UCLA scientists engineered ready-made T cells from cord blood stem cells that can hunt solid tumors even when cancer cells hide their main target. T cell receptor therapy, commonly called TCR therapy, is a form of cancer treatment that genetically modifies immune cells known as T cells so they can recognize and attack cancer more […]
Could a Decades-Old Diabetes Drug Help the Body Age More Slowly?
A familiar diabetes pill could hold the power to slow the biological forces that leave the body increasingly vulnerable to disease as it ages. What if a drug already prescribed to millions of people could do more than control blood sugar? For years, researchers have wondered whether metformin, one of the world’s most widely used […]
Scientists Say the Universe Isn’t Slowing Down After All
The universe still appears to be expanding at an accelerating rate, despite a recent study that suggested it may have started slowing down. An international team of astrophysicists says the universe is still expanding at an accelerating rate, rejecting recent claims that cosmic expansion may have begun to slow. The researchers challenged a study published […]

A Century-Old Mystery in Venus’s Clouds Just Got Even Stranger
A new model connects observations of Venus with the optical properties of the liquid inside its cloud droplets. Venus’s clouds look pale yellow from afar, but the liquid inside their droplets could be much darker than their appearance suggests. A new study has calculated how strongly that liquid would need to absorb light to explain […]
90-Million-Year-Old Fossil Reveals a Small Dinosaur Living Along Japan’s Coast
A small iguanodontian fossil from Japan adds evidence that Late Cretaceous coastal ecosystems supported dinosaurs of widely different body sizes. Iguanodontians were widespread plant-eating dinosaurs that lived from the Late Jurassic through the Late Cretaceous. Their movement between Asia, North America, and Europe helped shape their diversification across Laurasia, making fossils from Japan especially useful […]
