Babies, Parenthood and the Brain: What Do We Know?

Early interactions between babies and their parents can help to nurture the developing infant brain, and changes can also be observed in the brains of new parents. So, what has recent research taught us about babies, parenthood and the brain?

Make Your Lab Life Easier With Thermo Fisher Connect Platform, Team Edition

Ensuring the security of crucial research data is a significant challenge. Reserving time and controlling access to instruments, and sharing, searching and analysing data, should be easier than authoring a paper, right? Thermo Fisher Connect Platform, Team edition, is here to make lab life easier.

CellCelector Flex - High-throughput Image-based Single Cell Cloning

With the CellCelector Flex single cell and colony picking platform, you can now effectively assess and verify your clones before deciding which ones to choose. In less than one week, you will obtain monoclonal, viable, and productive colonies from your pool of single cells. Instead of relying on large quantities of plates to produce a winner you can now use actual data to reliably predict the future of your clones. This saves consumable and media costs, incubator space, and most of all valuable time by avoiding missteps, a second cloning round, and unnecessary procedures

Gene Transfer Between Maternal and Newborn Microbiomes Helps Shape Infant Development

Researchers say microbes in the maternal gut share genes with the newborn's gut microbes during early life, which potentially contributes to immune and cognitive development.

Key Reason Why Loss of Smell Occurs in Long COVID-19 Identified

According to a study, the reason some people fail to recover their sense of smell after COVID-19 is linked to an ongoing immune assault on olfactory nerve cells and an associated decline in the number of those cells.
