Professor Jonathan Rocheleau, a researcher at the University Health Network (UHN) and the Institute of Biomedical Engineering (BME), has received a $100,000 grant from the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) to explore a crucial aspect of insulin release—a process essential for maintaining healthy blood sugar levels.
Researchers at U of T have determined that immunosuppressants used with transplant recipients slow wound repair by inhibiting the growth of cells adjacent to wounds. They have found ways to restore rapid wound repair in an in vivo animal model.
Researchers from the Institute of Biomedical Engineering and Chemical Engineering at the University of Toronto have developed a novel method to dramatically extend the duration of glaucoma treatment.
The University of Toronto and its partners are receiving $4.25 million over the next five years to establish a national hub aimed at accelerating the commercialization of life sciences discoveries.
Researchers at the University of Toronto’s Institute of Biomedical Engineering (BME) have found that studying blood flow in leg muscles may help detect cardiovascular disease earlier compared to standardized tests, opening the door to earlier treatment and better outcomes.
Researchers from the Institute of Biomedical Engineering (BME) at the University of Toronto have developed a new method to precisely control the structure and function of immune complexes (ICs) using DNA origami.
Researchers at the Institute of Biomedical Engineering (BME) at the University of Toronto have developed a flexible, biodegradable electrode capable of stimulating neural precursor cells (NPCs) in the brain. This device delivers targeted electrical stimulation for up to seven days before dissolving naturally, eliminating the need for surgical removal.
Three faculty members at the University of Toronto’s Institute of Biomedical Engineering (BME) have been awarded Canada Research Chairs (CRCs) by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) and the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC).
