Taiwan’s Top Four Research Institutions Join Forces! Discovers Blood Biomarkers for Migraine Diagnosis
Despite affecting over one billion people worldwide, migraines have long been considered an “invisible disease”—difficult to diagnose and often misunderstood. Diagnosis has relied solely on patients ‘ subjective descriptions with no apparent abnormalities on brain scans and no objective biomarkers. In a breakthrough, a Taiwanese research team has identified specific
NYCU and Harvard Uncover Genetic ‘Brake’ That Limits Liver Regeneration
In a groundbreaking study published in the prestigious journal Cell Stem Cell, researchers from National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University (NYCU) and Harvard University have identified a critical gene that functions as a molecular “brake”—suppressing the liver’s innate ability to regenerate damaged tissue. The discovery may pave the way for innovative
NYCU and NTUCH Develop Groundbreaking Diagnostic Pipeline to Predict Severity of Rare FOXG1 Syndrome
At the heart of every expecting parent lies a hope—to detect and address any health challenges their child may face as early as possible. Now, a pioneering collaboration between National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University (NYCU) and National Taiwan University Children’s Hospital (NTUCH) has taken a significant step toward that
NYCU and German Team Develop Light-Activated Nanopores for Smart Materials and Security Tech
Imagine flipping a molecular switch using nothing but light. A groundbreaking study led by Professor Jiun-Tai Chen from the Department of Applied Chemistry at National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University (NYCU), in collaboration with Professor Patrick Théato from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) in Germany, has unveiled a novel
MAFLD Does More Than Harm the Liver: NYCU Study Shows 46% Spike in Heart Attack Risk
Forget what you thought you knew about fatty liver disease. It’s not just a concern for your liver; it’s intricately tied to your heart health. A groundbreaking study led by Professor Mei-Hsuan Lee of National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University (NYCU)’s Institute of Clinical Medicine has, for the first time,
Innovation Ignites Brilliance at the 2025 NYCU College of Medicine Academic Symposium
At the vibrant intersection of medicine and innovation, sparks of brilliance were set ablaze during the 2025 NYCU Medicine Symposium, hosted by the College of Medicine and primarily organized by Associate Dean Professor Yi-Hsuan Lee. Held at the Medical Building on the Yangming Campus, the event brought together 145 guests,
