Astronaut shares Independence Day wish for India from space

Immunotherapy research primarily focuses on better recognition of cancer cells by the body's own immune system. Researchers at Amsterdam UMC and Moffitt Cancer Center have taken a different approach.

Marking Rare Disease Day, Strand Life Sciences, a subsidiary of Reliance Industries and a leading genomics research company, has launched the StrandOmics Portal, an innovative digital platform designed to assist doctors in diagnosing rare diseases more efficiently.

A new study led by Professor Gemma Harvey from Queen Mary University of London has revealed how hundreds of species shape the landscapes we depend on, from termite mounds visible from space to beavers creating wetlands and hippos carving drainage systems.

Collagen, the body's most abundant protein, has long been considered a predictable structural component of tissues.

According to new research from the University of Surrey, climate change has an impact on Salmonella spread. This study builds on prior work by the researchers, which discovered that weather change is contributing to the spread of deadly diarrhoeal illnesses.

"Our results have no clear or direct application right now. It's basic research that lays the foundation for future technologies in quantum information and quantum computers. There's enormous potential for complete discoveries in many different research fields," said Guilherme B Xavier, a researcher in quantum communication at Linkoping University, Sweden.

A groundbreaking study has revealed the critical role of gut bacteria in regulating stress responses through interactions with the body's circadian rhythms.

Columbia researchers developed probiotic bacteria that train the immune system to eliminate cancer cells, paving the way for a new class of cancer vaccinations that take advantage of bacteria's innate tumour-targeting abilities. These microbial cancer vaccines can be tailored to each person's specific original tumour and metastases, perhaps preventing future recurrences.

Alzheimer's disease may cause brain damage in two stages, according to new research supported by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) that uses sophisticated brain mapping methods.
