Havana Syndrome is a mystery, but not of physics Penn In the News Bloomberg Havana Syndrome is a mystery, but not of physics Ken Foster of the School of Engineering and Applied Science says that microwaves can stimulate the cochlea and cause people to hear a clicking sound known as the Frey effect. Targeted prenatal therapy addresses long-standing gap in health equity Image: iStock/Motortion Targeted prenatal therapy addresses long-standing gap in health equity Penn engineers have developed a successful delivery system of mRNA to placental cells to treat preeclampsia at its root. Preeclampsia treated via protein replacement therapy in mice Penn In the News GEN Edge Preeclampsia treated via protein replacement therapy in mice A team led by Ph.D. student Kelsey Swingle in Michael Mitchell’s lab at the School of Engineering and Applied Science has developed an ionizable lipid nanoparticle formation that can deliver mRNA to placental cells to treat a serious pregnancy-related condition.

New insights into the mechanisms of tumor growth Nocred New insights into the mechanisms of tumor growth A team of researchers led by the School of Arts & Science’s Wei Guo characterize the molecular pathways that play a major role in tumorigenesis, findings that could lead to better diagnostic tools for cancer and new targeted therapies. RNA lipid nanoparticle engineering stops liver fibrosis in its tracks RNA lipid nanoparticle engineering stops liver fibrosis in its tracks A successful lipid nanoparticles drug delivery system targets notoriously hard-to-target activated fibroblasts in the liver. OCTOPUS, an optimized device for growing mini-organs in a dish OCTOPUS, an optimized device for growing mini-organs in a dish With OCTOPUS, Dan Huh’s team expands organoid research with a platform superior to conventional gel droplets, allowing researchers to replicate biological systems outside of the body. New cell characterization method hints at reasons for resistance to cancer therapies New cell characterization method hints at reasons for resistance to cancer therapies Penn experts have developed new analysis tool that combines a cell’s unique gene expression data with information about the cell’s origins. The method can be applied to identify new cell subsets throughout development and better understand drug resistance.
