Researchers identify new type of T cell that could play role in cancer, other diseases
December 2018 | Science News
Researchers have identified a new type of T cell called a phospholipid-reactive T cell that is able to recognize phospholipids, the molecules that help form cells' outer membranes.
Liquid Biopsy Detects Epigenetic Signature Common to All Cancers
December 2018 | Science News
The team of researchers discovered that the genome of a cancer cell is essentially barren except for intense clusters of methyl groups at very specific locations.
A bacterial protein is found to promote cancer
December 2018 | Science News
Research suggests suggests that bacterial infections may contribute to far more cancers than previously thought.
Small Connection Discovered Between Brain Size, Cognitive Performance
December 2018 | Science News
The researchers found that, as previous studies have suggested, a positive relationship does exist between brain volume and performance on cognitive tests. But that finding comes with important caveats.
The future of fighting cancer: Zapping tumors in less than a second
December 2018 | Science News
New accelerator-based technology aims to reduce the side effects of cancer radiation therapy by shrinking its duration from minutes to under a second. Built into future compact medical devices, technology developed for high-energy physics could also help make radiation therapy more accessible around the world.
Nuclear Medicine: Origin, Crisis, and Renaissance
November 2018 | Science News
The invention of a new isotope production method gave birth to the field of nuclear medicine. The invention at the BNL revolutionized how Tc-99m is produced--by simply eluting the generator with an aqueous solution, one can extract Tc-99m from the generator allowing pharmacists to generate the medical isotope on demand inside healthcare facilities, making it much easier for doctors and patients around the world to access nuclear medicine.
Researchers design starch and graphene hydrogel geared towards electrodes for brain implants
November 2018 | Science News
Scientists say that the traditional electrodes of neural interfaces made of platinum or gold, for example, are rigid, they require conductive polymer coatings to bring their flexibility closer to that of neural tissue.
FDA Approval for Tumor-Agnostic Cancer Drug Vitrakvi
November 2018 | Science News
The first cancer treatment with a tumor-agnostic indication at the time of initial authorization, with approval based on mutation type rather than on where in the body the tumor originated.
Electrical stimulation in the nose induces sense of smell in human subjects
November 2018 | Science News
Physicians have, for the first time, induced a sense of smell in humans by using electrodes in the nose to stimulate nerves in the olfactory bulb, a structure in the brain where smell information from the nose is processed and sent to deeper regions of brain. Proof-of-concept research may accelerate development of smell restoration technology.
Researcher Claims to Have Genetically Engineered Human Babies
November 2018 | Science News
Researcher He Jiankui of Shenzhen, China, has astounded the scientific community by announcing that he has performed a gene-editing experiment on human embryos, and one of those embryos has resulted in the birth of twin girls earlier this month.
