A new study from Aarhus University shows that our cells' ability to clean out old protein clumps, known as aggregates, also includes a—up till now unknown—partnership with an engine that breaks down ...

Many neurodegenerative diseases, such as dementia, are characterized by the abnormal aggregation of proteins inside cells, and treatments are being developed to break them up. But new research ...

Whether for drug screening or toxicity testing, stem cell-based 3D tissue models are key to biomedical research. However, producing cell aggregates in bioreactors is highly complex and cost-intensive.
