A new study reveals a key mechanism by which the protein alpha-synuclein, the hallmark of Parkinson’s disease, damages neurons (brain cells) by blocking a vital cellular gateway. The results of the study, […]
Researchers at Imperial College London, the MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences (LMS), and the University of Sheffield have shown that the physical twisting of DNA plays an important role in correcting for […]
Researchers at KU Leuven have discovered that specific immune cells in the gut play a crucial role in the development of bacterial infections in liver cirrhosis. The findings help explain why patients […]
Researchers have created more than 3,800 anatomically accurate digital replicas of human hearts, revealing how age, sex and obesity influence the heart’s electrical behaviour. The technology could ultimately contribute to more personalised […]
Months after withdrawal, brain activity during decision-making remained impaired in rats For the first time, researchers demonstrated in an animal how heavy alcohol use leads to long-term behavioral issues by damaging brain […]
Scientists have discovered two genes that help melanoma cells change their shape as they move through different tissues. The finding reveals one of the tricks cancer uses to spread through the body […]
The advance makes it easier to detect circulating tumor DNA in blood samples, which could enable earlier cancer diagnosis and help guide treatment. Tumors constantly shed DNA from dying cells, which briefly […]
DNA recovered from ancient human bones and teeth has revealed a remarkable evolutionary explanation for one of modern medicine’s mysteries. Genetic variants that today increase the risk of multiple sclerosis appear to […]
Researchers from the MRC Brain Network Dynamics Unit and Oxford University’s Department of Computer Science have set out a new principle to explain how the brain adjusts connections between neurons during learning. This new insight may […]
Giving employees more control over when and how they work may do more than improve job satisfaction. It could also improve their health. A study led by researchers at the Harvard T.H. […]
Stanford Medicine scientists describe details of the human intestine and placental tissue as part of the National Institute of Health’s Human Biomolecular Atlas Program. More often than not, studies of human biology […]
The pandemic is testing our societal structures like never before. To deal with it successfully, we need to think and act collectively, led by our key institutions. But at a time when […]
Most scientists agree that stringent control measures, involving efficient contact tracing, testing and isolation, together with social distancing and mask wearing, are required to limit the spread of SARS-CoV-2. South Korea, Taiwan, China and New Zealand have all […]
