Muscle cells play a vital role in repairing fractured bones21:22 Bone healing is a complex process that depends on the coordinated activity of many different cell types. UiA research project develops mobile app to combat world’s most neglected tropical diseases20:50 A research project at UiA is working to combat one of the world’s most neglected tropical diseases. A mobile app has now been developed to train healthcare workers in Africa to detect the disease. Würzburg researchers discover alternative approach to preventing thrombosis20:50 Glycoprotein VI, or GPVI for short, is a surface receptor found exclusively on platelets and their precursor cells, megakaryocytes in the bone marrow. AI-based "tissue clocks" measure the biological age of human organs20:50 AI-based "tissue clocks" can estimate the biological age of human organs from histological images, researchers at the CeMM Research Center for Molecular Medicine of the Austrian Academy of Sciences and the Ludwig Boltzmann Institute for Network Medicine (LBI-NetMed) at the University of Vienna showed. New microscope tracks electrical activity across the brain on the scale of milliseconds20:18 Within the brain, neurons compute by generating electrical impulses. These signals travel throughout neurons, which are in turn connected in vast networks that control brain functions such as sensory perception, memory formation, and control of movement. Outfitting cells in "invisibility cloaks" could offer a novel approach to treating diabetes20:18 Outfitting cells in "invisibility cloaks" may offer an easier, less damaging treatment pathway for people with diabetes undergoing cell therapy, according to researchers at Penn State. Study shows how the immune system behaves throughout pregnancy19:46 New research shows how the immune system actually behaves throughout pregnancy – cell by cell. In women with lupus, the immunological differences also persist after birth. Opening the black box of biological aging clocks19:46 What do "epigenetic clocks" actually measure? These lab tests have become popular tools for studying biological aging, or how the body's cellular function changes at a faster or slower rate than expected. Salk scientists use DNA origami to track molecular movements19:15 Scientists often describe life as a series of chemical reactions. Pallav Kosuri, PhD, describes life as movement. Chemical reactions are how you drive the movement of atoms, proteins, cells, and bodies-without movement, there is no life. Advanced wastewater treatments may create unexpected environmental risks19:14 Advanced wastewater treatment technologies are widely used to remove pollutants and pathogens before treated water is discharged or reused. |
