Precision Medicine

Psychiatry’s most stubborn blind spot—objective tests that match the precision of cardiology or oncology—met a serious contender that stitched brain imaging, electrical rhythms, gut microbes, blood chemistry, and lived behavior into one accountable operating system for care. The technology under

For a disease that quietly affects nearly half a million Americans each year, a precision antibiotic that erases Borrelia burgdorferi while leaving the microbiome intact would shift Lyme treatment from blunt-force regimens to targeted, durable care that preserves health far beyond the infection

Missed by the very blood tests meant to reveal them, too many testicular cancers slip through diagnostic nets just when speed matters most for adolescents and young adults facing life-shaping treatment choices. That gap is precisely what a new high-dimensional immune profiling approach set out to

Nineteen protein subunits arranged in a near-perfect circle gripped a frayed DNA end, and that spare geometry—simple, symmetric, and relentless—reshaped how a critical cancer target might be stopped. The ring belonged to Mgm101, a yeast mitochondrial homolog of human RAD52, and under a convergence

Long after scales celebrate a hard-won weight loss, the immune system can keep score in subtler ways, storing traces of past obesity inside helper T cells as molecular marks that linger and continue to shape health in the background. This emerging insight reframes obesity as more than excess fat;

Spine surgeons at UC San Diego Health just turned a complex, high-stakes operation into a choreographed, data-driven performance that put the West Coast on notice. The institution’s first spine surgery using a fully integrated robotic, AI-enabled platform was more than a successful case; it was a
