The discovery of how intricate networks of blood vessels in the eye and brain are formed could inspire new treatments for glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, and stroke.
Research led by scientists at the National Eye Institute and Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou, China points to a potential strategy for extending the cold storage shelf life of donor cells and tissues, such as those of the pancreas, an organ crucial for making insulin.
Following decades of decline, even fewer birds will darken North American skies by the end of the century, according to a new University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign analysis. The study is the first to examine the long-term effects of climate change on the abundance and diversity of bird groups across the continent as a whole while accounting for additional factors that put birds at risk.
Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory have created a new nickel-rich cathode for lithium-ion batteries that both stores more energy and is more durable than conventional cathodes.

Leptomeningeal disease is a rare but lethal complication faced by late-stage melanoma patients. It occurs when cancer cells spread to the membranes covering the brain and spinal cord, or the leptomeninges. This condition, which affects 5% to 8% of melanoma patients, often leads to rapid deterioration and is notoriously resistant to therapies. However, a new Moffitt Cancer Center study, published today in Cell Reports Medicine, uncovers the mechanisms that drive this drug resistance, offering new avenues for potential treatments.
Using tools of modern genetics, plant biochemists have produced a new high-yielding oilseed crop variety — a yellow-seeded variety of Camelina sativa, a close relative of canola, that accumulates 21.4% more oil than ordinary camelina.

Researchers have demonstrated a new method that could enable the large-scale manufacturing of optical qubits. The work is a major advancement that could bring us closer to a scalable quantum computer.
In Applied Physics Reviews, researchers from Tsinghua University work to break through the difficulties of robotic recognition of various common, yet complex, items. Their layered sensor is equipped with material detection at the surface and pressure sensitivity at the bottom, with a porous middle layer sensitive to thermal changes.
In a large clinical trial, UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers developed a robust model for testing strategies to prevent health problems in patients with multiple chronic conditions.
In a new UCLA-led study, investigators shed light on the intricate processes underlying cancer evolution and define the optimal algorithms to analyze the genetic makeup of tumors.
The Molecular Transducers of Physical Activity Consortium, of which Zhen Yan is a founding member, studied both male and female rats over eight weeks of endurance exercise and found thousands of molecular alterations. These findings, which published in May in Nature, have implications for human health, such as in liver disease, bowel disease, cardiovascular health, and tissue recovery.

Journalists who register for the fall meeting of the American Chemical Society (ACS) will have access to about 10,000 presentations on topics including agriculture and food, energy and fuels, health and medicine, sustainability, and more.
Scientists have developed a new efficient catalyst for the most challenging part of “water splitting,” a series of two simultaneous electrochemical reactions that generate hydrogen gas, a green energy source, from water. The new catalyst was designed based on theoretical predictions and validated in laboratory tests and industrially relevant demonstrations.
