Pioneering research has pinpointed key vacuolar transporters in citrus fruits that regulate taste by balancing citric acid and sugar levels. This discovery illuminates the genetic pathways controlling flavor, laying the groundwork for cultivating citrus varieties with optimized sweetness and acidity鈥攁 promising development for both consumers and the agricultural sector.
Coordinated power shutoffs could help control the wildfires spreading across New York and New Jersey, according to a Virginia Tech expert. These shutoffs could mitigate the risk posed by unseasonably dry conditions and challenging terrain, both of which have made containment efforts especially difficult, said Professor Ali Mehrizi-Sani, a Virginia Tech electrical engineering researcher.
At six years old, Luke Bucciarelli (pronounced BOO-cha-relli) already knows he wants to be a surgeon when he grows up. But not just any surgeon 鈥� a thoracic surgeon; someone who operates on organs in the chest, including the lungs, esophagus, trachea and heart.
Bryanna D. Vesely, DPM, MPH, performed the first minimally invasive Haglund's repair surgery on the Virginia Peninsula using the Arthrex MIS FiberTak Achilles SpeedBridge Implant Repair System. The surgery was performed Monday, November 11 at Mercy Bon Secours Mary Immaculate Hospital in Newport 麻豆传媒, Virginia.
Alfalfa, a globally significant forage crop, is now the focus of multi-omics database of M. sativa (MODMS), a pioneering multi-omics database aimed at accelerating genetic research and unlocking new insights into its agronomic potential. By integrating data from genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics, MODMS provides researchers a robust platform to explore the crop鈥檚 complex biological systems and potential applications.
As student absenteeism reaches record highs in schools across the United States, new research finds that student absences are linked to lower teacher job satisfaction, raising concerns that this may exacerbate growing teacher shortages.
Urgent action is needed, to prevent pneumonia deaths among high-risk groups, particularly children younger than five years and older people, noted the American Thoracic Society and its Forum of International Respiratory Societies (FIRS) partners. New effective preventive interventions are available, but these are still inaccessible in many low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).
A recent study reveals the critical role of sorbitol in driving age-dependent growth shifts in apple plants. Researchers have uncovered how sorbitol interacts with gibberellin signaling to transition growth from a rapid juvenile phase to a slower adult pattern. This discovery provides essential insights into the mechanisms controlling plant maturation and development.
Case Western Reserve University has a new offer for the 25 to 30 students each year who are named finalists for the prestigious Hertz Fellowship but are not ultimately selected as Hertz Fellows: matriculate at CWRU and receive full financial benefits.
Marina Konopleva, M.D., Ph.D., director of the Leukemia Program and co-director of the Blood Cancer Institute at the National Cancer Institute-designated Montefiore Einstein Comprehensive Cancer Center (MECCC), has joined forces with Break Through Cancer, a collaborative medical research foundation that supports teams of scientists as they advance treatments for some of the world鈥檚 deadliest cancers. Dr. Konopleva will play a pivotal role in the Eradicating Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) in Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML) TeamLab.
Vitamin D supplements may lower blood pressure in older people with obesity and taking more than the Institutes of Medicine鈥檚 (IOM) recommended daily dose does not provide additional health benefits, according to new research published in the Journal of the Endocrine Society.
The standard model for how galaxies formed in the early universe predicted that the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) would see dim signals from small, primitive galaxies. But data are not confirming the popular hypothesis that invisible dark matter helped the earliest stars and galaxies clump together.
Today, the Bronx Zoo announced that Idina Menzel, Tony Award-winner, actress, philanthropist and multi-platinum-selling singer/songwriter, will perform in the 98th Macy鈥檚 Thanksgiving Day Parade庐 on the zoo鈥檚 new 鈥淲ondrous World of Wildlife鈥� float.
Avails Medical, Inc., a pioneer in rapid antibiotic susceptibility diagnostic innovations, is pleased to announce the appointment of Dan Douglas as the new Vice President of Finance. Dan joins Avails with a wealth of experience as a dynamic finance leader, bringing extensive expertise in corporate finance, operational strategy, and analytics, honed in fast-paced startup environments.
A new poll looks at how grandparents are involved in their grandchildren's lives, and how this relates to mental health and lonelines.
Over the past year, Children鈥檚 Hospital Los Angeles has been one of the highest-volume centers in the nation for Elevidys gene therapy. So far, CHLA has treated 10 boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy with this gene transfer therapy鈥攁mong the most in the U.S.Leading these efforts at CHLA is Leigh Ramos-Platt, MD, Director of the Neuromuscular Disorders Center in the Neurological Institute at Children鈥檚 Hospital Los Angeles, which includes one of the largest programs in California for Duchenne.
Linguistics and computer science researchers at Tufts University have discovered some of the root causes of the inability of AI to engage in human-like conversation
An international research team has for the first time designed realistic photonic time crystals 鈥撯�� exotic materials that exponentially amplify light. The breakthrough opens up exciting possibilities across fields such as communication, imaging and sensing by laying the foundations for faster and more compact lasers, sensors and other optical devices.
Disrupted sleep cycles are a well known concern for human health and function, and now researchers have found similar impacts on insects. A new study has found that artificial light disrupts the circadian rhythms of honey bees and poses a threat to their essential role as pollinators.
