Scientists at the University of Florida have pioneered an mRNA-based “universal” cancer vaccine that triggers the body’s innate immune system by boosting type‑I interferon signals to recognize and destroy tumors across multiple cancer types.

In mouse models, this approach not only slowed tumor growth in melanoma, glioma, and bone metastasis but also substantially enhanced the effectiveness of immunotherapy.

Now, researchers are advancing to human clinical trials, bringing us closer to a future where a broad-spectrum cancer vaccine could be available off the shelf.

A new mRNA cancer vaccine showed remarkable results in mice, shrinking tumors when combined with immunotherapy and in some cases wiping them out on its own.

Researchers believe this could be a step toward a universal “off the shelf” cancer vaccine that activates the immune system to fight multiple cancers. The approach works by stimulating the body’s defenses as if it were fighting a virus, rather than targeting one specific tumor protein.

Air pollution isn’t just harming your lungs. It may also be quietly increasing your risk of dementia.

A massive review of nearly 30 million people links common pollutants like PM2.5, nitrogen dioxide, and soot to a higher dementia risk, with PM2.5 emerging as the most dangerous.

Reducing exposure to these pollutants could play a key role in protecting brain health as we age.

Regular exercise may do more than improve fitness—it could extend life after cancer.

A Phase III randomized trial published in the New England Journal of Medicine followed 889 colon cancer survivors for nearly 8 years.

Those in a 3-year structured exercise program had longer disease-free survival (80.3% vs. 73.9% at 5 years) and higher overall survival (90.3% vs. 83.2% at 8 years) compared to those who received only health-education materials.

An AI model developed at John Hopkins University is changing the game for heart health.

By analyzing heart MRI scans and full medical records, this tool spots scarring patterns linked to sudden cardiac death—something most doctors can’t detect.

It identified high-risk patients with nearly 90% accuracy, offering a smarter, more personalized way to prevent cardiac arrest in people with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

Gastroparesis affects how the stomach empties food, causing symptoms like nausea, bloating, and early fullness without any physical blockage.

It’s estimated that up to 5 million people in the U.S. may be living with this condition.

This month, we’re shining a light on gastroparesis to help more people understand this overlooked and misunderstood condition.

In an exciting breakthrough, researchers have identified cancer drugs that might reverse the effects of Alzheimer’s disease in the brain.

By analyzing gene expression in brain cells, they discovered that some FDA-approved cancer medications could reverse damage caused by Alzheimer’s.

This discovery offers a potential step forward in treatment research and brings hope to those impacted by the disease.

Radiation therapy is doing more than shrinking tumors. It’s helping the immune system fight back.

New research from Johns Hopkins shows that combining radiation with immunotherapy can help the body recognize and fight cancer, even in tumors that were previously unresponsive.

This discovery offers new hope for patients facing immunotherapy-resistant lung cancer.

Alzheimer’s doesn’t start when memory loss begins. It can silently develop in the brain 20 years or more before symptoms appear.

During that time, abnormal protein build-up gradually damages brain cells and spreads across regions involved in memory, reasoning, and language.

This is why advancing early detection and prevention research is so important.
