A powerful laser system for driving sophisticated experiments in attosecond science

This new laser system enables an entirely new class of experiments in simple atomic and small molecular systems, as well as high fidelity investigations of more complex molecules.

NanoVelcro microchips could someday noninvasively diagnose prenatal conditions

Scientists have developed a device that provides sensitive results, but in a less invasive way: a blood test.

Nano-in-micro stem cell delivery could rescue blood flow after injury

Researchers combine micro and nano approaches to improve stem cell therapies and outcomes after ischemia, or inadequate blood supply.

Nanoparticle-based glue to seal bleeding and guide surgery

First nanoparticle-based adhesive with imaging contrast effect in CT and ultrasound was successfully tested in animals and showed less toxicity than the FDA-approved glue CA-Lp.

Titanium dioxide nanoparticles can exacerbate colitis

When intestinal cells absorb titanium dioxide particles, this leads to increased inflammation and damage to the intestinal mucosa in mice with colitis.

Cell-permeable nanobodies

Scientists report on the synthesis and applications of nanobodies they introduced into living cells.

Supramolecular materials with a time switch

Self-disposing supramolecular materials with a tunable lifetime.
