Homegrown research from Adelaide continues to play a major role in changing the world’s understanding of cerebral palsy, tracing the causes back to genetics and reducing costly litigations against obstetricians.
Adelaide University researchers will investigate why Australia has the highest rate of early-onset bowel cancer in the world as part of a national collaboration into the causes of the killer disease.
Adelaide University researchers have developed a new way of using mRNA technology to reprogram tumour-supporting immune cells and strengthen the body’s anti-cancer immune response. The scientific team, spanning engineering, biomedical, oncology and immunology experts, has developed tiny, targeted particles that could help the immune system fight cancer by reprogramming immune cells within the tumour environment. The findings have been published in Science Advances today. The new approach uses li

In 2024, continuous glucose monitoring devices hit the shelves for over-the-counter consumer use. Historically, these devices were prescribed for people with type 1 diabetes and, more recently, for those with type 2 diabetes to monitor their glucose levels and adjust insulin dosage. Now, the devices are generating interest in people with prediabetes, obesity, or other conditions, including otherwi
A new clinical trial led by Jesse Cedarbaum, MD, professor of neurology, and David Hafler, MD , William S. and Lois Stiles Edgerly Professor of Neurology, is the first such study to test whether a drug can slow or prevent the onset of Parkinson’s disease in people at risk.
Living human cells will launch aboard a European research rocket next month as South Australian researchers use space to investigate cancer in a radically different environment.
Dogs trained in scent detection may be better at sniffing out the right smell after breakfast, with new research finding hungry dogs that are working for treats are more likely to falsely identify the wrong scent.
Thirteen percent of U.S. children aged 3–17 have a diagnosed mental or behavioral health condition, and American youth suicide rates far exceed those of peer countries. But the popular story — a sudden, smartphone-driven collapse — doesn't fit five decades of data. This series examines where the crisis comes from, which interventions demonstrably help, and what we still need to learn.
