Scientists including MIT’s Jacqueline Hewitt and Nicholas Kern share long-awaited results, getting closer to the universe’s first stars.
Single-cell gene expression analyses of human cerebrovascular cells can help reveal new drug targets for Huntington’s disease.
A recent study led by researchers from the University of Antwerp, the Institute of Vertebrate Biology (IVB) of the Czech Academy of Sciences and the Sokoine University of Agriculture in Morogoro screened 1225 rodents and shrews in Tanzania for mammarenavirus RNA, revealing mammarenaviruses might be even more specific than usually thought. The researchers associate taxa below the species level rather than rodent species with certain mammarenaviruses. Host genetic structure may thus be crucial to understand in which rodent reservoirs in which geographic regions we can expect to find them.
A new deep-learning algorithm trained to optimize doses of propofol to maintain unconsciousness during general anesthesia could augment patient monitoring.
