NewsBacterial nanoplatform targets spleen to reprogram immune cells and prevent cancer recurrence
Researchers have announced the development of an engineered nanoplatform named t-SMC, which precisely targets the spleen to reverse splenic myelopoiesis toward an antitumoral immune phenotype.

NewsResearchers develop experimentally validated AI model to predict the virulence of tomato yellow leaf curl virus
A research team has developed DeepTYLCV, an accurate and interpretable artificial intelligence model for predicting the virulence of Tomato Yellow Leaf Curl Virus (TYLCV). DeepTYLCV uses viral genome-derived sequence information, enabling the model to identify mild and severe strains before symptom-based confirmation.

NewsScientists engineer quantum-enabled proteins, opening a new frontier in biotechnology
A new study reports the creation of a new class of biomolecules, magneto-sensitive fluorescent proteins, that can interact with magnetic fields and radio waves. This is enabled by quantum mechanical interactions within the protein, and occur when it is exposed to light of an appropriate wavelength.
