Originally Published 1 year ago — by Global Times

Chinese researchers at Fudan University have successfully revived a human brain that was frozen for 18 months using a new cryopreservation method called MEDY. This breakthrough, published in Cell Reports Methods, preserves neural cell functionality and structural integrity, potentially revolutionizing research into neurological disorders and future human cryopreservation. The achievement has sparked significant interest and discussion about the future possibilities of cryonics.

Pregnant Women Warned About Traditional Chinese Medicine by Health Experts.

Originally Published 2 years ago — by Daily Mail

Pregnant women who undergo traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) treatments may be putting their babies at risk of birth defects, according to a study by researchers from Fudan University in Shanghai. The study involved 16,000 women across 12 provinces in China, with babies born to women who underwent TCM treatments while pregnant found to be twice as likely to have birth defects compared to mothers who did not. The study's authors urged expectant mothers to use TCM therapies "cautiously" due to the "significant risk of foetal malformations" associated with the alternative practice.
