A research group from the United States has made an exciting discovery in the fight against drug-resistant bacteria. Using artificial intelligence (AI), they found a new type of antibiotic capable of fighting a dangerous superbug. This finding could have a significant impact on the development of personalized antibiotics to treat other resistant pathogens. The study, published [...]
A research group at the Belgian University of KU Leuven has succeeded in manufacturing a new type of human embryonic cell from stem cells in the laboratory that closely resembles the natural cells of human embryos. This advance, published in the journal Cell Stem Cell, represents a specific study model of what happens just after [...]

A team of engineers at MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) have developed a paper-thin speaker made from a flexible ultra-thin-film device with the potential to turn any rigid surface into a high-quality, low-power active sound source. The research, published in the IEEE Transactions of Industrial Electronics, shows that the manufacturing technique is relatively simple and [...]
A research team from the Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego (USA) has discovered for the first time the enzymatic process that activates the molecule salinosporamide A (also called Marizomb), from a marine microorganism, which is currently in phase III clinical trials for the treatment of brain cancer. The study, published in Nature Chemical [...]
Postdoctoral researcher Diego Balboa from the Center for Genomic Regulation (CRG), in collaboration with a research team from the University of Helsinki, has carried out a study showing that these pancreatic beta cells created from stem cells are capable of controlling glucose metabolism efficiently. This is due to its high ability to mimic the structure [...]
A research group from Harvard University (USA), in collaboration with teams from Emory University, has designed and built the first fully autonomous biohybrid fish made from human heart stem cells. This research, published in the journal Science, is a very important step in the scientific understanding of the biophysical principles that make the heart work. [...]

A scientific group from the University of Cambridge has developed a semi-automated insulin release system, known as an ‘artificial pancreas’, which substantially improves glycemic control in children between 1 and 7 years of age with type 1 diabetes without increasing hypoglycemia. The research, published in the New England Journal of Medicine, is the first to [...]
