Scientists have engineered probiotic bacteria to act as tumor-seeking drug factories. In mice, these bacteria infiltrated tumors and produced a cancer-fighting drug right where it was needed. This targeted approach could make treatments more ...

"Forever chemicals" may be affecting kids in ways that last a lifetime. A new study links early PFAS exposure to lower bone density during the teen years, especially in girls. Researchers also found that when exposure happens may play a key role. ...

Aging men often lose the Y chromosome in a growing number of their cells--and it may be far more dangerous than once believed. This loss has been linked to heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer's, and shorter lifespans. Researchers suspect Y-less cells .. ...

The largest review of medicinal cannabis to date found it doesn't effectively treat anxiety, depression, or PTSD--despite millions using it for those reasons. Researchers warn it could even make mental health worse, raising risks like psychosis and . ...

A shingles vaccine might double as a powerful heart protector. In people already at high risk, it cut major cardiac events by 46% and deaths by an impressive 66% within a year. Scientists think preventing shingles may also stop clot-related ...

Scientists have found a way to make one of the most aggressive brain tumors vulnerable to the immune system. A single injection of a modified virus can invade glioblastoma, kill cancer cells, and summon immune fighters deep into the tumor. These ...

Many people believe closing their eyes sharpens hearing, but that is not always true. In noisy settings, participants struggled more to hear faint sounds with their eyes closed, while matching visuals made it easier. Researchers found that shutting . ...

A mysterious spike of platinum buried deep in Greenland's ice has long fueled theories of a catastrophic comet or asteroid strike 12,800 years ago--possibly triggering a sudden return to icy conditions known as the Younger Dryas. But new research ...

A nearby galaxy is behaving strangely--and now scientists know why. The Small Magellanic Cloud's stars move in chaotic patterns because it slammed into its larger neighbor millions of years ago. That collision disrupted its structure and even created ...

Researchers have created a cutting-edge catalyst that turns CO2 into methanol more efficiently than ever before. Instead of using clumps of metal atoms, they engineered a system where each single indium atom actively drives the reaction. This ...
