BIONOVA Offers Treatment for Blemish Control

Blemish skin is a common problem often confused with Acne. The cause of skin blemishes is the local imbalance of skin metabolism while Acne is a skin decease caused by hormonal imbalances, overactive sebum production (skin oil) and the existence of a specific bacterial flora. If Acne skin is always Oily, Blemish skin can be Normal, Oily and Dry type.

Novel 3D Vaccine Offers More Effective Method to Harness the Immune System to Fight Cancer

NIBIB-funded researchers have developed a novel 3D vaccine that could provide a more effective way to harness the immune system to fight cancer as well as infectious diseases. The vaccine spontaneously assembles into a scaffold once injected under the skin and is capable of recruiting, housing, and manipulating immune cells to generate a powerful immune response. The vaccine was recently found to be effective in delaying tumor growth in mice.
