Phase 2 proof-of-concept study shows Esketamine could be an important treatment to bridge the gap that exists because of the delayed effect of most common antidepressants.

Many strains of bacteria have become resistant to existing antibiotics, and very few new drugs have been added to the antibiotic arsenal .Researchers have now developed a promising streamlined approach to developing such drugs using a computer algorithm that mimics the natural process of evolution.

A newly discovered structure of a sodium-based material allows the materials to be used as an electrolyte in solid-state batteries. The team is fine-tuning the material using an iterative design approach that they hope will shave years off the time from research to everyday use.

Researchers have discovered a method to dramatically improve the way pollutants are removed from wastewater using Advanced Oxidation Processes.

Depression is a complex disease, with both environmental and genetic causes. Researchers trying to illuminate the latter have found genes linked to depression that might help discover why some people are at higher risk.

Mass spectrometry showed that some foods contained 100 times the daily dietary allowance of zinc nanoparticles, used in the lining of certain canned goods for their antimicrobial properties and to prevent staining of sulfur-producing foods.

The study focused on people who profess "belief superiority"— or thinking their views are superior to other viewpoints—as it relates to political issues.

Extends Horizon’s biomanufacturing capabilities into vaccine manufacture. Research supported by a grant from the Canadian International Development Research Centre, funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation.

After a heart attack, proteins that usually aid tissue repair often go out of control, resulting in heavy scarring and further damage to the heart muscle. Now, a protein has been targeted to prevent this dangerous scarring.

Researchers have discovered that a bacterium found in the microbiota associated with this leafcutter ant species produces the same pyrazines used by the ants to lay a trail to their nest and in the colony's defense against pathogens.
