Tumor-Targeted Nanotherapeutics for Glioblastoma
In an effort to overcome barriers to the treatment of glioblastoma (GBM), targeted nanotherapeutics have emerged as promising drug delivery systems with the potential to improve pharmacokinetic profiles and therapeutic efficacy.
Global Health and Disease Diplomacy
In a recent paper published in Global Challenges, researchers from the Centre for Global Health Policy, University of Sussex, report a new mechanism for encouraging the international sharing of virus data that has been created in the field of influenza.
“What We Need is More Science and Less Rhetoric!”
Lynda Walsh’s advanced review introduces readers to the history and theory of rhetoric to provide readers with a few simple but powerful tools that can help them better understand and craft arguments about climate science.
Nanoparticles on a Drug Delivery Mission
To design nanoproducts with improved therapeutic efficiency and controlled toxicity, we need to understand the mechanisms of cellular uptake and exocytosis of nanoparticles.
How We Develop: Developmental Systems and the Emergence of Complex Behaviors
Forget the “nature vs nurture” debate, learn the developmental systems perspective in this special collection, which aims to help scientists, parents, teachers, and policy makers understand child development.
Manipulating Light with Magnetic Bacteria
Magnetic bacteria devices can manipulate light similar to liquid crystals in display and spatial light modulator technology.
Borrowing Ideas from Nature: Sustainable Packaging Materials Inspired by Plant Cuticles
Plant cuticle-inspired composites as sustainable alternative to traditional plastics for packaging applications.
Particulate Delivery Systems for Vaccination against Bioterrorism Agents and Emerging Infectious Pathogens
Nano- and micro-particulate vaccine delivery systems minimize side effects, trigger targeted and robust immune responses, and protect and stabilize vaccine components
