If you've ever accidentally sliced yourself on broken glass or a piece of paper, you may have noticed that the bleeding can be hard to stop. Scientists have long wondered how the cascade of events ...

One of the hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease is the clumping of proteins called Tau, which form tangled fibrils in the brain.

The result is one molecule that can be both a checkpoint degrader and a cancer vaccine ( Nature 2026, DOI: 10.1038/s41586-025 ...
