  Older age is marked by muscle mass loss, which has been shown to increase the risk for falls, injuries and disability. The main goal of this project is to strengthen the current collaboration and to simplify current procedures for measurement of muscle mass, which are used in the diagnosis of sarcopenia. The researchers at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) and UNICAMP are …

  Only a few nanoparticles (NPs) have passed FDA clinical trials for human use despite meaningful decades of in advances in NP drug-delivery systems and numerous published works. The proposal described here aims to understand the impact of protein presence on the ultimate location of nanoparticles inside mammalian cells. Silica particles containing fluorescent molecules such as Cy5, Alexa 6…
