New 'Smart' Insulin Auto-Regulates Blood Sugar Levels
- Scientists have developed a new form of 'smart' insulin that can self-regulate based on blood glucose levels. - This insulin effectively reduces high blood-sugar concentrations and prevents them from dropping too low, a condition known as hypoglycaemia. - The insulin molecule, named NNC2215, was tested in pigs and rats and found to be as effective as normal human insulin. - The molecule is the first insulin shown to target glucose, and further research is ongoing to optimize it. - Several other smart insulin drugs are being developed, aiming to individualize therapies for diabetes patients.

AI Cracks the Code of Smell: A New Era in Olfactory Science
- Wiltschko's team at Osmo created a unique molecule, 533, to digitize smell, revealing the complexity of predicting odors from chemical structures. - AI models are now mapping smells, outperforming human noses in predicting odor types, though human expertise remains crucial. - Scientists have begun deciphering olfactory receptors, but understanding how the brain processes these signals remains elusive. - The goal is to develop digital smell sensors as effective as biological noses, potentially revolutionizing health diagnostics and safety.
