The last two decades saw the establishment of three-dimensional (3D) cell cultures as an acknowledged tool to investigate cell behaviour in a tissue-like environment. Cells growing in spheroids differentiate and develop different characteristics in c...
Baricitinib is an oral Janus kinase (JAK)1/JAK2 inhibitor approved for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) that was independently predicted, using artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms, to be useful for COVID-19 infection via proposed anti-c...

As the field of mass spectrometry imaging continues to grow, so too do its needs for optimal methods of data analysis. One general need in image analysis is the ability to classify the underlying regions within an image, as healthy or diseased, for e...
Affordable and physiologically relevant three-dimensional (3D) cell-based assays used in high-throughput screening (HTS) are on the rise in early drug discovery. These technologies have been aided by the recent adaptation of novel microplate treatmen...
Multicellular spheroids (hereinafter referred to as spheroids) are 3D biological models. The metabolomic profiles inside spheroids provide crucial information reflecting the molecular phenotypes and microenvironment of cells. To study the influence o...

In vitro, pancreatic β-cells tend to reduce their ability to aggregate into islets and lose insulin-producing ability, likely due to insufficient cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions that are essential for β-cell retention, viability and functional...
Using macrophage recruitment in tumors, we develop active, transportable, cancer theragnostic macrophage-based microrobots as vector to deliver therapeutic agents to tumor regions. The macrophage-based microrobots contain docetaxel (DTX)-loaded poly-...

Image segmentation is a crucial task of medical image processing, including the analysis of multicellular tumour spheroids (MTSs), a common in vitro model used in cancer research for drug screening. Accurate segmentation of MTSs images allows the ext...
High-precision delivery of microrobots at the whole-body scale is of considerable importance for efforts toward targeted therapeutic intervention. However, vision-based control of microrobots, to deep and narrow spaces inside the body, remains a chal...
Three-dimensional (3D) tissue models such as epithelial spheroids or organoids have become popular for pre-clinical drug studies. In contrast to 2D monolayer culture, the characterization of 3D tissue models from non-invasive brightfield images is a ...
