Intermittent fasting maintains long-term weight loss, regardless of meal timing, study sho
A team of scientists from the University of Granada (UGR), the Granada Institute for Biomedical Research (ibs.GRANADA), the Public University of Navarra and the Biomedical Research Networking Center (CIBER) has demonstrated that limiting food intake to an eight-hour window helps
Are lung cancer tumors hijacking the nervous system?
According to the Cleveland Clinic, a quarter of cancer deaths can be attributed to one source: cachexia. Cachexia is a syndrome that accompanies underlying chronic illness and causes unwanted muscle and fat loss, reducing quality of life and sometimes even limiting treatment opti
Natural regulator may slow several cancers by shutting down fibroblasts, study finds
An international research team co-led by the Institute of Biomedicine and Biotechnology of Cantabria (IBBTEC-CSIC-University of Cantabria) and CIC bioGUNE, member of BRTA, has identified a novel molecular mechanism that helps limit the progression of several types of cancer.
Training device expands access to high-performance diagnostic testing
The rise of automation and AI has raised fears about job loss, but smart tools can also train workers rather than replace them. Meanwhile, a chronic shortage of trained personnel limits the reach of health care in both developing and developed countries.
