What does stress actually do to your body? Explore the neurobiology of the survival response, from the immediate SAM axis to the the HPA axis, and learn how to restore your biological equilibrium.
What if one of the most powerful models for understanding the human brain were less than an inch long, transparent, and living in a small tank? Meet Danio rerio, the zebrafish.
In elite triathlon, the swim and bike segments are often viewed as the "decisive" moments. However, the data reveals a far more lopsided reality. According to García-González et al. (2026), running is the ultimate "great separator.
Epigenetics is transforming how scientists understand the bridge between genes and behavior, opening the door to a new era of mental health treatment.
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.
According to a study, sleeping in a dark room works wonders for your heart. During sleep, ambient light can put stress on the brain that causes arterial inflammation, which may again lead to a stroke or heart attack. Let us delve into and explore the study further.
For many people, it is often assumed to be a “Stress disease”. Others casually refer to it as an “Old man’s disease” based on the myth that it affects only the elderly. These assumptions, however banal, are misleading and potentially lethal.
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
Disorders of Gut–Brain Interaction (DGBIs), such as Functional Dyspepsia (FD) and Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), present a formidable clinical impasse due to their profoundly heterogeneous and multifactorial nature.
Explore the multi-organ cellular mapping of GLP-1 receptor agonists. Discover how GLP-1RAs act as a systemic shield across T2DM, obesity, PMOS, MASH and so on.
Tiny but powerful, basement membranes support cells, regulate barriers, and drive disease when disrupted—key players in health, aging, and cancer.
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.
Cells can be understood as highly coordinated systems in which DNA functions as a comprehensive but inert blueprint, requiring precise interpretation to become biologically active. Gene expression depends on regulatory proteins that orchestrate transcription across time and space.
Many times, individuals feel fearful or extremely worried about cancer testing. The regular tests and scans that patients living with any cancer diagnosis have to undergo, to monitor their condition, can make them feel anxious before, during, or after a scan or a follow-up test
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).
Alzheimer’s is a progressive neurological disorder with classic clinical symptoms such as dementia, cognitive decline, and behavioural changes, particularly in the ageing population.
Symptoms of anxiety disorders can interfere with daily life activities, such as performance at work, being in social gatherings, and relationships. In severe cases of anxiety, there might be a feeling of intense fear in common situations, a preference for isolation, or a refusal to leave their homes
Discover how AI surveillance impacts psychological safety in the workplace and why constant monitoring might be killing your team's innovation.
Out of so many mental disorders, a rare disorder is the Fregoli delusion or Fregoli syndrome (FS), in which an individual holds a delusional belief that different people are in fact a single person, who keeps on changing appearances quickly or is in disguise. People affected with this condition often experience anxiety, paranoia, and agitation. It can impact the patient’s mental health and their safety and the safety of others.
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.
