Recently, an expose article was published revealing a potential fabrication of data by prominent investigators of Alzheimer’s disease. In this op-ed piece, Michael Kinch explores the catastrophic impact of scientific fraud.

Over the last decade there has been a prolific “boom” in aging and anti-aging research, extending beyond academic work into biotech and big pharma. A new study calls the biomarkers used to track the benefits of "anti-aging" regimens, and to calculate biological age, into question.

The Binomial test, sometimes referred to as the Binomial exact test, is a test used in sampling statistics to assess whether a proportion of a binary variable is equal to some hypothesized value.

This article discusses acute kidney injury, calculating the glomerular filtration rate and the need for a reliable functional kidney biomarker.

Here we explore how biomarkers are driving the immuno-oncology landscape. We dive into cutting-edge biomarker research and the challenges facing the field.

A bias exists within proteomics, where certain proteins are studied less frequently than others. In this article, we hear from Professor Kathryn Lilley on why some proteins attract less research attention, why this is problematic and how The Understudied Protein Initiative hopes to overcome it.

In this feature article, Tanaaz Khan explores the "lingering" promise of lab-based, or "cultured" meat. Does it deliver on its promise of being a greener and more ethical alternative to meat?

This article describes the background and potential of the emerging field of glycoproteomics.

Dr. Alexandra Freeman believes that the major problems associated with research culture in science can be traced back to one source: the current scientific publishing model. In this interview with Technology Networks, she explains why a novel approach, called Octopus, is a logical solution to these issues.

To mark World Breastfeeding Week 2022, Technology Networks interviewed Dr. Alecia-Jane Twigger. Dr. Twigger is a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Cambridge, where her research focuses on understanding how factors such as pregnancy and lactation influence mammary gland biology, and breast cancer risk.
