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. Unlike vaccines that prevent cancer, this one is designed for patients alr
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
The popular series "Silo, " based on Hugh Howey's books, has been renewed for seasons 3 and 4. This means fans can look forward to the full story being told. The show, set in a deep underground silo due to a toxic world outside, follows engineer Juliette Nichols as she uncovers dark secrets. The ser
Did you know that a simple organic compound called 2, 5-dihydroxyterephthalic acid (H4dhta) can be used to create super conductive materials? Scientists have been using H4dhta to build metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for a while now. But there's something special about the coordination polymers (CPs
Scientists have been diving into the connection between religion and the brain, and they're finding some interesting links. It turns out that spiritual experiences might depend on how different parts of the brain talk to each other. Key players in this brain network are the default mode network (DMN
In the fast-paced world of healthcare, digital technology and big data are driving major changes. One such change is happening at the University of Southern California's Alfred E. Mann School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences (USC Mann). This forward-thinking school is updating its curriculum
Imagine delving into the ancient past through the icy lens of permafrost. In the Arctic regions of East Siberia, particularly the lower Yana River area, scientists have uncovered a wealth of information hidden within Ice Complex deposits. These deposits, formed during the Late Pleistocene, contain b
Ever wondered how your foot's arch affects the way you walk? Scientists explored this by looking at what happens when the plantar fascia, a tough tissue in the foot, gets stiffer or softer. They created a virtual foot model based on real foot data and observed changes in stress, angles, and arch hei
Ever imagined using something as tiny as a grain of sand to clean our water? Scientists have found a fascinating solution with D301 beads. These tiny beads were tested with a common water pollutant called humic acid. Using advanced tools like 3D fluorescence spectroscopy, researchers discovered that
The United States and China have decided to play nice in the science and tech sandbox for another five years. They've refreshed a 40-year-old agreement, but this time with some new rules. The pact, which was almost left in the past, now has more focus on basic research and keeps a closer eye on safe
