Brain tumours are one of the most formidable challenges in modern medicine: they are difficult to diagnose and expensive to treat, with the best predictor of outcome still being early diagnosis.
Scientists at Oak Ridge National Laboratory have developed a first-ever method of detecting ribonucleic acid, or RNA, inside plant cells using a technique that results in a visible fluorescent signal.
A team of researchers from the National University of Singapore (NUS) has developed a method to fabricate personalised gingival (gum) tissue grafts using an innovative combination of 3D bioprinting and artificial intelligence (AI).
The research team led by Dr. Hyunwoo Kim and Dr. Myungae Bae at the Korea Research Institute of Chemical Technology (KRICT) has developed the nano-probe-based quantitative stiffness measurement technique for a non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) simulate artificial organoid model while minimizing tissue damage.
The Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science (KRISS) has developed a safety evaluation technology for nanoparticles* used in UV-blocking cosmetics and has listed it as an international standard.

A novel cell therapy approach using cord blood-derived natural killer (NK) cells pre-complexed with AFM13, or acimtamig, a CD30/CD16A bispecific antibody, was safe and generated strong response rates for patients with refractory CD30-positive lymphomas, according to a new study from The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center.
The research team led by Dr. Youngdo Jeong of the Center for Advanced Biomolecular Recognition the Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST), in collaboration with Professor Seok-Ho Kang鈥檚 team from the Department of Urology, Korea University College of Medicine, has developed a urine-based diagnostic kit for bladder cancer that can be conveniently used at home.
Communicating complex science in a way that the public can understand is crucial. A new study from the University of Adelaide reveals that in scientific societies, women are shouldering the bulk of this work 鈥 often voluntarily 鈥 due to societal expectations and a sense of duty.
