Virginia Tech researchers have uncovered new evidence that black bear hibernation is governed by a complex interaction between temperature, daylight, and the animals’ internal physiological...
Malaria parasites do not invade red blood cells by force alone. They use a carefully coordinated molecular system that allows the invasive stage of Plasmodium...
A new study argues that direct air capture could do more than remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere: in the right combination with renewable energy...
Sepsis can turn the immune system’s emergency response into a source of widespread tissue damage. When infection triggers an uncontrolled inflammatory cascade, the lungs are...
Neonatal encephalopathy has long been treated as a condition that can be sorted into neat clinical categories: mild, moderate or severe. A new perspective in...
Biomedical engineering is entering a period of extraordinary scientific opportunity—and equally extraordinary educational pressure. At the 2025 Annual Conference of the American Society for Engineering...
A nationwide survey has brought renewed attention to the hidden costs of living with a left ventricular assist device, or LVAD, revealing how long-term home...
A correction to the article “Towards an Improved Understanding of the Actuation-Inhalation Coordination in Ventilated Patients Using an Automated Metered Dosage Inhaler (MDI) Delivery System”...
Nimodipine is a drug with a frustrating contradiction at its core. It can be highly effective in relaxing blood vessels and improving cerebral blood flow,...
A new three-dimensional view of intact ovaries is offering scientists a more complete picture of how the ovarian reserve changes with age, challenging the idea...
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a fast-moving blood cancer in which immature myeloid cells accumulate in the bone marrow and crowd out the normal cells...
A previously underappreciated protein in the cells lining blood vessels may hold the key to how the brain builds and maintains its protective vascular system....
A reaction long regarded as one of synthetic chemistry’s most stubborn challenges has moved closer to practical use. In a study published in Nature Catalysis,...
A previously unrecognized layer of genome organization has been identified in the mammalian brain, where exceptionally long genes and the enormous enhancers that regulate them...
Scientists have identified a molecular organizer that helps connect distant regulatory regions of the genome with the genes they control, solving a longstanding question about...
