Sandia National Laboratories is being credited with saving the Department of Energy $439 million as part of a more efficient way of doing business with suppliers. That’s more than any other DOE site nationwide.
Chetan Bettegowda, M.D., Ph.D., a neurosurgeon and scientist whose work led to the first brain cancer-specific molecular biomarker, has been named the next director of the Department of Neurosurgery for the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, effective May 15.
A new study coordinated by Dr. Salvatore Cortellino and Professor Antonio Giordano, President of the Sbarro Health Research Organization (SHRO) and molecular oncologist at Temple University and the University of Siena, offers a critical assessment of vitamin supplementation and popular dietary trends in the context of cancer prevention and treatment.
Teaching healthy relationship skills to middle school students can help prevent adolescent relationship abuse and lead to better mental health outcomes — including reduced depression — years later, according to researchers at UTHealth Houston. The study was published today in the Journal of Adolescent Health.
Mount Sinai-led study leads to improved understanding of risk
From the powdered wings of a butterfly to the icy spines of a snowflake, symmetry is a common feature in nature. Now, nuclear physicists conducting experiments at Jefferson Lab have found new and unexpected cases of broken isospin symmetry.
Increased sleep difficulties in patients with obsessive-compulsive spectrum disorders (OCSDs), chronic tic disorders (CTDs), and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are likely due to disruptions in the cortico-striatal-thalamo-cortical (CSTC) pathway, according to a narrative review in the May issue of Harvard Review of Psychiatry, part of the Lippincott portfolio from Wolters Kluwer.
Diabetes and hypertension could have a domino effect for future health problems like dementia — especially for Black Americans, according to a new University of Georgia study.
OrthoTrophix Initiated Phase 2b Clinical Trial of TPX-100 in Patients with Mild to Severe Knee Osteoarthritis
New research from Binghamton University, State University of New York reveals that your wrinkles formed from submering in water for too long actually form in the same pattern every time.

My research at Yale University is dedicated to advancing our understanding and treatment of gastroesophageal cancer (GEC). GEC poses a significant challenge due to its complex nature and poor prognosis, especially when accompanied by peritoneal metastases.
Chulalongkorn University extends its heartfelt congratulations to the students from the Faculty of Law for their outstanding performance in the Philip C. Jessup International Law Moot Court Competition, International Rounds, held from March 29 to April 5, 2025, in Washington, D.C., USA.
Methane, a greenhouse gas over 25 times more potent than carbon dioxide, continues to seep into the atmosphere from landfills, fossil fuel operations, and agricultural sources. Tackling these diffuse emissions has been a persistent challenge—until now. A new scientific review highlights biofiltration, a nature-based solution that enlists methane-eating microbes, as a promising tool for mitigating this invisible threat. The review offers a deep dive into the biological and engineering principles behind biofiltration, evaluates its real-world effectiveness, and outlines targeted strategies to enhance system performance. From microbial metabolism to pollutant synergy, this study builds a scientific roadmap for integrating methane biofilters into broader climate action.
Using advanced artificial intelligence, researchers have developed a novel method to make drug development faster and more efficient.
An international team of researchers has developed LLaVA-Endo, a powerful new AI tool that helps doctors more accurately diagnose digestive diseases by combining visual and language understanding during gastrointestinal endoscopies.
Investigators at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have been named semifinalists—and one of the Top 40 Milestone Award winners—in the prestigious XPRIZE Healthspan, a $101 million global competition dedicated to transforming how we age. XPRIZE Healthspan challenges the world’s top scientists and clinicians to develop treatments that can restore muscle strength, cognitive performance, and immune function in older adults by at least 10 years, with a bold goal of 20 years. Selected from a highly competitive international pool, Mount Sinai’s multidisciplinary team, NYC-Vita, stood out for its innovative, feasible, and safe approach. The team was named a Milestone 1 Awardee in the competition, earning $250,000 in funding to advance to the next phase: a clinical trial to be conducted in New York City.
A team of physicists has uncovered a surprising new way to explore one of science’s greatest challenges: uniting the two fundamental theories that explain how our universe works – Einstein’s theory of gravity and quantum mechanics.
Earth’s auroras, also known as the Northern and Southern Lights, appear as shimmering curtains visible to observers on the ground and even astronauts aboard the International Space Station. Auroras occur when energetic particles from the Sun are funneled by our magnetic field and slam into the atmosphere near Earth’s poles. The planet Jupiter experiences auroras on a much grander scale – both larger and hundreds of times brighter than Earth’s. Astronomers turned Webb’s keen gaze to Jupiter and found that its auroras “pop” and “fizz,” changing on timescales of minutes or even seconds.
Andelyn Biosciences, Inc., a leading and patient-focused cell and gene therapy Contract Development and Manufacturing Organization (CDMO), has successfully manufactured a novel viral vector gene therapy with its AAV Curator® Platform to treat a baby with the ultra-rare disease Neurodevelopmental Disorder with Regression, Abnormal Movements, Loss of Speech, and Seizures (NEDAMSS).
