The association between obesity and blood clots is already established. However, to date it has been unclear how much influence a raised…

Study in Science: Electrodes can grow in living tissue

24 February, 2023

NEW STUDY. Researchers at the Department of Chemistry & Molecular Biology at University of Gothenburg are partners in a research collaboration that successfully has grown electrodes in living tissue using the body’s molecules as triggers. The result, published in the journal Science, paves the way for the formation of fully integrated electronic circuits in living organisms. Linking electronics to biological tissue is important to understand complex biological functions, combat diseases…
