23 Sensor100 September 2020 Reported by Select Science: Registration needed to view webinar Color-coded biosensor illuminates in real time how viruses attack hosts For the first time ever, a team at Coloado State University has shown an important mechanism in the virus host-attacking process, at the single-molecule level in living cells, and they have reproduced these be- haviors in computational models.Their new experiments and models, published in Na- ture Structural and Molecular Biology, reveal in unprecedented detail how viruses initiate translation of genetic material into proteins. Colorado State University News 21 September US-based researchers have created a porous silicone material which could be integrated into more comfortable wearables bio- sensors to allow for sweat evaporation. Reported by: Engineering andTechnology 1 6 September A single cell that shows different types of translation in different colors, using a color-coded biosensor.
