• ITMO Researchers Suggest Quick and Effective Protein Immobilization Method for Cancer Treatment Testing

  A quick and effective way to immobilize proteins associated with tumor growth has been suggested at ITMO. The team behind it has found a way to reproduce the conditions found within living cells, but on the surface of microbalance sensors, allowing researchers to observe interactions between proteins and other biological molecules in real time. This way, it will be possible to uncover more about the nature of these proteins and reduce the time and resources needed to develop cancer treatments. The resulting paper was published in Langmuir.

• Researchers from St. Petersburg Discover Way to Expedite Dental Implant Surgery

  Scientists from ITMO University together with specialists from ZERTAN, a St. Petersburg-based dental company, have developed specialized software that can reduce the time needed to install dental implants. With this technology, medical specialists will be able to obtain a ready-made 3D model of a customized membrane needed to regenerate host tissue at the implant site within three minutes – instead of several hours, which it often takes in complex cases today. All they need to do is to load a computer tomography (CT) scan of a patient’s skull into the neural network.
