Grid-To-Belt Automatic Sorter
Sorting involves organizing items according to their common characteristics or destinations. The primary performance metric for a sorting system is the number of items it can process in a given time unit, namely, the system’s throughput. Circular conveyor belts (or similar technologies) segmented into sections are the prevailing technology used for sorting. In such systems, […] Read More >
Restoring Immunity Against GI Cancers
BACKGROUND GI cancers cause over 3.5 million deaths per year globally, accounting for 35% of all cancer-related deaths. Colorectal carcinoma (CRC) is the world’s second leading cause of cancer death. Current immunotherapy treatments for CRC are hamstrung by low response rate, acquired resistance, relapse and severe side effects. ImmuNovation presents a disruptive nanomodular technology utilizing […] Read More >
Discovery of a Virus That Threatens The Rainbow Trout Aquaculture
Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykissis) is a North Pacific salmonid species, which, in the Western hemisphere, is the principal inland-farmed fish. In terms of production, global rainbow trout reached 600,000 tons in 2012; by 2019, it had exceeded 950,000 tons. Recently, we discovered a novel and ongoing disease in farmed rainbow trout, the hallmark of which […] Read More >
Novel Immuno-Metabolism Pathways to Combat Obesity and Insulin Resistance
Nutritional unbalance develops the obesity led to diabetes and accompanied by insulin resistance is being the epidemics of the 21st century. Inflammation of adipose tissue serves one notable pathway that is driving the development of dysfunctional metabolic state, leading to hyperglycaemia and other pathophysiology complications. Within the adipose tissue, a pivotal role in modulating interactions […] Read More >
Development of Improved Peptide Inhibitors of the HIF/PHD Interaction – Anemia and HIF – Related Diseases
Modern drugs are molecules that interfere with the activity of a specific protein related to a target disease. Within this realm, new molecules capable of interfering with protein-protein interactions (PPIs) are in the heart of modern drug discovery. However, the discovery or de-novo design of new molecules is often hampered by the lack of structural […] Read More >
A Computational Based Approach For Designing Plasmids’ Copy Number
We used plasmids in any biotechnological objective (both in the academia and in the industry) and in all model organisms. For example, plasmids are used in fields such as FoodTech, pharma, agriculture, etc. Currently, researchers chose between two possibilities: high copy plasmid (e.g. 500 copies) and low copy plasmid (e.g. 10 copies). However, the ability […] Read More >
A Dedicated Hardware for Accelerating Whole Cell Simulations of mRNA Translation for Various Biotechnological Pharma Applications
Gene expression (is a fundamental process defining all type of life where information encoded in the genetic material is used for generating proteins. Gene expression is a multi-steps process mediated by millions of intracellular biological machines (e.g. RNA polymerases, transcription factors, ribosomes, tRNAs, miRNAs), with complex interactions among them. Recently, intracellular biophysical simulations of gene […] Read More >
A Generic Approach Constructing an Evolutionary Stable Genetic Circuit
Any genetic circuit engineered in any organism will cause a huge metabolic load on its host, compiling the organism to manufacture numerous proteins against his own benefit thus greatly decreasing its fitness. Random mutations that arise during normal DNA replication or during DNA damage repair dictate that it’s unavoidable outcome that the genetic circuit will […] Read More >
Deep Cell-Type Deconvolution From Bulk Gene Expression Data
It is becoming clear that bulk gene expression measurements represent an average over very different cells. Elucidating the expression and abundance of each of the encompassed cells is key to disease understanding and precision medicine approaches. A first step in any such deconvolution is the inference of cell type abundances in the given mixture. To […] Read More >
Epitope Based Vaccines for Flaviviruses
Flaviviridae are a family of positive, single-stranded enveloped RNA viruses that are typically transmitted to humans via mosquitoes and ticks. Yellow Fever virus, West Nile virus and Dengue virus are examples of human Flavivirus pathogens. Dengue virus has 4 serotypes, and getting infected by one serotype, does not protect against the other three. Moreover, pre-infection […] Read More >
