A new study has uncovered how "Conan the Bacterium" can withstand radiation doses thousands of times higher than would kill a human.

Inspired by helical structures, researchers have developed an artificial polymer that organizes itself into a controlled helix.

Researchers have shed new light on how Toxoplasma gondii parasites make the proteins they need to evade drug treatment.

A new, more sustainable AI model recognizes visual scenes by mirroring brain processes, opening doors for applications in medical diagnostics, drug discovery and beyond.

Researchers have identified key gene regulators that enable some animals to naturally regenerate their hearing.

Weight loss drugs like semaglutide may shrink heart muscle as well as waistlines, according to a new study. It found that the popular drug decreased heart muscle mass in lean and obese mice.

Researchers identified plasma proteins linked to brain aging using imaging and proteomics. Key biomarkers, like BCAN and GDF15, highlight early molecular signs of cognitive decline and disease risk.

Researchers used glioblastoma-derived organoids to predict patient responses to CAR T cell therapy with remarkable accuracy. These organoids mirrored the tumor’s reaction to treatment in real time, offering insights into efficacy and neurotoxicity.

A UT Southwestern trial found selinexor, an FDA-approved drug, effective in KRAS-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Combined with chemotherapy, it achieved tumor control in 80% of cases.

Research from SLAC-Stanford shows EV batteries last longer in real-world use than lab tests suggest. Dynamic driving conditions, such as braking and resting periods, reduce battery degradation, challenging lab-based predictions.
