Treating Addiction With Psychedelics

Psychedelics are being explored for a myriad of neurological and psychiatric conditions. In this video, Technology Networks speak with Professor David Nutt and Anthony Tennyson from Awakn Life Sciences, a Toronto-based company who focus on the use of psychedelics to treat addiction.

Developing Food Testing Techniques To Combat Emerging Contaminants

Developing Food Testing Techniques To Combat Emerging Contaminants

Food contamination is not a new issue; this is why food producers take care to perform risk assessments and to keep their operations as hygienic as possible. But in recent years, the rise of a new class of contaminants has become a major concern to the industry.

Could COVID-19 Usher in a Digital Future for Healthcare?

Could COVID-19 Usher in a Digital Future for Healthcare?

Over the last 18 months, the UK National Health Service (NHS) has been hit hard by the COVID-19 pandemic, with nearly 130,000 deaths from COVID-19 recorded. Could a more digitized, data-centric NHS have saved lives? A new study examining how patients were treated over the first wave of the pandemic has shown how machine learning-based methods could transform how standard NHS care is conducted.

Inhaled Nanobodies: A Potential Treatment for COVID-19

Dr. Yi Shi, assistant professor in the department of cell biology at the University of Pittsburgh and colleagues are exploring the potential of nanobodies as a treatment for COVID-19. The team recently published findings from preclinical studies on the use of a nanobody called Pittsburgh inhalable Nanobody-21 (PiN-21) that targets the receptor-binding domain (RBD) of the SARS-CoV-2 spike (S) protein.

Speaking Algae: Tapping the Ancient Power of Microalgae Using Synthetic Biology

How do humans tap into microalgae’s “life experience” to acquire valuable knowledge? To do so, we must learn to speak their “language” and translate that information into useful applications for society and its industries. Amazingly, recent strides in microalgae biotechnology, synthetic biology, and biomanufacturing are making that possible.

Closer Relationships Between Sponsors and Regulators Could Transform Clinical Trials

Both pharmaceutical companies and regulators have collaborated closely over the course of the COVID-19 pandemic to develop vaccines, diagnostic tests and other therapies quicker than ever before and have shown us that clinical development can be accelerated. However, there are still several long-standing barriers to progress, when the focus isn’t on a global pandemic, that must now be remedied.

New Developments in Multiplexing Aim To Reduce Immunoassay Variability

Immunoassays are used for a wide variety of proteomic and genomic applications in drug discovery and development. In this article, we discuss the advantages of multiplexing over single-plex methods and highlight key considerations when developing a multiplex assay.
