UC Riverside-led clinical study advances molecular understanding of THS effects on skin
A new study by researchers at the University of Washington shows that losing a particular group of endangered animals
In Denmark, more and more people suffer from overweight and obesity.
New research published in Current Biology on September 13 demonstrates the importance of carrying crying infants rather than simply holding them.
Using half-sized eggs provides an avenue for childbearing in mice
About 20% of all deaths worldwide are due to severe sepsis, the poisoning of the blood by infectious microorganisms. Fungal-induced sepsis, particularly that caused by the yeast Candida albicans, is the most lethal form, accounting for 5% of all microbial sepsis deaths.
In a series of studies over more than 20 years, University of Michigan evolutionary biologist Elizabeth Tibbetts and her colleagues have demonstrated that paper wasps, despite their tiny brains, have an impressive capacity to learn, remember and make social distinctions about others.
They are hunters, farmers, harvesters, gliders, herders, weavers and carpenters.
Population genomics compares the genetic variations in DNA within and between specific biological populations, looking at the influence over time of processes like natural selection, genetic drift and other factors.
Research shows that common chronic diseases and problems associated with oral health have a detrimental and long-term reciprocal effect on each other. To achieve the best possible treatment outcomes, the general and oral health of patients should be considered as a whole.
Medical treatments that use stem cells have the potential to benefit patients facing serious diseases and injuries, but patients are not always aware that most treatments they are offered are experimental and can carry high risks, according to a report from Rice University's Baker Institute for Public Policy.
New nanoparticle shape can greatly enhance signals from multiple separate biomarkers at once, accurately detecting head and neck cancers without biopsies to improve global health
A genomic test being developed by a Charlottesville company can predict a patient’s risk of developing severe COVID-19, new research from UVA Health suggests.
Cardiovascular experts at UVA Health have found a new way to track peripheral artery disease (PAD), a serious medical condition involving atherosclerosis in the leg arteries that affects more than 200 million people worldwide.
A new discovery from the School of Medicine about how the microbes in our guts regulate the body’s biological clock could help us battle sleep disorders, combat jet lag, fight off foodborne illness and even improve chemotherapy outcomes.
Researchers from the University of Cambridge have created model embryos from mouse stem cells that form a brain, a beating heart, and the foundations of all the other organs of the body – a new avenue for recreating the first stages of life.
A new discovery from the School of Medicine has shed light on how our digestive tract, lungs and liver form, and that finding could have important implications for our understanding of cancer.
A new study proves that a single introduction of 24 rabbits shipped from England in 1859 caused the infamous invasion and argues that wild genetic traits gave these animals a devastating advantage over earlier arrivals.
With climate change, there’s been an ongoing reduction in snowpacks in mountains around the world, which leads to earlier snowmelt in the spring.
New nanoparticle shape can greatly enhance signals from multiple separate biomarkers at once, accurately detecting head and neck cancers without biopsies to improve global health
