In an era of intense polarization, Democrats and Republicans have historically, and mistakenly, believed that members of the other party prioritize protecting certain types or victims of hate speech over others based on stereotypes or their affiliation with those potentially vulnerable groups. New research from the University of Notre Dame, however, revealed that partisans generally agree on what to censor when it comes to the target, source and severity of hate speech.
Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis are identifying behavioral, environmental and neural factors through which genetic risk for mental health problems is expressed in youth
A new study has decoded the complex genome of the Tibetan wild tree peony (Paeonia ludlowii), revealing its evolutionary history and the genetic drivers behind its unique traits. This comprehensive genomic resource could transform tree peony breeding and shed light on how plants adapt to high-altitude environments. The research unveils the genome’s intricate structure, emphasizing the crucial role of transposable elements and DNA methylation in shaping the genetic diversity of this rare species.
Home-rental platforms like Airbnb are known to drive up housing costs, but a new study shows that doing a better job of collecting the taxes owed by these home rentals appears to slow the rise in home prices.
The University of Miami will invest $30 million to enhance research and innovation in basic science and the areas of neuroscience and aging.
Rutgers University-New Brunswick student Ashley Caldwell likes to keep busy. The junior, who attends the Edward J. Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy, is finding her days even busier now as the newest – and youngest member – of the New Brunswick Board of Education.
Previously thought to be mere connective tissue and support for neurons, astrocytes are now understood to have many functions in the nervous system that are linked with seizures and epilepsy.
The American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) is pleased to announce that Medtronic, a global leader in health care technology, is an ASA Industry Supporter for the 10th year, supporting the work of the Society and anesthesiologists to improve patient safety and outcomes.
Boron, a crucial nutrient for plants, is essential for tomato growth and development. Yet, how tomatoes respond to boron deficiency has remained largely unclear. This study sheds light on the physiological and molecular changes tomatoes undergo when faced with boron scarcity. The findings reveal critical mechanisms that could lead to new strategies for boosting crop resilience and improving productivity in agriculture.
A new study has revealed how light regulates the growth and pigmentation of woodland strawberries. Researchers identified the FvePhyB gene, a red/far-red light photoreceptor, as a key player in controlling plant height and anthocyanin production. These findings could reshape strawberry farming by optimizing light conditions to improve crop quality and yield.
NIBIB-funded researchers are working to bring in vivo gene editing to the fore. Through rational engineering of lipid nanoparticles, this collaborative team developed a way to effectively target specific organs in the body to precisely deliver therapeutic cargo, including gene-editing molecules.
Beth Sutton, MD, FACS, a general surgeon who has spent much of her career balancing private practice with leadership roles at the American College of Surgeons (ACS), will become the 105th president of the ACS.
