In 1982, the RAS genes HRAS and KRAS were discovered as the first human cancer genes, with KRAS later identified as one of the most frequently mutated oncogenes. Yet, it took nearly 40 years to develop clinically effective inhibitors for RAS-mutant cancers. The discovery in 2013 by Shokat and colleagues of a druggable pocket in KRAS paved the way to FDA approval of the first covalently binding KRAS inhibitors, sotorasib and adagrasib, in 2021 and 2022, respectively.

Food contamination poses serious health risks, compelling the discovery of new methods to guarantee regulatory compliance and build consumer conviction. Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) has come into sight as a sophisticated approach for the ultrasensitive discovery of toxins in food and water, proposing non-destructive, quick, and precise analysis. Instantaneously, quantum dots (QDs) are astonishing nanomaterials, characterized by distinctive attributes such as quantum confinement and optical photostability.

While the SARS-CoV-2 vaccine offers 70%-95% protection effectiveness against Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), a portion of recipients do not produce adequate protective immune responses, particularly, neutralizing antibodies (nAbs). Previous studies of COVID-19 patients have identified several public antibody lineages, such as IGHV3-30, IGHV3-33, IGHV3-53, IGHV1-58, and IGHV1-24. However, it remains unclear how these public antibodies evolve during vaccination or whether there are any special antibody lineages correlated with SARS-CoV-2 vaccination.

Personalized medicine and drug discovery are different, yet overlapping, fields, and information from each field is exchanged to improve the other. The current methods used for devising personalized therapeutic plans and developing drug discovery applications are costly, time-consuming, and complex; thus, their applicability is limited in both fields. However, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) offers potential solutions to current challenges.
