A Lab Mistake at Cambridge Leads to a Breakthrough That Could Revolutionize Drug Development
Cambridge scientists accidentally discovered a light-powered chemical reaction that lets researchers modify complex drug molecules in minutes instead of months — without toxic chemicals.
Scientists Discover Molecule That Stops Aggressive Breast Cancer in Its Tracks
Researchers at Oregon Health & Science University have developed SU212, a new molecule that blocks a key enzyme fueling triple-negative breast cancer — one of the deadliest forms of the disease — opening the door to treatments where few currently exist.
Slippery Nanopores Could Turn River Mouths Into Power Plants
EPFL researchers tripled the output of blue-energy systems with lipid-coated nanopores — a step toward tapping the electricity where rivers meet the sea.
World's First In-Utero Stem Cell Therapy for Spina Bifida Declared Safe in Landmark Trial
A UC Davis research team has successfully combined fetal surgery with stem cells to treat spina bifida before birth, with results published in The Lancet showing the pioneering approach is safe for both mother and baby.

A new ultrathin photodetector from Duke University captures light across the entire electromagnetic spectrum in just 125 picoseconds, opening doors to revolutionary cameras for medicine and agriculture.
CRISPR Breakthrough: Scientists Can Now Edit Genes Without Cutting DNA
A new technique from UNSW Sydney activates silenced genes without snipping DNA — making gene therapy safer for conditions like sickle cell disease.
Psilocybin Shows Powerful Results Against Treatment-Resistant Depression in Major Trials
Two large clinical trials show that a synthetic form of the compound found in magic mushrooms can rapidly relieve symptoms in patients who haven't responded to conventional antidepressants.
New AI System Can Detect Parkinson's Disease Up to 7 Years Before Symptoms Appear
Researchers have developed an AI tool that identifies biomarkers of Parkinson's disease in routine blood tests years before clinical symptoms emerge.
Scientists Achieve First Long-Distance Quantum Internet Connection Between Cities
Physicists have transmitted quantum-encrypted data between two cities 50 kilometers apart, marking a major milestone toward an unhackable internet.
