Inspired by the famed Drake equation, the Contagion Airborne Transmission (CAT) inequality seeks to make sense of the many variables, including environmental ones, that can affect transmissibility of COVID-19.
In a paper published in Science, Johns Hopkins University researchers detail a new method for testing metals at a microscopic scale that allows them to rapidly inflict repetitive loads on materials while recording how ensuing damage evolves into cracks.
In the March issue of Biomaterials, Johns Hopkins researchers share promising findings on the underlying mechanisms by which breast cancer cells turn healthy cells into CAFs during early stages of breast cancer.
Sung Hoon Kang and team developed the prototype in response to the urgent need for more ventilators to treat patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome caused by COVID-19
Using microfluidic technologies, Soojung Claire Hur and co-investigator Thomas Pisanic are aiming to develop a microfluidic primary cell editing platform (pCEP) for personal gene therapy with a new award from the National Institutes of Health.
In our latest video, undergraduate mechanical engineers discuss their experiences at Johns Hopkins University:
The New York Times reports on Johns Hopkins engineers’ efforts to model scenarios for breaking up or interrupting the path of an asteroid on a collision course with Earth.
The findings can aid in the creation of asteroid impact and deflection strategies, increase understanding of solar system formation and help design asteroid mining efforts.
A new Johns Hopkins study offers promise towards someday being able to non-invasively examine changes in cancerous tumors to determine whether they’ll respond to radiation treatment, before treatment even begins.
The brain continually updates its orientation in the world from physical cues and landmarks.
