A potential new antidepressant and anti-anxiety treatment with a unique mechanism of action has been developed by scientists at the University of Bath.

A particularly aggressive form of pediatric cancer can be spotted reliably by the genetic fragments it leaves behind in children’s biofluids, opening the door to non-surgical biopsies and providing a way to gauge whether such tumors respond to treatment.

Northwestern Engineering’s Vadim Backman has developed an effective new strategy for treating cancer, which has wiped out the disease to near completion in cellular cultures in the laboratory.

A new stem cell study conducted at the University of Copenhagen shows how we may increase the vital production of insulin in patients suffering from diabetes.

Researchers at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, Koch Institute at MIT, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, and Massachusetts General Hospital Cancer Center have developed an accurate, scalable approach for monitoring cancer DNA from blood samples.

Portuguese researchers have identified a defense mechanism by which the malaria parasite can survive inside its host's liver cells. The team wishes to identify compounds that can block the parasite's capacity to inhibit cellular autophagy and test its efficiency as novel drugs against malaria.

NIH study shows connections between glucose metabolism, Alzheimer’s pathology, symptoms.

The findings could lead to potential new drug therapies to help patients with obstructive sleep apnea get more rest.

With their brains, sleep patterns and even eyes still developing, children and adolescents are particularly vulnerable to the sleep-disrupting effects of screen time.
