A new study by an international team of scientists provides the first comprehensive and publicly available database of area-based marine conservation in China’s waters. The study in Science Advances provides insight into the country’s progress toward meeting global commitments to protect marine waters.
A study led by Stony Brook University sheds light on the connection between the corrosion behavior and underlying materials structure in laser additively manufactured 316L stainless steel – a corrosion resistant metal. The findings may help to map pathways for engineering an even better printed alloy.
In a study that used inorganic, physical and analytical chemistry to mimic respiratory droplets that can carry viruses, researchers demonstrated a mechanism that enables multiple mask materials to be protective. Led by Stony Brook University, the study findings are published in The paper is published in the journal Applied Materials & Interfaces.
Ancient DNA (aDNA) research enables scientists to uncover more information than ever on past peoples. But this wide availability of aDNA brings ethical questions to the forefront. Now a team of more than 60 scholars have created a set of ethical guidelines regarding aDNA as a way to govern such research.
Researchers at Stony Brook University demonstrated that a loss of midbrain dopaminergic centers impairs the ability of the primary motor cortex neurons to transform inputs into appropriate output. The finding, published in eNeuro, supports a new line of research on the role of the motor cortex in Parkinson's Disease.
Physicians from the Renaissance School of Medicine at Stony Brook University discovered that for patients with severe Covid-19 pneumonia who had higher ferritin in their blood and were treated with a corticosteroid, fewer intubations and deaths resulted. Their findings are reported in JAMA Network Open.
Research by scientists at Stony Brook University’s School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences (SoMAS) reveals that climate velocity is affecting where large marine mammals are distributed relative to their prey species, which could have important implications for marine food web dynamics.
Harold “Hal” Paz, M.D., M.S., currently Executive Vice President and chancellor for health affairs at The Ohio State University and Chief Executive Officer of the Ohio State Wexner Medical Center, has been named Executive Vice President for Health Sciences at Stony Brook University, effective October 4, 2021.
A research team led by Stony Brook University has used molecular biology and cryoelectron microscopy to successfully unravel the structure of bacterial appendages called P pili. The finding, published in Nature Communications, is a key step in order to target P pili in the infection process.
A novel scientific framework to consistently understand, plan, establish, evaluate and monitor ocean protection in Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) developed by an international team of scientists including Ellen Pikitch, PhD, of Stony Brook University, is published in Science.
An enzyme with an elusive role in severe inflammation may be a key mechanism driving COVID-19 severity and could provide a new therapeutic target to reduce COVID-19 mortality. This finding by a team of researchers is detailed in a study to be published in the Journal of Clinical Investigation.
The Threespine stickleback fish is known to have evolved independently from its marine ancestors, a process called parallel evolution. A new study details the genomic changes that drive their rapid evolution, the findings from which may shed light on the process of natural selection in other species.
An electroencephalogram (EEG) study of adolescents with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) identified a neural signal that may help explain the variation of how those with ASD perceive or understand the mental states of others (called “Theory of Mind”).
Justin Fincher, PhD, vice president for advancement at The Ohio State University, has been appointed vice president for advancement, effective August 23, 2021, announced Stony Brook University President, Maurie McInnis. Reporting directly to President McInnis and serving as a member of her senior management team, Fincher will provide leadership for the University’s development and alumni relations operations and serve as executive director of the Stony Brook Foundation.
A research team that includes Anthropology researchers from Stony Brook University has used 14 years of demographic data on multiple groups of wild geladas to determine that mid-size group living is best for fitness, essentially optimizing survival and reproduction.
After experiencing a year of hybrid learning as the COVID-19 pandemic continued, it was finally time to celebrate. Stony Brook University students became alumni in 10 2021 Degree Conferral Celebration ceremonies. The ceremonies took place at LaValle Stadium between May 19 and 21.
A team of researchers including Ira S. Cohen, MD, PhD, of the Renaissance School of Medicine at Stony Brook University, has identified a compound that prevents the lengthening of the heart’s electrical event which can cause a lengthening of the EKG’s Q-T interval and a sometimes deadly arrhythmia.
