DNA nanotechnology provides detailed monitoring of single cells

DNA nanotechnology provides cell-surface sensors for real-time monitoring of single cells, including potential use in personalized medicine to test which drugs would be suitable for which individuals.

Nanotechnology therapy for head and neck cancer shows promise

A nanotechnology therapy using targeted dendrimers shows promise against head and neck cancer in experiments in which human tumors are implanted into immunocompromised mice.

First synthetic organ transplant made possible by nanotechnology

The world’s first synthetic organ transplant was a replica windpipe made from a nanocomposite scaffold seeded with the patient’s own adult stem cells.

An evolution machine to accelerate nanotechnology development?

Will an inexpensive automated evolution machine accelerate the development of molecular machine systems by simultaneously evolving multiple parts to improve function?

Handling flexible parts in RNA nanotechnology

New computational method screens for small molecules that bind to RNA molecules that move through a variety of conformations.

Nanotechnology protects mice infected with lethal dose of flu virus

Treatment of mice previously infected with a lethal dose of flu virus with a nanotechnology-based drug lowered viral load a thousand fold.
