Environmental pollution is accelerating as manufacturing, industry, and daily life expand, and one stubborn contributor is volatile organic compounds (VOCs). These gases can harm human...
Scientists have long known the brain keeps refining itself after the teenage years, but the biological “why” has been hard to pinpoint. In a new...
Advanced colorectal cancer remains one of oncology’s toughest challenges, especially in pathological T4 (pT4) disease where outcomes are often grim. A new study now points...
Television has long been blamed for sedentary habits and “brain rot.” Now a new brain-imaging study suggests the story may be more nuanced—and potentially more...
The National Eye Institute of the National Institutes of Health has awarded Mingquan Lin, PhD—an assistant professor in the Division of Computational Health Sciences at...
High entropy alloys have emerged as a powerful materials platform, built from multiple principal elements in a single system. Among them, multi-principal element amorphous alloys...
Flower color is often treated like an aesthetic detail, but new research shows it can be the product of intense evolutionary fine-tuning. In snapdragons, subtle...
In a discovery that could reshape how scientists think about plant development, researchers report that the spatial “zoning” patterns emerging along growing roots do not...
A new study uncovers how fibroblasts resist being converted into functional heart cells, pinpointing sulfotransferase signaling as a molecular brake on therapeutic cardiac reprogramming. Published...
The future of pediatric gene therapy is being reshaped by a three-way convergence: CRISPR–Cas9 genome editing, artificial intelligence (AI), and personalized medicine. Together, these approaches...
A new study reported in the journal BMC Geriatrics is drawing attention to how aging, multimorbidity, and diet-derived compounds can converge on blood clotting pathways....
Lithium metal is considered the ultimate anode candidate for next-generation rechargeable batteries because it offers far higher energy density than graphite. Yet widespread adoption remains...
A simple blood test may soon help clinicians manage metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) more precisely, according to a study appearing in the July issue...
Lead is a highly toxic, long-lived metal that can accumulate in ecosystems and human tissues. Because even trace levels can threaten health, sensitive monitoring in...
Pediatricians trained through a collaborative mental health program at Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago were more likely to recognize and treat...
