Research from the University of Adelaide shows microbial communities in echidna pseudo-pouches undergo dramatic changes while the animal is lactating, which could help in creating an environment for their young, known as puggles, to thrive.
Mental health challenges are common in children in the birth-to-5 age range and often co-occur with medical conditions. However, the tools and diagnostic criteria frequently used for older children and adults, like the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), aren’t intended for infants and young children.
As demand for energy-intensive computing grows, researchers at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory have developed a new technique that lets scientists see — in unprecedented detail — how interfaces move in promising materials for computing and other applications. The method, now available to users at the Center for Nanophase Materials Sciences at ORNL, could help design dramatically more energy-efficient technologies.
The Foundation for Food & Agriculture Research (FFAR) and matching funders today awarded two Seeding Solutions grants totaling over $5 million to the Donald Danforth Plant Science Center (Danforth Center) for crop development research.FFAR, the Danforth Center, Kansas State University, The Land Institute, the Perennial Agriculture Project and Saint Louis University provided $2,926,098 to a project accelerating the domestication of perennial crops, which are planted once and harvested over several growing seasons.
Folic acid supplementation is recommended for all women with epilepsy who may become pregnant. However, there is no agreed-upon dose for women with epilepsy taking antiseizure medication, and there may be risks of high-dose (>1 mg/day) folic acid supplementation.
Le terme « écart 10/90 » fait référence au fait que moins de 10 % du financement de la recherche en santé est consacré à la santé dans les pays à faibles ressources, où surviennent 90 % des décès évitables. La recherche sur l'épilepsie est confrontée à des défis similaires à ceux de la recherche sur d'autres pathologies, mais elle présente également des problématiques spécifiques.
This hidden danger can cause ischemic strokes as well as cardiovascular-related deaths
Standard Change-Makers Steps Up Its Support of Industry
Ushering in a new era of cancer care in Fort Worth, UT Southwestern Medical Center broke ground today on a $177 million Radiation Oncology campus that will provide the most advanced therapies for patients of the nation’s 12th-largest city.
University of Maryland Marlene and Stewart Greenebaum Comprehensive Cancer Center (UMGCCC) researchers, who are on faculty at the University of Maryland School of Medicine, presented findings at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting in Chicago last month.
Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer-related death globally. Although some of the molecular changes associated with colorectal cancer are known, how they contribute to cancer development is not yet well defined. In a study published in Journal of Clinical Investigation, researchers used mouse models and studies of colorectal cancer tissues to show that loss of SOX9 gene promotes tumor progression and the pathway it regulates can be a potential target for future treatments.
Hardening the grid: Research team focuses on quake proofing transformer bushings
If you want to do your best, most creative work, moving to a new place – or working from several places – can accelerate the process, according to a new study of Nobel Prize winners. Researchers found that Nobel laureates who moved more frequently began their prize-winning work up to 2 years earlier than did laureates who never moved. Those who worked in multiple locations started their innovative work up to 2.6 years earlier.
Industry and academia are collaborating to build a world-first, cost-effective concentrated solar thermal (CST) demonstrator that is set to transform Australia’s industrial heat sector by reducing its reliance on fossil fuels.
