Why GLP-1 Drugs Work Like Magic for Some — and Barely Work at All for Others

Why GLP-1 Drugs Work Like Magic for Some — and Barely Work at All for Others

drug response heterogeneity endocrinology GLP-1 drugs hormone replacement therapy obesity treatment personalized medicine precision medicine weight loss drugs

Posted on 26 September, 2026 by Mehrdad Fathi

The GLP-1 drugs — semaglutide, tirzepatide, and their pharmaceutical cousins — have been called transformative. Clinical trials show that most people taking them lose an average of 25% of their body weight. Real-world results follow a similar arc. But 10 to 15% of users see minimal or no weight loss at all. Daniel Drucker, an endocrinologist at the University of Toronto whose research contributed to the development of these medications, describes the situation plainly: “There is...
The Underground Hydrogen Rush: A Cheap Green Fuel or Just a Pipe Dream?

The Underground Hydrogen Rush: A Cheap Green Fuel or Just a Pipe Dream?

Posted on 20 September, 2026 by Mehrdad Fathi

For most of the past century, the idea that hydrogen gas could be sitting underground in commercially viable deposits simply did not register as a possibility worth entertaining. Geologists knew the Earth produces hydrogen constantly through reactions between iron-rich rock and water, and through the splitting of water molecules by radioactive decay. They also knew that microbes eat it, that geochemical reactions consume it, and that its molecules are small enough to slip through rock...

Posted on 19 September, 2026 by Mehrdad Fathi

Drug discovery has always been a numbers game. The more hypotheses you can generate and test, the better your odds of finding something that works. What happens when you remove the practical ceiling on how many scientists can work a problem simultaneously? A team at Stanford University, led by computer scientist James Zou, has spent the past year building an answer. They call it the Virtual Biotech — an artificial-intelligence system that replicates the organizational structure of a drug...

When Emily Aguilar-Pine drove 2,500 kilometres from Montana to Texas in June 2026, she had a small bottle of liquid riding with her in the back of her mother’s SUV. The label read “hopes and dreams.” Inside was a living culture of an Asgard archaeon — arguably one of the most scientifically precious microbes on the planet. It slept in hotel rooms with her. She never let it out of sight. That kind of devotion is not unusual in this field. Researchers who work with Asgard archaea speak...

Broken Bones, Modified Cells: A Small Trial With Large Implications

Posted on 15 September, 2026 by Mehrdad Fathi

Osteoporosis is one of the most common conditions in aging medicine, and one of the most consequential. Affecting an estimated 200 million women worldwide, it progressively weakens bone architecture until fractures become almost routine — after a stumble, a cough, a minor fall. Existing drug therapies slow that deterioration, but they do not rebuild what has been lost. A small clinical trial published today in Cell suggests that a one-time infusion of modified bone-marrow cells may do...
