A Japanese term that once seemed like little more than a specialized label helped create and preserve an entire branch of physics, according to a...

A research team in Japan has won a US$1 million Milestone 2 award in the XPRIZE Healthspan competition for developing engineered “super exosomes,” microscopic biological...

A new study has brought scientists closer to observing how inflammation during pregnancy may alter the earliest stages of human brain development. Using three-dimensional tissue...

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is being redefined by molecular biology. Once viewed mainly as a disorder of excessive blood-vessel constriction, the disease is now understood...

Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) have become one of the most important delivery technologies in modern medicine, helping transport messenger RNA into cells for vaccines, protein replacement...

The price of saving a newborn’s life can extend far beyond the hospital walls. A new analysis published in the Journal of Perinatology is drawing...

Expansion microscopy has spent the past decade changing the rules of super-resolution imaging. Instead of relying solely on increasingly sophisticated optics, the technique physically enlarges...

Foundation models are promising to become the “universal translators” of biomedical data—but a new perspective argues that medicine should resist treating them as all-knowing digital...

A newly published study is drawing attention to an intricate molecular conversation inside breast epithelial cells: the crosstalk between SELENOF, a selenium-associated protein linked to...

Parkinson’s disease and multiple system atrophy can begin with remarkably similar symptoms: slowed movement, stiffness, tremor, balance problems and changes in speech. Yet beneath those...

Extremely premature infants who require mechanical ventilation face a difficult transition when clinicians attempt to remove the breathing tube. Extubation can be a major step...

Wiley has released the 2026 edition of the Wiley Registry/NIST Mass Spectral Library, an expanded reference database designed to help scientists identify unknown chemical compounds...

In a breakthrough that could transform the study of strongly correlated quantum matter, researchers at the University of Basel and the Technical University of Munich...

A new study is drawing attention to a possible biological pathway connecting polluted air with lung cancer: the chemical changes that appear in the bloodstream...

A new study published in Cell Death Discovery identifies diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 1, or DGAT1, as an important regulator of macrophage pyroptosis during infection with Klebsiella...
