University of Wisconsin researchers have solved a major problem holding back a promising cancer therapy, making it easier to produce consistently. The breakthrough has already launched a startup and could bring more treatment options to patients faster.
Leading autism researchers and advocates formed a new independent committee to guide autism research priorities and counter recent federal changes. The group aims to unite the autism community and protect evidence-based research as funding reaches $568 million annually.
New research shows Wisconsin farmers can slash greenhouse gas emissions while improving profits by shifting away from expensive corn and soybean production. The science-backed roadmap offers practical solutions that protect both climate and rural livelihoods.
Nearly 1,500 beagles are heading to forever homes after two animal rescue organizations purchased them from a Wisconsin research facility. The dogs will receive medical care and training before finding adoptive families across the country.
Ridglan Farms, a Wisconsin facility that bred beagles for laboratory experiments, is closing its doors for good. The remaining dogs will soon find loving homes instead of research cages.
A 59-year-old Wisconsin woman's arm tumor completely disappeared within two weeks of her diagnostic biopsy, stunning doctors who found zero cancer cells when they operated. She remains cancer-free one year later in what scientists call a "spontaneous regression."
Liam Sanborn, who beat leukemia four times before his 12th birthday, will lead Wisconsin's Big Climb fundraiser for blood cancer research. The warrior whose name means strength is turning his toughest moments into hope for others.
A scientist who revolutionized protein research is now tackling science's reproducibility crisis with AI. His new approach could help researchers separate reliable studies from questionable ones, speeding up cures for diseases like Alzheimer's.
Scientists now have access to an AI tool that filters through 150 years of research data to deliver trustworthy answers in seconds. CAS Newton helps researchers move from question to verified answer without drowning in information overload.
A new AI system from China's Zhejiang University just claimed the top spot on an international test for autonomous scientific research, beating out major competitors. The breakthrough shows how AI is getting better at thinking through complex research problems independently.
When US funding cuts threatened to collapse decades of life-saving health research in South Africa, the country fought back with a $32 million rescue package. Now 59 critical HIV and tuberculosis research projects are moving forward.
Billions in private donations are accelerating life-saving medical discoveries that might otherwise take decades or never happen. From cancer treatments to brain disease research, philanthropic funding is helping researchers pursue bold ideas with the flexibility government grants can't provide.
