- A joint team from KAIST, Gangnam Severance Hospital, and Asan Medical Center is the first to reveal how colorectal cancer progression reshapes the blood’s “metabolic map”

- The new method showed higher predictive power than CEA, a conventional blood biomarker, raising hopes for personalized treatment strategies

- An interdisciplinary idea born from the KAIST Master’s and PhD Venture Research Program led to a world-class research achievement

CAPE CANAVERAL SPACE FORCE STATION, Fla. – The Robotic Servicing of Geosynchronous Satellite (RSGS) payload, on board SpaceLogistic’s Mission Robotic Vehicle (MRV) has successfully launched from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral U.S. Space Force Station at about 5:15 pm on July 21, 2026. It is the first privately owned, operational robotic in-space servicing mission that extends the life and resilience of satellites in geosynchronous orbit (GEO) through on-orbit servicing.

Texas A&M University researchers have created HemaDyne, a new pump inspired by accordion bellows that can accurately replicate human blood flow patterns in organ-on-a-chip systems, enabling more realistic studies of vascular disease, drug responses and the effects of aging and spaceflight on human health.

Rice University mechanical engineers and Baylor College of Medicine neurosurgeons have identified simple changes to surgical tools that could reduce strain on the esophagus and potentially lower the risk of swallowing difficulties after neck surgery. The study, published in the Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical Materials, focuses on anterior cervical discectomy and fusion, or ACDF, a common procedure used to treat damaged or degenerating discs in the neck.
