Gut Feeling: How the Gut–Brain Axis Affects Our Mood
The extent of the gut–brain connection is particularly striking in the field of microbiome research. Studies have shown that the microenvironment of the gut can alter the course of neuropsychiatric diseases like autism spectrum disorder, anxiety, depression and pain, as well as some neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson’s disease. Newer fields like pyschogastroenterology are also suggesting links between the microbiota and psychological and cognitive states.

Antibodies in Neuroscience
Antibodies are invaluable tools in many areas of life science research, including neuroscience. They can be used to label specific antigens on the surface of protein “targets” to identify their location and function, and can be exploited therapeutically, helping to restore or strengthen the immune system’s response to disease-related molecules.

Five Steps Towards the Human Cell Atlas
The Human Cell Atlas (HCA) is an international consortium working towards the goal of creating an atlas of every cell type in the human body. Since the HCA was established in 2016, thousands of researchers have used the latest emerging single-cell analysis technologies to examine human cells in unprecedented detail. By charting the different cell types, positions and interactions, and providing open-access maps of their discoveries, researchers worldwide are improving the understanding of the biology underpinning health and disease.

Key Developments in Cancer Immunotherapy Over the Last Decade
Cancer immunotherapy has been heralded as the most promising advancement in the treatment of cancer since the discovery of chemotherapy. Immunotherapies for over a dozen types of cancer have been awarded regulatory approval, leading to a decline in the overall rate of cancer mortality in the US. In fact, the most recent available data from 2016–2017 reveals the largest ever recorded reduction in cancer-related deaths.
Examining the Reproducibility Crisis
Despite the vital importance of reproducibility to credible science, numerous fields of research continue to experience an ongoing reproducibility crisis, where many findings cannot be independently reproduced and replicated (and some cannot even be replicated by the original researchers themselves).

Cell Signaling in Cancer: Communicating Recent Advances
Disruptions to carefully orchestrated cell signaling pathways can lead to pathological states. In cancer, genetic mutations or epigenetic alterations to genes regulating signaling pathways can promote malignant transformation by triggering various pathological mechanisms. These mechanisms circumvent the cell’s normal checks and balances.

1. Proliferation/metabolism
2. Cell cycle/DNA repair/apoptosis
3. Angiogenesis
Life Savers – A Brief History of Vaccines
