Diagnostics, prosthetics, vaccines, genomics: the medicine that adds years to a life.
Medicine that wins years of life: AI-assisted screening examining millions of patients, next-generation vaccines, genomics moving from sequencing to treatment, prosthetics and implants restoring lost abilities. The section follows completed clinical trials, market authorisations, hospital roll-outs — the moment a technology stops being a paper and becomes care.
The numbers rule: cohorts, detection rates, avoided mortality, costs. We gladly cover the health systems deploying at scale — India, Brazil, Southeast Asia — because frugal technologies often prove themselves there before arriving anywhere else. Every article rests on the trial, authorisation or study behind it, and cites them.

University of Utah researchers tested the approach in mouse models and human liver organoids.
Antisense RNA delivered with nanoparticles blocked Smyca's activity in tumors and improved responses to existing treatments.
- The target is a uORF, an upstream RNA start site that can divert ribosomes; inactivation lowers KCNQ2 mRNA levels.
