A comparison of two key research tools used by immunologists to study different types of T-cell receptor signals has identified important features of existing technologies that could allow scientists to better understand immune responses, in a new study led by scientists at the University of Birmingham. T cells form a crucial part of the immune […]
As per the findings, the socioeconomic status had a major role to play on how well the children performed at school. New research has indicated that children who are born and raised by same-sex parents may perform better at school, than those who are raised by different-sex parents.

As researchers and medical professionals work to develop new treatments for cancer, they face a variety of challenges. One is intratumor heterogeneity—the presence of multiple kinds of cancer cells within the same tumor. Often, these “mosaic” tumors include cells, such as polyploidal giant cancer cells, that have evolved to become aggressive and resistant to chemotherapy […]
Palliative care should extend across China and pay more attention to managing non-malignant disease—integrated within the country’s healthcare system and available to everyone who needs it, according to a new study. Researchers have found that, with rapidly aging populations, there is an increasing need for palliative care across Greater China—Hong Kong, Macao, mainland China and […]
In a new perspective piece “Transparency and reproducibility in artificial intelligence” published this week in the journal Nature, an international group of scientists including CUNY Graduate School of Public Health and Health Policy (CUNY SPH) Associate Professor Levi Waldron raised concerns about the lack of transparency in publication of artificial intelligence algorithms for health applications. […]
Neck gaiters DO work, study finds: Popular face coverings previously ruled ‘counterproductive’ blocked ‘100%’ of large infectious droplets in new tests A previous Duke University study found that fleece neck gaiters may actually spread more infectious particles by splitting them up and scattering them New unpublished Virginia Tech research suggests gaiters work just as well […]
It’s generally accepted health advice that adults of all ages should sit less, move more, and engage in regular exercise to feel better and reduce the risk of chronic diseases. However, when it comes to the brain and cognition, a new study of older adults from Colorado State University suggests that some sedentariness isn’t all […]
A new study out of the University of Chicago Medicine shows the overall rate of preoperative stress testing for hip and knee replacements is and has been decreasing consistently since 2006. Still, researchers found, 30,000 out of every 100,000 stress tests performed each year were unnecessary, as the tests didn’t decrease the frequency of complications […]
