New fungal discovery could help defeat drug-resistant superbugs

Researchers at the University of Sheffield have discovered that a fungus deadly to people with weakened immune systems can disable a critical defence used by neutrophils, the body's front-line infection-fighting white blood cells. An estimated 40 to 60 per cent of healthy people carry Candida albicans harmlessly as part of the body's normal microbial community. But in people with weakened immune systems, it can enter the bloodstream and trigger invasive candidiasis, a condition with mortality rates approaching 50 per cent. The research conducted using zebrafish models and human immune cells showed that restoring this suppressed immune response dramatically improved survival from infection, particularly when combined with existing antifungal drugs. The findings, from scientists at Sheff...

From uncertainty to optimism: AI is reshaping the battle against cancer

For years, the debate around AI has swung between excitement and anxiety, but researchers are now putting this technology to work on humanity's toughest challenge the mysteries of cancer. At the centre of one such effort is Debarka Sengupta, associate dean of Innovation, Research and Development, Indraprastha Institute of Information Technology Delhi (IIIT-Delhi), who is using AI and genomics to detect cancer earlier, understand how tumours behave and help doctors choose treatments tailored to individual patients. Rather than viewing cancer as a single disease or a mutation in one gene, Sengupta's laboratory studies it as a complex biological system by combining molecular biology, genomics, single-cell analysis, microfluidics and AI. "The aim is to detect weak cancer signals that are of...

Meta Just Patched a Major Privacy Flaw With Its Smart Glasses

It's not clear yet whether smart glasses will be the next smartphone, though perhaps they don't have to be. While there may not come a time when everyone is walking around with high-tech glasses on their faces, these things are undeniably popular. Seeing as Meta sold seven million of its smart glasses in 2025 alone, you certainly can't discount the category as niche. The next time you head out somewhere particularly busy, there's a chance you'll walk past someone wearing a pair.While the tech has its advantages, it also has its criticisms, especially when it comes to user privacy. We're all used to the ubiquity of smartphone cameras while out in public, but they're far from discreet: If someone is taking a photo or recording a video on their iPhone, it's often pretty obvious. Meta smart gl...

How Mumbai doctors saved elderly woman from life-threatening food pipe rupture

Mumbai doctors have successfully treated a 70-year-old woman suffering from a rare and life-threatening rupture of the food pipe caused by forceful vomiting. The 70-year-old patient arrived at the hospital with severe chest pain, difficulty swallowing, and breathing problems. Detailed evaluation revealed a big hole in her lower esophagus (food pipe), allowing food and infected material to leak into the chest cavity. Considering the complexity of the condition and the associated infection, the medical team opted for an advanced non-surgical approach involving endoscopic vacuum therapy followed by autologous fat grafting. After multiple treatment sessions and weeks of dedicated care, the defect closed successfully, allowing the patient to recover without undergoing major surgery. Manjula ...

Strand Life Sciences secures AI patent for blood test to detect cancer early

In a significant step towards advancing early cancer detection in India, Strand Life Sciences, a subsidiary of Reliance Industries Limited, has been granted an Indian patent for an integrated platform that uses artificial intelligence (AI) and cell-free DNA (cfDNA) analysis to detect cancer from a simple blood sample. The patented technology combines high-quality genome sequencing, stringent quality control, methylation and fragmentomic analysis, and machine learning algorithms to identify early cancer-related changes in DNA circulating in the bloodstream. It can also predict the tissue of origin of the cancer, enabling doctors to investigate the affected organ at an earlier stage. A Blood Test That Could Change Cancer Screening One of the key innovations covered by the patent is its ab...
