New Innovation in Molecular Engineering: Creating Complex Organoids
A groundbreaking paper in organoid research, published in Nature Nanotechnology by Cluster Doctoral Researchers Cassian Afting, Tobias Walther, and Christina Schlagheck, along with Principal Investigators Ulrich Schwarz, Joachim Wittbrodt, and Kerstin Göpfrich, involves nanoengineered DNA microbeads that enable precise control of signaling in organoids. These microbeads enhance organoid development by providing essential biochemical cues. This […]
Introducing CART
A recent Cluster publication introduced CART (Carrier-Based Actuatable and Reprogrammable Transport), an innovative system for remote manipulation of microcargos on both solid and liquid surfaces. Developed by Postdoctoral Researcher Nikolaj K. Mandsberg, Doctoral Researcher Julián A. Serna, and Principal Investigator Pavel Levkin, this technology revolutionizes miniaturized experiments in fields such as biology, chemistry, and diagnostics. […]
The future of immunology
A recent article in the Perspectives section of Nature Nanotechnology, co-authored by Cluster Principal Investigator Kerstin Göpfrich, describes the latest advances in synthetic immunology. This groundbreaking research examines how the integration of nanotechnology with synthetic biology is reshaping the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. The article highlights significant advances in the development of genetically […]
Water Purification with Bio-Inspired Innovation
A recent paper published in Nature Communications, co-authored by PI Motomu Tanaka, presents an innovative water purification method inspired by plant proteins. The phytochelatin-inspired copolymers developed by the team effectively bind toxic heavy metals such as cadmium (Cd²⁺), providing a highly efficient and sustainable solution for water treatment. By attaching these copolymers to silica microparticles […]
