The film 'The Cure' features Ally Braun, a teen isolated by lupus, who befriends a mysterious girl named Brooke, leading to dark discoveries for all involved.

Leading robotic urological surgeon Professor Prokar Dasgupta said it felt 'almost as if I was there' as he carried out a prostrate removal on Paul Buxton. The cancer patient, 62, said it had been a 'no-brainer' to take part and become 'part of medical history'. It is hoped that remote robotic surgery could spare future patients the 'vast expense and inconvenience' of travelling for treatment, and help deliver better healthcare to people in more remote locations.

Performing the procedure 1,500 miles away, from London's Harley Street district, was Prof Prokar Dasgupta, a professor of urology who heads The London Clinic's robotic centre of excellence. With the help of technology services provider Presidio, Dasgupta used a console in London to guide the Toumai Robotic System, made by Microport, through an intricate sequence of steps to successfully give Buxton a prostatectomy, a surgical removal of the prostate.

The sound stopped suddenly. I wanted to use my right foot to hit the drum twice, but I ended with the first try. At that instant, my brain really drew a blank. I thought, 'What's going on?' This was Yamaguchi's recollection of the first symptoms of musician's dystonia that appeared during a concert in 2009, marking the beginning of his five-year journey to diagnosis.

Go for a run, watch a film, try to entertain someone else's baby: anything that involves pottering about in an undemanding yet still vaguely engaged way, which absolutely couldn't be classed as work but isn't totally vegetative either. It may not be the productivity hack any go-getter wants to hear, but it's surprising how often a spell of aimless noodling around frees an otherwise overworked human brain to make the kind of lateral mental leap that helps everything fall into place.

EMR could greatly simplify the process without relying on invasive surgery, and potentially lower costs as well.

In 1954, doctors recognized the problem of resistance to antibiotics due to natural selection. The concern was that effective treatments could quickly become ineffective.

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) can reduce inflammation, repair damaged tissue, and modulate the immune system, with potential to treat chronic diseases and delay ageing.

The surgical robot acted like a self-driving car that can "navigate any road, in any condition, responding intelligently to whatever it encounters," demonstrating its autonomy.

Automated surgery shows potential, evidenced by a study where an AI-trained robot successfully conducted pig gall bladder operations with a 100% success rate, showcasing efficient performance.

Imagine it's the middle of the night, and your child is seriously ill. You rush to the hospital, bracing for mountains of paperwork, long waits, and an overburdened staff.

"It was a first-in-the-world procedure," the Gildersome, West Yorks resident said. "I wasn't scared of the operation, I think it was just the unknown...my inspiration was to get well for my family and grandchildren."

"After nearly two decades of hard work and setbacks, many say that Japan is on the cusp of bringing these therapies to market."

We named our Techbio startup Cure51 after Rosalind Franklin, whose works and discoveries were game-changing for modern medicine as we know it today.
