Quantum computers promise to solve problems that would take even the fastest conventional supercomputers a vast amount of time, but the quantum information they store and process is extremely sensitive to even tiny disturbances from their surroundings. To keep these systems opera

A new collaborative study by Tel Aviv University and Sheba Medical Center marks a significant advance toward noninvasive blood testing, one of the most significant unmet needs in the market. The researchers have developed an artificial intelligence–based system capable of assessi

Researchers at the University of Arizona R. Ken Coit College of Pharmacy have developed a new strategy that helps the immune system recognize and attack lung cancer tumors more effectively. By packaging a chemotherapy drug and an RNA molecule in a tiny lipid carrier, the team boo

The cells lining skin capillaries are constantly sending each other messages—tiny pulses of calcium that help regulate blood flow, sense physical forces and keep vessel walls intact. Scientists have known about this signaling for decades. What they didn't know, until now, is that

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

A breakthrough in biomedical engineering could help pave the way for tiny implantable devices capable of diagnosing, monitoring and treating a wide range of health conditions. An international team of researchers led by the University of Glasgow has created a new type of ultra-sm

If you're a woman newly diagnosed with breast cancer, treatment can feel ... well, scary. Will chemotherapy work? Or will it become a cycle of educated guesswork: trying one drug combination, waiting, scanning? If the tumor doesn't respond, trying something else. In the meantime,

If you're anywhere near Michigan, you might want to skip the cilantro—or at least wash it really well. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, there's a parasite known as Cyclospora on the loose. It's tiny, it spreads quickly, and it's making hundreds of

New research has uncovered a hidden pathway that allows COVID-19 to infect the immune system and trigger damaging inflammation in the lungs. The study by La Trobe University and WEHI researchers found SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, can hide inside tiny fragments of d

Researchers identified a six-gene signature in microscopic colorectal cancer (CRC) liver metastases that may help predict recurrence after treatment. The findings suggest these tiny, often undetectable tumor deposits could serve as a tissue-based marker of residual cancer cells,

FMI researchers and their collaborators have shown how regenerating intestinal tissue turns small initial differences between cells into stable patterns. The findings reveal a general principle for how tissues rebuild order after injury, with possible implications for regenerativ

Though thousands of women in the United States step forward to donate their eggs each year, new research led by The University of Manchester in the U.K. published in Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology reveals only a tiny fraction make it through the rigorous selection process
