Ultra-thin layers of silk deposited on graphene in perfect alignment represent a key advance for the control needed in microelectronics and advanced neural network development.
A study by Rutgers University-New Brunswick researchers has shown that military veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), who participated in a program caring for horses, experienced an improved mental outlook and easing of symptoms. Some of the most widely used psychotherapy interventions for PTSD ... have shown that about one-third of participants drop out prior to the completion of treatment.
Having a robust emergency savings fund could help people weather financial shocks, such as job loss during the COVID-19 pandemic, finds a new study from the Brown School at Washington University in St. Louis.
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.
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.
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.
A recent study has uncovered the pivotal role of the enzyme CsNADP-ME2 (NADP-dependent malic enzyme, NADP-ME) in cucumbers, controlling the delicate balance between carbon and amino acid metabolism within the fruit. This intricate metabolic process directly impacts fruit development, yield, and nutritional quality, highlighting CsNADP-ME2 as a promising target for enhancing crop performance and food quality through metabolic engineering.
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.
