The projects range from art, literature and history to the emerging subfields of climate change and sound studies, as well as cutting-edge areas such as Afrolatinidades and archival studies.
Summer learning initiative kicks off June 27
Many of the settlement activities were documented in the Hull-House Bulletins
University of Illinois Chicago's Institute for Research on Race and Public Policy identifies 475,106 erroneous tickets in nearly six-year span
Two researchers are warning against national strategies for a “new normal” of life with COVID-19, because they focus too much on the SARS-CoV-2 virus and too little on the context in which the virus’ impact is most burdensome -- the synergistic endemic, or syndemic, of COVID-19 and the chronic disease crisis. incorporate important lessons from the first two years of the COVID-19 pandemic: the significant role of noncommunicable chronic diseases in exacerbating COVID-19 and the disproportionate burden of COVID-19 on underserved populations and communities of color.
Gene editing may be a potential treatment for anxiety and alcohol use disorder in adults who were exposed to binge drinking in their adolescence, according to the results of an animal study published in the journal Science Advances. The researchers used a gene-editing tool called CRISPR-dCas9 in their experiments to manipulate the histone acetylation and methylation processes at the Arc gene in models of adult rats.
Median audit times for municipal bond issuers have generally been increasing since 2009
Vaccination policy, vaccine hesitancy and post-vaccination symptoms and effects among top topics tweeted
The Lloyd A. Fry Foundation supports organizations with the strength and commitment to address persistent problems of urban Chicago resulting from poverty, violence, ignorance and despair.
Silica exposure is a driving force behind rising rates of coal workers' pneumoconiosis, according to a new study that compared the pathology and mineralogy of the disease across generations. It is the first study to offer scientific evidence explaining why progressive massive fibrosis, the most severe form of black lung disease, is occurring more frequently and among younger coal workers in West Virginia, Virginia and Kentucky.
A research review into molecular insights of a licorice-derived substance called glycyrrhizin for preventing or treating cancer suggests further research could lead to specific agents for clinical use.
Using a protein nanoparticle they designed, scientists at the University of Illinois Chicago have identified two distinct subtypes of neutrophils and found that one of the subtypes can be used as a drug target for inflammatory diseases.
Scientists have developed a treatment for pulmonary fibrosis by using nanoparticles coated in mannose — a type of sugar — to stop a population of lung cells called macrophages that contribute to lung tissue scarring. The cell-targeting method holds promise for preventing this severe lung scarring disease, which can result in life-threatening complications like shortness of breath.
Researchers have developed an extensive family of more than 80 anti-freezing coatings, which can be applied to industrial surfaces as a longer-lasting alternative to conventional deicers.
New cell-laden bioink, comprised of tightly-packed, flake-shaped microgels and living cells, enables the production of cell-rich 4D bioconstructs that can change shape under physiological conditions.
A team researchers is projected to receive approximately $22 million from the NIH over four years to research long COVID-19. The emerging health condition causes many COVID-19 patients, even those who were not hospitalized, to have continued and new symptoms months after their initial illness.
Engineers have developed a material that could give fuel cell systems a competitive edge over the battery systems that currently power most electric vehicles.
Overall, UIC had 14 programs in the top 30 in the country
Findings suggest Incas had a different name for the site
Researchers at the University of Illinois Chicago are looking at the possibility that gastroenterological changes could be an early warning sign for Lou Gehrig's disease. Their research in animal models also shows a promising treatment to slow the disease’s progression.
