Invisible threads: How our environment quietly shapes disease
From the air we breathe to the food we eat, we are constantly exposed to thousands of chemicals—yet how these exposures affect our health has remained surprisingly difficult to understand. A new study led by researchers at the CeMM Research Center for Molecular Medicine of the Au
Why the back? How stroking calms infants and mouse pups
Across cultures, the way we soothe an unsettled baby tends to look much the same: hold them close and gently rub their back. The act is so familiar that it's easy to forget how little is actually understood about why it works.
AI tool can identify biological profiles associated with thrombosis risk
Two people may be the same age and have similar family histories or risk factors, yet only one of them may develop thrombosis. To better understand why this occurs, researchers from the Complex Disease Genomics Unit at the Sant Pau Research Institute (IR Sant Pau) and the Biomedi
New study reveals how same day care can ease NHS emergency pressures
A new study led by the University of Sheffield and published in BMJ Open has found that up to one-third of A&E attendances and two-fifths of acute admissions could potentially be managed through same-day emergency care (SDEC) and community settings—keeping patients safe and treat
Electric fields could organize neural activity trial by trial during memory tasks
It's a fact of life that the electrical activity of neurons will vary during the same task, even when the ultimate outcome is the same. A new study shows that a lot of ongoing fluctuations in the brain's activity can be explained by the influence local electric fields exert on th
Australian cancer trials are getting worse at reporting sex differences, putting patients
Women with cancer may not have the same chance of cure or quality of life as men—yet fewer than 2% of Australian cancer clinical trials report results separately for men and women. Women are also more likely to experience severe side effects from cancer treatment, including immun
After the rupture: How communities carry collective trauma and find healing
When tragedy strikes, entire communities can be left reeling. A UNSW researcher says recovery from collective trauma depends on the same force that often causes the harm: the actions of people.
Brain imaging reveals how neural networks coordinate multiple streams at once
Working with concurrent electroencephalogram and functional magnetic resonance imaging technology at the Beckman Institute's Biomedical Imaging Center, postdoctoral researcher Suhnyoung Jun and her colleagues have investigated how the brain connectome's dynamics unfold across dif
Brain-body connection: Expert shares tips to reduce risk of cognitive decline, Alzheimer's
The same lifestyle choices that reduce your risk of heart disease, diabetes and cancer can also reduce your risk of cognitive decline. Bryan Woodruff, M.D., a cognitive neurologist at Mayo Clinic in Arizona, explains the brain-body connection, lifestyle changes to foster brain he
Do your dreams have smells? New study on 'blind minds' reveals vast differences in imagina
It's common to think we all have similar experiences of life. But the more we learn about other people's hidden thoughts, the more evidence there is that this is untrue. For instance, not everyone has the same ability to have imagined sensations. Most people can visualize—they ca
The same sounds are mapped similarly in the human and mouse brain, study finds
While exploring the world around them, both humans and other animals continuously interpret information they pick up with their sight, hearing, touch and other senses. Neuroscience research suggests that the brain does not individually process every single sensory experience, but
