Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have created nanostructured alumina surfaces which are strongly antibacterial but can be used to culture cells.

Cardiovascular disease continues to lead as the primary cause of death across the globe, taking millions of lives every year. Damage caused by these diseases is particularly difficult to repair, since the heart has minimal ability to regenerate itself. But what if we could reprogram the body’s own cells to restore damaged tissue? This question has been tackled by scientists at Korea University, led by Dr. Myeong-Hwa Song.

Researchers from IBEC led by Oscar Castaño, senior researcher at the Biomaterials for Regenerative Therapies group, developed a novel approach, recently published in Biomaterials Advances.

The new balloon can be expanded before a meal to prevent overeating, then deflated when no longer needed.
