-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)Recent studies have developed preliminary wiring diagrams for a number of important biological networks. However, the design principles governing the construction and operation of these networks remain mostly unknown. To ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Our understanding of why biological systems are designed in a particular way would benefit from biophysically-realistic models that can make accurate predictions on the time-evolution of molecular events given arbitrary ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Normalizing angiogenesis is a promising strategy for treatments of cancer and several disorders plagued by misregulated blood supplies. To address the daunting complexity of angiogenesis arising from multiple phenotypic ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)The adaptive immune system is an extraordinarily diverse inventory comprised of highly specialized cells, the differentiation of which requires numerous lineage specifications at various developmental stages. The precise ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)Nanoparticle-protein conjugates have a variety of applications in imaging, sensing, assembly and control. The nanoparticle-protein interface is made of numerous complex interactions between protein side-chains and the ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Molecular springs have recently emerged as the basis for the fastest and most powerful movements at the cellular level in biology. The spasmoneme of the protozoan, Vorticella convallaria, is a model molecular spring, relying ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Proteins and polysaccharides are of growing importance as a source for novel therapeutic compounds and target a range of diseases, from cancer to infections from pathogens. However, owing to their large and complex structures, ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1996)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Agents that damage our DNA are omnipresent in our environment and inside our cells themselves. Left unrepaired, DNA damage can lead to premature aging, neurodegeneration and cancer. Humans have thus evolved intricate and ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)Parkinson's disease (PD) is a primarily motor disorder which affects at least half a million people in the US alone. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a neurosurgical intervention by which neural structures are stimulated ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)One erythropoietin molecule binds asymmetrically to two identical receptor monomers via erythropoietin site 1 and site 2, although it is unclear how asymmetry affects receptor activation and signaling. Here we report the ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1995)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)Gene Fabrication technology involves the development and optimization of methods relevant to the in vitro synthesis of any given target gene sequence(s) in the absence of template. The driving purpose of this field of ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)Live or attenuated pathogens are the basis of many successful vaccines due in part to the orchestrated response of dendritic cells (DCs) triggered by these immunizations, which includes (1) DC and DC precursor attraction ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Cholesterol gallstones are exceptionally common and cost nearly 10 billion U.S. dollars annually. Despite a half-century of basic and clinical research questions still remain about cholesterol gallstone pathogenesis. The ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)Glycans are chemically heterogeneous macromolecules that have profound importance in a variety of biological processes. Located at the surfaces of cells, deposited in the extracellular matrix, or attached to soluble signaling ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)With constantly increasing demand for lightweight power sources, electrode architectures that eliminate the need for conductive and organic additives will increase mass specific energy and power densities. The increased ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Alternative splicing is involved in numerous cellular functions and is often disrupted and involved in disease. Previous research has identified methods to distinguish alternative conserved exons (ACEs) in human and mouse. ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)Biological engineers have constructed a number of multi-part synthetic biological systems that conduct logical operations on input signals, produce oscillatory output signals, store memory, or produce desired products. ...
