    Researcher Develop New Synthetic Genetic Circuits for Prefect Adaptation Function
    This study addresses the serious problems of poor stability, functional fragility and susceptibility to interference of synthetic genetic circuits in synthetic biology, and proposes the principle o... Since the sophisticated genetic circuits can be very subtle, external environmental variability and host evolutionary instability have emerged as key factors impeding the predictable design of gene...

    Women Are More Susceptible to Alzheimer's disease: New Evidence
    Moving forword, the team is extending this theory to numerous age-dependent chronic diseases such as diabetes, atherosclerosis, cancer, and aging. Epidemiological studies have shown that women are twice as likely as men to develop Alzheimer’s disease (AD), but the cause of this phenomenon has been unclear.Now, however, a study led by Prof. Y...

    Researchers Induced an Intracellular Polymerization Based Precision Medicine for Cancer Treatment
    "We believe that the precision tumor treatment method based on intracellular polymerization developed by this work will open a new era in polymer therapy for cancer treatment" Cancer is a malignant disease that causes abnormally high death rate. To date, few effective cancer treatment methods have been applied for patients with limited successful examples reported. For l...

    Researchers Develop New NFT-Based Framework for Tokenizing Patents
    The team proposed a layered conceptual NFT-based patent framework capable of guiding for businesses in taking advantage of NFTs in real-world problems such as grant patents, funding, biotechnology,... By taking advantage of blockchain technology, digital assets are broadly grouped into fungible and non-fungible tokens (NFT). NFT has widely attracted attention, and its protocols, standards, and a...
