UCLA’s Broad Center researchers have developed an antibody therapy to help the heart heal after a heart attack. This therapy, which blocks the ENPP1 protein, reduces scar tissue formation that can lead to heart failure. Early tests showed that treated animals had less scarring and a reduced risk of severe heart failure. With plans for human trial...

In a unique approach, African ports are employing trained giant pouched rats to sniff out illegal wildlife goods such as ivory and pangolin scales. This effort, led by APOPO, aims to aid customs officials in identifying smuggled items from endangered species. Agile and cost-effective, these rats are trained to detect specific scents in mock warehou...
