St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and Baylor College of Medicine scientists show how ZFTA-RELA fusions hijack developmental programs to drive a type of pediatric brain cancer.
Monash University and Seaport Therapeutics have developed a new approach to delivering drug molecules that piggybacks onto natural fat absorption pathways to allow oral delivery of some drugs previously requiring injection.
An expansive clinical trial led by University of South Florida researchers and aimed at delaying the onset of dementia continues to receive major federal support with an additional $2.8 million from the National Institutes of Health. The funding helps to continue research into whether computerized brain training exercises can reduce the risk of cognitive impairment and dementia such as Alzheimer’s disease. The Preventing Alzheimer’s with Cognitive Training (PACT) study has now received more than $50 million in federal grant funding.
New studies published in the American Journal of Epidemiology and Epidemiology found that people residing in redlined neighborhoods—neighborhoods that were subjected to the historic practice of mortgage lending discrimination by the federal government—were less likely to conceive than those who lived in neighborhoods the government deemed favorable for mortgage lending.
Today, researchers describe major advances in the understanding of the development of the neocortex —layer-by-layer and cell-by-cell—thanks to a pioneering database developed at the University of Maryland School of Medicine (UMSOM) that combines multiomic data from 188 different studies. The revolutionary and publicly accessible database—called the Neuroscience Multi-Omic Analytics (NeMO Analytics)—is helping scientists make groundbreaking discoveries about the brain and disease development by using vast amounts of human, non-human primate, mouse, and organoid data.
