The technique enabled researchers to map the development of human retinal organoids at high temporal and spatial resolution, providing insights into how healthy tissue forms and developing a time series that describes the entire 39-week development of retinal organoids.

Researchers from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich (ETH Zurich) have developed a new technology that can generate electricity from blood sugar.
Scientists have figured out a way to convert blood sugar into electrical energy. The applications could help power insulin pumps and additional medical devices.
Basel (Switzerland), April 5: In type 1 diabetes, the body does not produce insulin. This means that patients have to obtain the hormone externally to regulate their blood sugar levels. Nowadays, this is mostly done via insulin pumps that are attached directly to the body. These devices, as well as other medical applications such as pacemakers, require a reliable energy supply, which at present is met primarily by power from either single-use or rechargeable batteries.
