By making the microbes more tolerant to toxic byproducts, researchers show they can use a wider range of feedstocks, beyond corn.
With our diverse training, theoretical and empirical toolkits, and rich data, evolutionary and biological anthropologists (EBAs) have much to contribute to research and policy decisions about climate change and other pressing social issues.
New research by YSE Professor Kenneth Gillingham found that the recent increase in electric vehicle adoption is due largely to technological improvements such as increased battery range and faster charging.

VIKINGS For the first time, researchers from the University of Copenhagen have found 'smoking gun' evidence that Denmark participated in international fur trading in the Viking Age. Fur was an international status symbol for the elite, says researcher behind the study
A new study led by Yale Cancer Center shows improved rates of survival and reduced risk of recurrence in patients with non-small cell lung cancer taking osimertinib (TAGRISSO), a targeted therapy, following surgery.
First experimental evidence of spin excitations in an atomically thin material helps answer 30-year-old questions, could lead to better medical diagnostics and more.
The increasingly prohibitive cost of prescription medications continues to pose major challenges to the U.S. health care system, leading to poor medication adherence, suboptimal clinical outcomes, and the ever-growing costs of care.
PROTEIN Loss of muscle mass presents a challenge especially among hospitalized elderly. It complicates treatment, rehabilitation and may result in reduced quality of life after bring discharged. However, researchers from the University of Copenhagen have recently identified a protein that the body uses to generate muscle mass and have even succeeded in artificially triggering it.
The results open possibilities for studying gravity’s effects on relatively large objects in quantum states.
A new study led by George Goshua, MD, MSc, assistant professor of medicine (hematology), examines the cost effectiveness of gene therapy against standard-of-care treatment for patients with sickle cell disease (SCD), using both conventional cost-effective analysis (CEA) and distributional cost-effective analysis (DCEA) methodology, an approach that takes health equity into quantitative consideration.
A recent study in JAMA Network Open found that fewer than 1 in 4 people with or at risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD) use wearable devices, and only half of those who wear them do so consistently.
Researchers at Lund University in Sweden can now show that a new examination method identifies high-risk plaques in the blood vessels surrounding the heart, that cannot be seen solely with traditional angiograms
Long life is common among bird parents that get help with childcare.
In recent years, therapeutic antibodies have transformed the treatment of cancer and autoimmune diseases.
As odd as it sounds, many scientists have attempted to place extremely small diamonds inside living cells.
Researchers at Lund University have designed a new bioink which allows small human-sized airways to be 3D-bioprinted with the help of patient cells for the first time
A new study reveals a diminished response to nutrients among people with obesity — and that this brain response is not recovered after weight loss.
A Yale Medicine neurologist explains cluster headache and how it differs from migraine and tension-type headaches.
A new Yale-led study finds that liver fibrosis is associated with reduced cognitive function and brain volume, a link mediated, in part, by inflammation.
