Bioresorbable intestinal devices with embedded resorbable sensors for gastrointestinal monitoring

Swallowable sensors are limited by how long they stay in place. A capsule passes through the gut within a day or two, so it can only take a snapshot when conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease need to be tracked over weeks without the risk of obstruction. Read more

[FSE PhD President's Doctoral Scholarship] Engineering chemical probes to sense dynamic molecular neighbourhoods in living cells

How can we measure the fleeting molecular neighbourhoods that control signalling inside living cells?. Proximity-labelling methods provide a powerful way to address this problem by converting spatial proximity into a permanent chemical tag that can subsequently be detected by imaging or proteomics.
