The fields of virology, microbiology, nanoparticles, and extracellular vesicles (EVs) have grown tremendously over the past few years. Viruses, which range in size from 17 nm to ~1.5 µm, small ...

A levitating magnetic microrobot autonomously sorts sub-millimeter particles by weight in 3D environments, enabling precise, contamination-free handling in biomedical and manufacturing applications.

Air pollution causes health problems and is attributable to some 50,000 annual deaths in the United States, but not all air pollutants pack the same punch. Scientists have tracked the scope of "PM 2.5 ...

Physicists have long struggled to unite quantum mechanics—the theory governing tiny particles—with Einstein’s theory of gravity, which explains the behavior of stars, planets, and the structure of the ...

In recent years extracellular vesicles (EVs) have become one of the most studied entities due to their ability to regulate gene expression and alter the function of various cell types. There has been ...
