Scientists have successfully tested an immunotherapeutic treatment in naturally infected dogs, significantly reducing parasite loads and halting cardiac damage. By modulating the immune response to attack the parasite without destroying heart tissue, this approach offers renewed hope for managing a neglected tropical killer.
A preclinical study reveals that ibogaine can reopen critical periods of brain adaptability in adult mice by dissolving the molecular 'brakes' that usually lock neural circuits in place. This suggests the drug's therapeutic power lies in restoring a juvenile-like state of malleability.
Researchers have developed a generalizable strategy to synthesize complex, multi-element nanostructures using spatially confined nanoreactors. By controlling chemistry at the pixel level, they successfully created high-entropy materials with up to six distinct components.
Researchers have developed LightGen, an all-optical chip capable of high-resolution image generation. The study reports speed and energy efficiency gains of over 100 times compared to traditional electronic chips.
Researchers have overcome stability bottlenecks in carbon utilisation by engineering lattice strain at the atomic level. This approach achieved over 95% efficiency in converting CO2 to formate, offering a scalable blueprint for green chemistry.
