The functioning of human cells resembles the way a city relies on a precise transport system to deliver various things and materials to their correct locations. However, the high speed of this transport system in the human body has created significant challenges for the scientists studying it. A research team led by Dr. Frank Lin (林玉俊), Distinguished Professor of the Institute of Molecular Medicine at National Tsing Hua University (NTHU) in Taiwan, has recently developed a "rivet system" (RIVET) that acts like a cellular transport freeze technique. Learn More

Associate professors Kai-Ti Lin (林愷悌) of the Institute of Biotechnology and Hui-Chun Cheng (鄭惠春) of the Institute of Bioinformatics and Structural Biology at National Tsing Hua University (NTHU) in Taiwan have jointly identified the molecular mechanism by which cancer cells rapidly multiply---a mystery that has puzzled the scientific community for nearly a century. They found that cancer cells release hydrogen sulfide gas, which changes the structure of an important protein in the cells, allowing cancer cells to utilize large amounts of glucose for biosynthesis, thereby accelerating tumor growth. Their research has recently been published in the international journal Nature Communications. Learn More
