When we mention the term ‘economy’, often what springs to mind are industries such as technology, finance, and manufacturing. However, there’s a different kind of economy, less talked about, yet equally relevant and crucially important — the Purple Economy, also […]
Neural implants, also known as brain implants, have been the subject of extensive research in recent years, with the potential to revolutionise healthcare. These devices are designed to interact directly with the brain, allowing for the transmission of signals that […]
Precision medicine has emerged as a promising approach to providing personalised treatments for patients based on their genetic makeup, lifestyle, and environment. However, this approach requires vast amounts of data to be collected, analysed, and securely shared among healthcare providers […]
Our average life expectancy has increased from 45 years in the 1850s to nearly 80 years today as a result of medical science. Researchers believe that our life spans will continue to grow, but there is an eventual hard limit. […]
Death is a certainty that all living beings must face, but what if we could beat it? The advances in biotechnology and artificial intelligence, or AI, have raised the question of whether death can be conquered. This article explores the […]
With continuous advancements in medical technology, the science of longevity has seen incredible progress in the past few decades. According to the World Health Organization, the global average life expectancy increased from 64.2 years in 1990 to 72.6 years in […]
The field of longevity medicine is reinvigorating. Until recently, the initiative of slowing and reversing ageing was not considered ‘proper science’ or a reasonable use of public funds. Ageing was regarded as an unavoidable and permanent component of the human […]
The flow of genetic information is an essential process in biology that involves the transfer of genetic material from DNA to RNA to proteins. At the heart of this process is a molecule called messenger RNA (mRNA). Without mRNA, cells […]
There is very little that is efficient in drug discovery and development. Approximately 90% of medications that reach commercialisation fail. Each one costs more than $1 billion and takes ten years to develop. However, technical developments in data collection are […]
Two unlikely interweaving sciences, artificial intelligence and biomedicine, have changed our health and lives. These two sciences have now intertwined further, aiding scientists, medical professionals, and, ultimately, all of us to improve our ongoing health so we can live better […]
