Exploring Yeast Cells to Develop New Drugs for Treatment
Biomedical researchers at the University of California, San Diego, have developed a new method for exploring how yeast cells respond to different drugs and other treatments. By using a combination of high-resolution imaging and computer-generated models, the team was able to observe how yeast cells responded to various treatments at the molecular level and then assess the effectiveness of each treatment. The findings, published in the journal Nature Communications, could lead to more effective treatments for a variety of diseases.
