Disease experts have largely focused on how we got to where we are now with coronavirus infections. Improved data collection and sharing can enhance projections of what’s to come.

The bioluminescent Anomalops katoptron can coordinate its schooling behavior after dark. 

The three-dimensional cell cultures are still in the development phase, but researchers are excited about their use to predict patients’ responses to various treatment options.

Watch a hawk close in on a target.

Researchers develop a machine-learning tool for toxicity analyses that is more consistent in predicting chemical hazards than assays on animals.

The young UT Southwestern professor studied cell fate in yeast and was about to publish the first results from his lab.

A new microscopy program requires no fluorescent markers to identify cell type, nuclei, and other characteristics.

Influenza cases normally top out in February. This year brought an early start and an early peak, but how long flu season will remain is uncertain. 

Modeling gives insight to the critical role of streamflow conditions when assessing the concentrations of endocrine disrupting compounds.  

This 3-D model of the mouse genome depicts the interactions between chromosomes within an embryonic stem cell.

This 3-D model of human intestinal cells could help scientists develop new antimicrobial drugs and therapeutics.

A modification to traditional docking software enables the examination of a ligand’s passage into its receptor.

A software upgrade follows ligands step-wise into their binding sites on receptors.

Choosing the right model, be it 3-D or 2-D, requires wading through varied cell sources, cell types, and cell culture conditions.

Analyzing resting brain scans, researchers can anticipate the brain activities of a person performing a range of tasks. 

The accumulation of fat within skeletal muscle, as happens with obesity, diminishes muscle performance.

A predictive population model suggests that lion populations in West, Central, and East Africa are likely to be halved in the next 20 years.
