A UVA engineer is developing microfluidic devices and AI-powered computational tools to isolate and study rare circulating cells, which could lead to better treatments for diseases like cancer and infection. The technology aims to integrate with electronics and systems to measure single-cell physical properties on a microchip.
Researchers developed new chemical probes to track individual enzymes, enabling direct measurement of protein activity and correcting prior limitations. This allows for a clearer picture of molecular logic in cells undergoing programmed cell death, potentially informing drug discovery.
A research team from Nara Institute of Science and Technology developed a dynamic microfluidic channel that adjusts to particle size, increasing impedance flow cytometry's sensitivity and accuracy. The platform also leverages clogging as a strategy to optimize performance.
Researchers at CNIC uncover how the heart forms during earliest embryonic development, shedding light on congenital heart defects and regenerative medicine. The heart originates from two separate cell populations that coordinate their formation simultaneously.
The Rice team created a low-cost, pump-free flow cytometer that uses gravity-driven slug flow to analyze cells with similar accuracy as conventional devices. The device is powered by AI and can count specific immune cells from unpurified blood samples within minutes.
Scientists have developed a new method to deliver genetic information to stem cells using nanoparticles coated with a specific polymer, enabling more efficient control over cellular differentiation. This innovation has the potential to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of regenerative medicine treatments.
A team of scientists created a new, fast, and precise method for analyzing cells in tissue samples from cancer patients without the need for a trained pathologist. The method uses artificial intelligence to evaluate data produced by a technique called real-time deformability cytometry.
Researchers have created PicoShells, microscopic particles that can speed up the growth and analysis of microorganisms, including algae. This new tool enables faster identification of cell strains suitable for mass production, potentially shortening R&D timelines by months.
Researchers have developed a new cytometry platform to detect rare cells in blood with high throughput and low cost. The technique uses magnetic bead labelling and alternating magnetic fields to enrich and detect target cells, achieving a limit of detection of 10 cells per millilitre.
The FASEB MARC Program has selected Dr. George Jules to receive a $2,000 travel award for his poster/platform presentation at the 2012 XXVII Congress of the International Society for Advancement of Cytometry. The program aims to increase diversity in biomedical research by promoting underrepresented minority students and scientists.
