With the aim of extending health longevity, scientists at the Center on the Biology of Aging are rapidly advancing their research on aging. The research has the potential to transform human health and life.

In a study that could transform agricultural pest management, researchers have uncovered the robust insect resistance mechanisms of Solanum habrochaites, a wild tomato species. By unraveling the genetic and metabolic intricacies of the phenylpropanoid biosynthesis pathway, the study opens new avenues for breeding cultivated tomatoes with enhanced pest resistance.

The European Commission has announced an EU Cardiovascular Health Plan with an aim to improve heart health across Europe. The European Society of Cardiology has welcomed this landmark initiative.

The National University of Singapore has recently inaugurated two new buildings – Sea Building and Sea Connect to advance the rapidly evolving fields in computing such as AI and data science. The University was able to establish these two structures thanks to the 50 million Singapore dollars it received from Sea Ltd.

A team at Leipzig University has unlocked a novel method to reverse the polarity of chemical compounds, solving a long-standing challenge in organic chemistry. By leveraging hydrazones and a cutting-edge catalyst, this breakthrough enables the precise synthesis of complex drugs, paving the way for safer and more sustainable pharmaceutical development.

Researchers have developed an AI-powered workflow that slashes the time and resources needed to discover high-performance materials for perovskite solar cells. With just 150 experiments, they achieved efficiency gains that would typically require hundreds of thousands of tests — opening new doors for sustainable energy innovation.

Backed by a 5 million dollar NSF grant, researchers aim to make solar panels recyclable, recovering critical materials like silicon and silver to build a sustainable, circular economy for U.S. solar energy.

In collaboration with colleagues from international partner institutions, researchers at the University of Cologne have investigated the asexual reproduction of oribatid mites using genome sequencing techniques. They show that the key to evolution without sex in oribatid mites may lie in the independent evolution of their two chromosome copies

Unlocking the secrets of individual cells, researchers are harnessing the power of self-supervised learning to analyze massive single-cell datasets. A study from TUM reveals how innovative machine learning methods can reshape our understanding of diseases like cancer and Covid.

Researchers have revealed that individuals who suffered from childhood epilepsy have a higher chance of getting memory disorders such as Alzheimer's later on in life due to the increased accumulation of brain amyloid.
