New research has shown that the blood vessels that feed aggressive brain tumors have receptors that could allow a new type of drug-containing nanoparticle to be used to starve the tumors of the energy they use to grow and ...
Scientists are vigorously competing to transform the counterintuitive discoveries about the quantum realm from a century past into technologies of the future. The building block in these technologies is the quantum bit, or ...
Scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital have demonstrated how drug makers can avoid two key problems: toxicity and resistance. The researchers made slight changes to a small molecule to reduce its metabolism and ...
A recent study published in the journal Science China Life Sciences was led by Dr. Nan Qiao (Laboratory of Health Intelligence, Huawei Cloud Computing Technologies), Dr. Hualiang Jiang (Shanghai Institute of Materia Medica, ...
High-resolution microscopy techniques, for example electron microscopy or super-resolution microscopy, produce huge amounts of data. The visualization, analysis and dissemination of such large imaging data sets poses significant ...
Snakes bite 5.4 million people each year—and roughly half are injected with venom, according to the WHO. Between 81,000 and 138,000 people die, while around three times as many suffer amputations and other permanent disabilities. ...
A team of researchers has developed a new method to screen FDA-approved drugs to determine if they could be repurposed or improved to help patients with a rare, debilitating disease of the nervous system.
An advanced imaging-based method from scientists at Scripps Research offers a new way of studying mitochondria.
A lethal microbial pathogen is lurking in warm freshwater ponds, reservoirs, and rivers around the globe: Naegleria fowleri, colloquially called brain-eating amoeba, which causes the disease primary amebic meningoencephalitis ...
Researchers from the University of Sussex and Universal Quantum have demonstrated for the first time that quantum bits (qubits) can directly transfer between quantum computer microchips and demonstrated this with record-breaking ...
