in 2022 collaborators - patient groups, basic researchers, and clinicians - conducted a survey and listening sessions with patients, caregivers, and family members affected by impaired smell or taste. They asked about their individual perceptions of the effectiveness of treatments, among other topics.
New study shows UC Davis total-body advanced PET scanner EXPLORER can visualize dual blood supply in lungs and effectively evaluate lung cancer and track treatment progress.
Researchers have developed — and shared — a process for creating brain cortical organoids — essentially miniature artificial brains with functioning neural networks
An international team of astronomers led by the University of Vienna has deciphered the formation history of young star clusters, some of which we can see with the naked eye at night.
Juvenile social play predicts adult reproductive success in male bottlenose dolphins, a new study has found.
Having advanced six policies since 2008 to detect and promote treatment of perinatal mental health conditions, the state of Illinois has emerged as a leader in these critical health areas, according to a study by University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign social work professors Karen M. Tabb, center, and Sandra Kopels. U. of I. alumnus Xavier Ramirez co-wrote the paper, published in Frontiers in Psychiatry.
Management consultants and professors seem to be obsessed with visuals. When it comes to strategy, they either pull out their impeccable slides, replete with graphics, or they pick up a marker to sketch out their own frameworks on a whiteboard. This phenomenon has piqued the interest of Felipe Csaszar, professor of strategy.
Americans' interest in a potentially harmful "magic mushroom" is soaring, according to a new study by researchers at the University of California San Diego Herbert Wertheim School of Public Health and Human Longevity Science.
A new publication titled “Protection of Participants in Community-Engaged Research by Institutional Review Boards: A Call for Action,” co-authored by Liliane Windsor, PhD, MSW, and Kevin Tan, PhD, MSW, from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign School of Social Work, highlights critical shortcomings in the current Institutional Review Board (IRB) processes that hinder community-engaged research (CEnR).
Checkpoint immunotherapy utilizing PD-1 blockade has become the standard of care for metastatic melanoma. While this treatment is effective in 40 percent of patients, the other 60 percent develop resistance, leading to tumor regrowth.
By super cooling a molecule on the surface of brain cells down to about minus 180 degrees Celsius — nearly twice as cold as the coldest places in Antarctica — scientists at Johns Hopkins Medicine say they have determined how a widely-used epilepsy drug works to dampen the excitability of brain cells and help to control, although not cure, seizures.
A new study led by American Cancer Society researchers shows less than one-in-five eligible individuals in the United States were up-to-date with recommended lung cancer screening. The screening uptake was much lower in persons without health insurance or usual source of care and in Southern states with the highest lung cancer burden.
New research from Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis and other institutions supports earlier findings that indicate that anesthesia is no more hazardous for the brain at higher doses than at lower doses.
As many as 40% of preterm infants in the U.S. suffer from nephrocalcinosis, a condition that deposits excess calcium in kidneys.
Astronomers observing exoplanet GJ 3470 b saw evidence of water, carbon dioxide, methane and sulfur dioxide, findings that UW–Madison astronomer Thomas Beatty presented in Madison today at the 244th meeting of the American Astronomical Society and that he will soon publish in Astrophysical Journal Letters with co-authors from Arizona State University, the University of Arizona, NASA’s Ames Research Center and other organizations.
Strong family relationships have long been associated with a better sense of well-being and connection. Now a team led by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers has linked the quality of those relationships with how successfully people – particularly aging African Americans – manage pain.
New research involving faculty at Binghamton University, State University of New York shows how people with friends who make more money than they do are more likely to save and make smart financial investments themselves.
The way protons and neutrons move between two nuclei is key to understanding the processes in low-energy nuclear fusion reactions. As the nuclei draw close enough for the nuclear forces to become effective, neutrons and protons can migrate from one nucleus to another, potentially easing the fusion process.
The Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science (KRISS) has developed a novel quantum sensor technology that allows the measurement of perturbations in the infrared region with visible light by leveraging the phenomenon of quantum entanglement.
