AI for management of retinal diseases

Development of Artificial Intelligence for the management of retinal diseases – New Christian Doppler Laboratory opened at MedUni Vienna: The number of patients at risk of developing serious retinal diseases or even going blind in the future is growing much faster than the number of trained ophthalmologists. The time available for examination is decreasing in […]

Mental health problems after concussion

A third of children and adolescents develop a mental health problem after a concussion, which could persist for several years post-injury, according to a new literature review. The research, led by the Murdoch Children’s Research Institute (MCRI) and published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, found mental health should be evaluated as part of standard pediatric concussion […]

New algorithm for the diagnostics of dementia

New algorithm for the diagnostics of dementia: A top-level international research team including researchers from the University of Eastern Finland has developed a new algorithm for the diagnostics of dementia. The algorithm is based on blood and cerebrospinal fluid biomarker measurements. These biomarkers can be used to aid setting of an exact diagnosis already in […]

Immunomodulating cancer treatments

Focus on advancing immunomodulating cancer treatments – Christian Doppler Laboratory for Personalized Immunotherapy opened at MedUni Vienna: The interactions between cancer tissue and a patient’s individual immune system are part of a complex and hitherto insufficiently understood interplay. However, a thorough understanding of this complex orchestration of activating and suppressing signals is essential as a […]

How stress can stop immune cells in their tracks

How stress can stop immune cells in their tracks: Researchers have discovered that signals produced by nerves in response to stress can stop immune cells from effectively fighting pathogens or tumours. Led by University of Melbourne Professor Scott Mueller, Laboratory Head at the Peter Doherty Institute for Infection and Immunity (Doherty Institute), the study made the […]
