  • Vision impairment is associated with mortality 2021-03-06
    A meta-analysis finds that vision impairment and blindness are tied to an increased risk of mortality, prompting the need to address global eye health disparities.
  • Physics camp has proven benefits for high school girls 2021-03-06
    Studies show that engaging high school girls in physics before they begin formal studies gives them an edge, and helping K-12 teachers incorporate engineering concepts in the classroom boosts their students -- and themselves.
  • New potential for functional recovery after spinal cord injury 2021-03-05
    Researchers have successfully reprogrammed a glial cell type in the central nervous system into new neurons to promote recovery after spinal cord injury -- revealing an untapped potential to leverage the cell for regenerative medicine.
  • Uncovering hidden forever chemicals 2021-03-05
    Researchers found large quantities of previously undetectable compounds from the family of chemicals known as PFAS in six watersheds on Cape Cod using a new method to quantify and identify PFAS compounds. Exposures to some PFAS, widely used for their ability to repel heat, water, and oil, are linked to a range of health risks […]
  • Novel urine test developed to diagnose human kidney transplant rejection 2021-03-05
    Investigators proposes a new, noninvasive way to test for transplant rejection using exosomes -- tiny vesicles containing mRNA -- from urine samples.
  • How does your brain process emotions? Answer could help address loneliness epidemic 2021-03-05
    New research finds that specific regions of the brain respond to emotional stimuli related to loneliness and wisdom in opposing ways.
  • After old age, intellectual disability is greatest risk factor for death from COVID-19, study finds 2021-03-05
    A study of national data shows the devastating impact the pandemic has had on those with intellectual disabilities and their caregivers.
  • The gut mycobiome influences the metabolism of processed foods 2021-03-05
    Studies of the microbiome in the human gut have largely overlooked non-bacterial microbes: viruses, protists, archaea and fungi. Now research in mice points to a significant role for fungi, called the mycobiome, in the intestine.
  • Controlling adhesions in the abdomen 2021-03-05
    Adhesions are scars in the abdomen, which can occur after surgery, often have serious consequences. Now, researchers have discovered how such adhesions form. The findings may help to develop a drug to prevent adhesions in the future.
  • New method facilitates development of antibody-based drugs 2021-03-05
    In recent years, therapeutic antibodies have transformed the treatment of cancer and autoimmune diseases. Now, researchers have developed a new, efficient method based on the genetic scissors CRISPR-Cas9, that facilitates antibody development.
  • Antibiotic-resistant strains of staph bacteria may be spreading between pigs raised in factory farms 2021-03-05
    DNA sequencing of bacteria found in pigs and humans in rural eastern North Carolina, an area with concentrated industrial-scale pig-farming, suggests that multidrug-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strains are spreading between pigs, farmworkers, their families and community residents, and represents an emerging public health threat, according to a new study.
  • Research identifies impact of teenage screen use 2021-03-05
    Two thirds of children use more than one screen at the same time after school, in the evenings and at weekends as part of increasingly sedentary lifestyles, according to new research.
  • Walking pace among cancer survivors may be important for survival 2021-03-05
    A new study finds a possible link between slow walking pace and an increased risk of death among cancer survivors. The researchers say more work is needed to see if physical activity programs or other interventions could help cancer survivors improve their ability to walk and perhaps increase survival after a cancer diagnosis.
  • Study finds no link between gender and physics course performance 2021-03-05
    A new data-driven study casts serious doubt on the stereotype that male students perform better than female students in science -- specifically, physics.
  • Beauty is in the brain: AI reads brain data, generates personally attractive images 2021-03-05
    Researchers have succeeded in making an AI understand our subjective notions of what makes faces attractive. The device demonstrated this knowledge by its ability to create new portraits on its own that were tailored to be found personally attractive to individuals. The results can be utilized, for example, in modelling preferences and decision-making as well […]
  • Tracking proteins in the heart of cells 2021-03-05
    The cell must provide its various organelles with all the energy elements they need, which are formed in the Golgi apparatus. But how do the proteins that carry these cargoes - the kinesins - find their way within the cell's ''road network'' to deliver them at the right place? Researchers have discovered a fluorescent chemical […]
  • Fine particulate matter from wildfire smoke more harmful than pollution from other sources 2021-03-05
    Researchers examining 14 years of hospital admissions data conclude that the fine particles in wildfire smoke can be several times more harmful to human respiratory health than particulate matter from other sources such as car exhaust. While this distinction has been previously identified in laboratory experiments, the new study confirms it at the population level.
  • New way to halt excessive inflammation 2021-03-05
    Researchers have discovered a new way to 'put the brakes' on excessive inflammation by regulating a type of white blood cell that is critical for our immune system.
  • Team of bioethicists and scientists suggests revisiting 14-day limit on human embryo 2021-03-04
    An international team of bioethicists and scientists contends it may be justified to go beyond the standing 14-day limit that restricts how long researchers can study human embryos in a dish. Going beyond this policy limit could lead to potential health and fertility benefits, and the authors provide a process for doing so.
  • Why we're so bad at daydreaming, and how to fix it 2021-03-04
    We don't intuitively understand how to think enjoyable thoughts. But when researchers provided participants with a list of examples that were pleasant and meaningful, they enjoyed thinking 50% more than when they were instructed to think about whatever they wanted.
