NASA-ISRO Launch Joint Space Biology Experiments on Axiom Mission 4
NASA and ISRO are launching a series of innovative biological and technological experiments aboard Axiom Mission 4, targeting a June 10 liftoff. Investigations will explore muscle cell health, seed germination, algae growth, and the survival of tardigrades in space. They will also study astronaut interactions with electronic displays. These microgr...

New UCLA Therapy Shows Promise in Preventing Heart Failure After Heart Attacks
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...

Researchers Develop Grain-Sized Robots Capable of Carrying Multiple Drugs
Researchers at NTU Singapore have introduced a grain-sized, magnetic robot capable of delivering multiple drugs directly to specific body sites. These robots, constructed from body-safe polymers and magnetic particles, offer an alternative to traditional pills or injections by precisely targeting treatment areas, reducing potential side effects. Th...

AI Unlocks “DNA Grammar” for Targeted Gene Editing, Enhancing Gene Therapy, and More
Researchers at The Jackson Laboratory, Broad Institute, and Yale University use AI to identify DNA sequences that control gene activation in specific cells. This AI model decodes patterns in DNA regions called cis-regulatory elements (CREs), guiding synthetic DNA switches for cell-specific gene activity. Early testing in animal models showed succes...

Innovative mRNA Delivery Technique Could Correct Genetic Disorders Before Birth
A recent study from UC Davis and UC Berkeley has unveiled a groundbreaking mRNA delivery method capable of editing genes in fetal brain cells. By administering mRNA encapsulated in lipid nanoparticles, researchers successfully targeted genetic disorders such as Angelman syndrome before birth. This approach, which minimizes risks of inflammation, of...

Cancer Treatment in Mice With Radioactive Beam Could Open Up a High-Precision Technique to Treat Humans
A recent study reveals the first successful use of radioactive ion beams to treat tumours in mice. Scientists utilised carbon-11 ions to pinpoint treatment locations, offering real-time tracking capabilities. This advancement could lead to more precise cancer therapies, especially for tumours located near sensitive areas.

New Study Reveals the Brain Stores Multiple Copies of Every Memory
Recent research sheds new light on how the brain stores and manages memories, revealing that it maintains at least three distinct copies of each memory. This study, conducted on rodents, provides valuable insights into the brain's memory encoding process and suggests that multiple types of neurons play a role in storing these memories. The research...
