Vector-Based Olfactory Navigation Strategy Revealed in Drosophila Flies
Flies hunting airborne odor plumes do more than follow scent—they “edge track,” repeatedly steering along the moving boundary between odor and no-odor. In a new...

Chemical distance model may predict which trace elements plants absorb
Simple chemical cues may soon help scientists predict which trace elements are most likely to enter plants from contaminated soils. In a new study published...
Study uncovers how blood cancers evade BTK-targeted therapies
Scientists from Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center at the University of Miami have identified a rare mutation that can make certain blood cancers resistant to nearly...
Primary Care Doctors Compare Tradeoffs Between Salaried Employment and Private Practice
A new qualitative study published in The Annals of Family Medicine spotlights how day-to-day practice differs between U.S. primary care physicians working for health systems...
Advanced Simulations Reveal New Insights Into Proton Transport in Water
International quantum simulations are giving a rare, full-resolution view of how a hydrated proton moves through water. Led by researchers at Heidelberg University’s Institute for...
Rapid path to antibiotic resistance accelerates spread and treatment failures
Antibiotic resistance is evolving faster than many treatment pipelines can keep up with, largely because bacteria can acquire survival traits under drug pressure in surprisingly...
Columbia’s PROGRESS Study Lays Out Methods for Genetic Risk in Autism
Columbia University’s new Prospective Genetic Risk Evaluation and Assessment (PROGRESS) effort aims to change how genetic risk is handled for autism—moving from retrospective guessing toward...
Timing Transcatheter Closure of Hemodynamically Significant Patent Ductus in Preterm Infants
Transcatheter closure of a hemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus (hsPDA) is increasingly used as the definitive way to stop abnormal blood flow in very preterm...
Saitama University Reveals How Ductile Tunnel Supports Withstand Simulated Squeezing Ground Pressure
Mountain tunnels built in weak ground can experience severe inward convergence, known as squeezing ground. As the surrounding rock deforms, conventional tunnel supports may crack...
Sylvester Researcher Wins Gabrielle’s Angel Foundation Grant for Neuropathy Study
Marlon L. Wong, P.T., Ph.D., an associate professor of clinical physical therapy at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, has received a three-year,...

Long-Term Care With Family Physicians Reduces Urgent Hospital Admissions, Costs
A large retrospective cohort study has linked long-term continuity in primary care with fewer urgent hospital admissions and lower healthcare spending. Researchers analyzed longitudinal data...
Study Finds Casdatifan Produces Durable Tumor Responses in Advanced Kidney Cancer
A new multi-center Phase 1 study is testing casdatifan, an investigational oral therapy designed to inhibit hypoxia-inducible factor-2 alpha (HIF-2α), a transcription factor that helps...
CRISPR-Cas Controls Expression of Integrated Anti-Phage Defense Genes
Bacteria face relentless pressure from bacteriophages, yet their protective arsenals include many partially independent defense modules. A central question has been how these modules coordinate...
Cryo-EM Reveals Biopsy-Derived TTR Fibril Structures in Hereditary Amyloidosis
Hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis (hATTR) is driven by the misfolding of transthyretin (TTR), a transport protein whose fragments assemble into toxic amyloid fibrils. In patients, these...
