Organoid-Based Toxicity Testing as a Replacement for Animal Models
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 Many compounds demonstrating favorable toxicity profiles in animals later fail during human trials or are withdrawn post-marketing due to unforeseen adverse effects, especially hepatotoxicity and cardiotoxicity (Lee et al., 2025).

How Scientists Are Discovering the Next Generation of Tuberculosis Drugs
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,

Cancer, Cooperation, and Survival: Rethinking Disease Through Evolution
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.
