In a groundbreaking study, scientists from the Weizmann Institute of Science have developed a novel approach to understanding molecular interactions, inspired by the intricate mechanics of cone snail toxins. This approach transcends traditional methodologies, harnessing the power of artificial intelligence to unveil the complex relationships between toxins and their biological targets. The findings, which will […]

The clownfish-anemone living arrangement is one of the most widely recognized examples of symbiosis. Researchers have made a breakthrough in understanding how anemonefish can live safely among sea anemones without being stung by their venomous tentacles, solving a century-long mystery. Scientists at the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST) and their international collaborators have […]

The dynamic addition and removal of long-chain fatty acids modulate protein function and localization. The α/β hydrolase domain–containing (ABHD) 17 enzymes remove acyl chains from membrane-localized proteins such as the oncoprotein NRas, but how the ABHD17 proteins are regulated is unknown. Here, we used cell-based studies and molecular dynamics simulations to show that ABHD17 activity […]

As a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences at Columbia and Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, Caroline Juang is currently investigating how climate affects wildfires in the western United States—prescient in the face of the recent, catastrophic Los Angeles fires. She uses satellite data, big datasets and statistical modeling to try and understand […]

As the medtech AI market surges toward $615 billion by 2034, companies must navigate complex licensing, regulatory, and intellectual property challenges. Understanding these key issues is essential to unlocking the full potential of AI-driven healthcare innovation. The global market value for medical technology utilizing artificial intelligence (AI) is projected to reach […]

Industrial biotech specialist BRAIN Biotech and PX Group have extended its collaboration in highly effective microbial gold recovery from e-waste. Back in 2017, BRAIN Biotech developed a container-based mobile pilot plant for the bioleaching of metals dubbed BioXtractor. An advanced version called BioXtractor V2 was financed by PX Group and is now jointly owned by […]

Global warming is producing a rapid loss of plant species — according to estimates, roughly 600 plant species have died out since 1750 — twice the number of animal species lost. But which species are hit hardest? And how does altered biodiversity actually affect interactions between plants? Experts from the Alfred Wegener Institute have tackled […]

A groundbreaking study by a research team at UCLA Health has revealed critical insights into the connection between brain rhythms and seizure activity in Alzheimer’s disease patients. This research has identified significant changes in brain activity patterns—specifically high-frequency oscillations (HFOs)—which could serve as crucial indicators of epileptic phenomena in individuals grappling with this neurodegenerative illness. […]
