Researchers  have developed a new method that genetically blocks mosquitoes from transmitting malaria. The study was published July 23, 2025 in the journal Nature.

Your cells’ mitochondria produce almost all the energy your body needs to survive. They also play a role in many other vital cellular functions. This Research in Context feature looks at how insights about these cellular powerhouses might lead to new ways of preventing and treating disease.

Next-generation system noninvasively images tiny nerve structures disrupted in brain disorders.

Scientists developed a way to engineer T cells within a living organism. The approach could make CAR T cell therapies more accessible for treating cancer and autoimmune diseases.

Researchers developed a way to measure how fast a person is aging from a single brain scan. The findings may aid efforts to predict a person’s risk for age-related diseases and test interventions to slow aging.

Researchers used a mouse model to gain insights into how exercise alters brain cells to protect them against Alzheimer’s disease. The findings hint at possible future treatment strategies.

By reprogramming the behavior of brain cells, new gene therapy could stop Alzheimer’s at the source.

New research shows that certain cell proteins can help or hurt base editing

Their research reveals that an immune molecule called STING drives the formation of the harmful plaques and protein tangles thought responsible for Alzheimer’s. Blocking the molecule protected lab mice from mental decline, the researchers say.
