Researchers studying a Swedish aging cohort found no overall link between air pollution and telomere shortening, a key marker of biological aging. Intriguingly, dementia patients exposed to higher pollution showed longer telomeres, though results were statistically non-significant.
A new study from Finland shows that low labor market participation for non-retirement related reasons may be an early indicator of dementia already years before the first evident symptoms occur. The study also identified other social markers that may be indicative of dementia up to ten years before a diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease, frontotemporal dementia […]
Researchers at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities have successfully 3D printed lifelike human tissue structures that can be used for medical training for surgeons and doctors.
CAR T cells are patient-derived, genetically engineered immune cells. They are “living drugs” and constitute a milestone in modern medicine. Equipping T cells, a key cell type of the immune system, with a “chimeric antigen receptor” (CAR) enables them to specifically recognize and attack cancer cells.
PicoQuant GmbH announces its investment in FluoBrick Solutions GmbH, a newly founded Berlin-based start-up focused on giving life science researchers in academia and pharma diagnostics access to the power of single molecule techniques.
A recent study links exposure to radiation from medical imaging to a small-but-significant risk of blood cancers among children and adolescents.
A new case report was published in Volume 12 of Oncoscience on September 15, 2025, titled “When strokes reveal a hidden malignancy: An atypical case of metastatic colorectal cancer with extensive thromboembolism.”
A new study involving the German Center for Diabetes Research (DZD) provides strong evidence that sugary drinks affect not only metabolic but also mental health – especially in women. This effect is probably mediated by the sensitive microbiome of the intestine.
Greek yogurt supplementation post-training significantly reduces inflammation markers in young males, offering insights into effective recovery nutrition.
A study from the Medical University of South Carolina, published in the Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, reveals that shorter storage durations of donor human milk are linked to reduced gastrointestinal complicatoins in premature infants, including necrotizing enterocolitis.
