Credit: Mohammed Haneefa Nizamudeen/Getty Images The leading cause of cancer worldwide could be better detected and treated with special algorithms built into the electronic health record (EHR), according to new research out in NEJM Catalyst today.  Lung cancer screening is relatively new, as it was first recommended in 2013. Doctors use low-dose computerized tomography (LDCT) to test patients who have no symptoms but are long-term smokers. But only about 16 percent of those who are eligible in the U.S. currently get screened. This new study details how the University of Rochester Medicine primary care network reached a nearly 72 percent…

NuAxon Bioscience spotlights the new formulation science behind BacoZen, its branded ingredient — a blend of bacopa and ashwagandha extracts — for sleep, stress, and mood support, which it will feature at SupplySide Global (October 29–30) in Las Vegas, Nevada, US. According to the company, it is the only nutraceutical supplier using CO2 extraction to develop hundreds of standardized, full-spectrum botanical ingredients. The processing method increases the purity and bioavailability of finished extracts.“Many botanical suppliers claim to offer science-backed, full-spectrum extracts but are unwilling to share their methods of standardization or manufacturing processes or offer third-party verification,” says Uday Gosalia, president…

Adding a small splash of water to scrambled eggs creates steam that makes them lighter, fluffier and more tender.Unlike milk or cream, water doesn’t dull the eggs’ flavor, letting their natural taste and golden color shine through.Use about 1 to 2 teaspoons of water per egg and cook gently over medium heat for soft, silky curds. Scrambled eggs are one of those deceptively simple dishes that inspire strong opinions. Do you whisk them gently or vigorously? Cook them low and slow or fast and hot? Every cook seems to have a technique they swear by. For me, the best trick…

Scientists use AI to process and analyze scientific data in the laboratory. Artificial Intelligence and science technology. [Vithun Khamsong/ Getty Images] In an age defined by the convergence of life sciences, artificial intelligence (AI), and information technology (IT), nations are rethinking how research ecosystems are structured. Serbia’s BIO4 Campus, now under development in Belgrade, represents one of Europe’s most ambitious attempts to integrate these fields into a single, collaborative innovation hub. As described in Science for a Better Tomorrow by Jelena Begović, PhD, Minister of Science, Technological Development, and Innovation of Serbia, BIO4 is designed to embody the future of…

Phylogenetic tree constructionAll available A(H5) HA nucleotide sequences and accompanying metadata were downloaded from the GISAID Data Science Initiative60 and the Bacterial and Viral Bioinformatics Resource Center (BV-BRC)61 databases on 5 May 2023. The HA sequences of three antigens present in-house (A/Vietnam/3218/2004, A/duck/Hong-Kong/1091/2011 and A/eurasian-wigeon/Netherlands/EMC-3/2014), which were not yet available through the above mentioned databases at the time, were added to the dataset manually and deposited to GISAID in hindsight. The dataset was then preprocessed using Pépinière (a Python (v.3.10.14) jupyter notebook available at GitHub (https://github.com/epiv-lab/pepiniere) and Zenodo62). This included deduplication of sequences present in both datasets based on identical…
