3-Minute Brainwave Test Detects Alzheimer’s Years Before Symptoms
A team of researchers has developed a simple three-minute brainwave test called Fastball EEG that can detect early signs of memory impairment linked to Alzheimer’s disease.
Unlike traditional memory tests, it is…
News and studies come out from time to time about 3D printing skin grafts. Skin grafts could be the first human organ to be 3D printed in an evidence-based way.
It would be a game-changer for the treatment of burns and chronic wounds.
Researchers have already printed a…
Managing patients with atrial fibrillation and coronary artery disease remains a challenge. Up to 40% of patients have both conditions and need both anticoagulation and antiplatelet therapy. #ESCCongress

The most radically recoded genome yet!
Syn57 is E Coli with only 57 codons, freeing space to encode up to 4 non-canonical amino acids. That, combined with its virus resistance, will make it an incredible tool for biomanufacturing.

Hospital mortality rates from trauma are 10 times higher for rural/Northern BC patients. Having emergency closures will only add to this number.
On top of that, in BC we are not consistently providing a multidisciplinary approach to pre-hospital care (medical transport) for…
