World Cancer Day 2023 | Precision oncology is a new way of looking at cancer treatment: Dr Sewanti Limaye
Dr Sewanti Limaye, Director, Precision Oncology, HN Reliance Hospital and Research Centre. Cancer is among the most researched diseases in the world. For most cancers, early detection is rare, and there isn’t enough consensus among oncologists, researchers and practitioners of non-Western medicine on its exact causes. Overall, a few broad causes have been conclusively established: Cancer may arise as a consequence of genomic abnormalities such as mutations, or when the body’s immune system weakens or collapses, or due to external assaults to the body such as tobacco use, exposure to chemicals and radiation and certain infections. But much like the human body, much of this disease is a mystery. There is no one cause and there is no one cure. As Pulitzer Prize-winning author and oncologist Siddhartha Mukherjee has written in his cancer magnum opus The Emperor of All Maladies , “That this seemingly simple mechanism—cell growth without barriers—can lie at the heart of this … [Read more...] about World Cancer Day 2023 | Precision oncology is a new way of looking at cancer treatment: Dr Sewanti Limaye

Skipping Pilot Purgatory For TinyML And IoT Solutions
Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin Vitaly Kleban is the CTO at Everynet | Tech due diligence for VC | TinyML Contributor | LoRaWAN Contributor | ISO Blockchain Contributor. Pilot projects are crucial for assessing the performance of IoT solutions—yet many of them are stuck in pilot purgatory. One of the reasons for that is that many project teams start thinking about the pilot evaluation criteria once the project is underway already, or even when the project has been completed. Skipping The Pilot Purgatory One way to avoid pilot purgatory is to move your team's attention from project planning to project rollout by using binding “try-and-buy” contracts. Within the framework of such contracts, the customer undertakes to roll out the solution in question right after the success criteria of the pilot project have been achieved. In order to successfully apply such a framework, it is necessary to provide reliable ways for designing and … [Read more...] about Skipping Pilot Purgatory For TinyML And IoT Solutions
Will Receptor Decoys Both Prevent And Treat SARS-CoV-2 Infection?
Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin A new ACE2 decoy mechanism efficiently neutralizes a variety of Covid-19 variants, including Omicron strains. With the continuous evolution of the SARS-CoV-2 virus over the last three years, the pathogen has become more efficient at infecting our cells and evading our immune defenses. One crucial aspect of this efficiency is affinity to the ACE2 receptor, a major selection criterion in virus evolution. The ACE2 decoy mimics the host cell ACE2, similarly engaging the virus and inhibiting viral entry to a real cell. Using receptors as decoys is not a novel concept. In connection to SARS-CoV-2, ACE2 decoys were tested against closely related viruses, SARS-1 and HIV, in recent decades. The decoy did not come to fruition against these viruses for myriad reasons. For SARS-1, the strategy showed some signs of reduced symptoms in mouse models, but the outbreak calmed before further animal and human testing could continue. For HIV, … [Read more...] about Will Receptor Decoys Both Prevent And Treat SARS-CoV-2 Infection?
