Groundbreaking discoveries and inventions in the Life Sciences advancing Evidence Based Medicine
Researchers at the UCF College of Medicine’s Burnett School of Biomedical Sciences (BSBS) are using the CRISPR gene editing tool to gain insights into Parkinson’s disease, specifically to monitor the activity…
A blood sugar-monitoring smart insulin patch developed through the UNC-N.C. State Biomedical Engineering Program is now a step closer to coming to market following a major investment by the Chinese…
Statins are prescribed to patients to reduce levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) in the blood, although new research suggests they could also reduce breast cancer deaths by as much as 38%….
University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine researchers have identified two genes responsible for the congenital heart defect hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS). HLHS is a rare structural abnormality in the…
Scientists at the Monash University’ Biomedicine Discovery Institute have provided new insights into the cell signaling pathways used by the hepatitis C virus (HCV), and how the virus is able to…
An international team of researchers has used single cell analysis techniques to identify and characterize rogue cancer cells that survive chemotherapy. Tumors may be destroyed using chemotherapy, but rogue cancer…
Researchers at Columbia University Medical Center have successfully grown lung bud organoids in the lab that mimic the function of human lungs. The organoids can be used to create new…
The National Institutes of Health’s National Eye Institute (NEI) has launched a new competition that challenges biomedical scientists to generate miniature, 3D human retinas in the lab for use in…
The National Health Service (NHS) in the UK is using artificial intelligence to detect cancer in patients. The NHS has collaborated with Intel to create a digital repository containing many…
Since inner ear tissues are not biopsied, researchers find it next to impossible to obtain tissue samples. That hampers studies of disease models and the development of new therapies for…
