Ion channels are narrow passageways that play a pivotal role in many biological processes. To model how ions move through ...

Scientists have uncovered an elegant biophysical trick that tuberculosis-causing bacteria use to survive inside human cells, ...

Platform-enabled vaccine design unlocks safer, more effective solutions with outer-membrane vesicles (OMVs) emerging as ...

By applying voltage to electrically control a new "transistor" membrane, researchers at Lawrence Livermore National ...

Researchers discover that hearing-essential proteins (TMC1/TMC2) also regulate cell membranes, and their malfunction is a primary cause of permanent hearing loss.

The global extracorporeal membrane oxygenation machine market is experiencing growth due to rise in the incidence of chronic diseases especially cardiac disease, and increase in focus of the ...

Membrane keyboards are one of the most common input devices, as they’re often found in budget laptops and desktop setups. They rely on pressure-sensitive layers (rubber domes) to register inputs. This ...

Researchers shrink solid-state nanopores to sub-nm size via voltage-driven precipitation/dissolution, creating tunable pores that mimic ion channels for studying confined ion transport.
