Scientists from The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) and The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) have developed an in-vitro vesicle formation assay, shedding light on cargo clients and factors that mediate vesicular trafficking and providing a robust tool to offer novel insights into the secretory pathway.
The secretory pathway is a very important process that takes place in human cells. Many growth factors, hormones and other important factors in the human body are secreted from cells through the secretory pathway to perform their physiological functions. Read More...

A team of researchers from HKUST has developed an inexpensive, lightweight, and non-toxic (lead-free) photo-battery...
Scientists from HKUST have recently discovered a non-classical nucleation process that can greatly facilitate ice formation on foreign surfaces. This finding lays the foundation to predict and control crystallization processes...
