## Resource

Scientists have discovered a gene network that controls nerve regeneration — and an existing drug may unlock repair once thought permanently impossible. Researchers at UCLA have cracked a major obstacle in cancer immunotherapy by giving immune cells a fuel source that tumors can't steal. A large Cleveland Clinic study is flipping assumptions about what happens when patients stop taking weight loss drugs like Ozempic. Meanwhile, colorectal cancer rates are rising in adults under 50 for reasons scientists are still racing to understand. Plus: how ancient potato farming may have literally rewritten the DNA of entire human populations. Subscribe to Peer Review'd Newsletter: https://peerreviewd.com/ Love Science?
