Investigating the widely accepted notion that the communication between the stomach and brain regulates overeating, a recent study at UC San Francisco aimed to test this hypothesis. By examining the intricate workings of our digestive system, researchers explored how signals during a meal influence our eating behavior. The study’s results shed light on the complex relationship between physiological signals, challenging our understanding of how the body controls food intake.

Researchers developed a super-strong surgical glue that outperforms regular stitches
Researchers have created a powerful surgical adhesive surpassing traditional stitch. This glue, composed of a novel biomaterial, is exceptionally strong and flexible, enabling superior adhesion to skin and tissues. It offers notable benefits: faster application, reduced pain, lower infection risk, and discreet appearance, particularly for facial use. In a 100-patient study, the glue proved as […]
BioArt from a Bio-artist’s Perception
BioArt is broadly defined as an imaginary live art form that involves micro-organisms; living, semi-living, or assisted living tissues; tissue-cultured cells or tissues; transgenic tissues; biological life processes; dead plants, animals, or even insects; body fluids or serum; and other living organisms. Bio-artists collate the above-mentioned elements in terms of the technological aspects of science. […]
