EPFL scientists have engineered virus-inspired DNA aptamers that bind infection targets with record selectivity. This innovation could change how we diagnose and treat infectious diseases.
What does ethical research look like in drug discovery today? In this interview, Charles River’s Executive Director of Global Animal Welfare shares how global standards, the 3Rs and her own path as a woman in STEM are shaping efforts to reduce animal use in science.
Researchers at the University of Oklahoma have found a way to improve drugs by adding just one carbon atom. This simple change could speed up drug discovery and lower costs.
Drug development has long been hindered by fragmented data and complex processes, but a new wave of AI is reshaping the landscape. By integrating genomic, clinical and molecular data, multimodal models are revealing hidden patterns and accelerating more precise advancements in medicine.
Nearly a billion people are affected by chronic organ scarring, yet treatments remain limited. Now, Duke-NUS researchers have compiled a scientific ‘handbook’ of immune cell insights that could fast-track breakthroughs in fibrosis therapy.
A new study suggests statins, cheap and widely used cholesterol drugs, could be repurposed to reduce the risk of death from sepsis. Researchers reported a 39 percent drop in 28-day mortality, highlighting their potential role in critical care.
While ADCs continue to attract attention in oncology, many developers remain focused on antibodies – overlooking the critical role of payload design. At Sygnature Discovery, Dr Joshua Greally is leading a shift in perspective, advocating for a payload-first approach through the company’s new platform, NewPath ADC. In this interview, he…
