From 11 July to 20 July 2019, the annual MPS therapy week and bi-annual MPS Conference was hosted in Hinterglemm, in the South-East of Salzburg, Austria.
Over the course of those days, individuals affected with mucopolysaccharidoses and similar lysosomal disorders,...
The fact that trees have difficulties surviving in urban environments is not a surprise. Urban areas are rarely designed with trees in mind.
Trees are often treated as if they were afterthoughts in an environment designed and built for cars,...
Gene banks keep a range of biological material: gametes, embryos, DNA, somatic tissues, biological fluids. They represent a major investment for research institutions as well as for governments for the preservation of genetic diversity.
The challenge is to evaluate the...
Lead-acid batteries have been indispensable for industrial progress, but at what cost?
As the world is looking towards cleaner and greener energy and recycling solutions, we ask: where will the surplus lead go? Is there a better way?
The lead-acid battery...
