing of scientific information through open access. JoVE will film and edit three open-access video articles, which will undergo rigorous peer-review.
The Journal of Visualized Experiments (JoVE) is now offering free subscriptions to developing countries through the HINARI initiative. This move aims to address information inequality by providing access to visual content, including over 1,300 video-protocols on experimental approaches in various fields.
