Drug repurposing is reshaping medicine. Discover how changing a drug's route of administration — not the molecule itself — can unlock new therapeutic potential.

Understanding the human brain remains one of the greatest challenges in modern science. With billions of neurons forming intricate networks and constantly changing connections, the brain’s complexity makes it extremely difficult to study directly.

Too big, it hits your throat. Too small, you exhale it. The sweet spot delivers drugs exactly where they're needed.

Scientists are closer than ever to detecting life beyond Earth. From Mars to distant exoplanets, modern astronomy is transforming the search for alien life.

Small fruit fly is an excellent model organism used by scientists to study various aspect of human health and diseases such as development, regeneration, wound healing, cancer and stem cell research

Lithium-metal batteries, equipped with lithium metal anodes, have the remarkable ability to store over twice the energy of traditional lithium-ion batteries with graphite anodes. Despite this potential, most battery-powered devices continue to rely on less advanced lithium-ion technology.

Haploinsufficient genes show how losing one gene copy can affect brain development, increasing risk for neurodevelopmental disorders and behaviour changes.

India holds the world's 5th largest Rare Earth reserves but produces less than 1%. Explore the science and strategy behind India's quest for mineral sovereignty and high-tech independence.

Biologics have transformed the management of chronic and life-threatening diseases such as cancer, autoimmune disorders, and metabolic conditions. However, their complexity, high production costs, and limited affordability continue to challenge healthcare systems worldwide.

This article makes those steps explicit. I describe a repeatable cognitive pipeline I call Stained-Glass Thinking, which I have used consistently throughout the development of Relational Field Theory (RFT).

article discusses how plant synthetic biology is reshaping biofortification strategies, particularly through approaches such as heterologous pathway engineering and transporter-based redistribution

With the potential of AI tools revolutionizing the world of healthcare, there are ethical risk factors that need to be looked at before their implementation.

Animal models have traditionally served as the cornerstone of drug safety evaluation; however, major translational challenges persist due to interspecies differences in physiology, metabolism, and genetic regulation. Many compounds demonstrating favorable toxicity profiles in animals later fail during human trials or are withdrawn post-marketing due to unforeseen adverse effects, especially hepatotoxicity and cardiotoxicity (Lee et al., 2025).

Self-healing materials (SHMs) are substances that automatically repair damage, mimicking organic healing. These materials have a wide range of applications, including construction, biomedicine, transportation, and even textiles. SHMs can extend the longevity of manufactured goods and have numerous uses in medical healing (Crawford, 2024).

Modern healthcare is undergoing a silent revolution. Now to treat a disease in the healthcare system, there is no longer a need to wait for symptoms to appear.

Can algorithms predict sickness before you feel it? Explore how AI is using smartwatch data and ECGs to detect diseases like Alzheimer's and AFib early.

Selective oxidation reactions are central to modern biochemistry. They enable the controlled introduction of oxygen into organic molecules, a key step in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals. However, many of the enzymatic systems traditionally used for these transformations are complex and difficult to implement in practice.

Modern physics often assumes that the complexity we observe in the universe reflects an underlying complexity in its fundamental structure. Fields, particles, forces, and geometries are typically introduced as independent components, each carrying its own degrees of freedom.

A magnificent nonsurgical radiofrequency (RF) therapy, which involves using energy waves to heat the dermis (the deep layer of the skin), has evolved as one of the finest treatments for skin tightening. The healthcare provider uses an electromagnetic device that generates heat to stimulate collagen production, the production of elastin, and the growth of new skin cells. This therapy helps firm and lift sagging skin. However, the results are temporary.

Vaccines need precise temperature control to work but maintaining the cold chain wastes half of all doses globally. New thermostable formulations could change everything.
