David Sinclair’s Harvard lab uses K-Dense Beta to develop an ‘uncertainty-aware’ biological aging clock in a matter of weeks. Generative AI startup Biostate AI has entered the race to accelerate biomedical discovery with the launch of K-Dense Beta, a multi-agent AI system designed to compress research timelines from years to days. The company’s technology has already demonstrated its potential in aging and longevity research in a collaboration with renowned aging researcher Professor David Sinclair at Harvard Medical School. Rather than focus on specific aspects of research, K-Dense is designed to manage entire research cycles, leveraging a suite of specialized AI…

Lottie Jacksonlottiejacksonenquries@gmail.com“To fully understand our patients, we ideally need to have shared experience with them,” paediatric trainee Sophie Jackson said. “Having doctors of diverse backgrounds and abilities is crucial because it shows the next generation what is achievable despite adversity. An innate understanding of disability is also vital—it means that kind actions are intuitive rather than reactive.”My sister Sophie understood the power of diversity and what people can achieve more than most. During her early years growing up in Bristol she was diagnosed with a congenital muscle weakness. This brought logistical challenges and setbacks—ones that she navigated with aplomb. With…

Credit: wildpixel/Getty Images Metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) occurs when fat builds up in the liver. It is the most common chronic liver disease and the leading cause of liver-related morbidity and mortality in the world. MASLD occurs in association with one or more of five cardiometabolic risk factors, including obesity, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, high blood sugar, and low HDL cholesterol.  Globally, over one-third of the adult population has MASLD, and 7–14% of children and adolescents are affected. By 2040, the percentage of affected adults is expected to increase from 38% to 55% worldwide, as obesity…

American health officials are sounding the alarm about a previously obscure illness spread by blood-sucking insects called kissing bugs.In a report recently published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), scientists warned that Chagas disease — historically considered a nonissue in the United States — should now be regarded as endemic, or an ongoing hazard to public well-being.[1]“Although there’s no need to panic, our report is raising awareness about an illness that’s been here for a long time and may be more prevalent than suspected,” says one of the authors, Sarah Hamer, PhD, a veterinary ecologist specializing in wildlife…

RESEARCH BRIEFINGS 17 September 2025 Conventional 3D printers do not extract information from their environment. A ‘context-aware’ volumetric printer uses light-sheet imaging and visual processing to map objects or living cells embedded in printable materials. This enables rapid, automated fabrication of designs adapted to mapped elements, such as vasculature precisely reaching the bioprinted cells.

Well for starters, you’re probably still not meeting the daily fiber recommendation.

This recipe transforms green cabbage into a savory side.Cabbage provides vitamin K for healthy blood clotting and strong bones.To prevent the cabbage from falling apart during cooking, leave the root intact while cutting into wedges.
