Researchers from the University of California, Davis (UC-Davis) continue to assemble intellectual property in support of their development of methods and techniques which improve the accuracy of wearable sensor technologies.
The U.K. Medicines and Healthcare products Agency (MHRA) is calling for more research into the vaginal microbiome as a way to redress the historic under-representation of women in clinical studies, which it said has contributed to “critical shortcomings” in understanding of female-specific conditions.

The largest genome-wide association study to date of myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome has identified eight genetic loci that are significantly associated with the chronic debilitating condition. Onset of ME/CFS often is traced back to an infection and four of the loci involve genes that are expressed in response to viral or bacterial infections.

Homeobox genes, a conserved family of transcription factors, are key regulators of embryogenesis, cell growth and differentiation, and have been linked to bone mass regulation and osteogenesis. However, their specific roles in postmenopausal osteoporosis and osteoclast development are still not well understood, with limited and fragmented knowledge on which genes are central to these processes.
Cooler Heads Care Inc. closed an oversubscribed series A, raising a cool $11 million for Amma, its portable scalp cooling system that reduces hair loss during chemotherapy. The new funds will facilitate expanded access to Amma, which is available to patients through infusion centers.
Plexāā Ltd. recently raised $4.5 million to support the upcoming U.S. launch of Bloom43, its wearable device that helps patients prepare for breast cancer surgery and reconstruction by using a technique called supraphysiological preconditioning.
After expanding development of DM-199 (rinvecalinase alfa) into preeclampsia last year, Diamedica Inc. rolled out early phase II results showing the recombinant form of human tissue kallikrein-1 reduced the mother’s blood pressure, did not cross the placental barrier, and potentially improves blood flow to the fetus.
