(Natural News) The Department of Justice has indicted two Chinese nationals over their role in what the agency has called a “decade-long cyber espionage campaign” that targeted defense contractors, COVID researchers and hundreds of other companies in more than 11 countries, including the U.S. “The defendants stole hundreds of millions of dollars’ worth of trade secrets, […]

(Natural News) Stem cell therapy, also known as regenerative medicine, is a type of treatment that harnesses the power of stem cells to promote the repair of diseased, dysfunctional or damaged tissue. Stem cells, which serve as the body’s raw materials, are the earliest form of all cells in the human body. Prior to their maturation […]

(Natural News) In the fight against cancer, it seems that scientists are now looking toward science fiction for inspiration. A group of scientists at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences developed a method that uses a laser to scan for and zap cancer cells in the blood. To test for cancer spread, patients usually have to undergo blood […]

(Natural News) The next step in diabetes treatment could be sound, according to researchers from The George Washington University. In their study, they identified ultrasound waves as a potential tool for treating this chronic disease. The team presented their findings at a conference hosted by the Acoustical Society of America in Kentucky. A non-invasive way to treat […]

(Natural News) Researchers celebrated their recent completion of a radar system that keeps track of the vital signs of a patient without the need to attach cumbersome wires to his body. However, the side effects of the radar waves on human health remain unknown. The new vital signs monitoring device is smaller than a typical […]

(Natural News) Can light restore vision to blind people and help treat paralysis in patients with Parkinson’s disease? German researchers have recently examined the possibility of stimulating light-sensitive proteins to achieve therapeutic effects on various health conditions. Optogenetics is a technique that manages processes in the brain through light-based stimulation. It achieves its effects through […]

(Natural News) There may be a new alternative option for treating Alzheimer’s disease or dementia without resorting to toxic pharmaceutical drugs. A new approach uses magnets to stimulate the brain’s working memory. Researchers at Duke University have recently debuted an experimental therapy called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) which applies a high-frequency magnetic pulse to the left […]

(Natural News) Additive manufacturing systems have come one step closer to printing out whole, working organs for emergency medical transplants. Researchers reported 3D printing a complete system of blood vessels found on a major organ. Every day, around 20 patients who desperately need an organ transplant die before ever getting one. There are not enough […]

(Natural News) The trail of slime left by slugs in the garden might eventually help patch up wounds. Researchers found that the “mucus” produced by a prevalent species of European slug possessed potential as a natural glue to close wounds, prevent infection, and reduce the risk of scars in humans. The slug species in question […]

(Natural News) When it comes to cancer, early detection can often mean the difference between life and death. One of the most promising developments in cancer detection can be found in nanotechnology, and gold nanoparticles in particular could prove to be a life-saving tool. Nanoparticles are already used in certain types of medical screenings and […]
