Logical Biological and Bcell Design announce strategic partnership for engineered disease state materials
Logical Biological, biospecimen and critical raw material leader, and Bcell Design, pioneers in transgenic monoclonal antibody technology, today announced a long term strategic partnership to deliver engineered disease state materials for diagnostic and research markets.
New experimental methods show selective attention effect is exclusively cortical in humans
Research led by the University of Michigan's Kresge Hearing Research Institute and the University of Rochester illuminates the mechanisms through which humans can pick out and focus on single sounds in noisy environments.
'Good' gut microbe found to support fetal growth and reduce pregnancy risks
Research led by the University of Cambridge has found the first clear evidence that the 'good' gut bacteria Bifidobacterium breve in pregnant mothers regulates the placenta's production of hormones critical for a healthy pregnancy.
Nanotechnology breakthrough reverses Alzheimer’s disease in mice
A research team co-led by the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC) and West China Hospital Sichuan University (WCHSU), working with partners in the UK, has demonstrated a nanotechnology strategy that reverses Alzheimer's disease in mice.
Microplastics can alter the human gut microbiome, research shows
New research presented today at UEG Week 2025 shows that microplastics – plastic particles smaller than 5mm commonly found in the environment – can alter the human gut microbiome, with some changes resembling patterns linked to depression and colorectal cancer.
Artificially-sweetened and sugary drinks linked to higher risk of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease
A major new study reveals that both sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) and low- or non-sugar-sweetened beverages (LNSSBs) are significantly associated with a higher risk of developing metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD).
Harnessing AI tools for better treatment of serious mental illnesses
Serious mental illnesses (SMI) take a tremendous toll on individuals, their friends and family, and society as a whole.
Researchers discover how HIV hides in different parts of the body
Researchers at Western University and the University of Calgary have discovered how HIV hides in different parts of the body by embedding itself into the DNA of cells in a tissue-specific manner, offering new insights into why the virus is so difficult to eliminate and cure – even decades after infection and treatment.
UIC studies reveal Rise in lidocaine poisonings despite overall drop in anesthetic deaths
Over the last decade, poisonings and deaths linked to the use of local anesthetics have decreased. Even so, poisonings from one commonly used anesthetic, lidocaine, have increased in the United States, according to two new studies from the University of Illinois Chicago.
Research finds a steady rise in cardiovascular-related complications during pregnancy
Cardiovascular-related health problems may occur in as many as 1 out of every 7 pregnancies, even among people who don't already have heart disease, according to new research published today in the American Heart Association's flagship journal Circulation.
Breakthrough in RNA-targeted drug discovery offers hope against viral diseases
In a quest to develop new antiviral drugs for COVID-19 and other diseases, a collaboration led by scientists at The Wertheim UF Scripps Institute has identified a potential new drug against the virus that causes COVID-19.
DKMS advances blood cancer research with groundbreaking ASAP study
The selection of patients for allo-HSCT and the best approach to bridging patients to transplantation is continuously discussed by experts.
Paternal exercise enhances offspring endurance through sperm microRNAs
In a recent study published in Cell Metabolism, a collaborative research team led by Chen-Yu Zhang, Xi Chen, and Di-Jun Chen from Nanjing University, together with Tao Zhang from Nanjing Medical University, reported groundbreaking findings in their paper entitled "Paternal exercise confers endurance capacity to offspring through sperm microRNAs."
Milken Institute and Ann Theodore Foundation award over $2.5 million for sarcoidosis research
The Milken Institute Science Philanthropy Accelerator for Research and Collaboration (SPARC), in partnership with the Ann Theodore Foundation (ATF), today announced that the Ann Theodore Foundation Breakthrough Sarcoidosis Initiative (ATF-BSI) has awarded five grants totaling more than $2.5 million to interdisciplinary research teams.
Unfavorable patterns of heart health through young adulthood linked to increased CVD risk later in life
Despite progress in past decades to reduce the burden of cardiovascular disease (CVD), it remains the leading cause of death in the U.S. and worldwide.
$3.7 million grant supports research on perimenopause and its potential impacts on mental health
For decades, women's midlife experiences have been largely overlooked by medical research. Despite previous assumptions about midlife mental health risks, relatively little research has systematically investigated the connections between hormonal fluctuations and psychological symptoms.
Investigating cannabidiol's role in combating Alzheimer's-related neuroinflammation
Neuroinflammation damages neurons and can contribute to diseases like Alzheimer's. Cannabidiol (CBD) has anti-inflammatory properties, which suggests that it could combat neuroinflammation in Alzheimer's.
Study: Inhalers for asthma and COPD come with a steep environmental cost
Inhalers are the frontline treatment for asthma and COPD, but they come with a steep environmental cost, according to a new UCLA Health study - the largest to date quantifying inhaler-related emissions in the United States.
