Speeds Up Development of Medicines and Vaccines by More Than One Million Times

I rarely post about new pharmaceutical technology...but this is nothing less than miraculous. 

Read the article linked above. This new technology enables researchers to synthesize and analyze 40,000 molecules in a bubble smaller than the head of a pin.

This will accelerate vaccine and pharmaceutical development by a factor of one million. This should also make the R&D cheaper, and far less wasteful of energy, materials, time and labor and therefore the cost of medicines should drop significantly. That should make all our lives better, and hopefully longer.

Just imagine how many lives will be saved.

As far as I know it's being utilized in mRNA vaccine production as well as drug analysis. There aren't recent references (2024 and 2025) to retrieve. Its real value is in cancer vaccine production and vaccine production in epidemic situations. It allows for tens of thousands of tests to be run with picograms of material.
