Electroencephalograms, or EEGs, are tests used to visualize brain activity and diagnose seizures in patients with epilepsy. Research from Michigan State University shows that while practitioners value EEGs for the information they provide, patients value EEGs in ways that far outweigh the test’s clinical utility to practitioners.
Hyperhidrosis, or excessive sweating, is a common medical condition that affects an estimated 15.8 million people in the U.S. It is normal to sweat when you overheat, or your nerves get the best of you. However, if you find yourself sweating profusely even without engaging in physical activity or exposure to high temperatures, you may have hyperhidrosis.
As sea ice disappears and grows less reflective, the Arctic has lost around a quarter of its cooling power since 1980, and the world has lost up to 15%, according to new research led by University of Michigan scientists.
UC San Diego researchers have uncovered the roots of group behavior in the brains of schooling fish. Glassfish, they found, depend on their sense of vision to coordinate social swimming behavior in schools and increase their ability to follow coordinated group movements as they mature.
The Supreme Court's recent Grants Pass v. Johnson ruling grants mayors broad powers to address homelessness, including jailing individuals for sleeping outside. ...
Irvine, Calif., July 17, 2024 — As nursing homes constantly strive to balance staffing decisions and optimal health outcomes for residents, a new study led by the University of California, Irvine reveals the complex relationship between different staff disciplines and quality of care.

Los investigadores de ACS Energy Letters informan sobre una batería de iones de litio con componentes totalmente extensibles, incluida una capa de electrolito que puede expandirse un 5000 %, y que conserva su capacidad de almacenamiento de carga después de casi 70 ciclos de carga y descarga.
En un estudio publicado en ACS Central Science, los investigadores han identificado una estrategia para diseñar opioides más seguros. Han demostrado que un opioide experimental, que se une a un sitio no convencional del receptor, suprime el dolor en modelos animales con menos efectos secundarios, especialmente los vinculados a sobredosis fatales.
Researchers at Berkeley Lab have successfully demonstrated an innovative approach to find breakthrough materials for quantum applications. The approach uses rapid computing methods to predict the properties of hundreds of materials, identifying short lists of the most promising ones.
Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis report that psilocybin, the active ingredient in magic mushrooms, destabilizes a critical network of brain areas involved in introspective thinking. The findings provide a neurobiological explanation for the drug’s mind-bending effects.
