Do COVID-19 vaccines care whether you're female or male? MSU researcher is studying, raising awareness about the role of sex in the efficacy of vaccines that make use of nanomedicine If there’s one take-home message for the general public about the coronavirus vaccines approved in the U.S., it’s that they are remarkably effective. MSU Assistant Professor Morteza Mahmoudi But Michigan State University’s Morteza Mahmoudi is raising awareness about an important subtlety: The vaccines developed by Moderna and Pfizer-BioNTech appear to work slightly better for males than for females. ...
New techniques are showing how tiny diagnostics, therapeutics interact with human biomolecules like never before MSU Assistant Professor Morteza Mahmoudi An international team of researchers led by Michigan State University’s Morteza Mahmoudi has developed a new method to better understand how nanomedicines — emerging diagnostics and therapies that are very small yet very intricate — interact with patients’ biomolecules. Medicines based on nanoscopic particles have the promise to be more effective than current therapies while reducing side effects. But subtle complexities have conf...
