Medical Xpress / Retinal cell subgroups may unlock more effective transplants for blindness
A new understanding of retinal cell development may help pave the way for future retina transplants, which could restore sight to people whose conditions currently have no effective treatments, according to researchers at ...
Phys.org / 'Selection shadow' may explain why longer lives bring more age-related disease
A review article now published in Nature Reviews Genetics brings together evolutionary theory, comparative genomics and large-scale human genetics to explain why we age and why aging rates differ among individuals and species. ...
Medical Xpress / Single high dose of psilocybin temporarily restores lost abilities in an 80-year-old Alzheimer's patient
Psilocybin is a naturally occurring psychoactive compound found in mushrooms of the Psilocybe genus. These mushrooms may have existed on Earth for nearly 65 million years, dating to the asteroid impact that caused the dinosaurs' ...
Phys.org / Brains update sensory predictions through single timing hub, electric fish study finds
In the split second after you hear a noise, your brain is already making a potentially life-or-death deduction: Did I do that, or did something else? Our nervous systems answer this question using something called corollary ...
Phys.org / Carbon dioxide unlocks safer oxidation chemistry under room-temperature conditions
Oxidation reactions are indispensable to the chemical industry, but from a process safety perspective, they are among the most challenging transformations. A research team at the University of Bayreuth, working in collaboration ...
