An international team of investigators has reported results from the first Phase III clinical trials of rocatinlimab, a novel treatment for moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (eczema).
Medical Xpress / X-ray imaging captures the brain's intricate connections
An international team of researchers led by the Francis Crick Institute, working with the Paul Scherrer Institute, has developed a new imaging protocol to capture mouse brain cell connections in precise detail. In work published ...
Medical Xpress / Possible therapeutic approach to treat diabetic nerve damage discovered
Nerve damage is one of the most common and burdensome complications of diabetes. Millions of patients worldwide suffer from pain, numbness, and restricted movement, largely because damaged nerve fibers do not regenerate sufficiently. ...
Tech Xplore / New polymer electrolyte design promises safer, longer-lasting solid-state lithium batteries
A research team affiliated with UNIST has demonstrated a simple yet effective method to extend the lifespan of all-solid-state batteries—by simply stretching film-shaped electrolytes to improve safety and performance.
Phys.org / Plants use engineering principles to push through hard soil
Across the globe, soil compaction is becoming an ever more serious challenge. Heavy vehicles and machinery in modern agriculture compress the soil to such an extent that crops struggle to grow. In many regions, the problem ...
Phys.org / Corral technique measures fragile quantum states in magnet-superconductor hybrids from afar
Hybrid materials made of magnets and superconductors give rise to fascinating quantum phenomena, which are so sensitive that it is crucial to measure them with minimal interference. Researchers at the University of Hamburg ...
Medical Xpress / Your daily orange juice could be helping your heart
Most of us think of orange juice as a simple breakfast habit, something you pour without much thought. Yet scientists are discovering that this everyday drink may be doing far more in the body than quenching thirst.
