New research suggests that people who are apathetic towards climate change may be more emotionally impassive in other areas of their lives.

Researchers have shown that a converted form of huntingtin, resistant to developing cleavages known to be the cause of Huntington’s disease, alleviated the disease’s symptoms and maintained the functions of normal huntingtin.

DNA from fossilized whipworm eggs found in Viking feces has enabled an in-depth genetic analysis of the parasite's development and spread.

Cedars-Sinai investigators have developed an investigational therapy using support cells and a protective protein that can be delivered past the blood-brain barrier.

Soil temperature could be used to monitor and predict the survival of corn earworms over winter and therefore predict how likely they are to spread.

UC San Diego researchers illuminate the role of key neurons, which alter function in response to seasonal changes in light exposure.

New research has found that repeated concussions can thicken the structure of skull bones. Previous studies have shown damage to the brain following concussion, but have not looked at the brain’s protective covering.

Researchers have identified a molecular mechanism that helps regulate the progression of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). Downregulation of the protein FOXA1 regulates hypoxia, or lack of oxygen, to promote prostate cancer progression.

Researchers have designed a solar-powered "backpack" system that enables remote control of a cockroach for environmental monitoring.

Researchers have developed a novel nanoengineered granular hydrogel bioink that makes use of self-assembling nanoparticles and hydrogel microparticles to achieve previously unattained levels of porosity, shape fidelity and cell integration.
