The microRNAs target brain cancer stem cells to halt their capacity to propagate and sustain tumor growth.

The largest study of its kind, this research is another step closer to ‘realizing the goal of personal genomics,’ scientists say.

Johns Hopkins engineers and an international team of neuroscientists created a complete map of the learning and memory center of the fruit fly larva brain, an early step toward mapping how all animal brains work.

Every summer, Johns Hopkins Biomedical Engineering students work side-by-side with primary care providers in some of the world’s most underserved communities.

Johns Hopkins students will be able to assist in helping patients recover from stroke and brain injury by playing video games on a newly installed gaming table, called the Kata Therapeutic Table, in the Brody Learning Commons.

Last fall, teams of students in the Center for Leadership Education’s Master of Science in Engineering Management program partnered with clinicians to identify potential patient safety issues and to offer engineering solutions.

The three-week trip is part of the CBID program’s innovative partnership with Jhpiego, a global health nonprofit affiliated with Johns Hopkins.

The proposed tool would improve diagnosis capability using a low-cost technology, which would enhance resource and case management of ALRIs, especially in disadvantaged communities lacking diagnostic tools.

Fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFRs or FGF receptors) are expressed in the plasma membrane of many key cell types in mammals, and their activity plays a crucial role in the development of bone and tissue.
