Most U.S. military veterans who have used psychedelics reported in a recent study that they pursued the substances for healing or spiritual exploration, and over 80% said they benefited from the experience 鈥 even those who had challenging outcomes.
Mount Sinai researchers have discovered for the first time a neural mechanism for memory integration that stretches across both time and personal experience.
Scientists have demonstrated a new way to use high-energy particle smashups at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) to reveal subtle details about the shapes of atomic nuclei. The method is complementary to lower energy techniques for determining nuclear structure. It will add depth to scientists鈥 understanding of the nuclei that make up the bulk of visible matter.
Infants born more than three months prematurely are at high risk for lung disease 鈥 called bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) 鈥 that often persists through childhood, manifesting as wheezing or abnormalities in lung or heart function.
Cedars-Sinai has earned the highest level of recognition from the College of Healthcare Information Management Executives (CHIME) as part of its annual Digital Health Most Wired (DHMW) Survey, which evaluates the technological capabilities of healthcare organizations.
The Cardiovascular Research Foundation庐 (CRF庐) is pleased to announce that Symbiosis has won the TCT庐 2024 Shark Tank Innovation Competition for its development of an adjustable transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) system. The competition took place during Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutics庐 (TCT庐), the annual scientific symposium of CRF庐 and the world鈥檚 premier educational meeting specializing in interventional cardiovascular medicine, October 27-30 in Washington, DC. The winner was also presented with the Jon DeHaan Foundation Award for Innovation in Cardiology.
In a novel study that identified male chromosome genetic material in the intestines of female patients undergoing fecal transplants, researchers at Johns Hopkins Medicine say they have significantly expanded scientific understanding of how some of these transplants may succeed and work.
Researchers used municipal solid waste incineration fly ash (MSWI FA), blast furnace slag (BFS), and desulfurization gypsum (DFG) as raw materials to prepare low-carbon, low-cost cementitious materials with no leaching toxicity. This is a first in achieving not only the disposal of hazardous waste but also showing significant potential in the field of backfilling mined-out areas.
As primary care for Koos grade I vestibular schwannomas, stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is superior to observation with regard to tumor control and preservation of neurologic function, according to the results of an international, multicenter retrospective study.
The growing focus on enhancing color quality in LCDs,OLEDs and Micro-LED has spurred significant advancements in color-conversion displays. This article provides a comprehensive review of different types of color conversion methods and color conversion materials.
En un estudio publicado en la revista ACS Sensors, investigadores informan del desarrollo de sensores ultrasensibles a nanoescala que, en pruebas a peque帽a escala, distinguen un cambio clave en la qu铆mica del aliento de personas con c谩ncer de pulm贸n.
This research introduces new techniques to significantly improve the field of view of three-photon microscopy. Scientists can now observe the activity of large groups of neurons in deep brain regions with unprecedented detail. This advancement enables a deeper understanding of brain function and neural networks.
Metasurfaces are formed by engineering a glass surface with an array of microscopic features, or meta-atoms. Although different optical functionalities can be obtained by changing only the pattern, the resulting metasurfaces often lack the necessary efficiency for many applications. In this report, scientists from Corning and Harvard University collaborate to demonstrate an inverse-design method that optimizes efficiency while respecting fabrication constraints. These results represent a step forward in making practical metasurfaces for broader applications.
A new study from researchers at Wilmer Eye Institute, Johns Hopkins Medicine explains not only why some patients with wet age-related macular degeneration (or 鈥渨et鈥 AMD) fail to have vision improvement with treatment, but also how an experimental drug could be used with existing wet AMD treatments to save vision.
