Wyss Institute: Nanostructured Materials and Systems for Biomedical Applications
Abstract: Nanostructured materials have been developed for various biomedical applications. They have been designed as stimuli-responsive drug delivery systems and sustained protein delivery systems. Nanocomposite systems have also been designed to provide simultaneous drug delivery and bioimaging functions as theranostic systems. They can be synthesized with unique carrier materials that offer synergistic therapeutic effects with the drugs to be delivered. In addition, nanostructure processing has been employed in creating synthetic cell culture substrates for the expansion and controlled differentiation of stem cells. Na...

Wyss Institute: Planes, Trains, Automobiles...and Cells?
Two areas that have always interested Phil LeDuc are the mechanics of machines and the wonders of nature. His interest in mechanics, first beginning as a youth taking apart machines like lawn mowers, has intersected with his fascination with nature at the cellular and molecular levels. Here he will present how his lab has been merging mechanical engineering with biology. His lab approaches this intersection by envisioning cells and molecules as “systems” that can be investigated with some of the same fundamental approaches used on machines such as planes, trains, and automobiles looking for unifying principles. The bio...

Cosy Science presents: Repairing the brain with stem cells with Prof Jack Price
The first clinical trial of stem cells for a neurodegenerative disease in the UK is now underway. Does this mean that a new era of regenerative medicine for brain disorders is upon us? Could it also herald the advent of ‘human enhancement’ using stem cell technologies? Or is it possible that neuroscientists don’t really know what they are doing, and just got lucky?
Jack Price is Professor of Developmental Neurobiology at the Institute of Psychiatry, King’s College London, and is Head of the Institute’s Centre for the Cellular Basis of Behaviour. He is also a consultant for ReNeuron Ltd., a...
