AI predicts bowel cancer relapse risk with improved accuracy
A new AI system from La Trobe University could help clinicians forecast relapse risk in patients with stage-two bowel cancer—potentially enabling earlier, life-saving treatment for...
Cryogenic environment enables strong strain tuning of excitons in ZrSe3
Straintronics is turning mechanical deformation into a switch for controlling the optical and electronic behavior of advanced layered materials. By stretching or compressing a crystal,...
Scientists Break Barriers to Regenerating Damaged Heart Tissue
Adult heart muscle cells have evolved an extraordinary stability: they are built for efficiency and endurance, not rapid rewiring. This is a major obstacle for...
Elephant Vaccine Early Results Show Protection Against Deadly Virus
More than 15 years of collaboration between Baylor College of Medicine (BCM) and Houston Zoo has produced the first peer-reviewed evidence that an experimental mRNA...
Obesity Remolds Pancreas Immune Landscape Through Dynamic Cellular Changes
Dynamic remodeling of the pancreas immune landscape in obesity A new study has revealed that obesity does not simply add chronic inflammation—it actively reshapes the...
Protected forests worldwide face growing thermal stress as cities expand
Protected forests that shield biodiversity from development pressures are now facing a different, rapidly intensifying threat: heat. A new study drawing on global observations finds...
Immunothrombotic Endotypes Shape How Developing Immunity Remodels After Therapy
A new study is reshaping how clinicians may think about childhood immune recovery after lifesaving treatments. Researchers investigating immunothrombotic processes propose that early immune development...
Early Team Care and Treatment for Cardiac Dysfunction in Infants With CDH
A new study appearing in Journal of Perinatology suggests that timing—and teamwork—can dramatically change outcomes for infants born with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH), a condition...
Bioiontronics Promises New Advances in Bioelectronic Devices
A new wave of technology is aiming to let machines “talk” to living systems using the language of ions and biomolecules. Known as bioiontronics, the...
Willingness to Pay for Quality-Adjusted Life Years Among Older Adults in Iran
A new study from Iran is putting a spotlight on how older adults weigh health gains in everyday economic terms, using the Quality-Adjusted Life Year...

Core2Edge Glioblastoma Model Tracks Infiltration and Transcriptional Heterogeneity
Viral Science News—A team reports a new fully human ex vivo platform designed to model how glioblastoma infiltrates the brain from a tumor core outward...
DNA Damage Response Pathways Inform New Cancer Immunotherapy Strategies
The DNA damage response (DDR) and the immune system may look like separate defense networks, but new research underscores how tightly they can cooperate to...
Spatial Transcriptomics Reveals Histology-Linked Growth Patterns in Colorectal Liver Metastases
A new study is turning the microscopic “how it grows” question in colorectal cancer liver metastases into a measurable molecular signature. Published in British Journal...
