Bio-Spatial-SIP: Spatially targeted stable isotope probing for bioscience
The Laser Ablation Capillary Absorption Spectrometry (LA-CAS) system enables low-cost stable carbon isotope analysis with near single cell spatial resolution. This is new capabilit...
High sensitivity pulse electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy for biomedical and biomolecular sciences
Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy detects the magnetism arising from the "spin", a quantum mechanical property, of unpaired electrons. In most molecules...
Is "fertility equality" a human right? Analysing the access to commercial surrogacy for cisgender gay male couples in Europe (and beyond)
Scientific advances in the field of assisted reproduction have led to the emergence of a new demand: the right of cisgender male gay couples to have biological children. To realise...
Collaborative Research: A novel approach to study monomethylmercury in natural phytoplankton assemblages
Mercury (Hg) remains an important pollutant in the ocean despite international commitments to lower emissions. While all forms of mercury are toxic, monomethyl mercury (MMHg) is es...
Leveraging Controlled Release to Create a Single-Injection Post-Exposure Prophylactic for Rabies
PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT Rabies is the deadliest infectious disease with a case fatality rate of virtually 100%. Fortunately, rabies can be prevented through vaccination or be tr...
