• MIT 연구진은 정밀한 조건 하에서 카오틱 레이저 광선이 고도로 집중된 '펜슬 빔' 형태로 자기 조직화될 수 있음을 발견했으며, 이를 통해 혈뇌장벽(blood-brain barrier)의 신속한 3D 영상화를 가능하게 했습니다.
• 이 새로운 방법은 기존 기술보다 25배 빠른 속도로 영상을 촬영하며, 약물이 뇌세포로 이동하는 과정을 실시간으로 추적합니다.
• 이러한 획기적인 성과는 세포 내 단백질 흡수를 고정밀로 관찰할 수 있게 하여 신경계 질환 치료를 가속화할 수 있습니다.
Oxford team’s technology picked up danger signs with 86% accuracy in study of 72,000 patients in EnglandOxford scientists have developed a simple AI tool that can predict the risk of heart failure five years before it develops.More than 60 million people worldwide have the condition in which the heart cannot pump blood around the body as well as it should. Spotting cases before they develop into heart failure would be a big step forward, experts say. Doctors could prepare better for and manage the condition at an earlier stage or even prevent it entirely. Continue reading...
Bread and biscuits made from Crispr-edited wheat showed substantially reduced acrylamide levels, even after toastingGene-edited wheat which can make bread less carcinogenic when toasted has been successfully developed by scientists.Researchers at Rothamsted Research in Harpenden, Hertfordshire, used Crispr genome editing which allows researchers to selectively edit the DNA of living organisms. This revolutionary technology was adapted for use in the laboratory from naturally occurring genome editing systems found in bacteria. Continue reading...
• Researchers at Binghamton University, State University of New York, along with colleagues at the University of Virginia, published a study in Science Advances mapping innovation landscapes to identify disruptive studies and patents that challenge existing scientific paradigms.
• The method, developed by Sadamori Kojaku and colleagues, helps pinpoint discoveries that reshape the course of science, such as the theory of evolution, atomic splitting, and antibiotic development.
• The robust measure of disruptiveness provides a systematic way to identify simultaneous breakthroughs across scientific fields and could accelerate recognition of transformative research.
