Scientists are coming up with innovative techniques to use conventionally bad organisms to treat cancers. The aim is to engineer the genomes of bacteria in such a way to cure or treat cancers. If successful, the new way will have an enormous amount of resources in the form of bacteria on our skins, and the outcome is expected to eradicate cancer diseases.
AI has been gradually integrated in every field of science, particularly in the medical field where scientists are using it to know malfunctions before it even occurs. According to the latest research, medical professionals are testing AI to identify signs of Alzheimer’s through speech patterns that are not recognized by family members or even physicians.
Genetic mutations in the DNA of viruses still pose grave danger to human survival on our planet. Vaccines and other conventional ways of dealing with viruses cease to work against ever changing viruses with varying DNAs. British researchers are working to develop game-changing technology that can predict Pandemic threats posed by evolving respiratory viruses.
A healthier fast food? We have never heard of it in our lives but Luanne Hughes, a professor and nutritionist, has a unique way of looking at it. Professor Hughes disagrees with the conventional wisdom that fast foods are a set of foods that must be avoided, but rather a mindset. It’s the mindset that makes the food healthy or unhealthy.
A new scientific study has found that traffic is linked to increased risks of hypertension and heart diseases. Researchers accumulated data from over 240,000 participants aged 40-69-years-old and concluded that traffic noise coupled with air pollution can significantly increase risk of heart failures and other complications.

A research study has revealed a new cure for breast cancer. The study, funded by Breast Cancer Now, focused on a new strategy to deal with the disease that kills 42,000 women each year in the US. It uncovers the reasons for secondary breast cancer, cancer that spreads to other parts of the body and is incurable to this day.
A recent study has provided new insights into how proteins are arranged in mitochondria, which is considered the “powerhouse of cells” and participates in a range of metabolic and signaling functions within cells. Mitochondria is also responsible for the majority of cell activities apart from energy production.
Scientists have discovered an enzyme that can convert air into electrical energy. This breakthrough in the field of energy generation is crucial as our planet is in dire need of transition. Australian researchers have uncovered an interesting enzyme that captures hydrogen from the air to generate an electrical current.
