Cancer is a scary thing, and it's the leading cause of death worldwide. Even though we've made great strides in treating it, people still look down on it in many places. Surprisingly, there isn't much research about how women in Nepal view cancer. This study wanted to find out if they had negative f
Russia plans to give away a custom cancer vaccine starting in early 2025. Andrey Kaprin, the head of Russia’s Radiology Medical Research Center, said their vaccine targets cancer by stopping tumors from growing and spreading.

For quite some time, athletes have been curious about the ketogenic diet, a low-carb, high-fat plan. They believe it can jack up their performance and cut their recovery time after workouts. But what's the real deal, especially for those pushing their limits in ultra-endurance sports? Scientists are
Imagine trying to find a tiny needle in a haystack. That's what it's like to detect microRNA-21 (miRNA-21), a key player in cancer. These tiny molecules are hard to spot due to their low numbers. Scientists have come up with a clever way to make this detection easier. They've created a platform usin
Imagine trying to measure something tiny, like the ions in your body, but your tools aren't good enough. That's what scientists have been dealing with. They need better ways to track ions inside living things, and current tools just don't cut it. They're too big, too stiff, and can't monitor multipl
Scientists are working on a new way to see and treat cancer. They are targeting proteins called BRD3 and BRD4, which are found in many types of cancer cells. Right now, doctors mainly use antibodies to spot these proteins. But these antibodies can be pricey and hard to use. Plus, they can't help tre

In a surprising turn of events, Nigeria's anti-corruption agency made a massive bust. They arrested 792 people in Lagos, Nigeria's business hub. These suspects were running a high-tech scam from a posh building called Big Leaf. The scam involved romancing people online, often through apps like Whats
You might think that stopping the use of antibiotics in farming would make the soil healthier. But a surprising study found that even without antibiotics, some harmful traits, called antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), can still stick around in the soil. These ARGs can make bacteria tougher to fight
