Medigen already sells an EV71 vaccine in Taiwan and Vietnam. Broadening it to cover more enterovirus strains is the harder problem — and Charles River supplies the machinery for proving it.
Being invited to screen was linked to 26% lower death risk. Actually doing the test was linked to 43%. A third of people never sent a sample back.
Confirming Alzheimer’s biology once meant a PET scan or a spinal tap. PrecivityAD2 does it from blood — and is cleared for symptomatic adults as young as 40.
Lymph-node-like immune structures sit in the skull’s bone marrow, connected to the brain, and respond to glioblastoma before distant lymph nodes notice it. A gel under the scalp made them work harder.
A rare hybrid T cell made up 4% of T cells in 70-somethings, 9.6% in centenarians and 17.6% in people past 110. The immune system may still be adapting at an age when everything else is declining.
Tay-Sachs and Sandhoff kill children and have no disease-modifying treatment. The science is not the bottleneck here — manufacturing a viral vector to regulatory standard is.
Antibodies against Staph, RSV and a common respirovirus predicted how well people responded to COVID vaccination — not because they fight COVID, but because they reveal the immune system’s general capacity.
Prior authorization is the paperwork gate between a doctor’s decision and a patient’s treatment. R1 is buying an AI company that claims a 96% first-pass approval rate on getting through it.
Engineered human bone and lung tissue connected by a circulating blood channel. Breast cancer cells introduced into the flow colonised the organs the way they do in patients — and prepared them first.
Antibodies work outside cells. The proteins that cause Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and Huntington’s do their damage inside them. Getting the electrical charge right turned out to be the key.
Antipsychotics treat hallucinations. They do nothing for the cognitive impairment affecting 80% of patients — which is what actually determines whether someone can work or live independently.
Patients with GSDIa survive by eating raw cornstarch around the clock, including through the night. The endpoint that won approval was how much less of it they needed.
