Scientists from the Human Protein Atlas created a pan-disease blood atlas that maps thousands of proteins across 59 diseases and over 8,000 people. The study reveals distinct protein fingerprints for each condition.

Discover how engineers can exploit ice's ionic defects to dislodge frost from surfaces using electricity.

Michigan State University biologist Jason Gallant argues that it’s time science looked beyond traditional lab models like mice and flies. He highlights how studying diverse organisms, from electric eels to bacteria, could unlock new solutions.

Discover how PFAS exposure affect the fat metabolism genes of ducklings, which could threaten the birds’ survival and reproduction.

German researchers studying tuberculosis that spreads beyond the lungs identified unique immune patterns in patients’ blood. These patterns reveal how the body fights the infection and could lead to a simple blood test to replace biopsies.

The Human Protein Atlas v25 offers expanded protein maps across blood, tissues and cells, adding structural and disease-linked data. With over 10 million annotated images, it enhances understanding of how proteins drive health and disease.

Researchers found that those taking glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) medications were less than half as likely to die within five years compared to those who weren’t on the drugs.

Researchers showed that an mRNA influenza vaccine delivered with their new lipid nanoparticle could generate the same immune response as mRNA delivered by nanoparticles made with FDA-approved materials, but at around 1/100 the dose.

Researchers have developed an actionable roadmap to reduce the environmental impact of the large data centers needed to power the AI boom.

Single-cell RNA sequencing identified distinct immune profiles in extrapulmonary TB, linking interferon–IL-1 signaling to disease progression and paving the way for blood-based diagnostics.
