Research shows a clear shift in transportation choices under extreme heat conditions. Car use increases, while trips made by walking, biking and public transit drop significantly. On average, public transit trips fall by nearly 50% on extreme heat days as individuals seek relief in air-conditioned private vehicles.
With free COVID-19 rapid tests now shipping to households nationwide, and many other types of at-home medical tests now available, a new study looks at what older adults think about the ability to get answers to medical questions without leaving home.
A study by researchers at WashU Medicine shows that respiratory viruses can hide out in immune cells in the lungs long after the initial symptoms of an infection have resolved, creating a persistently inflammatory environment that promotes the development of chronic lung diseases such as asthma.
UC San Diego researchers have created an array of nanopillars that can breach the nucleus of a cell—the compartment that houses our DNA—without damaging the cell’s outer membrane. This new "gateway into the nucleus" could open new possibilities in gene therapy, where genetic material needs to be delivered directly into the nucleus, as well as drug delivery and other forms of precision medicine.
Dr. Ahn, Jung Ho's research team at the Clean Energy Research Center of the Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST) has developed a technology that uses enzymes derived from microorganisms to biodegrade polyethylene.
New research from Baylor University reveals that coyotes, like domestic dogs, have the ability to produce the famous "puppy dog eyes" expression. The study – "Coyotes can do 'puppy dog eyes' too: Comparing interspecific variation in Canis facial expression muscles," published in the Royal Society Open Science – challenges the hypothesis that this facial feature evolved exclusively in dogs as a result of domestication.
A Cleveland Clinic-led research collaboration between Timothy Chan, MD, PhD, Chair of Cleveland Clinic’s Global Center for Immunotherapy, and Bristol Myers Squibb has published the most comprehensive overview to date of how our immune system reshapes tumor architecture in response to immune checkpoint therapy. The eight-year study, published in Nature Medicine, outlines how cancer immunotherapy induces tumor recognition through neoantigens to reshape the tumor ecosystem.
How do consumers feel about robots generating emotionally charged marketing content? That’s the question a New York Institute of Technology professor raises in a new Journal of Business Research study.
Cancer cells frequently overhaul their surroundings, making tumors stiffer than nearby healthy tissue. While tumor stiffening makes some cancers easier to detect — this is why physicians feel for hard lumps in the body — it can also ramp up tumor growth and drug resistance. New research suggests that these detrimental changes are not set in stone, however.
New research from Christina Bambrick, the Filip Family Assistant Professor of Political Science at the University of Notre Dame, explores the nonconventional idea that each of us, as private citizens, may be responsible for upholding the constitutional rights of our fellow citizens. She examines constitutional politics across the globe to explore these different approaches to balancing rights and responsibilities in a democratic society.
