Wiskundig model helpt ontstaan van wervels en ribben te verklaren
Leidse wiskundig biologen hebben een model ontwikkeld dat helpt verklaren hoe onder meer de ruggengraat en de wervels ontstaan in de embryonale ontwikkeling. Hetzelfde proces, maar dan andersom, speelt een sleutelrol bij de uitzaaiing van kanker. Publicatie in iScience.

Gevaarlijke microben in lager veiligheidslevel lab? Met een nieuwe techniek zou het kunnen
Onderzoekers moeten in een gespecialiseerde omgeving werken zodra ze aan de slag gaan met gevaarlijke bacteriën en virussen. Alleen in laboratoria met een hoog bio-veiligheidsniveau mogen ze deze microben bestuderen. Helaas zijn dure microscopen nodig om de microben goed te bekijken, maar is dat soms…
