Researchers use virtual simulations to track and predict how chemicals used in everyday objects impact human health over time.

Researchers discover a protein-cutting enzyme that may be responsible for inflammatory skin conditions triggered by yeast species.

By tracing the molecular pathways affected by a key ingredient in airborne particulates, Rachel Phua is trying to understand how polluted air alters our skin.

A new portable diagnostic technology promises unparalleled speed, accuracy and clinical utility for ovarian cancer diagnoses.

The untapped potential of stem cells can lead us to new treatment avenues for inflammatory skin diseases, says Kenneth Lay.

From molecular methods to advanced optics, scientists are combining techniques and expertise from diverse disciplines to transform skin health research and fortify the body’s outermost barrier.

A new approach combines surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy with advanced computer analysis to accurately and rapidly detect lung cancer by analysing fluid around the lungs.

A non-invasive diagnostic method that uses light and sound can help clinicians assess and track patients with a chronic inflammatory skin condition.

Researchers discover key differences in the skin’s natural flora between healthy adults and those with genetic dry skin diseases.

Researchers discover that circadian rhythms control immune responses and may affect how our skin’s immune system responds to allergies.
