A single monitoring network developed by McGill, Natural Resources Canada, Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM) and Dalhousie University researchers can simultaneously track earthquakes, water behavior, human activity and whales, providing a comprehensive picture of what's happening in, under and far from the water. The research is published in the journal Seismica.

New neutron method reveals inner architecture of drug delivery particles

A deep dive into drug delivery
This schematic shows how SAXS and SANS revealed complementary details about different drug delivery nanoparticles. SAXS helped determine the overall particle shape and dimensions, while SANS provided additional contrast to probe the internal structure. The numbers indicate dimensions in nanometers. The different structures reflect differences in nanoparticle composition: Tween and TPGS are surfactants used to stabilise the particles, and the study showed that changing these surfactants can alter particle shape, size distribution, and internal organization.

Modern medicine increasingly relies on targeted drug delivery—a process during which tiny particles (nanoparticles) transport drugs to specific parts of the body. To ensure these treatments are safe and effective, scientists need to understand exactly how these nanoparticles are built—including their size, shape, and internal structure.
