The newer high-sensitivity troponin test discovers smaller amounts of heart-specific proteins, troponins, than the older troponin test and thus identifies more myocardial infarction patients than before.

Researchers have developed a new way to power and communicate with devices implanted deep within the human body.

Scientists shed new light on the transitions between a wakeful, active state and the stillness of sleep

Findings could help to target public health messaging, for example to encourage handwashing with soap or to counter the stigma associated with sickness

Patient-derived organoids can quickly and accurately predict how patients with pancreatic cancer respond to a variety of treatments, facilitating a precision-medicine approach to the deadly disease.

Millions of years of evolutionary fine-tuning have made dolphins phenomenally good at using echolocation to orient themselves, find food and communicate with one another. But how do they actually do it? New research from Lund University in Sweden shows that they emit two intertwined ultrasound beam components at different frequencies – and with slightly different timing.

A rare opportunity to use both blood and tissue samples from human transplant recipients has allowed researchers to pinpoint how an immunosuppressive drug works to prevent the production of antibodies against the transplanted tissue. This understanding may lead to improved ways of identifying transplant recipients at risk of rejection and treating autoimmune disease.

Researchers from Stevens Institute of Technology and University of Auckland, have developed an imaging technique that captures the brain in motion, in real time.

BellBrook Labs has been awarded a $1 million phase II SBIR grant by the National Institutes of General Medical Sciences to develop assays to detect cGAMP in biological samples.

Partnership will include broad range of value-based programs, rewarding high-quality, easily accessible laboratory services at the best value and real-time data sharing to drive more personalized care support.
