AI Technology Detects Cancerous Brain Tumours in 10 Seconds During Surgery
Researchers have developed FastGlioma, an AI-based model that can identify residual brain tumour tissue in just 10 seconds during surgery. The technology, which outperformed conventional methods, offers significant improvements in neurosurgery for diffuse gliomas and other cancers. It could revolutionise surgical practices by enabling faster, more ...

Scientists Created Solar-Powered Animal Cells by Combining Choloplasts From Algae and Hamster Cells
A team from the University of Tokyo has successfully created hybrid animal cells that can generate energy from sunlight. By integrating chloroplasts from the red algae Cyanidioschyzon merolae into Chinese hamster cells, the researchers demonstrated that these cells can sustain photosynthesis for up to 48 hours. This breakthrough could have signific...

Brain Ageing in Monkeys Delays After Being Given Diabetes Medicine Metformin, Study Shows
A recent study has highlighted the potential of metformin, a commonly used diabetes medication, in slowing the ageing process in monkeys. Published in Cell on 12 September, the research shows that daily doses of metformin can preserve cognitive function and delay the ageing effects on various tissues, particularly the brain. This study brings forwa...

Harvard and Google Created the Most Detailed Map of Brain Using AI
In a landmark achievement, Harvard University and Google have developed the most detailed brain map ever created. This innovative project focused on a cubic millimeter of human cerebral cortex, a sample taken during an epilepsy surgery in 2014. Over a decade, biologists and machine-learning experts meticulously mapped approximately 57,000 cells and...

Nerve-Cooling Implant Could Provide Pain Relief on Demand, Eliminate Need for Addictive Painkillers
In a game-changing discovery in medical sciences, researchers have developed a flexible implant that can relieve pain in the patient. The implant can serve as an alternative to painkillers and can help obviate the need to use addictive medications. The implant is a biocompatible and water-soluble device that functions by wrapping around the nerves ...

Sugar-Coated Brain Implants: Scientists Find Sweet Solution to a Hard Problem
A team of researchers at Canada's McGill University has succeeded in developing a new method to create brain implants that are as soft as the brain tissue itself. The researchers used silicon and sugar to create delicate silicone implants, the softest brain implant to the day, as thin as sewing thread. Check out details here.
