A multi-institutional team of specialists is using artificial intelligence to diagnose parasitic infections in patients by scanning stool samples. Their study is published in the open-access journal ...

Changes in the way that humans live and eat have resulted in tremendous alterations in the gut microbiome, especially over the past few decades. These changes have been linked to increased rates of ...

Scientists have long tried to introduce genetically engineered bacteria into the gut to treat diseases. In the past, these attempts have focused on engineering common lab strains of E. coli, which ...

42 Technology (42T), FIND, the global alliance for diagnostics, and Rutgers University (Rutgers) have worked together to develop an innovative stool sample processing kit that has played a central ...

Artificial intelligence can spot parasitic worm eggs in human faecal samples – including those from parasite species missed when lab technologists use a microscope to study the same samples. The ...

According to Oliver Fiehn, a metabolomics researcher at the University of California, Davis, people are much more than meets the eye. “We are not just human,” he said. “We are an ecosystem.” The ...

Scientists at ARUP Laboratories have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) tool that detects intestinal parasites in stool samples more quickly and accurately than traditional methods, potentially ...

The nationwide rollout, which Labcorp disclosed Monday, comes weeks after the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services approved coverage for ColoSense, and the American Cancer Society named the test ...
