Gene expression tuning made easy
Have you ever wished to tune endogenous gene expression? Wait no longer.
In this “Behind the paper” blog post, I will present you our new toolkit, CasTuner, which is specifically designed to tune endogenous gene expression. I will summarize how CasTuner works, how to and why you should use it.
A quantitative peek into the superresolution subcellular world
Incorporating a physical model differentiating in-focus and out-of-focus emissions eliminates background fluorescence without affecting genuine signals. With this added to the sparse deconvolution pipeline, we preserve weak signals and minimize artifacts while achieving a sub-70 nm resolution.
Organoids facilitate studies on crosstalk of niches and adult stem cells
Our new paper published on npj Regenerative Medicine provides new insight to the role of macrophages on mammary stem cell fate determination and mammary homeostasis maintanence.
An AI-powered wearable skin
We report an artificial intelligence powered resistive skin that can disentangle a single biosignal into multiple useful biometric data.
New bioengineering strategies to improve crop photosynthesis and address global crop growing challenge
A study led by University of Liverpool scientists has revealed a new way of using synthetic biology to improve crop growth, meeting a significant challenge to increase crop productivity in a changing climate with a growing population.
