An unusual leopard gecko that naturally develops aggressive tumors may become an important new model for cancer research. Scientists found its tumors share key genetic changes with human cancers, offering a rare opportunity to study the disease as it develops naturally.

Bones preserved in underwater caves offer a rare and powerful window into the past—but until now, researchers have had limited tools to understand how the remains of extinct megafauna and other animals came to rest in their underwater graveyards. New research led by Griffith Univ

Amid all the advances in modern medicine, much of the science behind a woman's menstrual cycle remains mysterious, so a team at Hudson Institute of Medical Research is aiming to change that. Professor Caroline Gargett is an expert in the human endometrium, the highly regenerative

By analyzing genetic data from nearly 2 million people, researchers have unlocked a new scientific understanding of Ménière's disease, a chronic and often debilitating inner ear disorder. A team from the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania found evidence

A group of researchers from the Technion and the United States reports a breakthrough in MRI scanning in a paper published in Nature Communications. The researchers developed an innovative method that accelerates and enhances MRI scans for breast cancer imaging, a disease diagnos

CADASIL, which stands for "cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy," is a hereditary disease that damages the brain's small blood vessels, causing recurrent strokes. Over time, CADASIL leads to a decline in cognitive function and

University of Louisville researchers have discovered how a naturally occurring microbial compound may help protect the gut and support future treatment strategies for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

The autoimmunity associated with type 1 diabetes often begins in the first years of life, and the diagnosis of type 2 diabetes is rapidly rising among children and teens.

A breakthrough in biomedical engineering could help pave the way for tiny implantable devices capable of diagnosing, monitoring and treating a wide range of health conditions. An international team of researchers led by the University of Glasgow has created a new type of ultra-sm

University of Queensland researchers have developed a drug that activates a hard-to-target immune receptor—a breakthrough that could lead to new treatments for neurodegenerative conditions like motor neuron disease (MND).

A doctor's confidence, the design of a clinic and even the language used to explain a treatment may shape a patient's belief in their care, according to new QUT research published in the Journal of Psychosomatic Research.

One of the uncomfortable truths about multiple sclerosis is that the part of the brain likely to reveal the most about the disease and how a patient will be affected has been mostly invisible to clinicians.
