Researchers in Tokyo have developed a breakthrough molecule that delivers DNA into cells without causing harmful inflammation, a major obstacle in current gene therapies. Early tests in mice show the new method works up to 14 times better than existing approaches.
Walmart and Wing are bringing 30-minute drone delivery to seven new cities, bringing flying packages to nearly 20 U.S. markets. After completing one million deliveries, the service that started as an experiment has become something customers use multiple times per week.
Scientists built an AI that designs synthetic DNA switches capable of turning genes on and off in specific cells, potentially transforming how we treat diseases like leukemia. In lab tests, these AI-generated sequences actually outperformed natural DNA at reactivating a protective gene in leukemia cells.
Scientists created a silicon chip that writes 64 DNA sequences at once using only water and electricity, replacing a toxic chemical process. The breakthrough could lead to portable DNA labs and even DNA-based data storage.
Researchers are creating microscopic robots made from DNA that could one day deliver drugs directly to diseased cells and capture viruses in the bloodstream. While still experimental, these molecular machines represent a breakthrough in combining biology with robotics.
A labor and delivery nurse transformed tone-deaf comments from partners into "inspirational" TikTok videos that have sparked millions of views. Her creative response to inappropriate delivery room behavior is teaching partners everywhere what not to say.
Starship Technologies is moving over 1,200 delivery robots from college campuses to focus on grocery delivery in cities. The shift reflects growing demand and the company's confidence that robots are ready for the big leagues.
Scientists discovered a bacterial protein that creates DNA without copying existing genetic material—something biology textbooks say shouldn't be possible. The breakthrough could lead to revolutionary new tools for building custom DNA molecules.
Workhorse just launched a more affordable electric delivery truck that could save small delivery companies thousands as gas prices spike nationwide. The new model cuts battery size without sacrificing the range most drivers actually need.
Toyota and Daihatsu just launched electric delivery vans that can travel 160 miles on a single charge, perfect for Japan's bustling city streets. The vehicles keep the same cargo space as gas models while cutting emissions from the country's massive delivery network.
A breakthrough AI tool from Google DeepMind can read massive DNA sequences with single-letter precision, helping scientists predict how genetic changes lead to diseases like cancer. The free research tool is already helping researchers understand the 98% of human DNA once dismissed as "junk."
A fully autonomous drone delivery system in India has already completed 3.6 million deliveries while saving over 1,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions annually. The technology replaces traditional vehicles with smart aerial drones that deliver packages directly to doorsteps.
A sidewalk delivery robot company just acquired a hospital robotics startup, bringing together outdoor delivery bots and indoor medical helpers in a deal that could transform how robots serve us. The $29 million merger combines two proven fleets that have already completed millions of real-world tasks.
Scientists discovered all five building blocks of DNA on asteroid Ryugu, suggesting the ingredients for life might be common throughout our solar system. The findings support the possibility that life's essential components could have arrived on Earth from space.
Frozen droppings from prehistoric squirrels in Canada's Yukon have revealed DNA from woolly mammoths, ancient big cats, and dozens of other ice age creatures. The 700,000-year-old genetic material ranks among the oldest DNA ever recovered, offering scientists an extraordinary window into ancient life.
Amazon just launched the UK's first drone delivery service, dropping packages into gardens across County Durham in under two hours. The futuristic service that once seemed decades away is now buzzing across British skies.
Scientists in Mumbai have cracked a way to make antibiotic-resistant bacteria vulnerable again using specially designed DNA sequences. The breakthrough could restore the power of older antibiotics that bacteria learned to defeat.
Scientists at MIT and Scripps Research just made a breakthrough that could finally lead to an effective HIV vaccine. Their DNA-based approach generated eight times more of the rare immune cells needed to fight the virus compared to current leading candidates.
Your next food delivery might arrive on a self-driving bike. DoorDash just invested in Also, a Rivian spinoff making autonomous electric vehicles designed to navigate bike lanes and sidewalks.
Lagos traffic authorities are teaming up with delivery companies to reduce motorcycle crashes through education and partnerships. The initiative includes rider safety workshops and a school program reaching nearly 40% of students.
