Detecting p53 Aggregates for Cancer Diagnosis
p53 is a key tumour suppressor prone to aggregation, a process that impairs its function and may drive cancer progression. We developed an ultrasensitive blood-based assay to detect p53 aggregates, revealing their potential as a novel biomarker for glioblastoma.
Attitudes and Practice of Health Care Providers Toward Cancer Screening: A Cross‑sectional Multicenter Study, Saudi Arabia
As the occupational privilege of health care providers (HCPs) is expected to play a positive role in cancer screening practices, we assessed perceptions and personal attitudes of HCPs regarding their decision to screen for cancer.
Decoding Anxiety in Down Syndrome: A Genomic and AI-Powered Exploration
Our study publisehd on Molecular Psychiatry on May 24th 2025, harnesses deep learning and whole-genome sequencing to uncover unique genetic markers of anxiety in children with Down syndrome, offering insights into tailored diagnostics and interventions.
Bioresorbable, wireless dual stimulator for peripheral nerve regeneration
Peripheral nerve injuries often result in muscle atrophy and functional loss. We introduce a fully bioresorbable, wireless dual-site stimulator that promotes nerve regeneration through targeted electrical stimulation—and then safely disappears without removal.
