New platform can help treat neurodegenerative diseases through regenerative medicine

New platform can help treat neurodegenerative diseases through regenerative medicine Imagine if surgeons could transplant healthy neurons into patients living with neurodegenerative diseases or brain and spinal cord injuries. And imagine if they could grow these neurons in the laboratory from a patient s own cells using a synthetic, highly bioactive material that is suitable for 3D printing. By discovering a new printable biomaterial that can mimic properties of brain tissue, Northwestern University researchers are now closer to developing a platform capable of treating these conditions using regenerative medicine. A key ingredient to the discovery is the ability to control the self-assembly processes of molecules within the material, enabling the researchers to modify the structure and functions of the systems from the nanoscale to the scale of visible features.

Which face mask is best for communication? A new study weighs in

Which face mask is best for communication? A new study weighs in The receptionist at the doctor’s office asks a question from behind her double mask and face guard on the opposite side of a large, plastic partition. “Excuse me, what was that again?” It’s a phrase I repeat a lot these days. Distorted by masks and myriad sound barriers, sounds in the world around me have become muffled, emerging as garbled as Marlon Brando’s infamous whispers in “The Godfather.” My hearing isn’t that bad. So if I’m struggling to understand others during the pandemic, how must it be for elderly grandparents and others with hearing loss, especially with so many people double masking?
