Academic mobility, education and scientific research can become powerful tools for building collaborations that extend well beyond the lifespan of a single project. This is one of the key legacies […]
The machines from Genda Europe contain official plush toy prizes from partnered Japanese brands popular with kids and young adults such as One Piece and Dragon Ball
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration today announced a request for information (RFI) describing approaches the agency is considering for the design of early-phase clinical trials of ibogaine drug products and seeking public input on those approaches.

Vaping becomes “smoking” The first text, Senate Bill 9, sponsored by Republican Senator Gerald Allen, does not create a separate regime for e-cigarettes. It rewrites the definition of “smoking” in the 2003 Clean Indoor Air Act so that it now covers, alongside lit tobacco produ...
Scientists found that prolonged fasting triggers major changes throughout the body, but many of the most interesting effects only appeared after about three days without food. The results suggest fasting may influence health in ways that go beyond weight loss and could eventua...
A new nanoparticle therapy reduced lung tumors in mice while also targeting cachexia, the severe muscle wasting that can accompany cancer. By delivering follistatin mRNA directly to tumors, the approach could eventually offer a way to fight both the disease and one of its most...
Scientists have discovered a human gene with a remarkable double life: it appears to play an important role in brain cells while still retaining the ability to jump around the genome. Called BC200, the gene evolved millions of years ago from a mobile piece of DNA known as a tr...
Cancer immunotherapy can lose its punch when tumor-fighting T cells become exhausted, but researchers may have found a way to keep them going longer. Scientists at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center identified a signaling molecule called MEK that can push T cells to burn t...
Scientists have discovered that E-cadherin, a protein best known as the “glue” holding cells and tissues together, has a surprising second job: helping epithelial cells swallow nearby dead cells. Using live zebrafish and mouse embryos, researchers found that cells can dramatic...
Researchers found that just 20 minutes of comfortable walking can rapidly stimulate the gut. Within one to two minutes after exercise, bowel sounds became stronger, more frequent, and lasted longer, suggesting increased intestinal movement. The boost was brief, fading within a...
Barista Bar's commercial and development director Mark Stewart-Maunder recently spoke to Better Retailing
A UCLA study links faster brain aging to specific gut bacteria and chemical byproducts, with older-looking brains also associated with poorer memory, focus, and mood. The findings suggest that biological signs of brain aging may appear decades before obvious symptoms and could...
High-dose vitamin B3 is showing intriguing early promise as an addition to standard glioblastoma treatment, with 82% of patients in a small trial remaining progression-free after six months. Researchers believe niacin may help revive immune cells suppressed by the cancer, but ...
A vitamin D analog may help break down pancreatic cancer’s protective defenses, potentially making tumors more vulnerable to chemotherapy and immune attack. A small clinical trial found encouraging responses, especially in patients whose tumors had high levels of the vitamin D...
