In 1551, phantom pain was first described by Ambroise Paré. Paré was a surgeon in the French army, and he was reported to have amputated as many as 200 limbs in a day [1]. In his experience with soldiers following amputations, he wrote, For patients, long after the amputation is made, say they still feel […]

Biosensors are analytical devices that measure biological and chemical reactions by generating signals proportioned to the concentration of the analyte in the reaction. They consist of a bioreceptor that can detect a specific biological (or chemical) element and a transducer that converts the energy form through a process known as ‘signalisation’. Biosensors are commonly used

Identifying the molecular basis of the characteristics that makes us human is by far one of the greatest challenges of biology and as humans, we have been searching for answers for our exceptionally developed brains for centuries. In between the millions of mutations and chromosomal rearrangements that have occured during our evolution lie the genetic

Throughout the past decades, most of the research has been focused on 2D cultured cell lines. These rather classical cell lines are cheap, easy to handle, and amenable to numerous experimental techniques and methods [1,2]. However, their initial establishment is inefficient and involves extended genetic and phenotypic adaptation to culture conditions. As a result, cell

In order for life to emerge on Earth, a wide and diverse range of organic compounds was necessary. The contribution from earthly processes is unclear although it is thought that outgassing and hydrothermal fluid-rock interactions have played major roles within the process. Here, we can take a deeper look into hydrothermal vents, and their preassumed
