Weight loss medications such as Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro have attracted widespread attention, making headlines across pop culture and scientific sectors alike. But it appears that hearing about these medications is a lot easier than actually getting them.
Yale researchers have built a 3D-bioprinted synthetic aorta that they have successfully implanted into rats. This technology could advance the treatment of cardiovascular diseases such as coronary artery disease or peripheral arterial disease by allowing scientists to engineer and replace blood vessels in humans.
Antimicrobial resistance, in which germs like bacteria and fungi no longer respond to medicines, is a rising global threat. When antibiotics and other drugs become ineffective, infections can become difficult or impossible to treat, leading to an increase in the spread and severity of disease.

Although autism can be diagnosed very early, it remains difficult to plot a child's developmental trajectory. Now a team of UdeM-affiliated researchers is working to remedy this, via AI and genomics.
鈥淕enerative Artificial Intelligence can be exploited to produce fraudulent scientific images,鈥� say the authors of an editorial published in the American Journal of Hematology (AJH), 鈥渆ither from scratch or by modifying existing visual materials to increase the realism of the final fabricated product.鈥�
Liquid biopsy was pioneered at Children鈥檚 Hospital Los Angeles as an effective test for retinoblastoma, the most common eye cancer in babies and toddlers. Traditional biopsy is invasive and risks spreading cancer outside the eye. The CHLA researchers found that using aqueous humor鈥攖he clear fluid of the eye鈥攃ould safely diagnose retinoblastoma and in 2023, launched the CAP/CLIA-validated LBSeq4Kids liquid biopsy clinical test.
