While AI tools show promise in the lab, their real-world effectiveness may be […]
Dr. Greg House still outperforms ChatGPT in accurately diagnosing patients. ChatGPT’s fourth version has a low accuracy rate of just 17 percent when diagnosing pediatric medical cases. The study suggests ChatGPT could improve by being specifically and selectively trained on accurate and trustworthy medical literature and having more real-time access to medical data.
Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine have developed a groundbreaking technology to address the crucial issue of maintaining therapeutic gene levels within a safe range in gene therapy. Their method uses tiny substances approved by the FDA to control the genes, offering a promising solution to the problems associated with current methods for gene regulation. […]
Our bodies function like well-oiled machines, with tiny cells and even smaller organelles working together to keep everything running smoothly. Think of organelles as the organs of the cell: mitochondria act as the powerhouses, while lysosomes are the cleaners, ensuring that cells function properly. When these vital organelles get damaged, it can lead to aging, […]
In a breakthrough discovery, scientists have found a new method to destroy cancer cells by stimulating aminocyanine molecules with near-infrared light, causing them to vibrate and break apart the membranes of cancer cells. This new approach, referred to as molecular jackhammers, is a significant improvement over previously developed cancer-killing molecular machines, offering faster mechanical motion […]
In a breakthrough development, Moderna’s cancer vaccine, mRNA-4157 (V940), when combined with Keytruda, has shown a significant reduction in the risk of melanoma recurrence and death. The vaccine, which works by instructing the body to produce proteins found only on cancer cells, has demonstrated promising results in an ongoing phase 2b trial. The study showed […]
The antibiotic crisis may be seeing a glimmer of hope as MIT researchers harness the power of deep learning to unearth a groundbreaking class of compounds with the potential to combat drug-resistant bacteria. In a world plagued by the menacing threat of antibiotic resistance, the discovery of novel antibiotics is akin to finding a treasure […]
