Mouse models are central to drug development, including treatments for neurological disorders, such as Parkinson’s disease. Such diseases often affect movement, and treatments may need to relieve symptoms such as tremors.
Mayo Clinic researchers have developed a new artificial intelligence (AI) tool that helps clinicians identify brain activity patterns linked to nine types of dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease, using a single, widely available scan—a transformative advance in early, accurate diagnosis.
New treatment option offers continuous symptom control for patients with advanced Parkinson’s disease, enhancing quality of life through minimally invasive drug delivery
Designed for long-term monitoring and patient comfort, EmbraceMini sets a new benchmark in wearable technology for decentralized and real-world evidence studies.
Scientists are increasingly finding that the gastrointestinal (GI) tract plays a vital role in our overall health. While its main functions center around digestion, the GI tract is also involved in the production of hormones, immune cells, and even neurotransmitters that can affect mood and brain function. As such, the GI tract is host to many different biomarkers that can be useful for identifying, monitoring, and treating disease—everything from short-chain fatty acids that are indicators of metabolic syndrome to cytokines that are biomarkers of inflammation.
What if a blood test could reveal the pace of our aging—and the diseases that may lie ahead? The labs of Profs. Liran Shlush and Amos Tanay at the Weizmann Institute of Science have been conducting in-depth studies into the biology of blood to better understand the aging process and why some people become more susceptible to disease over the years.
Current tuberculosis infection tests struggle to detect the disease in those with HIV. A common co-infection, HIV can hide TB from traditional tests by eliminating the immune cells relied upon to sound the alarm.
A new tool—seen as the Google Earth for genomics—will transform how scientists visualize and analyze genomic data, advancing cancer research techniques.
STENTiT has implanted its Resorbable Fibrillated Scaffold in the first patient enrolled in the VITAL-IT 1 study evaluating the device for chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) below the knee.
Nuro announced the unveiling of Gridly, a wireless system designed to deliver neurological control of Microsoft and Apple software.
