Cancer Vaccines Enter Massive Clinical Push at NIH
The National Institutes of Health and private researchers are preparing a clinical push to accelerate cancer vaccines that train the immune system against tumors.
Kagan and Soai Win Nobel Prize in Chemistry for Mirror Molecules
The 2026 Nobel Prize in Chemistry has been awarded to Henri B. Kagan and Kenso Soai for their breakthrough discoveries in asymmetric organic synthesis and mirror-image molecules.
Why Zombie Cells Accumulate and Linger in Old Organs
Researchers found that declining chaperone-mediated autophagy allows senescent zombie cells to evade immune clearance by macrophages as bodies grow older.
Can Tumor Markers for Breast Cancer Predict Chemotherapy Need?
Secondary analyses from the CompassHER2-pCR trial reveal how tumor markers identify HER2-positive breast cancer patients who respond to less chemotherapy.
Google DeepMind Watermarks AI Proteins with SynthID Bio
Google DeepMind has introduced SynthID Bio, a watermarking method that embeds imperceptible signatures into AI-designed protein sequences and predicted 3D structures without degrading their biological function.
How Harvard Nobel Laureates Advanced Modern Science
Harvard Nobel laureates have shaped pivotal advancements across chemistry, medicine, economics, physics, and international peace since the inception of the awards in 1901.
How Human Tau Strains Drive Prion-Like Transmission in Mice
Researchers at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology observed prion-like transmission of human tau strains in wild-type mice, showing that distinct tau folds self-propagate through templated seeding while matching disease-specific pathology.
Earwigs Endure Parasitic Worm Manipulation to Enter Water
Researchers reveal how parasitic worm manipulation alters gene expression in European earwigs, explaining why infected insects abandon dry land for water.
Pumpkin Enzyme Weakens Peanut Allergens in Wroclaw Study
Researchers in Wroclaw demonstrated that an extracellular serine protease from figleaf gourd reduces the immunoreactivity of peanut allergens in laboratory trials. Although key epitopes undergo structural modification, surviving peptide fragments continue binding IgE antibodies, indicating that hypoallergenic food products require further development.
How Spatiotemporal Drug Delivery Directs Natural Killer Cells
Bioengineered spatiotemporal drug delivery scaffolds anchor natural killer cells at surgical margins, dismantling localized immunosuppression to prevent tumor recurrence.
