A coughing, sneezing, 3D-printed model of the human nose and upper airway has provided researchers with a better understanding of how airborne infections are transmitted. The knowledge will aid in ...

Using nose organoids, which model the complex interactions between human cells and virus, the team showed key differences between the infection by SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, and that ...

To more formally test this observation, we placed a three-dimensional model of a virtual human nose in the center of the fields of view of the display of an Oculus Rift: the left display seeing only ...

The team also used their human nose organoid model of RSV infection to test the efficacy of palivizumab, an FDA-approved monoclonal antibody to prevent severe RSV disease in high-risk infants.

It was a remarkably helpful venture as the human nose, which has some 400 odor receptors, could use a helping hand every now and then. In this case, the model was able to predict how different ...

Nose's unheralded neighbor: Maxillary sinuses allow noses to change shapes Date: March 12, 2013 Source: University of Iowa Summary: The maxillary sinuses, those pouches on either side of the human ...

This technology converts scent molecules into electrical signals and trains AI models on their unique ... similar to those of the human nose, into a single unit through a one-step selective ...

Acknowledging that differences in the shape of the human nose may come down to a random process called genetic drift, the researchers also established a role for natural selection. To demonstrate ...

A new antibiotic was right under our noses — or rather, in them. Produced by a bacterium living in the human nose, the molecule kills the potentially deadly methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus ...
