New research presented today at UEG Week 2025 shows that microplastics – plastic particles smaller than 5mm commonly found in the environment – can alter the human gut microbiome, with some changes resembling patterns linked to depression and colorectal cancer.
Shimon Sakaguchi is honored for his revolutionary discovery of regulatory T cells—revealing how “immune tolerance” impacts autoimmune diseases, cancer and more.

accounts for approximately one-quarter of all lung cancers, but therapeutic options for LUSC remain limited, primarily due to the absence of well-defined, targetable molecular alterations. Therefore, histopathologic features are increasingly being explored as tools to enhance prognostic accuracy and guide treatment decisions.
