Alloy implants that naturally dissolve after healing
Australian researchers have been developing biodegradable magnesium-based alloys that more closely match the mechanical properties of human bone.
Partnership eyes up gene-editing approaches to vision loss
A partnership will build on Australian ophthalmic research into mechanisms that damage nerve cells connecting the retina to the brain, leading to irreversible blindness.
Irregular blood pressure patterns and dementia-associated brain changes
Hypertension has long been recognised as a risk factor for cognitive decline, yet the impact of blood pressure changes throughout the day has been less understood.
AusBiotech partners with Tenmile
Designed to support Australia's homegrown life sciences innovation, AusBiotech has announced a strategic partnership with a specialist health technology investor.
How an Alzheimer's-linked protein shapes long-term memories
Tau, a protein widely associated with memory loss in dementia, has been shown to be essential for organising and stabilising memories so they persist over time.
