Flu Virus Shells Could Improve Delivery of mRNA Into Cells

November 30, 2021

UC San Diego nanoengineers developed a new and potentially more effective way to deliver messenger RNA (mRNA) into cells. Their approach involves packing mRNA inside nanoparticles that mimic the flu virus—a naturally efficient vehicle for delivering genetic material such as RNA inside cells.

The Router in Your Home Might Be Intercepting Some of Your Internet Traffic—for a Good Reason

December 15, 2021

The router in your home might be intercepting some of your Internet traffic and sending it to a different destination. Specifically, the router can intercept the Domain Name System traffic—the communications used to translate human-readable domain names.

Doubling Compute Capacity for Data-Intensive Physics with Microsoft Azure

December 16, 2021

SDSC and OSG used Microsoft Azure Cloud Services to enable scientists to accomplish in a few days what would normally take them weeks, thus accelerating science and opening up new scientific pursuits.

‘Pop-up’ Electronic Sensors Could Detect When Individual Heart Cells Misbehave

December 23, 2021

UC San Diego engineers developed a powerful new tool that directly measures the movement and speed of electrical signals inside heart cells, using tiny “pop-up” sensors that poke into cells without damaging them. It could be used to gain more detailed insights into heart disorders and diseases.
