Brigham & Women’s Hospital (BWH) is researching the connection between biomarkers and an individual’s resilience—how well one recovers from stressors such as disease or surgery. The study focuses on patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) surgery, tracking their recovery through the use of Galaxy Watch.We reviewed the previous-gen Galaxy Watch 6, and in July, Samsung launched a new BioActive Sensor to help with preventative wellness alongside its new Galaxy Watch 7 […]

The beauty and skincare industry has long been under scrutiny for using potentially harmful chemicals and preservatives in cosmetic products. Many brands rely on these additives to extend shelf life and stabilize their formulations. However, growing consumer awareness about skin health and toxic ingredients has led to a shift in demand for safer, more personalized products.
