Tertiary lymphoid structures (TLSs)—immune-cell aggregates that form in many solid tumours—have been linked to better outcomes from immune checkpoint blockade. But how TLSs shape the...
Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS), driven by SFTS virus, can trigger life-threatening systemic inflammation, yet targeted host-directed therapies have remained limited. In new work...
A new study published in Communications Engineering reports a quasi-two-stage heat pump designed to tackle a stubborn energy problem: how to deliver both space heating...
A new study published in Light: Science & Applications reports a “sliding metasurface” design that enables wide-angle beam steering while maintaining unusually sharp frequency selectivity....
A new study is stirring excitement across computational pathology, as researchers evaluate how well today’s “vision and pathology foundation models” translate into real diagnostic performance....
Stuffed toys may be doing more than keeping children company: a new study suggests they can also act as a route for oral exposure to...
A new study in Nature Communications suggests that the way rural households in China spend energy on food—rather than total income alone—can act as a...
A new study highlights how a little-known protein, OTUB1, can reshape cell death pathways in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Researchers report that OTUB1 acts as a...
Mental health conditions are a persistent source of adolescent illness and early death, but national-scale, long-term mortality patterns have remained unclear. Now, a new analysis...
Neonatal intensive care units are increasingly becoming decision laboratories: clinicians must synthesize rapidly changing vital signs, lab results, imaging, and historical context—often under time pressure...
A new study in Nature Cities has mapped how where you live in Greater Accra can determine whether you reach emergency obstetric and newborn care...
A new perspective article in npj Parkinson’s Disease (2026) explores how exposure to ionizing radiation could intersect with the biological processes implicated in Parkinson’s disease....
A team led by Li and colleagues has unveiled a flexible MRI receive coil engineered to stay mechanically stable while delivering high-fidelity images across both...
Engineers at the University of California San Diego have built what they describe as a first-of-its-kind integrated smart ring designed for daily biochemical monitoring. Unlike...
In papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), cancer progression is increasingly understood as a product of two intertwined signaling engines: MAPK and PI3K/AKT. While these pathways normally...
