Researchers develop miRNA-tunable living interface for neurovascular remodeling
LIFES design. LIFES transmits topographic, piezoelectric, and photopyroelectric signals for cellular modulation, allowing fine-tuning of exosome secretion and promoting neurovascular remodeling. Credit: SIAT A research team led by Dr. Du Xuemin from the Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology (SIAT), Chinese Academy of Sciences, reported a living interface with the unique feature of sustained secretion of bioactive exosomes with tunable content…

Ocean surface microlayer: Researchers study ocean-atmosphere interface
Andrew Wozniak, an associate professor at the University of Delaware, co-led a research expedition aboard the university’s research vessel Hugh R. Sharp to study the surface microlayers of the North Atlantic. Here, researchers work with a rosette sampler, a device that uses a shard of glass to collect water samples from the deep ocean. The glass slab is immersed in…
