The Link Between Obesity, the Brain, and Genetics
When it comes to weight gain, the problem may be mostly in our heads, and our genes.

Size is Everything
Researchers have found a way to strike a balance-sprays that don’t drift too far but provide tiny droplets to stick to the surface which could reduce pesticide usage and therefore pollution.

Immune System Prioritizes Distinct Immune Responses in Infants with Flu
Unconventional T cells play a pivotal role in protecting infants from serious, possibly fatal, flu complications rather than fueling inflammation.

QTY Code Simplifies Membrane Protein Analysis
About 30 percent of the proteins encoded by the human genome are membrane proteins that are critical for learning, seeing, and sensing odors, among many other functions. MIT researchers have developed a way to make these proteins water-soluble, which will greatly simplify the process of analyzing these proteins

$50M Awarded to MD Anderson to Support Research
The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center has been awarded $30 million to support research, core facilities, recruitment and prevention efforts from the Cancer Prevention and Research Institute of Texas. An additional $19.9 million was awarded to a company co-founded by MD Anderson to support the development of a novel targeted therapy to treat neurological conditions caused by chemotherapy.

Major Rivers Show Surprising Changes in Carbon Chemistry
Research suggests that the same factors driving the Arctic’s changing climate are fueling a geological response that could play a small part in counteracting those changes’ malign effects.

The Protein Changes That Point to Cancer
Researchers can, for the first time, precisely characterize the protein modification ADP-ribosylation for all proteins in a tissue sample. The changes, which are a typical reaction to stress, provide information about the condition of a cell. The researchers are now testing the new method to diagnose and treat cancer.
