Advances in 3D printing functional polymeric devices

Three-dimensional printing, or additive manufacturing, has emerged as a transformative technology capable of producing complex, customizable structures directly from computer-aided design models. Its ...
The functions of biomolecules, including lipids, nucleic acids and especially proteins are determined to a great extent by their structure. This structure–function relationship is a foundation of many ...
An international research team led jointly by the University Medical Center Göttingen (UMG), the University of Göttingen and ...
The AI-based program AlphaFold predicts a protein's 3D structure with remarkable accuracy. However, it tends to reduce heterogeneous structures to a single dominant conformation, or shape, and ...
The cerebellum, historically linked only to motor control, is now recognized as a vital hub for executive function, emotion, and social cognition. Through ...
The thyroid cartilage surrounds the thyroid gland in the middle of the throat. Its primary function is to protect and support the vocal cords. It is one of the laryngeal cartilages, which make up the ...
An essential component of the lymphatic system, the thymus, a pyramid-shaped organ located in the thoracic cavity, is responsible for producing T-cells. For centuries, the thymus was believed to be an ...
