Mini lung organoids made in bulk could help test personalized cancer treatments
A team of scientists have developed a simple method for automated manufacturing of lung organoids which could revolutionize the development of treatments for lung disease. These organoids, miniature structures containing the cells that real lungs do, could be used to test early-stage experimental drugs more effectively, without needing to use animal material.

Magnetic microcatheters offer precise, minimally invasive delivery for reproductive medicine
A new international study led by the Nanobiosystems group at CIC nanoGUNE, is developing miniature, non-invasive, precise robotic catheters for use in reproductive medicine and gynecological health.

Single dose RSV vaccine protection found to wane over 18 months
Research led by the Veterans Affairs Portland Health Care System in Portland, Oregon, found that a single dose of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccine reduced RSV infections and RSV-related emergency visits, hospitalizations, and intensive care unit admissions among US veterans 60 years and older across two respiratory illness seasons. Protection was seen declining over time and falling most among immunocompromised individuals.

New technique maps genetic variants driving neurodegenerative disease risk
A team led by researchers from Penn State College of Medicine has developed a new method that substantially improves the ability to map the genetic variants that drive disease, particularly neurodegenerative diseases.
