With the ongoing pandemic of COVID-19, there is long wait for the vaccine to be approved. Even after the vaccine gets approved, there is no assurance of the complete eradication of virus. There will still be percentage of people who contract the illness. Therefore, it is very important to trace and detect the treatments in

The recent years have portrayed the renaissance in the domain of microbial fermentation, as microbial biopharma industry has once again gained attention towards the production of biologics using microbial expression system. The modification and innovation in the microbial expression systems for the production of various biologics have side-lined some of the earlier concerns associated with

While the definition of real world evidence is still evolving, most proponents associate it with data that is derived from medical practice among heterogeneous sets of patients in the real world setting. It is the integration of data gathered from various sources, such as EHRs, medical charts, patient claims and billing activities, product and disease

Advancements in the field of disease diagnostics have led to development of point-of-care medical imaging devices; handheld ultrasound scanners have emerged as a novel solution to cater to unmet need in this domain. These handheld ultrasound imaging devices are the lightest portable ultrasound devices, which permit patient diagnosis from a single transducer and transmit images

As per the experts, one of the key reasons for the failure of therapeutic candidates in clinical trials is the use of conventional 2-dimensional (2D) cell culture systems in early research studies. The 2D systems are severely limited in a number of aspects. For instance, only 50% of the cell surface is exposed to the

Digital therapeutics are clinically validated applications / software / online programs that have demonstrated the capability to facilitate positive outcomes when used in the prevention / treatment / management of diseases / clinical conditions. These therapeutics are designed to engage patients in personalized treatment or disease prevention programs, through mediating behavioral or psychological modifications, providing

The techniques used for the drug delivery are found to be have an enormous impact on the efficacy of the treatment. In fact, the slow progression of the efficacy, has suggested the need of different approaches for the effective delivery of drug to the target area, along with the optimal bioavailability. Over the years, several

The gradual shift of healthcare industry towards the development of biologics is a well-known fact. Owing to this shift, there are over 1,000 cell and gene therapies which are being developed for the treatment of various disorders, majority of them being oncological disorders, cardiovascular disorders and neurological disorders.  Additionally, over the last decade, multiple immunotherapies
