The highly selective RET inhibitor selpercatinib was well-tolerated and achieved durable objective responses across multiple tumor types in the Phase I/II LIBRETTO-001 trial, according to researchers from The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center.

Starting twice daily flushing of the mucus-lined nasal cavity with a mild saline solution soon after testing positive for COVID-19 can significantly reduce hospitalization and death, investigators report.

In recent years, hydrogen has gained a lot of attention as a potential clean energy source since it combusts without generating climate-damaging emissions.

The development of effective solar cells, which use sunlight to create electricity or hydrogen by splitting water, has attracted a lot of interest worldwide.

Using a 3D printing technique, a tiny quantity of simulated crushed Martian rock mixed with a titanium alloy created a tougher, high-performance material that could one day be utilized on Mars to produce tools or rocket parts.

Sulfate-Reducing Bacteria (SRB), an anaerobic bacteria, has long been thought to be the primary factor in metal material corrosion failure.

A*STAR researchers at the Genome Institute of Singapore (GIS) have created the Variant Network (VarNet), an innovative artificial intelligence (AI)-based technique that can examine and find cancer mutations (variants) among the millions of DNA fragments found in a tumor sample.

If self-driving cars are to be widely adopted, we need to know that they can navigate difficult traffic scenarios such as joining heavy traffic when lanes merge on a highway. To tackle this, North Carolina State University researchers devised a method that enables autonomous car software to perform the necessary calculations more rapidly, boosting both traffic and security in simulated autonomous vehicle systems.

RMIT University engineers have developed a method for using disposable personal protective equipment (PPE) to strengthen concrete, providing a creative option to dramatically minimize pandemic-generated waste.

Neuroblastoma, a childhood cancer that develops from neural cells on the adrenal glands, accounts for 15% of childhood cancer deaths. Almost half of children with high-risk neuroblastoma harbor extra copies of the gene MYCN (MYCN amplified), the primary driver of neuroblastoma and its resistance to therapy.
