Synthetic iMSCs: reprogramming ovarian cancer from the inside out
Ovarian cancer has long proved difficult to treat. Could the answer lie within the disease itself? Discover how synthetic iMSCs could reprogramme the tumour microenvironment and restore anti-tumour immunity.
ArticleOrgan chips move closer to drug discovery pipelines
From uncovering new drug targets to predicting human toxicity, organ chips are showing what they could bring to drug discovery. Professor Donald Ingber of Harvard University discusses where the technology is heading next.
ArticleAI’s real value in drug discovery may be choosing the right experiment
AI is becoming more capable, but its value still depends on the data, questions and decisions behind it. Where is it genuinely improving drug discovery and where do the limitations remain?
ArticleFrom R&D to QC: building a single analytical strategy for cell and gene therapies
From early research to quality control, maintaining analytical continuity is no easy task. Could a single sequencing workflow help simplify analytical assessment?

NewsEuropean initiative aims to bring molecular dynamics into mainstream drug discovery
What if the vast amounts of data generated by molecular dynamics simulations could be routinely shared and reused? A new €10 million European initiative aims to do just that, helping researchers gain a deeper understanding of protein behaviour and drug-target interactions.
NewsMechanical forces key to realistic organ-on-chip laboratory models
A new review highlights how physical forces such as blood flow, breathing and tissue stiffness must be replicated alongside biochemical signals to produce physiologically accurate organoid and organ-on-chip models for disease research and drug testing.
NewsNew BET inhibitors could overcome barriers in solid tumour treatment
A new review examines how advances in drug design, PROTAC degraders and combination therapies are reviving the clinical prospects of BET inhibition in solid tumours, after early-generation compounds were hampered by toxicity, resistance and modest efficacy.
NewsGene therapy shows durable correction of methylmalonic acidemia in preclinical study
Preclinical findings from Genespire and SR-TIGET suggest a single administration of a liver-directed lentiviral gene therapy could provide lifelong correction of methylmalonic acidemia, a rare inherited metabolic disorder with no approved disease-targeted treatments.

The global push to reduce animal testing in drug development
Non-animal methods are already used throughout early drug discovery, yet animal testing continues to dominate regulatory safety assessment. Recent initiatives suggest change is coming, but significant scientific and practical challenges remain.
