An Ohio State University research team’s revolutionary breakthrough in nanotechnology may one day rewrite human healing by developing brand-new cells inside an injured or ailing patient’s body. Referred to as Tissue Nanotransfection (THT) in findings published by Nature Nanotechnology, the device converts adult ...
Proving We've Got So Much More To Learn...Just when you thought science knows all there is to know about the human body, then comes along the rumors of a new human organ discovered? It’s true, it seems there is still much to learn about the human body, according to writings in The Lancet Gastroenterology and ...
Much is happening in the world of medicine today, as scientists are discovering more ways to heal people, especially in the field of burn treatment. Effective burn wound healing is a complicated process that has just been simplified and made more effective, using the new SkinGun that treats burn victims, by shooting ...
The engineering technologies the military develops for its soldiers to carry heavy objects, giving them super human strengths, is also being developed in the private sector and at universities around the world, these are called exoskeletons. Very similar to the power suits seen in movies like 'Edge of Tomorrow' ...
“Open your mouth and say… ahhh” said every doctor to their patients. It's 'awkward' to say the least – using a thermometer placed in the mouth to track a person's body temperature, or worse, for young children. Well, those days are gone – using traditional thermometers placed in the orifices of people to track body ...
With gun-related deaths tragically on the rise and cries for added gun-control restrictions falling largely on deaf ears, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved a military-developed sponge-dispensing syringe for use by civilian first responders to control bleeding from severe gunshot wounds. The ...
A new bandage in development at MIT has the potential independently release medicine into wounds when changes in temperature and bacteria levels suggest an infection. This medicating patch is a new stage in the MIT Department of Mechanical Engineering's pursuit of solutions that create efficient long-term interface ...
