A new study has reported that fear can be unlearned, and has identified that mice lacking a particular serotonin receptor unlearn fear faster. The researchers hope that this knowledge can be applied to the development of PTSD drugs.

The discovery could enable the development of innovative medicines with fewer side effects.

A newly designed small fluorescent protein that emits and absorbs light that penetrates deep into biological tissue can help researchers capture deeper, cleaner and more precise biomedical images.

A rare form of CRISPR has been used to edit the genomes of bacteriophages. Custom-designed phages could help treat drug-resistant infections and help researchers control microbe populations without the use of antibiotics.

A joint report identifies that the decline in measles vaccination is a significant setback in global progress toward achieving and maintaining measles elimination and leaves millions of children susceptible to infection.

Scientists have performed whole-body PET scans before and thirty days after the start of treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors, and found that CD8+ T cell presence is both heterogeneous and dynamic.

The perception that resources are unfairly distributed is at the root of many social conflicts. Researchers at the University of Zurich have investigated the motives influencing our perception of justice in resource distribution.

The viscosity of the fluid surrounding a tumor could signal cancer cells to move and spread, according to new research from the University of Alberta.

Research suggests that CAR T-cell therapy could be used to eliminate unwanted cells that cause autoimmunity.

The loss of brain volume as we age follows a different trajectory depending on biological sex, new research has found. The researchers also identified potential biomarkers that indicate a person's risk of brain aging.
