A new combination of chemotherapy and immunotherapy shows promise for treating inoperable malignant pleural mesothelioma, according to new research.

A research team has developed a system to induce massive sexual conversion of the malaria parasite in vitro, which could help in designing new tools to block malaria transmission.

Researchers have developed a jet-printed, graphene-based electrochemical sensor capable of detecting toxins in food much faster than standard laboratory tests.

A candidate treatment that utilizes cow antibodies to combat COVID-19 may be able to produce four times the level of neutralizing antibodies as seen in conventional human convalescent plasma serum, the compound's developer has announced.

A novel mechanism of chemoresistance has been identified, which is driven by the Unfolded Protein Response, a cellular stress response pathway that alters gene expression and cellular metabolism to promote adaption and cell survival upon accumulation of unfolded proteins.

A new sensor that can give an immediate response to the presence of SARS-CoV-2 could dramatically improve the efficiency of testing and overcome some of the current surveillance bottlenecks, believe its developers.

Scientists have developed a new model to study an early stage of human development, using human embryonic stem cells. The model resembles some key elements of an embryo at around 18-21 days old and allows the researchers to observe the processes underlying the formation of the human body plan never directly observed before.

Baricitinib, a drug approved as a treatment for rheumatoid arthritis, could potentially be repurposed to treat patients with COVID-19, according to a new study.

According to a new study, the main source of errors in determining spatial position and apparently the cause of age-related orientation problems is a "noisy" and therefore imprecise perception of the speed at which one is moving.

In a new study involving participants from the Kronos Early Estrogen Prevention Study, researchers investigated the link between hormone therapies and structural changes in the brain.
