Twenty-five years of Northwestern University research reveals that adults over 80 with exceptional memory possess unique brain structures, greater resistance to Alzheimer’s pathology, and enhanced cellular characteristics that challenge traditional assumptions about cognitive decline during normal ageing processes in humans.
Google DeepMind researchers have developed an asynchronous oversight system enabling AI to conduct diagnostic consultations whilst maintaining physician accountability. The guardrailed AMIE system demonstrated superior performance to nurse practitioners and primary care physicians in virtual clinical examinations whilst strictly deferring medical advice to supervising doctors.
Swedish drone emergency medical service provider Everdrone is significantly expanding its pioneering network across Region Västra Götaland, aiming to reach 25% of the population through 10 strategically located Skybases by 2026. The expansion follows promising clinical trial results showing drones can deliver automated external defibrillators (AEDs) before ambulance arrival in two-thirds of cases, with a […]
A pioneering five-year research programme to develop the foundational tools for synthesising human genomes has launched with £10mn funding from Wellcome. The ambitious Synthetic Human Genome project, led by Professor Jason Chin at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology, aims to unlock transformative biotechnology applications and accelerate targeted cell-based therapies.
Healthcare technology strategist Melinda Yormick explores how real-time data integration represents a critical breakthrough in hospital operational efficiency. Her analysis reveals how precision operations – enabled by automated workflow monitoring and live analytics – could transform fragmented healthcare systems into coordinated, responsive care environments, fundamentally improving patient outcomes and resource allocation across critical departments.
Researchers have assembled the most comprehensive genetic atlas of cannabis to date, revealing unprecedented molecular diversity that could revolutionise medicinal applications and unlock novel therapeutic compounds. The landmark study, published in Nature on 28 May 2025, analysed 193 cannabis genomes and identified surprising genetic variation that may hold the key to developing new cannabinoid-based treatments.
In a Genomic Psychiatry interview, Professor Barbara Franke reveals how her revolutionary interdisciplinary approach is transforming ADHD research. Her innovative methodology combines cutting-edge genomics, experimental models, and international collaboration to decode biological pathways from genetic variations to behavioural changes, offering unprecedented insights for personalised neurodevelopmental treatments.
Healthcare expenditure escalates globally at rates dramatically exceeding GDP growth, creating an unsustainable affordability crisis that demands urgent technological transformation and innovative financing solutions, according to Penny Pinnock from Siemens Financial Services, who examines new analysis of eight-year spending trends across international health systems.
As artificial intelligence becomes increasingly sophisticated in mimicking human interaction, psychologists warn that intimate relationships with AI companions present significant ethical challenges ranging from disruption of human bonds to potential manipulation and exploitation of vulnerable users.
A comprehensive evaluation of a green social prescribing programme in northern England has demonstrated that connecting people with nature-based activities can significantly improve mental health outcomes within just 12 weeks. The findings, published 16 April 2025 in Health & Social Care in the Community, highlight the potential for nature-based interventions to serve as effective therapeutic […]
