Revolutionizing Colonoscopies: MIT's Sprayable Gel Enhances Surgical Safety and Recovery

Revolutionizing Colonoscopies: MIT's Sprayable Gel Enhances Surgical Safety and Recovery

Colonoscopy screenings, a routine procedure for over 20 million Americans annually, play a pivotal role in preventing colon cancer by enabling the removal of large polyps. Despite its benefits, the procedure is not without risks, particularly the threat of gastrointestinal bleeding during and post-surgery. Addressing this challenge, MIT researchers have

Sweat's Secret Weapon: A Natural Guard Against Lyme Disease

Sweat's Secret Weapon: A Natural Guard Against Lyme Disease

Lyme disease, transmitted by ticks and affecting nearly half a million Americans annually, has found a formidable opponent not in medicine, but within us. Researchers from MIT and the University of Helsinki have uncovered a protein in human sweat that offers protection against this bacterial affliction. Intriguingly, a third of

Shining New Light on 'Chemo Brain': A Beacon of Hope Through Gamma Therapy

Shining New Light on 'Chemo Brain': A Beacon of Hope Through Gamma Therapy

The cognitive fog known as "chemo brain," marked by memory lapses and concentration difficulties, has long shadowed patients undergoing chemotherapy. However, a beacon of hope emerges from MIT, where researchers have unveiled a noninvasive treatment that stimulates gamma frequency brain waves, offering a potential shield against this cognitive
