Researchers build anthrobots from human airway cells that self-assemble, move, self-heal, and reverse aging markers, offering insights into synthetic life systems. (Nanowerk Spotlight) What kinds of ...

A research team from Osaka Metropolitan University have developed a donor-acceptor-donor molecule that can spontaneously self-assemble into nanoscale structures and offer a more stable route to ...

Osaka Metropolitan University scientists have created a molecule that naturally forms p/n junctions, structures that are ...

A team of researchers at Cukurova University, a research university in Adana, Turkey, announce several ongoing patents that are said to provide a simple, more cost-effective way to create a channel or ...

LMU researchers have developed a new strategy for manufacturing nanoscale structures in a time- and resource-efficient manner. Macromolecules such as cellular structures or virus capsids can emerge ...

Scientists have developed a biological system which lets cells form a desired shape by molding their surrounding material -- in the first instance creating a self-curving cornea. The astonishing video ...

In this setting, the cells form self-forming structures referred to as “organoids”. Methodology Cell cultures have largely been grown in a monolayer which lacks more complex in vivo interactions ...
