Boston University Study Reveals New Lung Aerosol Deposition Pattern

🔬 Research in Progress! Diego Cortés is conducting research at the Canadian Light Source's BioMedical Imaging and Therapy (BMIT) beamline, investigating how different dialysis membrane materials interact with fibrinogen, a key blood protein involved in clotting. By better understanding these membrane–protein interactions, this work aims to support the development of safer and more biocompatible dialysis membranes for improved patient care. We can't wait to see the exciting findings from this research. Best of luck, Diego! 👏🧪 #research #innovation #kidney #universityofsaskatchewan #usask #research

NIH asks public how to reward research that can be replicated - https://lnkd.in/eZkSncu6 NIH is seeking public input on ways to reward rigorous, reusable biomedical research, but the request does not change current grant or promotion rules....

New NIH funding is supporting research at UVA School of Engineering to develop laboratory tissue models that more closely mimic living human tissue—an advance that could improve drug testing, deepen our understanding of disease and help reduce reliance on animal testing. With a five-year, $2.1 million NIH Maximizing Investigators’ Research Award, biomedical and chemical engineering researcher Steven Caliari and collaborators will develop advanced hydrogel-based models to study how cells respond to their mechanical environment and how fibrosis develops across a range of diseases. The work reflects UVA’s growing strength in creating human-relevant research tools that can accelerate discovery while offering alternatives to animal models.

CLARISURGE was presented during the visit of Prof. Dr. Kemal Memişoğlu, Minister of Health of the Republic of Türkiye, to Izmir Biomedicine and Genome Center, together with Prof. Dr. Bayram Yılmaz, Rector of Dokuz Eylül University. During the laboratory visit, Prof. Dr. Serhat Tozburun introduced the objectives of CLARISURGE and discussed the project’s development of precision endoscopic technologies for biomedical applications. The visit created an important setting to share ERC-funded research with national health and university leadership, while highlighting the role of interdisciplinary biomedical engineering, optical imaging, and translational research in advancing health technologies in Türkiye. @universitemdeu @ibg_merkezi #CLARISURGE #ERC #EuropeanResearchCouncil #HorizonEurope #Endoscopy #OesophagealResearch #Biophotonics #BiomedicalEngineering #MedicalTechnology #NonThermalAblation #SeeAndTreat #TranslationalResearch #IBG #TozburunLab #TLAB

National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB) awards Jing Wang a Trailblazer R21 Award for new and early-stage investigators. Dr. Jing Wang, Assistant Professor in the Department of Chemical & Biological Engineering at Iowa State University and member of the Nanovaccine Institute, was awarded an NIH grant to develop a bioinspired strategy for identifying drug combinations that overcome disease-specific immunosuppression.

🧬👏 This is exactly the conversation the field needs. For many years, the emphasis has understandably been on pushing the technical boundaries of spatial omics—higher plex, greater resolution, faster workflows and ever-expanding datasets. Those innovations have laid an incredible foundation. However, the next phase of the field will be defined by something different: translation. For spatial technologies to become part of routine research and, ultimately, clinical practice, success won’t be measured solely by technical performance. It will depend on delivering: 🔹 Robust and reproducible results across laboratories 🔹 Seamless integration into existing research and pathology workflows 🔹 Straightforward data analysis that researchers and clinicians can trust 🔹 Clear evidence that the technology improves biological insight and, most importantly, patient outcomes ❤️ It’s encouraging to see the discussion evolving from “What can this technology do?” to “How can this technology make a meaningful difference?” That shift in mindset is what will accelerate adoption and unlock the next wave of impact for spatial biology. Exciting times ahead for our field. 🚀 #SpatialBiology #SpatialOmics #PrecisionMedicine #TranslationalResearch #CancerResearch #Pathology #Genomics #LifeSciences #Biotechnology #MolecularBiology #Innovation #ClinicalResearch https://lnkd.in/gSVcUaFH
