Researchers at Moffitt Cancer Center have developed a novel method for the scalable synthesis of withanolides, a class of naturally occurring compounds with significant potential in cancer treatment. This groundbreaking approach, published in Science Advances [1], could revolutionise cancer research by providing a reliable and efficient means of producing these vital compounds in large quantities.
A team of engineers at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) has developed a groundbreaking microscopy method that promises to revolutionise biomedical imaging, digital pathology, and drug screening. The new technique, called Angular Ptychographic Imaging with Closed-form method (APIC), builds upon and surpasses the capabilities of its predecessor, Fourier ptychographic microscopy (FPM).
Scientists at King’s College London have developed a rapid method for creating cyclic peptides, potentially accelerating the production of new antibiotics to combat antimicrobial resistance (AMR). The research, published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society [1], demonstrates a technique that reduces synthesis time from hours or days to mere minutes.
