Tonix Pharmaceuticals Announces Groundbreaking Ceremony for Massachusetts R&D Facility to House the Advanced Development Center (ADC) for Vaccine Programs
Shire plc, the global biotechnology leader in rare diseases, announced today that the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved the company’s first submission for its new plasma manufacturing facility near Covington, Georgia for the production of GAMMAGARD LIQUID® [Immune Globulin Infusion (Human)] 10% Solution, a replacement therapy for primary humoral immunodeficiency (PI).
covalent organic frameworks (COFs), were discovered in 2005, but their quality has been poor and preparation methods are uncontrolled. Now a Northwestern University research team is the first to produce high-quality versions of these materials, demonstrate their superior properties and control their growth. The researchers developed a two-step growth process that produces organic polymers with crystalline, two-dimensional structures.
A new experimental method permits the X-ray analysis of amyloids, a class of large, filamentous biomolecules which are an important hallmark of diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. An international team of researchers headed by DESY scientists has used a powerful X-ray laser to gain insights into the structure of different amyloid samples.
Juniper Pharma Services (JPS), a Contract Development and Manufacturing Organisation (CDMO) specialising in the development of challenging small molecules, has announced a significant expansion to its UK-based drug development and clinical trial manufacturing facilities.

Novacap, a worldwide player in pharmaceutical synthesis and advanced specialties, announced today that it has signed an agreement to acquire Boston-based PCI Synthesis, a leading U.S. pharmaceutical contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO), further reinforcing Novacap’s capabilities and offering for the pharmaceutical industry.
Coral-shaped nanoparticles built by design using engineered peptoids. Scientists manipulate shapes while enhancing optical properties of tiny particles.Researchers have long worked to address a grand challenge in synthesis science: to design and synthesize bio-inspired functional materials that rival those found in biology.
MIT engineers have developed a probiotic mix of natural and engineered a probiotic bacteria to diagnose and treat cholera, an intestinal infection that causes severe dehydration. Cholera outbreaks are usually caused by contaminated drinking water, and infections can turn fatal if not treated.
MIT engineers have created soft, 3D-printed structures whose movements can be controlled with a wave of a magnet, much like marionettes without the strings. The menagerie of structures that can be magnetically manipulated includes a smooth ring that wrinkles up, a long tube that squeezes shut, a sheet that folds itself, and a spider-like “grabber” that can crawl, roll, jump, and snap together fast enough to catch a passing ball.
