Once the realm of science fiction, this is now a near reality.
Aedes aegypti mosquitoes live in a tropical climate and carry dangerous diseases such as dengue fever and the Zika virus. Annually, $1 million USD is budgeted to combat malevolent mosquitoes. The new development by the biotech company Oxitec, which has created genetically modified mosquitoes, will cost less and be more effective. This is an important development because mosquitoes become pesticide-resistant over time.
The company MindMics has developed an infrasound technology called SoundPoint, which uses headphones to record low-frequency sound waves produced by the human body. The technology gives a complete picture of heart health, including data on heart rate, blood volume in veins and arteries, and valve function.

A biomarker is a characteristic that is used to determine the condition of a human body. Any lab report consists of a set of biomarkers. For example, a general blood test includes more than 10 indicators, including hemoglobin, white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets. A reference value is a range of conventionally normal values determined for each biomarker in a presumably healthy population.

For example, when considering witness testimony in court. New research conducted by Adam Albi and Peter Paikossy from the Budapest University of Technology and Economics has shown that there is an objective way to measure how reliable a person's memories are simply by observing their pupil response.
Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide. However, unlike many other illnesses, they can often be prevented — especially if detected early, treated promptly, and managed with appropriate lifestyle changes. A new test aims to make that possible.
Mary E. Brunkow, Fred Ramsdell, and Shimon Sakaguchi have been awarded the 2025 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their groundbreaking discoveries on peripheral immune tolerance. But what exactly makes their work so brilliant—and how can it help the rest of us?
