An impressive new study from a team of Australian researchers has identified the novel mechanism behind immune exhaustion. The findings point to a treatment method that could improve the success of cancer immunotherapy and help patients beat back sever… Continue reading Understanding “marathon” cells key to waking up exhausted immune system
Dotted with thousands of giant stone vessels, the Plain of Jars in Laos is one of the most intriguing archeological sites in Southeast Asia. Now, a new study has uncovered how old the jars are, and it turns out they’ve been there much longer than previ… Continue reading Fresh analysis reveals Laos’ ancient Plain of Jars predates the Iron Age
Researchers in Australia are claiming an important breakthrough in glaucoma research, demonstrating how the degenerative condition can be treated using an innovative form of gene therapy. The technique was shown to be effective at repairing and protect… Continue reading Gene therapy mends optic nerves in promising advance for treating glaucoma
Human trials for a first-of-a-kind device designed to treat the brain via electrical stimulation have brought some very promising results. Called Stentrode, the implant has the potential to treat a wide range of neurological conditions, but in these ve… Continue reading Brain implant allows mind control of computers in first human trials
Perovskites have emerged as an exciting material when it comes to next-generation solar cells, but they aren’t without their problems. While they promise great leaps in efficiency, keeping all elements of the cell stable and in working order has proven… Continue reading Hits of high-intensity light push perovskite solar cells into new terrain
A new study claims that in the next 80 years, the global land area exposed to coastal flooding as a result of climate change is set to increase by roughly 50 percent, threatening tens of millions of people, and up to 20 percent of global GPD. The autho… Continue reading Coastal flooding could put 20 percent of global GDP at peril
The ways in which the communities of bacteria living within our bodies influence our overall well-being are becoming better understood all the time, and with that better understanding comes potential new ways to intervene for better health outcomes. Adding to this is a new discovery by researchers in Melbourne, who have described how a healthy microbiome can boost the activity of killer immune cells that are vital to fighting off infections and cancer.
