Description:: The last decade has witnessed a rapid transformation in our understanding of the structure of chromatin, the nuclear complex of DNA and its structural proteins. While, barring mutations, the DNA sequence in each cell of the human body is the same, it is the structure of the chromatin complex that...

Description:: Microfluidic technologies enable multi-tissue culture and precise control of media exchange and therefore have significant potential to create more complex in vitro models of reproductive systems, including endocrine cycles. However, microfluidic technologies have largely been applied to gamete-level culture in reproductive biology, with very little progress in organ-level culture. Herein...

Description:: Nanocarriers are nanometer-sized (1-1000 nm) structures capable of encapsulating cargo. This encapsulation can drastically alter the pharmacokinetic properties of the cargo, while also allowing for the rational design and engineering of the nanocarrier itself. Poly(ethylene glycol)-block-poly(propylene sulfide) is an amphiphilic diblock copolymer capable of self-assembling into diverse nanocarriers. The purpose...
