Research from the University of Michigan suggests that one day a phone app could be able to detect the development of hepatic encephalopathy in patients just by listening to them speak.
UC San Diego Health ranks among the top academic medical centers for quality in Vizient’s 2024 Bernard A. Birnbaum Quality Leadership Award.
Eliminating taxes on tips — an idea supported by both major party 2024 presidential candidates — could benefit some service workers but the overall impact may not be that dramatic, says a Virginia Tech expert. There are roughly 4 million workers for whom tips make up a significant portion of their income. However, more than a third of those workers don’t earn enough to end up owing federal taxes.
Two new papers by an international team of researchers demonstrate that evaluating microRNAs in blood can be used not only to diagnose mild cognitive impairment (MCI) but also to predict the conversion from MCI to dementia due to Alzheimer's disease.
With a $60,000 grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), Florida State University Professor Judith Pascoe is shining a spotlight on Jane Taylor, the poet behind “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star” in a new biography she’s writing titled “Twinkle, Twinkle: Female Literary Ambition, Male Genius, and the Most Famous Poet You’ve Never Heard Of.
University of Maryland School of Medicine (UMSOM) Dean Mark T. Gladwin, announced today that the School of Medicine has been awarded $2 million in matching funds from the Maryland E-Nnovation Initiative Fund (MEIF), administered by the Maryland Department of Commerce. The funds, totaling $4 million when combined with UMB qualified funding, will enable the establishment of three endowed research professorships.
Between and around the billions of neurons in the human brain is an interlinked net of proteins and sugars, which can regulate memory, learning, and behavior. A new tool developed by University of Utah Health researchers has uncovered detailed, dynamic patterns in this network's structure.

Reporters are invited to this live event on Obesity Management and Kidney Health. Experts from the American Society of Nephrology will take questions on the inaugural Kidney Health Guidance on managing obesity in kidney disease patients
New research from Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) uses saturation genome editing to better understanding of the RAD51C gene, which has been linked to higher risks of breast and ovarian cancer; sheds new light on brain metastasis; and finds a commercially available contrast dye could help surgeons better separate cancer from healthy tissue.
Self-preferencing by large tech companies, like Amazon, faces scrutiny, with Congress considering the AICOA and OAMA bills to restrict the practice. A UMD Smith expert suggests these regulations could unintentionally raise consumer prices by reducing competition between sellers.
Researchers have achieved a groundbreaking advancement in plant biotechnology by using a magnetofected pollen gene delivery system to genetically transform cucumbers. This cutting-edge method uses DNA-coated magnetic nanoparticles to introduce foreign genes into pollen, producing genetically modified seeds without the need for traditional tissue culture or regeneration steps. This technique significantly streamlines and accelerates crop genetic modification, opening up new avenues to boost agricultural productivity and resilience.
A pivotal study has mapped the genetic blueprint of Hydrangea macrophylla, uncovering the molecular foundations behind its stunning ornamental features. This genetic deep dive not only revolutionizes the breeding of this beloved garden staple but also provides fresh insights into the evolution of the Asterid clade, one of the largest families of flowering plants.
UChicago Medicine and the Pritzker School of Medicine received the Association of American Medical College's Spencer Foreman Award for Outstanding Community Engagement, recognizing their service through medical education, research and clinical care.
Dermot McGovern, MD, PhD, director of Translational Research in the F. Widjaja Inflammatory Bowel Disease Institute at Cedars-Sinai, has been awarded the prestigious Sherman Prize for his pioneering work in advancing understanding of the genetic architecture of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and applying that knowledge to deliver personalized medicine to patients.
