It could be the world's tiniest EEG electrode cap, created to measure activity in a brain model the size of a pen dot. Its designers expect the device to lead to better understanding of neural disorders and how potentially dangerous chemicals affect the brain…
Our many different organ systems are in constant communication with each other. During exercise, for example, muscles send out signals to fat and liver tissue to release their energy sources.
Monkeypox infections continue to rise globally, with more than 35,000 cases across 92 countries and territories, and 12 deaths, the head of the World Health Organization (WHO) reported on Wednesday.
The study found that contrary to the notion that the Omicron variant is mild, Omicron is associated with similar neurological and psychiatric risks as Delta that the World Health Organization (WHO) had declared a variant of concern.
Patients with normal oxygenation levels who were treated for possible pneumonia experienced similar outcomes with an “ultrashort” course of antibiotics compared with a longer course, researchers reported recently.
Patients with prior COVID may be twice as likely to have unhealthy endothelial cells that line the inside of the heart and blood vessels, according to newly pub
A new multicenter trial has used a new ablation technique for patients with ventricular tachycardia, an abnormally rapid heart rhythm that is a leading cause of sudden cardiac death worldwide.
When expensive medicines that are proven to prevent HIV acquisition are available through employer-sponsored health insurance (ESI), annual earnings for men in same-sex couples decline and part-time employment increases. The labor market effects are largest f…
A pioneering genomic surveillance study has provided the clearest picture yet of the arms race between Streptococcus pneumoniae, the bacterium responsible for a range of illnesses such as pneumonia and meningitis, and the vaccines designed to protect against …
A new preclinical study by Weill Cornell Medicine investigators found that certain bacteria in the gut may reduce susceptibility to SARS-CoV-2 infection, improve the immune response and prevent blood clots that can occur in severe COVID-19 illness.
In the first year and a half of the COVID-19 pandemic, public funding played a major role in the development of COVID-19 therapeutics and vaccines, according to recent research published in JAMA Network Open.
A group of scientists have been successful in their call for an urgent renaming of the monkeypox virus, as the name gives the impression that the disease is an African problem because monkeys are not always associated with Western countries.
