Researchers have developed a new computational approach that enables more accurate selection of genes that characterize different cellular states from mRNA-seq data, offering a more interpretable way to analyze complex biological data. The study, published in Frontiers in Immunol

Two research teams at the Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Cardiovasculares Carlos III (CNIC) have developed a pioneering technique in Spain to characterize the proteome of individual cardiomyocytes—the cells responsible for heart contraction.

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a condition characterized by abdominal pain, bloating and changes in bowel movements, estimated to affect between 10% and 15% of people worldwide. Past studies suggest that in many cases this condition is accompanied by anxiety, an emotional stat

Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a psychiatric condition characterized by persistent feelings of sadness, a loss of interest in everyday activities, altered sleeping and/or eating patterns, low energy, and difficulty concentrating on tasks. While it is one of the most widesprea

Researchers at Cima and Clinica Universidad de Navarra have identified new molecular mechanisms underlying multiple myeloma. This type of hematologic cancer, which affects the bone marrow, is characterized by its resistance to treatment, leading to relapses in patients. The resea

Natural plant compounds known as polyphenols, found in berries, tea, cocoa, coffee and extra-virgin olive oil, may positively influence biological processes linked to Alzheimer's disease and other disorders characterized by the gradual loss of nerve cells, according to a review b

In the course of studying planets beyond our solar system (6,316 confirmed exoplanets and counting), scientists have discovered some very interesting systems. Consider TOI-201, a compact system populated by three bodies, including a brown dwarf, orbiting on the same plane. The sy

Wormlike parasites cause crickets to jump into streams, where the fatty insects nourish endangered fish. Ayano Medo and Takuya Sato sought to characterize the flow of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA)—a nutritious long-chain omega-3 fatty acid—through aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems

A research report launched today reveals that sponsorship is a critical part of progression into senior leadership roles because it teaches individuals how advancement actually works in practice. But only a small proportion of sponsorship relationships—less than a quarter—are cha

In a new study, published in the Journal of the Astronautical Sciences, Warwick researchers led an international effort to uncover some of the faintest debris in geosynchronous orbit ever observed, finding fragments as small as 5 centimeters (2 inches) and obtaining valuable data

The digital era is characterized by near-frictionless conversion of data into dollars—absent regulatory intervention, that is. Privacy laws such as the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) restrict corporations' use of personal information. Nonetheless, Stev
