ISMAILIA — Egypt plans to channel investments of up to EGP 12 billion (approximately $240 million) into its Vaccine and Biotechnology City by 2030 as Cairo seeks to strengthen pharmaceutical self-sufficiency, reduce reliance on imported vaccines and position itself as a regional manufacturing hub serving African and Middle Eastern markets. The project forms part of a broader strategy […]

Researchers are replacing rigid silicon-based AI hardware with stretchable, neuromorphic electronics that mimic how the brain processes information, opening new possibilities for long-term human-machine integration. Modern artificial intelligence can outperform humans in tasks ranging from image recognition to medical data analysis, but there is one environment where today’s hardware still…

A newly developed bacterial cellulose manufacturing technique could lead to strong, multifunctional materials capable of replacing plastics. What if the next generation of high-performance materials did not come from a factory filled with petroleum-based plastics, but from living bacteria? Scientists at Rice University and the University of Houston have developed a new way to turn [...]

A new study suggests that certain genetic diseases may be treatable with carefully matched vitamins, including a deadly childhood disorder that responded strikingly to vitamin B3. Scientists at Gladstone Institutes have taken an unusual route in the search for treatments for deadly genetic diseases. Rather than choosing a disease first and then looking for a [...]

Researchers have successfully regenerated skeletal and connective tissue, although the new tissue was not perfectly formed. The result demonstrates a critical step forward in limb regeneration. For centuries, scientists have viewed the inability to regrow lost body parts as a major biological limit for humans and other mammals. Salamanders and some other animals can regenerate [...]

An improved stem cell method produces functional insulin cells that reverse diabetes in mice. Scientists at Karolinska Institutet and KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Sweden have created a more reliable way to generate insulin-producing cells from human stem cells. Their findings, published in Stem Cell Reports, show that these lab-grown cells can regulate blood [...]
A new injection developed by researchers and an Australian biotechnology company may have a life-changing impact on an estimated nine out of 10 dogs that suffer from serious respiratory issues directly tied to their breed. It has the potential to allow these flat-faced breeds to live happier and longer lives, in a far less invasive way than existing methods.

A novel method for directing mitochondria to specific cells could reshape how scientists approach diseases driven by cellular dysfunction. Scientists have unveiled a new way to deliver one of the cell’s most vital components exactly where it is needed. Led by Botond Roska at the Institute of Molecular and Clinical Ophthalmology Basel (IOB), the team [...]

MethylScan is a low-cost blood test that detects cancers and organ diseases by analyzing DNA methylation, improving early diagnosis, and identifying disease origin. UCLA researchers have created a simple, low-cost blood test that may be able to detect multiple cancers, liver diseases, and organ abnormalities at the same time by analyzing DNA fragments circulating in [...]

Professor Susie Dai has developed engineered algae that can remove and reuse harmful microplastics from wastewater. A researcher at the University of Missouri is developing a new approach to tackle one of the most persistent forms of pollution: microscopic plastic particles in water. Susie Dai of Mizzou has introduced a specially designed strain of algae [...]

Scientists are finding ways to merge biology with electronics, unlocking new possibilities for data storage and computing. DNA carries the genetic instructions for all living things, but it is also an extraordinarily dense way to store information. Just one gram can hold roughly 215 million gigabytes of data. If that level of storage could be [...]

Scientists are exploring DNA-based robots, tiny molecular machines that could one day navigate the body, deliver targeted therapies, and even build nanoscale technologies. DNA is best known as the molecule that carries genetic information, but scientists are also turning it into a building material for tiny robots. These experimental machines are designed to operate at [...]

A small metabolic tweak may unlock the full potential of RNA medicines. Lipid nanoparticles, or LNPs, are best known as the delivery system used in the COVID-19 mRNA vaccines given to billions of people worldwide. Scientists are now exploring their potential far beyond vaccines. Researchers hope to use these particles to carry therapeutic mRNA into [...]

Researchers have uncovered a new way to enhance the cancer-fighting ability of the immune system. All people naturally produce a growth factor known as IL-15 that plays an important role in protecting the body from cancer. This molecule helps stimulate the production and activity of immune cells that can quickly detect and destroy cancer cells [...]

Scientists used light to evolve proteins that can switch, sense, and even “compute” inside living cells. Evolution is one of biology’s most powerful design tools. It works by producing many variations of DNA, RNA, and proteins within cells and allowing natural selection to favor the organisms that function best. Humans have taken advantage of this [...]

Scientists have long studied unusually long-lived animals for clues to aging, but applying those insights has been difficult. Now, researchers report that inserting a single naked mole rat gene into mice extended lifespan and improved health. Researchers at the University of Rochester have taken a bold step in “exporting” longevity biology from one mammal to [...]

Researchers have developed a targeted approach to combat periodontitis without disrupting the natural balance of the oral microbiome. The innovation could reshape how gum disease is treated while preserving beneficial bacteria. The human mouth contains a remarkably complex community of more than 700 bacterial species, yet only a small fraction are responsible for periodontitis. These [...]

New approaches to obesity treatment are emerging as scientists target underexplored metabolic pathways with the help of artificial intelligence. Demand for better obesity medicines is rising quickly, with the market forecast to reach USD 60.53 billion by 2030. Even so, widely used treatments such as GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) still come with well-known tradeoffs. Patients [...]
National Institutes of Health (NIH) researchers have developed a digital replica of crucial eye cells, providing a new tool for studying how the cells organize themselves when they are healthy and affected by diseases. The platform opens a new door for therapeutic discovery for blinding diseases such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD), a leading cause of vision loss in people over 50. The…

Scientists uncover a new “recipe” that shows how exhausted T cells can be reprogrammed to regain their ability to attack tumors. When cancer or a stubborn infection keeps the immune system in a prolonged fight, some of its most important soldiers can lose steam. A new study from teams at the Salk Institute for Biological [...]

Scientists are exploring how DNA’s physical structure can store vast amounts of data and encode secure information. Since computers first began shaping modern society, scientists have faced two ongoing problems: finding ways to store rapidly growing amounts of digital information and ensuring that this data remains secure from unauthorized access.
