“The new technique lets scientists study the effects of perturbing over 20,000 genes on hundreds of image-based cellular features. Generating data with the method is more than 10 times less expensive than comparable high-dimensional approaches such as high-throughput single-cell RNA […]
“Welcome to 4D printing, a frontier in material and manufacturing science that has been rapidly expanding over the past decade. While 3D printing has captured global attention for its ability to create objects layer by layer, 4D printing adds the […]
This is not ready for clinical use yet, but is an exciting new methodology. “To detect the presence of these proteases in the blood, the researchers developed nanosensors containing a magnetic nanoparticle attached to a small peptide that attracts matrix […]
A study of over 105k women found the AI detected 29% more cancers with only minor increase in false positives. ~ learn more
I rarely hear scientists expressing confidence like this: “And while the BCL6 discovery came through a study on mice, researchers are confident it will translate to human physiology.” ~ learn more
This is a bit of a dense writing flush with scientific names and terms, but its short. There’s growing evidence that a gut microbe has a causal role in major depressive disorder. ~ learn more
The best part about this is that it’ll be old news in a year. “A breakthrough new AI model is able to detect the presence of different lung diseases from ultrasound videos, with 96.57% accuracy, and it is even able […]
This is more story than science. “How a 17th-century physician followed his ‘gut feeling’ and proposed a link between the emotions and the stomach, which seemingly echoes the latest medical research on the brain–gut connection.” ~ learn more
“While traditional cement production gets its necessary calcium carbonate from limestone that releases carbon dioxide when heated in a kiln, the U-M researchers can make the calcium carbonate through an electrochemical process that captures CO2 from the air and binds […]
“Using data on over 100 million physician office visits, we compared ADHD diagnosis rates, by day, among children seen by physicians in the 10 weekdays surrounding seven Halloween holidays. The rate of new ADHD diagnosis was 62.7 per 10,000 child-visits […]
