Medical Xpress / Sleepy mice forget who they have met, but an asthma drug brings it all back
Anyone who has had a bad night knows that they can feel "foggy" the next day. This fogginess may extend to our memory: remembering where we went, who we met or what happened during the encounter. Neuroscientist Robbert Havekes ...
Phys.org / Why cells started sticking together could help explain how animals first evolved
A recent study by Ruibao Li and Jennah Dharamshi published in Nature may help us understand the beginnings of animal evolution billions of years ago. These findings are the result of a collaboration among researchers at Indiana ...
Medical Xpress / Researchers identify brain 'entrapment' patterns associated with depression
Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have identified distinctive patterns in how the brain transitions between activity states in people with depression, providing new insight into why depressive symptoms ...
Medical Xpress / GLP-1s tied to elevated risk of fainting, dizziness
Northwestern Medicine scientists have identified a safety concern associated with GLP-1 drugs. Using health record data, the research team tracked more than 42,000 adults already taking at least two types of blood pressure ...
Phys.org / CO₂ injection reveals hidden cement chemistry behind 13% stronger early strength
One September day, it started to snow inside MIT's Pierce Laboratory. Researchers depressurized a tank of liquid carbon dioxide (CO2), instantly freezing it and releasing solid flakes. These were blended into cement paste ...
Tech Xplore / New water-based material could store solar energy, power reactions in darkness, then recharge
Northwestern University scientists have developed a new liquid material that charges like a battery, transforms like a living organism and then resets itself in open air. Traditionally, harvesting energy, storing it and using ...
Phys.org / Silent prions reveal new cross-species chronic wasting disease risk in lab tests
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is generally associated with animals. But a new study by researchers from the University of Calgary and international collaborators explored the potential for CWD to spread from deer, elk and ...
Medical Xpress / End-of-life care metric tracks how time grows more valuable for terminal cancer patients
A research team at Lund University in Sweden has studied how patients with advanced cancer seek care during the final stages of their lives. By studying their care patterns, the research team has developed a measurement method ...
Medical Xpress / Diabetes substantially increases mortality risk for organ transplant recipients, analysis reveals
People with an organ transplant who develop or have existing diabetes are more likely to die than those without diabetes, according to a comprehensive analysis of solid-organ transplant recipients presented at ENDO 2026, ...
Phys.org / Prescribed fires can cut smoke pollution for years, miles beyond burn areas
A new study finds that burning 500,000 acres (202,000 hectares) of California conifer forests each year with prescribed fire could cut deadly pollution from wildfire smoke by roughly 10% over a decade.
Medical Xpress / Key mechanism regulating the anti-inflammatory function of extracellular vesicles identified
A study led by the Innovation in Vesicles and Cells for Application in Therapy (IVECAT) group at the Germans Trias i Pujol Research Institute (IGTP) has identified a key mechanism regulating the anti-inflammatory function ...
