Co-founders of the UCL Huntington’s Disease Centre – Professors Tabrizi and Wild There is no cure for Huntington’s disease, a devastating brain disorder that causes severe motor loss, dementia, and eventual death. But, a clinical trial delivered positive results this week, finding that patients receiving a new treatment for 36 months experienced 75% less progression of the disease overall (compared …

Some offices have coffee breaks to keep morale up. Others, like the one in this video, have a Golden Retriever. Cheddar has officially declared himself the office’s most important employee — or rather, everyone’s “favorite coworker.” Instead of crunching numbers or sitting through meetings, his main job seems to be making sure nobody gets too focused on their laptops when …

Huntington’s disease, a devastating degenerative illness that runs in families, has been treated successfully for the first time in a breakthrough gene therapy trial. The disease, caused by a single gene defect, steadily kills brain cells leading to dementia, paralysis and ultimately death. Those with a parent with Huntington’s have a 50% chance of developing the disease, which until now …

James GallagherHealth and science correspondent BBC/Fergus Walsh Professors Ed Wild and Sarah Tabrizi led the UK part of the trial One of the cruellest and most devastating diseases – Huntington’s – has been successfully treated for the first time, say doctors. The disease runs through families, relentlessly kills brain cells and resembles a combination of dementia, Parkinson’s and motor neurone …

A team of researchers from Stanford University and the Arc Institute in Palo Alto, California say they’ve created viruses with AI-designed DNA that can target and kill specific bacteria. And these aren’t just simulated possibilities — they’re real and already slaying germs in the lab. The work, published in a new study awaiting peer-review, is a compelling testament to the …

NASA announced on Wednesday that the problem would prevent the spacecraft from reaching the ISS as scheduled. Engineers ultimately determined the engine’s early shutdown was caused by onboard software designed to protect the spacecraft from a potential problem. Data transmitted from the spacecraft back to Northrop Grumman’s mission control center in Northern Virginia confirmed the engine itself operated normally. The …

Stanford Medicine researchers have discovered that hyperactivity in a brain region known as the reticular thalamic nucleus may underlie behaviors associated with autism spectrum disorder. By dampening activity in this area using experimental drugs and neuromodulation techniques, they were able to reverse autism-like symptoms in mice, from seizures to social deficits.
