A group of international researchers led by Paola Cerrito from the University of Zurich's Department of Evolutionary Anthropology studied how such social interactions map onto brain development in common marmosets.
In a recent study led by Research and Development Engineer Tomoya Nakazawa, published in the Journal of Biomedical Optics (JBO), they conducted an in-depth theoretical analysis of the sources of errors in the metabolic-index-based method.
"We've made our protein mislocalization database available as a comprehensive resource that can be used by other researchers to expand our collective knowledge on the effects of genetic variation on human disease," said Anne Carpenter, co-principal investigator on the study and senior director of the Imaging Platform at the Broad Institute.
Team member Wouter van den Bos: 'Adolescence is a developmental period during which both reward and rejection sensitivity are particularly strong, and these have, respectively, been linked to increased impulsive behaviour and depressive symptoms.'
July 6, 2022 A group of public health experts from several universities and organizations is urging adoption of a multi-layered approach when developing policies to mitigate the impact of gas and oil production ...
“As [the study] authors state, it is still very rare in developed countries, especially here in the USA, as many foods and supplements contain enough [vitamin C] to prevent this disease from re-emerging,” Strange told The Post.
U.S. babies died at a higher rate in the months following the Supreme Court's 2022 Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health decision, and infant mortality was highest among those born with chromosomal or genetic abnormalities, new research has found.
Nov. 17, 2023 Researchers have identified a protein key to the development of a type of brain cell believed to play a role in disorders like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases and used the discovery to grow the ...
“She was hitting all of her milestones, and then suddenly she experienced a really steep regression — her abilities sort of fell like an avalanche off the cliff, and it was terrifying,” Golden Whitrod, Tallulah Moon’s mother, told Fox News Digital during an on-camera interview.
They discovered twelve unusual chemical structures belonging to a previously unknown class of compounds: terpene-nonadride heterodimers, molecules made from one terpene and one nonadride unit.
After Hurricane Helene roared across the state, causing historic flooding, downing trees, snapping power lines, decimating water infrastructure, and leading to the deaths of at least 72 people in Buncombe County alone, communities are still shaking off the shock of a storm they never thought could touch these mountains.
Scientists analyzed the brains of 84 people, and the results, published in Nature Neuroscience, suggest that damage to one type of cell, called an inhibitory neuron, during the early phase may trigger the neural circuit problems that underlie the disease.
The participants were scanned using resting state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to record whole-brain connectivity, rather than focusing on specific regions as was done in previous bilingualism studies.
A research team from Kyushu University in Japan has recently discovered a calcium-based mechanism that plays a key role in the disposal of dead cells, shedding light on how our bodies protect themselves from injury and disease.
Feb. 11, 2021 A new largescale genetic analysis has found biological mechanisms that contribute to making people more susceptible to muscle weakness in later life, finding that diseases such as osteoarthritis and ...
Dr. Ken Iida and Specially Appointed Professor Yusuke Hashimoto's team at Osaka Metropolitan University's Graduate School of Medicine analyzed the incidence of post-surgery osteochondritis dissecans.
Then, when we added loss of the p53 oncogene, the mice developed bona fide invasive prostate cancer," said senior author Arul M. Chinnaiyan, M.D., Ph.D., director of the Michigan Center for Translational Pathology and S.P.
Over the last 20 years, researchers have tried to eliminate ethnic and racial inequities in the renal transplantation care continuum, including addressing gaps in knowledge and introducing the 2014 Kidney Allocation System.
"When we started out, we thought that we might see a delayed effect of tropical cyclones on mortality maybe for six months or a year, similar to heat waves," said Young, a postdoctoral scholar at the University of California Berkeley, where she began working on the study as a master's student in Hsiang's lab before he joined Stanford's faculty in July 2024.
Now a new study shows how low levels of antibodies to the fatty substance phosphorylcholine, called anti-PC, may be a new independent risk marker for cardiovascular disease in older women.
Researchers previously found loss of the CDK12 gene in about 7% of patients with metastatic prostate cancer, suggesting this alteration may be linked to a more-aggressive form of the disease.
These factors not only increase the risk for cardiovascular disease but also for back pain," says Doctoral Researcher and Physiotherapist Jooa Norha from the University of Turku in Finland.
The study examined SARS-CoV-2 spike antigen-specific antibody-secreting cells (ASCs) in several bone marrow compartments in a cohort of 19 individuals up to three years following COVID-19 mRNA vaccination.
New York City plastic surgeon Dr. David Shafer, who augments penises with filler that have “an antidote to ‘melt’ the product if needed,” said he has performed more than 7,000 girth-enhancing procedures in the last seven years, mostly without a hitch.
