  • New knowledge on heritability paves the way for better treatment of chronic inflammatory bowel disease
    on March 2, 2026 at 9:10 pm

    Approximately 60,000 Danes live with chronic inflammatory bowel disease. Some experience limited discomfort, while others go through a debilitating disease course involving surgery and a stoma. Add to this the fear of leaving home due to urgent toilet needs.

  • Novel prosthetic design combines AI and 3D printing to improve fit
    on March 2, 2026 at 9:00 pm

    A new, fully customizable 3D printed socket design is set to transform the prosthetics industry. The reimagined limb socket interface combines highly personalized pressure mapping with AI software and a lighter infill, creating a highly customized prosthetic that’s more comfortable to wear, for much longer, say researchers at Simon Fraser University.

  • Mapping a fish’s developing heart opens new avenues for understanding several congenital heart diseases

    Just in time for Heart Month, the laboratory of University de Montréal medical professor and CHU Sainte-Justine researcher Rubén Marín‑Juez has unveiled the first comprehensive atlas of coronary vessel development in the zebrafish. Led by Ph.D. student Muhammad Abdul Rouf and the fruit of several years of meticulous analysis, this large‑scale work traces—with unprecedented single‑cell resolution—how vessels form and interact with the cardiac muscle.

  • Self-aware biosensors boost digital health monitoring
    on March 2, 2026 at 8:40 pm

    Smart biomedical devices are transforming modern health care, using skin-mounted sensors to capture in-depth health information directly from the body. As clinicians increasingly use biosensing devices to guide patient care, accurate and reliable signal acquisition is critical. A team at KAUST has developed a new system that can rapidly detect when the electrodes of devices such as heart monitors start to detach from the skin.

  • Hormones influence women’s exercise performance, but not as you’d expect, finds research
    on March 2, 2026 at 8:30 pm

    Female sex hormones estrogen and progesterone fluctuate monthly across the menstrual cycle, affecting moods and energy levels. New research from the University of Oregon finds that those fluctuations don’t change a woman’s ability to exercise hard, but they do influence how difficult that work feels. The paper is published in the Journal of Applied Physiology.
