Bacterial lysates and postbiotics can train your immune system to prevent respiratory infections. Here is why they matter in the era of antibiotic resistance.
Tuberculosis (TB) remains one of the world's deadliest infectious diseases, claiming over a million lives each year. TB is the deadliest infectious disease known today, claiming more lives than COVID-19. TB is caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis. TB spreads through the air when infected people breathe, cough, sneeze,
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).
ears pass in schoolrooms where future doctors study life's inner workings, cells, chemicals, and body parts. From books they recall illness patterns, how molecules bond, ways to spot health troubles
A future without transplant waitlists? Tissue engineering blends biology and engineering to build living, functional human tissue.
Learn what dehydration does inside your body from brain function and circulation to temperature control, symptoms, risks, and prevention tips.
Injury is an inherent risk of sport participation. Whether at elite or recreational level, athletes are exposed to physical loads that challenge tissue capacity and recovery.
Vancomycin is an essential glycopeptide antibiotic used to treat life-threatening infections caused by Gram-positive bacteria, particularly Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). It functions by inhibiting bacterial cell-wall synthesis and is still the most potent drug to be used when others fail (Patel, Preuss, & Bernice, 2023).
Artificial Intelligence(AI) is reshaping the future of healthcare. The US and UK healthcare systems started to adopt tools like AI Scribe and conversational chatbots, as they claimed to outperform clinicians in diagnostics. Survey data from over 100 physicians polled by Fierce Healthcare and Sermo indicate that many doctors are using general-purpose LLMs for clinical tasks.
Ever wonder what it’s like if a tiny chip could detect cancer before symptoms appear. Biosensor technology is transforming cancer detection- earlier, faster and more accessible for people worldwide
The human ear is often described as one of the most sophisticated sensory systems in biology. Within a structure no larger than a seashell, the auditory system can detect frequencies ranging from the faint rumble of distant thunder to the subtle harmonic texture of a violin string
Nanotechnology is having a big impact on pharmaceutical sciences, and drug delivery systems are one area where this is most evident. Compared to conventional medication delivery methods, nanoparticles provide a number of benefits, including increased effectiveness and fewer adverse drug reactions.
In Sci-fi visions of distant futures, some imagine sprawling intergalactic civilizations. Scaffolds built around stars harvesting their energy. Fusion reactors, cyborgs, superintelligent implants. But the future of artificial bones, though perhaps more mundane, could be a life saving science.
Cell and gene therapies represent a seismic shift in healthcare. They promise to cure the incurable, restoring sight to the blind and erasing cancer from the blood. But this frontier is wild. It comes with biological price tags, potential genetic misfires, and a regulatory landscape that is still being mapped.
The gut microbiomeover 100 trillion microorganisms, communicates with the brain via the gut–brain axis, influencing mood, cognition, immunity, and stress regulation. Dysbiosis is linked to depression, anxiety, autism spectrum disorders, and neurodegenerative diseases, emphasizing its critical role in mental and neurological health.
A low-energy dynamical approach could give companion AI the gift of long-term relational memory - especially valuable for eldercare.
Inhaled antibiotics deliver drugs directly to lung infections, achieving better results with fewer side effects, which is a game-changer in fighting resistance.
Why is mucus the biggest obstacle to lung drug delivery? Explore the mucosal barrier science reshaping how we design inhaled medicines and vaccines.
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.
Discover how AI surveillance impacts psychological safety in the workplace and why constant monitoring might be killing your team's innovation.
