New 3D models of the colon can help detect disease more rapidly

“Our work shows that it is possible to re-create a fairly accurate three-dimensional (3D) model of the colon of some patients based on a single image taken by a capsule endoscopy camera – even if it’s a low-quality image,” says Pål Anders Floor, a researcher

Nanowires create elite warriors to enhance T cell therapy

Adoptive T-cell therapy has revolutionized medicine. A patient’s T-cells — a type of white blood cell that is part of the body’s immune system — are extracted and modified in a lab and then infused back into the body, to seek and destroy infection, or

Alarming study unveils how “forever chemicals” transfer from mothers to newborns

In an important scientific advancement, researchers have explored significant mechanisms and health implications of polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) exposure in infants, analyzing their transfer through the placenta and into breast milk. This study marks a significant step forward in our understanding of environmental pollutants and their
