Video/AnimationRoot: Meets Students At Any LevelThis video demonstrates how Root can be used in classrooms to help instill coding and programming skills in students at any level. Developed by a team of researchers led by Wyss Core Faculty member Radhika Nagpal, the Root system is designed to be as intuitive and approachable as any tablet app, providing a framework easy... -
Audio/PodcastDisruptive: Putting Biofilms to WorkBiofilms are commonly known as the slime-producing bacterial communities sitting on stones in streams, dirty pipes and drains, or dental plaque. However, Wyss Core Faculty member Neel Joshi is putting to work the very properties that make biofilms effective nuisances or threats in our daily lives. In this episode of Disruptive, Joshi and postdoctoral fellow... -
Video/AnimationMechanotherapeutics: From Drugs to WearablesThe Wyss Institute’s 7th annual international symposium focused on advances in the field of Mechanobiology that have resulted in the development of new types of pharmaceuticals, drug delivery systems, engineered tissues, and wearable therapeutic devices that leverage physical forces or target mechanical signaling pathways as a core part of their mechanism of action. Organized by... -
Video/AnimationOctobot: A Soft, Autonomous RobotThe Octobot is the first entirely soft, autonomous robot. It is made by a combination of embedded 3D printing, modeling, and soft lithography. Inspired by real octopuses, the Octobot has no rigid components. It is powered by a chemical reaction and controlled with a microfluidic logic that directs the flow of fuel. The logic circuit... -
Audio/PodcastSynthetic Stingray May Lead To A Better Artificial HeartSynthetic Stingray May Lead To A Better Artificial Heart was originally broadcast on NPR’s All Things Considered on July 7, 2016. This story features Wyss Core Faculty member Kit Parker. The original broadcast story can be found here. -
Audio/PodcastThe Modest Mouse: Why We Use Mice in MedicineThe Modest Mouse: Why We Use Mice in Medicine was originally broadcast on NPR’s Innovation Hub on July 2016. This story features Wyss Core Faculty member Don Ingber. The original broadcast story can be found here. -
Video/AnimationSuper Resolution Discrete Molecular Imaging AnimationSee in this animation, how Discrete Molecular Imaging (DMI) uses DNA nanotechnology to reveal densely packed molecular features in structures similar in size as single protein molecules.
