Faster Drugs!

At least as far as development goes.

Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology have developed a device that has the potential to significantly reduce the time needed to analyze these important proteins, shortening development time for new drugs and bringing down the overall cost of protein analysis technology. According to findings published in Applied Physics Letters, the device can potentially analyze proteins much faster, more gently and at a lower cost.

“The device has the potential to completely change the landscape of this field,” said Andrei Fedorov, an associate professor in the Woodruff School of Mechanical Engineering at Georgia Tech who leads the project. Fedorov’s collaborators on the project include Professor F.L. Degertekin from the Woodruff School of Mechanical Engineering and Professor F.M. Fernandez from the School of Chemistry and Biochemistry.

That’s interesting. I thought it would be a rule change at the FDA, but this is much more impressive.

A good addition to your long-running ‘Neat Shit’ series of threads, Tuckerfan.

Damn I thought they’d invented some sort of Super-meth.

Or a faster delivery mechanism for LSD.

That, or Tucker was in some sort of Hunter S. Thompson like frenzy and was shouting “Faster, Drugs! Faster!”
