There’s so much we can learn from extracellular vesicles (EVs)! Dr. Clàudio Pinheiro at Ghent University developed a series of tools to help standardizing research on EVs. It was an honor to represent the results of his work in a cover for his PhD thesis.
In this cover droplets of a biofluids turn into EVs, which then becomes information and connect to each other. This emphasizes how the analysis of biofluids and EVs can provide a network of information, fundamental for the research development. EVs are nanosized particles present in biofluids that can carry biomolecules and are extremely important for biological functions. However, the diversity of methods and protocols for their analysis pose a challenge for rigorous and reproducible research. Therefore, the development of a standardized toolbox to use in EV research is an important step towards a better understanding of EVs and their function.
Excited to see the future of this!
