A team led by associate professor Anand Asthagiri explores the biophysics behind the spread of breast cancer, providing hope for future treatments and early diagnosis.

The 40th annual Northeast Bioengineering Conference drew more than 700 researchers to Northeastern last month.

Assistant professor of pharmaceutical sciences Tania Konry has developed a system that efficiently tests for a wide range of biological specimens. Whether you’re looking for complex cancer cell biomarkers in a sample or simple bacteria in drinking water, the system costs significantly less than standard approaches and spits out results in a fraction of the time.

Anand Asthagiri, associate professor of chemical engineering, has developed a method for driving cells from Point A to Point B with more precision than ever.
