Singapore researchers find new phage DNA modification that may combat superbugs
Scientists from the Singapore-MIT Alliance for Research and Technology (SMART) Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) group, together with the University of Otago and collaborators from Nanyang Technological University, Delft University of Technology, University of Canterbury and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, have […]
SMART researchers develop fast advanced method to detect microbial contamination in cell cultures
Researchers from the Critical Analytics for Manufacturing Personalized-Medicine (CAMP), an Interdisciplinary Research Group (IRG) of the Singapore-MIT Alliance for Research and Technology (SMART), in collaboration with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), ASTAR Skin Research Labs (ASRL), and the National […]
SMART Researchers Develop Rapid Contamination-Detection Method for Safer T-Cell Therapy
Traditional sterility tests for bacteria and fungi in T-cell cultures take up to 14 days, whereas a new method developed by researchers at SMART in Singapore can detect contaminants within 24 hours. Using advanced nanopore sequencing and machine learning, this […]
SMART’s new Microfluidic Technology revolutionizes stem cell extraction
Researchers at Singapore-MIT Alliance for Research and Technology (SMART) have unveiled a groundbreaking microfluidic technique that promises a paradigm shift in stem cell extraction from bone marrow aspirate (BMA). The traditional methods, plagued by complexity and inefficiency, have been revolutionized […]
Experimental smart hearing aid tracks user’s brain waves
Scientists at Belgium’s KU Leuven University have designed a cochlear implant that successfully reads a user’s brain waves to allow deaf people to hear again. Measuring these brain waves – instead of detecting noises via external microphones – is more […]
Novel assay by SMART more accurately profiles hyper-aggressive infection
A new label-free immune profiling assay has been developed by researchers from the Critical Analytics for Manufacturing Personalized Medicine (CAMP), an interdisciplinary research group within the Singapore-MIT Alliance for Research and Technology (SMART), to better profile aggressive, rapidly changing host […]
Smart, self-healing hydrogels open far-reaching possibilities in medicine, engineering
UNIVERSITY of California, San Diego bioengineers have developed a self-healing hydrogel that binds in seconds, as easily as Velcro, and forms a bond strong enough to withstand repeated stretching. The material has numerous potential applications, including medical sutures, targeted drug […]
