level. Sometimes this means producing therapeutic proteins that augment the body’s own supplies or that make up for genetic deficiencies, as in the first generation of biotech medications. (Gene therapy—insertion of genesencodinga needed protein into a patient’s body or cells—is a related ...
Developments in cellular biology also expanded the reach of biotechnology. In 1997, a team of Scottish researchers announced that they had cloned a sheep, who they named ‘Dolly,’ using a technique called somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT). Put simply, Dolly was a ‘copy’ of an adult ew...
produce energy, self-heal, are the next frontier in biology and material science and potentially a path towards a new kind of architecture. Although innovation in these fields is still far away from mainstream commercial use, it promises to dramatically change the image of the built environment....
out after watching Arnold Schwarzenegger films. Being biology students, we immediately started researching methods for the fastest gains. We studied various factors like: the effects of consuming creatine monohydrate and the different types of workouts. Indirectly, we covered part of our A-level ...
Biotechnology involves understanding how living organisms function at the molecular level, so it combines a number of disciplines including biology, physics, chemistry, mathematics, science, and technology. Modern biotechnology continues to make significant contributions to extending the human lifespan and ...
为了更全面和系统地研究微生物群落,通过整合多种单一菌株模型和宏基因组数据构建群落水平模型(Community-level GEM, Co-GEM),可以预测不同菌株之间的相互作用及群落整体代谢能力,揭示不同物种在群落中的功能角色以及与宿主疾病之间的潜在机制,并...
In addition to effectively and efficiently teaching cell biology laboratory techniques, this course design provided an opportunity for research training, career exploration, and mentoring. Students participated in active research projects, working with a skilled interdisciplinary team of researchers in a ...

Biotechnology is a field of applied biology that involves the use of living organisms and bioprocess in engineering, technology, medicine, public he...
The extraordinary success of mRNA vaccines against coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has renewed interest in mRNA as a means of delivering therapeutic proteins. Early clinical trials of mRNA therapeutics include studies of paracrine vascular endothelia
Cell Biology from Thomas Jefferson University. Following residency at St. Luke's Hospital, Dr. Yen completed a fellowship in the Department of Internal Medicine, Hematology, and Bone Marrow Transplantation at Yale University School of Medicine. Subsequently, he joined City of Hope as a staff ...
