A new book dives into how the life sciences industry can make big strides. It's not just about the science. The book talks about how the right people, good processes, and solid systems can make or break drug and device development. The author, a seasoned entrepreneur, shares his journey of building
A recent study in Sweden tracked over two million women under 50 for more than a decade. It found that hormonal birth control is generally safe, but some types might slightly increase breast cancer risk. The risk is small and short-term, highest during use and fading after stopping. The study showe
Architecture is changing. It's not just about people anymore. Designers are now thinking about how to create spaces that work for all living things. This is a big shift from the old way of doing things, where humans were the only focus. Some studios are leading this change. They are asking importan
Archer, a company known for its work on air taxis, is making a significant shift. They are now focusing on supplying their electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) technology to others. This change is big news because it shows Archer is expanding beyond just building air taxis. The first compa
Scientists have made a big step forward in tracking monarch butterflies. They are now able to follow individual butterflies on their long journeys from places like Ontario to Mexico. This is possible thanks to tiny, solar-powered radio tags that weigh just 60 milligrams. These tags are attached to t
Autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, and lupus are tough to treat. Current treatments just calm down the immune system's attack on the body, but they don't fix the root cause. This means patients often face a lifetime of expensive medications, injections, or infusions w
People with dementia often move in unique ways. This makes it tricky to measure their movement accurately. Regular tests don't always work for them.
