A new review in the Journal of Pharmaceutical Investigation presents lipid excipients as far more than passive ingredients used to fill capsules or improve tablet...

USC researchers have developed an artificial intelligence system that creates detailed maps showing how individual regions of the human brain appear to age. Unlike conventional...

Mayo Clinic researchers have identified a molecular mechanism that enables cancer cells and disease-causing pathogens to weaken T-cell responses, potentially explaining why immune defenses fail...

The U.S. Department of Energy has selected North Carolina State University to lead three projects designed to use artificial intelligence to accelerate discovery across high-performance...

Heart disease has long been framed as a problem of later life, but a new study from McGill University suggests that this assumption may leave...

Virginia Tech researchers have taken pollen surveillance beyond the field and into the atmosphere, developing a method to measure and predict how genetically engineered switchgrass...

Butterflies are often treated as symbols of beauty, but their ecological importance is far more consequential. Because they respond quickly to changes in vegetation, temperature,...

Inflammatory cell death has long presented researchers with a difficult therapeutic paradox: the molecular machinery that eliminates infected or damaged cells can also drive severe...

Intensive use of anthelmintic drugs is reshaping parasite populations in cattle, and a new study from Argentina has captured that evolutionary process in unprecedented genetic...

Obesity risk is written in more than one language. Part of the story is encoded in DNA, where hundreds of genetic loci have been linked...

A plant’s first steps into a new habitat can leave a molecular footprint far deeper than scientists once imagined. A study published in Nature Plants...

A New Two-Photon Holographic Mesoscope Opens a Window on How Brain Regions Compute Together For decades, neuroscience has been exceptionally good at observing individual neurons...

Li, G., Maeyens, L.T., Yin, J. and colleagues have identified a previously underappreciated connection between a liver protein called ABHD6 and the Akt–FoxO1 signaling axis,...

For decades, crop breeding has focused on the visible organism: larger seeds, stronger stems, faster growth, resistance to pathogens and improved tolerance to drought or...

A child’s heartbeat can reveal a great deal long before a scan or blood test does. Yet the traditional tool for detecting cardiac abnormalities—the stethoscope—depends...
