A team of experts from McMaster University has led the creation of Canada鈥檚 first-ever comprehensive guidelines for diagnosing, managing, preventing, and treating post COVID-19 condition (PCC), more commonly known as long COVID.
New research from the University of Chicago shows how a specially trained population of immune cells keeps the peace by preventing other immune cells from attacking their own.
Scientists have long held that electricity is carried by individual electrons with discrete charges moving in a metal, even in the case of electrons clumped into quasiparticles. However, 鈥渟trange metals鈥� fail to obey this paradigm. Researchers have observed a radical quantum blurring of electrons in strange metal into a featureless liquid, potentially pointing toward a new theory of electrical transport.
Roughly 200 million women around the world suffer from endometriosis, a condition that causes tissue from the lining of the uterus to grow in places outside of the uterus. The condition can be exceptionally painful and contributes to infertility.
From laundry detergent to dishwasher tablets, cleaning products are an indispensable part of life. Yet the chemicals that make these products so effective can be difficult to break down or could even trigger ecosystem-altering algal blooms.
In the next steps of the five-year research and education alliance between the Monell Chemical Senses Center and the Singapore Institute of Food and Biotechnology Innovation, a team of scientists from Singapore visited the Monell Center to learn more about Monell science and scientists and plan potential corporate and academic collaborations for the ongoing partnership.
As of early 2025, tuberculosis cases are increasing in the U.S. This disease, often shortened to TB, causes significant lung damage and, if not treated, is almost always lethal. World TB Day on March 24 raises awareness about the disease and commemorates Robert Koch鈥檚 discovery of the source bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis. More than a century later, scientists continue refining TB diagnosis methods and treatment strategies , some of which are in these four ACS journal articles.
Johns Hopkins Medicine scientists say they have shed new light on how bacteria protect themselves from certain phage invaders 鈥� by seizing genetic material from weakened, dormant phages and using it to 鈥渧accinate鈥� themselves to elicit an immune response.
If you鈥檝e ever noticed how memories from the same day seem connected while events from weeks apart feel separate, a new study reveals the reason: Our brains physically link memories that occur close in time not in the cell bodies of neurons, but rather in their spiny extensions called dendrites.
Children鈥檚 Hospital Los Angeles Music Therapist Sarah Nolan, MT-BC, NICU-MT uses music to promote babies鈥� healing, development, and well-being. But parents should understand that it鈥檚 not enough to cue up a Spotify playlist of lullabies and go on to other tasks.
The ability to influence others can often mean the difference between success and missed opportunity. But, in contemporary organizations that are flatter and more cross-functional today, the reach of formal job ranks and titles becomes increasingly limited and less receptive to incoming generations.
New study shows that dysfunction of protective immune cells in GI tract may contribute to onset of inflammation in Crohn鈥檚 disease
In a groundbreaking study on the synthesis of cellulose 鈥� a major constituent of all plant cell walls 鈥� a team of Rutgers University-New Brunswick researchers has captured images of the microscopic process of cell-wall building continuously over 24 hours with living plant cells, providing critical insights that may lead to the development of more robust plants for increased food and lower-cost biofuels production.
Energy-hungry Artificial Intelligence 鈥榟as an unsustainable impact in terms of CO2 emissions; training large deep learning models (such as GPT and BERT) has a significant environmental impact, in fact training a model such as GPT-3 (175 billion parameters) required 355 GPU-years (the GPU is the type of processor used for AI), costing an estimated $4.6 million in energy alone and consuming around 1300 megawatt-hours (MWh) for training alone, equivalent to the annual consumption of 130 homes in the US.
