    What human brain tissue transplanted into mice showed us (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    A study published in September in Nature by neuroscientist Sergiu Pașca’s group at Stanford University reports an experiment that sounds almost like science fiction. Human brain tissue grown from stem cells was transplanted into mice in which much of the cerebral cortex had been genetically prevented from forming. The transplanted tissue grew into this vacant space, produced several types of human brain cells, became electrically active, connected with the mouse nervous system and was associated

    Why does male contraception still lag so far behind? (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    World Contraception Day on September 26 offers an opportunity to look closely at a part of family planning that receives very little attention: contraception for men. The key question here is why the range of methods available to men and women remains so different. Women today have options including oral pills, injectables, implants, intrauterine devices and permanent sterilisation, though access and affordability to safe and reliable contraception in our country continues to remain a major chal

    A tiny insect, a deadly enemy: how medicine’s discovery of its impact shaped health and town planning (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Anyone waiting for municipal approval of a building plan may wonder why a local body should regulate construction on private land. In the Madras Presidency, such powers were formalised under the Madras City Municipal Corporation Act, 1919. After Independence, the first Conference of State Ministers on Town and Country Planning in 1960 gave impetus to master plans, planning legislation and similar regulatory systems across India. Behind these powers lay a public health purpose: ensuring proper dr

    What we can learn from nature switching off human genes (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Some people can live apparently ordinary lives even when both copies of a gene (one inherited from the mother and the other from the father) have stopped working. Until their DNA is sequenced, they may never know that this has happened. A large study from Pakistan, published in Nature (June 2026), has now identified such naturally occurring ‘human knockouts’ on an unprecedented scale. Among 1,73,303 participants, about one in five carried at least one gene in which loss-of-function variants had
