Once a day, Divya Ramesh and her colleagues drop fish food into the aquariums in their lab, feeding a menagerie of three unusual species: the ropefish, bichir, and mudskipper. All…

Hopkins engineers are working on a system to diagnose whether a person has malaria using near-infrared light.

A new system developed by Johns Hopkins researchers could monitor drug resistance in elusive cancer cells and open the door for more effective treatment options.

The finding could help detect and treat kidney diseases and aid in disease modeling.

Researchers say the sensor combines accuracy levels approaching that of PCR testing with the speed of rapid antigen tests, and could be used for mass testing at airports, schools, and hospitals.

Sung Hoon Kang focuses his research on how nature—plants, animals, the human body—can provide inspiration for engineering breakthroughs. Through a four-year, roughly $600,000 Air Force grant, he is studying how the lightweight, adaptable, irregular structure of bird bones could provide a blueprint for more efficient and resilient aerospace and automotive materials.
