Tricky Tumors
Brain tumors exploit the body’s immune system for their own benefit. Neurosurgeon Jenny Kienzler is researching ways to prevent this. -
Lifelong Motor Function Development
UZH researchers found that strength and coordination decrease dramatically with age, but fine motor skills of our hands and fingers do not. -
Back in European Business
Two ERC Starting Grants were awarded to UZH scientists, as researchers based in Switzerland are once again eligible for Horizon Europe funding. -
The Google Maps of Cell Analysis
Apricot BIO, a University of Zurich spin-off, developed a process that quickly determines the right medication for cancer patients. -
AI Meets CRISPR for Precise Gene Editing
The powerful new method opens the door to more accurate modeling of human diseases and lays the groundwork for next-gen gene therapies. -
A High-Resolution View of Cancer Cells
Today’s most advanced instruments can peer deep into living cells, helping researchers study diseases such as cancer and improve therapies. -
43,000 Data Points against Melanoma
Every tumor is unique. In a new study, scientists from Zurich and Basel used advanced technologies to create individual profiles for precise tumor treatment. -
500,000 Francs for Pioneering Research
The Gretener-Thürlemann Prize at the University of Zurich is awarded in its first year to researchers in the field of translational/clinical medicine. -
Digital Assistant for Cancer Treatment
AI has the ability to advance precision cancer treatment by using data to predict the course of the disease with greater accuracy. This saves resources and precious time. -
Retinal Clues to Mental Health
A new study has shown that evidence of genetic susceptibility to schizophrenia can be found in the retina. This finding could help improve the early detection of the disorder. -
Decoys Restore Antiviral Immune Defense
Defects in the immune system are caused by antibodies that inhibit important defense proteins. UZH researchers have now generated "decoy molecules" that can intercept these autoantibodies. -
Schizophrenia is Reflected in the Brain Structure
The symptoms of schizophrenia vary greatly from person to person. A new study shows how these differences manifest themselves in the structure of the brain. -
Curbing the Global Spread of Sexually Transmitted Diseases
Cases of bacterial sexually transmitted infections are on the rise worldwide. The University of Zurich has now developed a new method for genome sequencing and discovered a previously unrecognized strain of chlamydia
