Ultrasound waves stopped cancer cell spread and reduced the number of tumor-protective cells in vitro, highlighting the utility of the non-invasive therapy.

This postdoctoral researcher explores auditory nervous system development by studying the auditory brainstem, ion channels, and neuron modeling.

Identification of gene variants that affect the activity of neuronal sodium channels could help develop targeted therapies for patients suffering from excessive sweating. 

Sequencing plant and animal DNA in municipal wastewater detected real-time sociodemographic food habits, paving the way for better public health monitoring.

This postdoctoral researcher investigates how ovarian cancer cells survive immune attacks by macrophages during a destructive process called trogocytosis.

As conflicts escalate, resource shortages and patient safety force researchers in Middle Eastern countries to make difficult decisions about clinical trials.

This postdoctoral researcher investigates how injury-induced non-coding RNAs protect brain cells from damage after ischemic stroke.

Scientists are exploring why high temperatures may increase brain stroke risk, who is most at risk, and how the threat may grow in a warming world.

Thousands of cyclosporiasis cases across dozens of US states triggered investigations, but the exact contamination source remains elusive.

A new peptide-based vaccine elicited antigen-specific T cell responses in high-risk patients, demonstrating proof of concept for PDAC intervention.
