Tuberculosis (TB) remains one of the world's deadliest infectious diseases, claiming over a million lives each year. TB is the deadliest infectious disease known today, claiming more lives than COVID-19. TB is caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis. TB spreads through the air when infected people breathe, cough, sneeze,
Healthcare is changing faster than ever before. Thanks to breakthroughs in artificial intelligence (AI), genomics, and wearable technology, medicine is entering the era of smart health, where data, devices, and biology work together to create care tailored to the individual.
While volcanic eruptions are often viewed as abrupt, destructive disasters, their airborne deposits leave behind indelible signatures across the globe. For Earth scientists and palaeoclimatologists, tephra serves as an essential tool to decode past climate variability,
In Sci-fi visions of distant futures, some imagine sprawling intergalactic civilizations. Scaffolds built around stars harvesting their energy. Fusion reactors, cyborgs, superintelligent implants. But the future of artificial bones, though perhaps more mundane, could be a life saving science.
Natural polysaccharides like locust bean gum and chitosan are replacing lactose as safer, more effective carriers for inhaled medications and vaccines.
Modern healthcare is undergoing a silent revolution. Now to treat a disease in the healthcare system, there is no longer a need to wait for symptoms to appear.
Symptoms of anxiety disorders can interfere with daily life activities, such as performance at work, being in social gatherings, and relationships. In severe cases of anxiety, there might be a feeling of intense fear in common situations, a preference for isolation, or a refusal to leave their homes
Selective oxidation reactions are central to modern biochemistry. They enable the controlled introduction of oxygen into organic molecules, a key step in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals. However, many of the enzymatic systems traditionally used for these transformations are complex and difficult to implement in practice.
Cells constantly sense signals from their environment and convert them into internal actions through biochemical signalling pathways.
A future without transplant waitlists? Tissue engineering blends biology and engineering to build living, functional human tissue.
How a 150-year-old food industry technique became essential for creating stable biologics and inhaled medicines, transforming liquid drugs into life-saving powders.
Vaccines need precise temperature control to work but maintaining the cold chain wastes half of all doses globally. New thermostable formulations could change everything.
ISO/IEC 17025 compliance defines how testing and calibration laboratories demonstrate technical competence. In India, the National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories (NABL) grants accreditation based on this international standard (ISO, 2017).
Scientists are closer than ever to detecting life beyond Earth. From Mars to distant exoplanets, modern astronomy is transforming the search for alien life.
Nanotechnology is having a big impact on pharmaceutical sciences, and drug delivery systems are one area where this is most evident. Compared to conventional medication delivery methods, nanoparticles provide a number of benefits, including increased effectiveness and fewer adverse drug reactions.
Environmental pollution in densely populated regions remains a persistent challenge, particularly where cultural, religious, and social practices intersect with fragile ecosystems. While industrial emissions and vehicular pollution have received substantial scholarly attention, the environmental impact of everyday ritual and community practices
