A multi-institutional team including Jon Detterich, MD, Principal Investigator in the Heart Institute at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles, found that cardiovascular MRI with late gadolinium enhancement can predict heart risk in children with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
The final weeks of the 118th Congress will focus on urgent tasks, including passing a government funding extension, disaster aid, and the annual defense policy bill. ...
ORNL's Peter Fuhr continues pushes boundaries of optical and sensor technology in applications ranging from fighting wildfires to operating the immense floodgates protecting Venice, Italy. Fuhr’s path is marked by an oddball creativity that can’t confine itself to challenges in a single field. No idea is too far out to try out. His many inventions and start-ups before joining ORNL proved his ability to bring bold ideas to life. His influence is likely to be lasting, as his imagination and infectious zeal have driven him to mentor generations of new engineers.

When night falls and children are sleeping at Johns Hopkins Children’s Center, little elves come to life to bring joy to patients when they need it the most.
Everyone is invited to participate in this exchange of science related to nutrition, innovative ingredients, products and processes in the food and beverage ecosystem.
Vanderbilt is hosting a NIDCD-funded annual symposium for promising otolaryngology residents, fellows and junior faculty interested in becoming successful investigators. During the two-day course, invited senior faculty from around the country will host lectures, small group sessions and panels on the elements to flourish as a clinician-scientist. This conference is designed to motivate participants and provide them with the tools needed to achieve success in basic, translational and clinical research.
The seventh Bloomberg American Health Summit organized by the Bloomberg American Health Initiative will bring together public health leaders, government officials, community organizations, researchers, and students to discuss evidence-based health policies that remain critical to advancing health in a politically divided country. The Summit will take place on December 3 in Washington, D.C.
In a groundbreaking study published in the journal Nature Human Behaviour, researchers have uncovered significant genetic connections between human language abilities and musical rhythm skills, providing new insights into the biological underpinnings of these fundamental human traits.
As part of the COVID-19 International Research Team, researchers at the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center, Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, the University of Pittsburgh and Weill Cornell Medicine discovered a novel cause of cytokine storm — the extreme inflammatory response associated with increased risk of death in COVID-19 infection.
Samantha Paustian-Underdahl, a researcher and organizational expert in the Florida State University College of Business, led a comprehensive study that challenges long-held assumptions about gender and leadership effectiveness.The study, “Gender and Evaluations of Leadership Behaviors: A Meta-Analytic Review of 50 Years of Research,” published this fall in Leadership Quarterly, finds that women leaders consistently receive higher ratings than men across most effective leadership styles.
University of Illinois Chicago undergraduate students — in any field of study — will have the opportunity to develop their data and artificial intelligence skills thanks to a $1 million award from Google.org.
Scientists have a new way to use data from high-energy particle smashups to peer inside protons. Their approach uses quantum information science to map out how particle tracks streaming from electron-proton collisions are influenced by quantum entanglement inside the proton.
Alcohol’s ability to increase people’s pain threshold is one reason that drinking also leads to more aggressive behavior, a new study suggests. Researchers found that the less pain that study participants felt after drinking an alcoholic beverage, the more pain they were willing to inflict on someone else.
New research reveals the pivotal role of a mitochondrion-localized protein, PtoRFL30, in the wood formation of poplar trees. This revelation sheds light on the dynamic communication between a tree’s nuclear and mitochondrial systems, offering crucial insights into secondary growth.

Yale researchers made an unexpected discovery—turncoat T cells that help a tumor evade other cancer-fighting immune T cells—in a study of patients living with advanced melanoma that was published Nov. 28 in Nature Immunology.
A cutting-edge studystudy has uncovered the pivotal role of the sltrxh protein in tomatoes in managing nitrate stress—a growing challenge in modern agriculture. The research highlights that s-nitrosation, a key post-translational modification of sltrxh, significantly enhances the plant's ability to tolerate high nitrate levels. This discovery marks a promising step toward developing crop varieties with improved resistance to nitrogen stress, addressing both agricultural and environmental concerns.
A new method has been developed to create optical vortices with spatial-frequency patching metasurfaces. These "super-capacity perfect vector vortex beams" offer significantly increased data transmission capacity by utilizing multiple dimensions, including beam morphology, polarization azimuth, and ellipticity angle.
The journal Geo-Spatial Information Science will soon release a special issue showcasing the mid-term achievements of the China-Europe Earth Observation project, “Dragon 5.” Launched in July 2020, the initiative has made significant strides in Earth sciences, fostering cross-border collaboration and advancing the use of satellite data.
