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.
