Scientists at the Mind, Brain, and Behavior Research Center at the University of Granada (CIMCYC) have revealed how, when faced with highly appetizing and unhealthy food stimuli, many overweight people or those prone to binge eating keep their impulsive system hyperactive, while their reflective or conscious thinking system takes a back seat.

Researchers have developed a first-of-its-kind device to profile the immune function of newborns. Using a single drop of blood, the BiophysicaL Immune Profiling for Infants (BLIPI) system provides real-time insights into newborns’ immune responses, enabling the early detection of severe inflammatory conditions and allowing for timely interventions.

It took Glenn Calverley a while to figure out he was having a stroke. It just felt like a really bad headache that wouldn’t go away. But then he noticed his vision had changed dramatically and he knew something was seriously wrong.

3D tissue engineering, which recently has undergone other major advances in speed and accuracy, helps biomedical researchers design and test therapies for a range of diseases.
