"Study unlocks potential breakthrough in Type 1 diabetes treatment
For the over 8 million people around the globe living with Type 1 diabetes, getting a host immune system to tolerate the presence of implanted insulin-secreting cells could be life-changing.
Rice University bioengineer Omid Veiseh and collaborators identified new biomaterial formulations that could help turn the page on Type 1 diabetes treatment, opening the door to a more sustainable, long-term, self-regulating way to handle the disease."
As requested by Reid Alderson, ChemEx is now in #NMROnline!
We would like to thank D. Flemming Hansen (@dflemminghansen) for providing the data, and Guillaume Bouvignies for his support with the ChemEx integration.
Dropping #evolution from the science curriculum is like dropping arithmetic from mathematics curriculum. Very few things made sense to me in #biology until I learnt about evolution.
On top of that, this sort of nonsense was always something that happened in other countries. I'm very sad to see it reach #India.
People who know about plant life cycles: what is this?
At first I thought it might be some kind of spider web, or insect eggs, or cocoon, but zooming in it looks like plain old bubbles. Do grasses blow bubbles as some part of their growth?
About one stalk in fifty seems to have this. But it's only on the prarie grass, not the St Augustine grass of the lawn.
Scientists have achieved a significant breakthrough in the effort to slow the aging process with a novel technique that increased the lifespans of yeast cells by a whopping 82 percent, reports a new study
I did a double take when I read the title of the paper: "Ultrafast reversible self-assembly of living tangled matter"
Then I did another (a triple take?) when I saw the video. https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.03384 #Biology#LifeFindsAWay

“When someone says, ‘hey, look at this weird #bug!’ they’re usually referring to an insect… you know, a six-legged exoskeleton-clad creature that has at least one pair of wings at some point in its life. To an #entomologist, someone who studies #insects," #bugs mean something a little different... Learn more with this #MinuteEarth#video.
