New findings reveal that the body undergoes significant, systematic changes across multiple organs during prolonged periods of fasting. The results demonstrate evidence of health benefits beyond weight loss, but also show that any potentially health-altering changes appear to occur only after three days without food.

The BCL6 gene has been previously associated with immune system function. A new study has revealed that deleting the gene in utero or in adult mice resulted in 30 % loss in muscle mass.

In a significant breakthrough, the University of Liverpool's research team has identified a novel solid material capable of fast lithium ion conduction, potentially revolutionizing the field of rechargeable batteries. Detailed in the Science journal, this discovery introduces a solid-state lithium electrolyte made from abundant, non-toxic elements, offering a viable alternative to the liquid electrolytes used in today's lithium-ion batteries.

Scientists have found out that exposure to Agent Orange, a well-known toxin with wide-ranging health effects, damages brain tissue similar to those found in early-stage Alzheimer’s disease.

Scientists have developed a groundbreaking technique that captures the movement of electrons in liquid water in real-time, marking a significant advancement in experimental physics.

The new Crispr-based gene-editing tool – AsCas12f is an enzyme which is compact and has a strong potential to treat genetic disorders of patients.

An urgent call to action from Stanford and Sorbonne University researchers unveils a hidden ecological crisis: the invasion of North America by 70 alien earthworm species. Published in Nature Ecology & Evolution, their study reveals these invaders' widespread colonization, posing significant risks to native ecosystems.

Researchers have identified a novel mechanism by which the brain produces powerful lasting memories. With a focus on cocaine experience, the researchers demonstrate how the collective activity of many nerve cells distributed across the brain underlies the persistence of such memories.

Researchers have successfully modified DNA from four types of phages to kill a deadly pathogen. The process can also be used to produce more phage variants for further exploration.

Collaborative robots or more popularly known as ‘cobots’ are being used in laboratories all over the world. Compact, lightweight and its ability to automate tedious and repetitive tasks within the lab with extreme precision and accuracy make the cobots a ‘must have’ in any lab setting.
