Levitating nanoparticles using light: conveyor belts of the future
LCN Researchers from the Photonics and Nanotechnology group at King’s have reported an exciting new levitation phenomenon that involves shining light on nanoparticles which are made from a non-magnetic material. The light resonates with the nanoparticles to produce a...
Rare immune cells drive gut repair, but can tip toward cancer or fibrosis in inflammatory bowel disease
LCN researchers at King’s College London have discovered an unexpected tissue reparative role for a rare immune cell type in the gut that could tip toward fibrosis or cancer if dysregulated. The breakthrough will have important implications for treating patients who...
