• SCAMT Achievement Award Winners on Genetic Engineering and Doing Research as a Master’s Student

  …pH in healthy cells is neutral, but acidic in cancer cells. We use TiO2 nanotubes to grow MOF capable of encapsulating drugs. They remain stable when the pH is neutral, but dissolve once the environment becomes acidic. This way, our product will deliver drugs to cancer cells while reducing the harm done to healthy ones. The SCAMT Achievement Award is given for con…

  …pacity to think. Standing out in the industrial robots group were Nextage, a humanoid robot developed by Kawada, and Motoman SDA 10, an automaton that deftly moved its arms to solve one complex task after another. Like all robots, these surpassed humans in strength, stamina and reliability, but weren’t that great in adapting to changing conditions. At the end of 2019…

• Robot’s DNA, Biofuel Cells and Holographic Protection: SCAMT Workshop Week at ITMO

  …nanomaterials have on them, in particular. The thing is that it is pretty difficult to reach the bacteria in these biofilms with antibiotics, but this problem can be partially solved by the use of nanomaterials. These materials initiate the transfer of genetic information inside the films, and we can take advantage of this characteristic. For example, we used nanomat…
