A Florida State University computational scientist is paving the way for future medical breakthroughs by developing ...

As we age, our bodies change and degenerate over time in a process called senescence. Stem cells, which have the unique ability to change into other cell types, also experience senescence, which ...

A project that began as a Gates Foundation-funded effort to expand contraceptive options, particularly in developing nations, has led to the development of a new method to deliver certain drugs in ...

MIT engineers have devised a new way to deliver certain drugs in higher doses with less pain, by injecting them as a suspension of tiny crystals. Once under the skin, the crystals assemble into a drug ...

Researchers at the University of Toronto see a future where a single injection under the eyelid could replace months of daily eye drops to treat glaucoma, a leading cause of blindness. A team led by ...

The blood-brain barrier, essential for protecting the central nervous system, also restricts drug delivery to this region. Thus, delivering drugs across the blood-brain barrier is an active research ...

A method developed by a research group at Tampere University seeks specific molecules that can target desired tissues through the bloodstream and penetrate tissues by passing through cells. This ...

A new method seeks specific molecules that can target desired tissues through the bloodstream and penetrate tissues by passing through cells. This innovation could help solve issues related to drug ...

This study investigates the effect of amine functional groups in ZIF-8 metal–organic frameworks on the loading and release of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). The facile and cost-effective solvent-assisted ...

Researchers have demonstrated that microscopic drug delivery containers can be magnetically steered to their targets, advancing the development of precision medicine for treating diseases such as ...

South Korean researchers have confirmed a technology that bypasses the blood-brain barrier — long considered the greatest ...

Duke biomedical engineers have developed a new way to deliver a broad range of peptide-based drugs orally that works as well as injection – the traditional method.
