An evolutionary biologists have discovered a new trophic interaction — the first example of a parasitic plant attacking a parasitic insect on a shared host plant. The find could point to new methods for controlling agricultural pests and perhaps fight…

Researchers have detailed the effect of radiation exposure on the development of hormone deficiency in pediatric and young adult patients treated for brain tumors.

A new biosensor allows researchers to track oxygen levels in real time in ‘organ-on-a-chip’ systems, making it possible to ensure that such systems more closely mimic the function of real organs. This is essential if organs-on-a-chip hope to achieve th…

Osteoporosis is estimated to affect 200 million women across the world. In recent decades, several authors have analyzed the impact of osteoporosis on the risk of cognitive decline.

Men assign less importance to care-oriented careers than women do, possibly because men internalize different values than women, suggests new research.

People with Type 2 diabetes who don’t sleep well could need more time to heal their wounds, according to a new study.

In a pioneering study, scientists have demonstrated that the use of chemically-modified DNA aptamers as protein markers allows one to enhance the power of super-resolution fluorescence microscopy as an imaging tool.

Fourteen years after one-year fellowship programs were created to give primary care physicians the clinical skills to better manage diabetes and its complications, new research finds resistance among payers and other physicians may slow growth of the f…

Researchers have found that fragments of the protein pepsinogen, an enzyme used to digest food in the stomach, can kill bacteria such as Salmonella and E. coli. Such peptides could potentially be developed as new antibiotics.
