Using a simple childhood observation as the starting point, we show how shifting from origin-based to boundary-based thinking resolves infinite regress and opens a clearer way to engage with fundamental concepts in physics, time, and existence
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.
Natural polysaccharides like locust bean gum and chitosan are replacing lactose as safer, more effective carriers for inhaled medications and vaccines.
Antibiotic resistance is making common infections hard to treat. Learn why it happens, how it affects communities in Nigeria and beyond, and what we can do to protect these life-saving medicines.
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.
Stem cell therapy research is a promising area of interest for a number of scientists working to understand Parkinson’s disease and develop treatments for it. Read below to learn more about the advancements of stem cell therapy for Parkinson’s.
These innovative testes, derived from meticulously cultured mouse cells, closely mimic the structure of natural testes, featuring the complex network of sperm tubes essential for reproduction.
A low-energy dynamical approach could give companion AI the gift of long-term relational memory - especially valuable for eldercare.
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.
Imagine being able to control a computer, a prosthetic limb, or even a drone just by using your thoughts. This is not science fiction; it is now a reality thanks to brain-computer interfaces (BCIs). BCIs are groundbreaking systems that enable direct communication between the brain and external devices.
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.
Discover how antigen-presenting cells like dendritic cells and macrophages are being recruited through smart particle design for vaccines and immunotherapy.
As a pharmacist during clinical clerking, I frequently encounter patients who use the term “toilet infections” to describe symptoms that clinically align with bacterial vaginosis, urinary tract infections, or yeast infections. This widespread misconception often stems from the assumption that symptoms occurring after the use of public toilets must be caused by them.
Smart nanoparticles are an exciting step forward in modern medicine especially nanomedicine. They help doctors be more precise in cancer treatment.
The current trajectory of epilepsy management has encountered a formidable "refractory wall." Despite the accelerated expansion of the neuropharmacological pharmacopeia,
Learn what dehydration does inside your body from brain function and circulation to temperature control, symptoms, risks, and prevention tips.
Artificial wombs, or ectogenesis, represent a revolutionary breakthrough in science that has the potential to change the future of reproductive health. By allowing embryos to grow completely outside the human body, this innovative technology mimics the nurturing environment of a natural womb.
From innovative methods for cancer treatment to understanding the complexities of the human gut biome, these discoveries not only enhance our comprehension of the world but also lay the foundation for future groundbreaking advancements.
Mathematics is often described as the universal language of the universe, a field that transcends cultures and eras to provide the tools for understanding the world. From the ancient geometries of Egypt to modern computational algorithms, mathematics is at the heart of human discovery and technological progress.
Haploinsufficient genes show how losing one gene copy can affect brain development, increasing risk for neurodevelopmental disorders and behaviour changes.
