Why disease timing may matter for two-target brain stimulation in Parkinson's tests
In a 90-day trial, pairing two brain targets did not beat standard care overall, but patients with fewer years of illness saw meaningful gains.

By tracking eight ordinary blood markers, an interpretable machine-learning model accurately predicts which children with flu will develop severe illness.

A clinical trial found that drinking daily over-the-counter probiotics did not calm swollen joints, shift gut microbes, or mend intestinal barrier leaks in psoriatic arthritis.

A computer model combining standard blood results with a physical stiffness scan accurately detects significant liver scarring when the cause of illness is still unknown.

A warming planet and falling human body temperatures are closing the heat gap that protects us from dangerous fungi. As a result, the multidrug-resistant fungus Candida auris has breached our thermal defences.

A computer model trained on brain electrical signals identified depression with over 94% accuracy on a benchmark dataset by learning the complex, curved shapes of neural rhythms.

Moving the endangered conifer Cathaya argyrophylla into a botanical garden changes the surrounding soil microbes, revealing a rise in genes tied to immune disruption.

Human stem cells grown in a clean recipe free of animal products divided much faster than usual while staying genetically stable and functional.

A study using resting EEG scans shows that loneliness dampens the brain's spontaneous salience network, altering electrical patterns that flicker for only fractions of a second.

A study in mice reveals that early contact with too much manganese triggers brain immune cells to destroy vital learning links, causing long-lasting memory problems in males.
