The mystery of how futuristic aircraft embedded engines, featuring an energy-conserving arrangement, make noise has been solved by researchers at the University of Bristol.
April is Oral Cancer Awareness Month, and the American Association of Nurse Anesthesiology (AANA) reminds the public that the best prevention of oral health issues is early detection. However, patients also need to be aware of the critical importance of ensuring access to safe anesthesia care during oral cancer treatments including surgery.
A student team from The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH), a part of the University of Alabama System, has been crowned national champion in the first Virtual Institutes for Cyber and Electromagnetic Spectrum Research and Employ (VICEROY) National Cyber Competition. The VICEROY Institute is a program of the Air Force Research Laboratory managed by the Griffiss Institute to provide support for a virtual institute at UAH to develop expertise in critical cyber and electromagnetic spectrum operational skills for future military and civilian leaders of the Armed Forces and the Department of Defense.

At Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS), a 3D printer is manufacturing custom-made joint replacements for the most complex cases when a standard implant won’t work. HSS was the first hospital in the U.S. to house a 3D printing facility onsite for custom implants, in collaboration with LimaCorporate (recently acquired by Enovis).
A heart attack will leave a permanent scar on a human heart, yet other animals, including zebrafish, can clear cardiac scar tissue and regrow damaged muscle as adults. New research by University of Utah biologists sheds new light on how zebrafish heal heart tissue by comparing how this species responds to heart injury with medaka, a fish species that cannot regenerate cardiac tissue.
Cedars-Sinai investigators have identified significant variations in the microbes of the small bowel (small intestine) are strongly associated with various body weights, from a normal body mass index, or BMI, to having obesity.
With more than 200 types of cancer and every cancer individually unique, ongoing efforts to develop precision oncology treatments remain daunting. In a new study published in the journal Nature Cancer, first author Sanju Sinha, Ph.D., at Sanford Burnham Prebys, with senior authors Eytan Ruppin, M.D., Ph.D., and Alejandro Schaffer, Ph.D., at the National Cancer Institute—and colleagues—describe a first-of-its-kind computational pipeline to systematically predict patient response to cancer drugs at single-cell resolution.
Leadership Women selected pacesetters from across the state for their professional, cultural, geographic and ethnic diversity. Each one has also shown a desire to collaborate with leaders from a broad spectrum of disciplines and interests. Through the program, participants learn about the opportunities and challenges of different communities they visit, develop new leadership skills and gain new perspectives.
UCLA Health researchers will be co-principal investigators in the Untangling Addiction program launched this year by the nonprofit health research organization Wellcome Leap. The three-year, $50 million project includes 13 other partnering universities and organizations and is aimed at developing new ways to quantify addiction risk and progression through biomarkers.
A third of China’s urban population at risk of city sinking, according to new satellite data. In an invited article for the journal Science, Manoochehr Shirzaei discusses how this phenomenon points to a global problem: Land is sinking everywhere.
Mount Sinai researchers, in collaboration with scientists at The Rockefeller University, have uncovered a mechanism in the brain that allows cocaine and morphine to take over natural reward processing systems.
Artificial heterostructures made of freestanding 2D and 3D membranes developed by WashU's Sang-Hoon Bae have an energy density up to 19 times higher than commercially available capacitors.
Helen Boucher and Jeffrey Griffiths, both infectious disease physicians and at Tufts University School of Medicine, offer their advice for those concerned about measles affecting them or their family.
Open-water swimming requires athletes to take into account a wide number of variables. Roberta Freitas-Lemos said when she’s in the ocean, temperature fluctuations, murky conditions, and the motion of the waves make it a challenging sport, both physically and mentally. Complexity also characterizes Freitas-Lemos’ research at the Fralin Biomedical Research Institute at VTC, where she works at the intersection of tobacco use, health equity, and cancer.
