A risk model that combines a mammographic artificial intelligence (AI) risk score with polygenic and clinical risk scores more accurately identifies women at high risk of developing breast cancer than clinical risk scores used alone, finds a new Kaiser Permanente study. The study

A parasitic worm might be the impetus behind a new generation of medicine. In a recent review in published in Clinical & Translational Immunology, Neima Briggs, MD, Ph.D., instructor of medicine (infectious diseases) at Yale School of Medicine, found that certain types of parasit

A newly developed open-source tool designed for rigorous reanalysis of genomic data is highly effective at detecting new rare disease diagnoses. The tool's ability to frequently and automatically reexamine stored DNA data will ensure more timely answers for hundreds of families.

Anyone who speaks more than one language knows the feeling of expressing the same thought through entirely different linguistic lenses. A new study by researchers at Rice University and Baylor College of Medicine reveals that the key to this translation ability is a shared geomet

Our cells rely on tightly regulated signaling pathways to control when they grow, divide and survive. When these regulatory systems are disrupted, cells can acquire the ability to grow uncontrollably and become cancerous. One of the most important cancer-related signaling molecul

The liver is one of the few organs capable of regenerating after surgery—a remarkable ability that makes lifesaving procedures possible for thousands of patients each year. But not every liver regenerates as expected. Some patients develop post-hepatectomy liver failure, a seriou

Through interdepartmental collaboration, a young woman's quality of life and ability to walk were restored following the laparoscopic removal of a rare, benign tumor of neurological origin in the lesser pelvis, known as a schwannoma (also called a neurinoma). In the Central and E

Fear is often thought of as a negative emotion but is actually a natural protective response to perceived threats or danger. It helps us survive. When we experience a situation that causes fear, it becomes stored in our brain as a fear memory. These fear memories prevent us from

The transition to hybrid work has improved the psychosocial work environment among white-collar employees, according to new research from Umeå University. Positive effects include more accessible leadership, greater autonomy over work tasks and an increased ability to complete wo

A molecule linked to chronic inflammation disrupts the brain's ability to create new neurons, uncovering a pathway with therapeutic potential for neurodegenerative diseases and neurological conditions. The King's College London study, published in Nature Communications, offers in

A study suggests babies' brains recognize music from as young as 3 months of age, while spontaneous movements to music emerge by their first birthday and their ability to match movements to it develops later.

A team at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center has identified a novel metabolic pathway that plays a key role in enabling cancer to progress through gene activation. In a new study published in the journal Nature Communications, the researchers show that shutting down the pat
