Haploinsufficient genes show how losing one gene copy can affect brain development, increasing risk for neurodevelopmental disorders and behaviour changes.
A low-energy dynamical approach could give companion AI the gift of long-term relational memory - especially valuable for eldercare.
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.
Explaining The Reciprocity Between Your Brain and Your Belly For the past decade, the scientific community has increased its focus on mental health disorders including anxiety, depression,
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.
You slept last night and woke up with a pimple popping up on your face! It would make you feel angry and depressed. Isn’t it? This could be hormonal acne. Hormonal acne could appear as common forms of acne, such as whiteheads, or more severe types of acne, such as nodules and cysts. Let us delve into and learn more about hormonal acne and various ways to deal with it.
Today, generalized anxiety disorder is affecting millions of Americans. The disorder usually traps the sufferers in cycles of fear and isolation in a way that even standard treatments cannot relieve completely. UCSF neuroscientist Jennifer Mitchell, PhD, is testing a surprising brand-new approach that can ease symptoms of generalized anxiety disorder by reshaping how the brain thinks and feels.
Environmental endocrine disruptors (EEDs) are natural and synthetic chemicals that interfere with endocrine system function by altering hormone synthesis, transport, metabolism, and receptor binding.
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.
Discover how AI is reshaping radiology, from faster diagnoses to improved accuracy, and what this means for patients and healthcare professionals.
Evolution is often imagined as a process that unfolds over millions of years. However, in microorganisms such as yeasts, evolutionary changes can occur much more rapidly. Yeasts reproduce quickly, populations grow to large sizes, and genetic variations can spread through generations in a short time.
Why is mucus the biggest obstacle to lung drug delivery? Explore the mucosal barrier science reshaping how we design inhaled medicines and vaccines.
What allows anything stable to exist at all? Before objects, laws, or equations can be described, something more basic must occur: something must persist long enough to be identified. This shifts the focus from what exists to the conditions under which anything can exist stably.
Alzheimer’s is a progressive neurological disorder with classic clinical symptoms such as dementia, cognitive decline, and behavioural changes, particularly in the ageing population.
Learn how the leading cause of death worldwide activates the immune system and how making a few lifestyle changes can decrease your risk of severe chronic disease.
Drug repurposing is reshaping medicine. Discover how changing a drug's route of administration — not the molecule itself — can unlock new therapeutic potential.
In this study, I explore how cancer risk is distributed across the animal kingdom, emphasizing the role of life-history traits, reproductive strategies, and social behavior in shaping susceptibility to disease. Drawing on recent findings in comparative oncology, the article examines patterns that challenge traditional assumptions, such as the relationship between body size and cancer, and highlights evolutionary mechanisms that may confer resistance in certain species.
A future without transplant waitlists? Tissue engineering blends biology and engineering to build living, functional human tissue.
The current trajectory of epilepsy management has encountered a formidable "refractory wall." Despite the accelerated expansion of the neuropharmacological pharmacopeia,
The tumor microenvironment (TME) is a complex and dynamic ecosystem composed of malignant cells, immune infiltrates, stromal elements, and vascular components that collectively influence tumor initiation, progression, immune escape, and therapeutic response. Traditional bulk transcriptomic approaches obscure this complexity by averaging gene expression across heterogeneous cell populations.
