Altering a cellular process can lead stem cells—cells from which other cells in the body develop—to die or regenerate, according to a new study led by Cedars-Sinai and the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF).

The findings, to be published today (January 13) in the peer-reviewed journal Cell Stem Cell, may assist in the development of new drugs that can manipulate this process to slow or stop cancer from growing and spreading, and enable regeneration in the context of other diseases.

Ophir Klein, MD, PhD, executive director of Cedars-Sinai Guerin Children’s and the senior author of the study, said the findings underscore the body’s need to produce just the right amount of new cells.

There are around 42,900 new bowel cancer cases in the UK every year Experts have hailed “remarkable” new research which shows that giving chemotherapy before surgery for early-stage bowel cancer cuts the chance of the disease coming back by 28%. The study, funded by Cancer Research UK, suggests at least 5,000 patients in the UK every year could benefit from a tweak to how they receive chemotherapy.

Innovative thinking has done away with problems that long dogged the electric devices. Scientists and environmentalists are excited about the possibilities.

Science fiction has made another bold leap forward to becoming reality with a breakthrough in thought-controlled implants.

During the past several decades, silicon has undeniably been the crown jewel of the semiconductor industry’s transformation. But with the plateauing of Moore’s Law, the increasing complexity of circuits, and the explosive growth of data-intensive applications, companies need even more innovative ways to compute, store, and move data faster. As a result, scale, speed, and power have become underlying forces to handle both advanced intelligence and computing needs.

Silicon photonics has already earned a stronghold for its impressive performance, power efficiency, and reliability compared to conventional electronic integrated circuits. Overall speed requirements have become fast enough, benefiting the technology’s strengths to transfer data efficiently over ever-shortening distances. Meanwhile, artificial intelligence (AI) is pushing computing to a point where electronic components need to communicate over distances to combine and integrate multiple XPUs (application-specific processing units).

Researchers in Drexel University’s College of Engineering have developed a thin film device, fabricated by spray coating, that can block electromagnetic radiation with the flip of a switch. The breakthrough, enabled by versatile two-dimensional materials called MXenes, could adjust the performance of electronic devices, strengthen wireless connections and secure mobile communications against intrusion.

The team, led by Yury Gogotsi, Ph.D., Distinguished University and Bach professor in Drexel’s College of Engineering, previously demonstrated that the two-dimensional layered MXene materials, discovered just over a decade ago, when combined with an electrolyte solution, can be turned into a potent active shield against electromagnetic waves.
