Aging reshapes the ovary long before reproductive function ends

Aging affects every organ in the body, yet we still know little about how the ovary changes over time. In a new study published in Nature Aging, Yale researchers created one of the most detailed maps of the aging ovary to date, examining how its cellular organization changes acro

Fish-inspired sensor tracks how human heart tissue responds to disease and treatment

Engineers have developed a new way to monitor how tiny lab-grown human heart tissues beat—by effectively "listening" to the ripples they create. The team has created a wireless, noninvasive sensing platform that can biomechanically measure how strongly the miniature heart tissues

Bacteria's 'mix-and-match' code could create new cancer-fighting drugs

A team of researchers at the University of Warwick and Monash University has solved a puzzle that has stumped drug developers for decades: how bacteria naturally create multiple versions of powerful cancer therapies. The breakthrough could accelerate the development of new treatm

AI turns mouse movements into language-like tokens, uncovering autism-related social behav

An artificial intelligence model capable of reading and interpreting animal behavior like language has been developed by researchers at KAIST. The team created an AI model that learns behavioral data in a manner similar to natural language and was able to independently identify s

Just one exposure to cocaine alters mouse brain cells for 2 weeks, research reveals

Researchers studying the impact of cocaine in mice have found that just one exposure to the drug can create changes in brain cells that persist for at least two weeks. Their findings were presented at the Federation of European Neuroscience Societies (FENS) Forum 2026.

Equine 'colleagues' can help protect therapists from burnout

"Including a big, warm creature in the therapy space creates a completely different dynamic than what can be achieved in an office," said Charlotte Fiskum, associate professor of psychology at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). She has led a study at NTNU

Study linking microgravity and space radiation to accelerated aging could yield therapies

What happens to the human body in space may help scientists create new anti-aging therapies. UCF's Michal Masternak and his team have identified molecular changes in the liver that happen when space travelers experience radiation and microgravity. These changes—that resemble acce

Weight‑loss jabs may create a new kind of yo‑yo dieting

For many people living with obesity, newer weight-loss medicines such as Wegovy and Mounjaro have been transformative. These drugs are often grouped under the label GLP-1 medicines because they mimic hormones released after eating, helping people feel fuller and less hungry. Moun
