What if familiar lab formats could be redesigned to remove the weak points in permeability and absorbance testing? This article explores how design choices in common consumables can improve both speed and reproducibility in early-stage research.
AI is moving beyond drug design to answer a critical question: can a promising compound actually be manufactured at scale? By predicting synthetic feasibility early, machine learning tools are helping drug developers avoid costly failures, streamline R&D and design molecules that are both effective and practical to produce.
Gene therapy’s progress depends on reliable supply chains and efficient manufacturing. In this episode, we explore the challenges and strategies involved in plasmid production - an essential component in advancing life-changing therapies.
Scientists have created a new class of ultra-stable chiral molecules – a discovery that could lead to more precise drug design by preventing potentially harmful molecular “flipping” over time
Want to understand the real impact of AI in 3D sample analysis? This episode cuts straight to how machine learning is accelerating research and overcoming current limitations.
Researchers at The University of Osaka have found how structural changes in the VP1 protein of AAV vectors trigger genome release - offering insights for improving the safety, efficiency and stability of gene therapy delivery systems.
Researchers at the Fralin Biomedical Research Institute are developing a targeted KCNT1 inhibitor that has shown early promise in reducing seizures in preclinical models.
Researchers at POSTECH have developed a new 3D brain model that closely mimics the structure and function of human brain tissue – marking a major advance in early disease detection.
Chiesi Group and Key2Brain have signed a global license agreement to develop two blood-brain barrier-crossing enzyme replacement therapies for alpha-mannosidosis and Krabbe disease – with the aim to help patients with limited treatment options.
Shift Bioscience has announced new aging research, highlighting the discovery of SB000. This novel single-gene target reverses cellular aging without activating dangerous pluripotency pathways.
Researchers at the University of Oklahoma have found a way to improve drugs by adding just one carbon atom. This simple change could speed up drug discovery and lower costs.
Despite the promise of gene therapies, automated red blood cell exchange (aRBCX) remains an underutilised therapy in the management of sickle cell disease (SCD). In this article, Dr Aaron Haubner and Carly Newton of Terumo Blood and Cell Technologies, highlight the urgent need for partnerships and equitable access to this…
