How Alzheimer’s Risk Gene APOE4 Disrupts Myelination
One of the main ways that the APOE4 gene variant—the biggest genetic risk factor for late onset Alzheimer’s disease—undermines brain circuit function is by disrupting myelination, the process of insulating neurons with a fatty...
Colorimetry Could Bring Objective Numbers to Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation Care
Researchers argue that colorimetry, a noninvasive light-reflectance technique, could form the basis of the first standardized clinical scale for measuring post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Source
The Top 10 Questions Shaping the Future of Optogenetic Biomanufacturing
Maximilian Hoerner, PhD
The emergence of increasingly complex biologics such as multi‑specific antibodies, cytokines, fusion proteins, and other structurally demanding modalities has exposed the limits of conventional bioprocessing. Many of these molecules are difficult to...
