In a rural area of Britain, a team of 100 scientists and engineers first used low-cost technologies to develop mobile phones and the aviation industry. Later, these technologies were used to research robot arms, which can be specially used for minimally invasive surgery.

Medical engineers at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center are using additive manufacturing to develop customized prosthetic solutions for veterans. In fact, the center is even operating a 3D Medical Application Center (3DAC). There, a team of specialized engineers and 3D printing technicians are developing customized equipment according to the requirements of veterans.

Fujifilm Corporation and the National Center for Psychiatric and Neurological Research have announced positive research results using Fujifilm's new AI technology to predict whether a patient with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) will progress to Alzheimer's disease (AD) within two years.

Targeted drug Selpercatinib has received accelerated approval from the FDA. It is cancer-independent and may benefit any solid tumour with a positive RET gene fusion. It is up to 84% effective in selected patients with non-small cell lung cancer!

DNA nano robot system is one of the nano machines, and has been continuously developed in recent years. In recent years, in the journal Science, we saw another "feat" realized by DNA nano robot - researchers used electric field to accelerate the movement speed of DNA robot system.

Scientists from MIT designed a microfluidic device to capture and count circulating plasma cells in small samples of blood. This technique can only be carried out through routine blood drawing, which is expected to reduce the pain of patients' myeloma testing.

The Phase I/Ib clinical trial of Mupadolimab, a humanized monoclonal antibody against CD73 and its combination with pablizumab, has received clinical trial approval from the NMPA Pharmacovigilance Center for use in patients with advanced solid tumors.

A new study has found that Istradefylline, a drug already approved to treat Parkinson's disease, not only reduces the toxicity associated with the chemotherapy drug cisplatin, but also boosts its cancer-fighting power, promising a potential treatment to reduce the side effects of chemotherapy.

The US FDA has approved a new leukaemia drug, Olutasidenib, which has been shown to be effective and has a controlled safety profile, resulting in the complete disappearance of cancer cells in 35% of patients enrolled, with efficacy lasting up to 25.9 months.

Biopharmaceutical company Airway has announced that the first patient will be administered AT-100 (rhSP-D) in a phase 1b randomised trial to prevent the risk of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in very preterm infants. The novel prophylactic AT-100 reduces the incidence and severity of the severe respiratory disease BPD and may improve the prognosis of very preterm infants.
