Whether it is a drug-resistant strain of bacteria, or cancer cells that no longer react to the drugs intended to kill them, diverse mutations make cells resistant to chemicals, and ‘second generation’ approaches are needed. Now, a team of engineers may have a way to predict which mutations will occur in people, creating an easier […]

Continue Reading →An international team of scientists found that, like humans, female wild animals tend to live longer than males. Source: Scientists investigate why females live longer than males
Continue Reading →We humans are far from the first to exploit the benefits of CRISPR. Groundbreaking research has helped to redefine what CRISPR is. Researchers have discovered that primitive bacterial parasites weaponize CRISPR to engage in battle against one another. This discovery opens up the possibility to reprogram CRISPR to combat multi-drug resistant bacteria. Source: Research breakthrough: […]

Continue Reading →From the age of 50, there is a decline not just in physical activity but also in cognitive abilities since the two are correlated. But which of them influences the other? Researchers used a database of over 100,000 people aged 50-90 whose physical and cognitive abilities were measured every two years for 12 years. The […]

Continue Reading →A coronavirus envelope all-atom computer model is being developed. The coronavirus model builds on success of all-atom infuenza virus simulations. Molecular dynamics simulations for the coronavirus model tests ran on up to 4,000 nodes, or about 250,000 of Frontera’s processing cores. Full model can help researchers design new drugs, vaccines to combat the coronavirus. Source: […]
