A pioneering technique, PRINCESS, prints the smallest human blood vessels to date, enabling realistic drug testing without animals. This offers a cost-effective, human-based model for drug screening and disease research.

Technology Networks breaks down the key insights from My Green Lab's 2024 Carbon Impact of Biotech & Pharma Report.

A clinical trial found psilocybin treatment for anorexia nervosa led to profound psychological shifts and reduced eating disorder severity in some participants. While 90% rated the experience as transformative, weight recovery remained inconsistent.

Researchers discovered that starlet sea anemones reshape their entire bodies during regeneration to maintain their original proportions. Using spatial transcriptomics, the team identified enzymes active throughout the body that realign tissues.

UT Health San Antonio researchers discovered that stress-induced migraines are driven by PACAP38 binding to MrgprB2 on mast cells, leading to inflammatory responses and trigeminal sensitization.

University of Waterloo researchers developed 3D-printed hydrogel-loaded contact lenses that deliver medication continuously while worn. The silicone-based hydrogel is durable, flexible and can encapsulate drugs like amoxicillin.

Researchers modeled coral responses to climate scenarios, revealing that natural adaptation may not suffice under current warming trends. Heat-sensitive corals like Acropora face local extinction risks from marine heatwaves.

Scientists examined 1.5-million-year-old fossils they unearthed, concluding they represent the first example of two sets of hominin footprints made about the same time. The discovery will provide more insight into human evolution.

Researchers uncovered a novel bacterial resistance strategy where E. coli modifies ribosomal structures to evade antibiotics like streptomycin and kasugamycin. Using nanopore sequencing, the study revealed ribosomal changes that prevent effective dru

A new approach to targeting a protein involved in cell division, which can misfunction in cancer, has revealed new insights into how it functions.
