(Boston) The Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering at Harvard University and Harvard Medical School (HMS) and the Massachusetts-based startup Rhinostics announced today that the University s sample collection swab and high-throughput automation technologies have been licensed to Rhinostics. The company will further develop and commercialize automated and multiplexed solutions for processing nasal samples from people suspected to have COVID-19 or other respiratory infectious diseases. The license was coordinated by Harvard s Office of Technology Development (OTD) in accordance with the University s commitment to the COVID-19 Technology Access Framework.

(BOSTON) ¬ Human cells typically transcribe half of their roughly 20,000 genes into RNA molecules at any given time. Just like with proteins, the function of those RNA species not only relies on their abundance but also their precise localization within the 3D space of each cell. Many RNA molecules convey gene information from the cell s nucleus to the protein-synthesizing machinery distributed throughout the cytoplasm (messenger RNAs or mRNAs), others are components of that machinery itself, while still different ones regulate genes and their expression, or have functions that remain to be discovered. Importantly, many diseases including cancer and neurological diseases have signatures that app
