A new study presents an artificial intelligence system that scans images of the retina to detect signs of diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, gout, osteoporosis and thyroid disease in seconds.
New research shows that the only vaccine being tested to prevent and treat schistosomiasis can do both, and the researcher who made it possible is Afzal Siddiqui, Ph.D., from the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center (TTUHSC).
Bioness Medical announced today that it received FDA 510(k) clearance for its PoNS (portable neuromodulation stimulator) system.
Michigan State University researchers have identified how ovarian cancer cells become resistant to chemotherapy and discovered a protein that, when blocked, can restore the drug’s effectiveness.
A simple bedside eye test may help predict recovery of consciousness in patients with severe brain injuries, according to new research presented at the European Academy of Neurology (EAN) Congress 2026.
Researchers at the Medical University of Vienna and ETH Zurich have developed a rehabilitation platform for people suffering from the long-term effects of a stroke that combines virtual reality with targeted sensory nerve stimulation.
Researchers led by Jiawei Yang, Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) Assistant Professor in the Department of Mechanical and Materials Engineering, have designed a modular system that could potentially improve hydrogel implants in the body by customizing the materials for stiffness and functionality.
Associate Professor Hyun-Do Jung from Hanyang University and his team, based in Korea, have now developed an artificial intelligence (AI)-guided microneedle patch that actively changes shape at physiological temperature (37°C) to help close wounds while delivering regenerative therapy and antibacterial protection.
Researchers at Northwestern University, Sungkyunkwan University and other institutes recently developed a new implantable and bioresorbable system that could be used to electrically stimulate specific organs, muscles or nerves inside the body.
The clever trick that researchers at UiT The Arctic University of Norway came up with—and tested successfully—is to combine a natural polymer from algae, long chains of molecules, with a synthetic polymer. Then they added the antibiotic ciprofloxacin and folded the whole thing to pack it neatly into a capsule.
