Virtual twin to improve care for type 2 diabetes patients

Karolinska University Hospital is participating in a major EU project on AI and precision medicine. A virtual twin will help doctors provide more personalized care to patients with type 2 diabetes. The dAIbetes project will use data from around 800,000 European patients to train AI models. The data comes from patients with type 2 diabetes, […]

Two genes of the germline are essential for the development of brain tumours in Drosophila

Every cell in an organism carries an identical set of genetic instructions within its DNA. However, what determines whether a cell develops as a neuron, a muscle, or any other specific cell type lies in the activation or inactivation of  specific genes in that particular cell. For instance, in the Drosophila fly, the TrxT and […]

Reducing your pollen load

“Avoiding the allergen is always key with any allergy, whatever it might be,” says airborne allergens expert Max Wiseberg. “If you’re allergic to dairy, you avoid dairy products. And it’s the same with pollen if you get hay fever. Only it’s a little more difficult with pollen as it’s in the air we breathe. However, […]
