UC Irvine & UC Merced develops first-of-its-kind database of California鈥檚 obesity-related legislation to advance the evidence base for public health law and inform future policymaking so that impactful and inclusive solutions can be prioritized.
Pilot intervention looks at ways to bridge gaps in survivorship care, empowering young Latino men to manage distress and reclaim meaningful life goals after cancer treatment.
Black men on buses and trains 鈥� whether as passengers or transit workers 鈥� face hostile encounters that threaten their sense of safety and well-being, according to a new study by a Keough School of Global Affairs sociologist at the University of Notre Dame. By reinforcing racist tropes that they are dangerous or invisible, these encounters can also erode Black men鈥檚 sense of dignity and self-worth.
Alcohol use was the most common predictor of escalating cannabis vaping among youth and young adults, independent of demographic factors, according to research by UTHealth Houston published this month in the journal Social Science & Medicine.
Researchers at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams made a high-precision mass measurement of aluminum-22, reaching the 鈥減roton dripline鈥� of the nuclear chart. The project found that aluminum-22 formed a proton halo, where the last proton added is only loosely bound to the nucleus. This measurement helps scientists determine how tightly bound the atomic nuclei are as they get closer to the dripline.
As part of an effort to overcome the long-term energy-storage challenge, University of Wisconsin鈥揗adison engineers have invented a water-soluble chemical additive that improves the performance of a type of electrochemical storage called a bromide aqueous flow battery.

Prostate cancer is the second most commonly diagnosed cancer in men (behind skin cancer), with varying levels of aggressiveness. It鈥檚 also the second leading cause of cancer death, behind only lung cancer. A new study led by Yale Cancer Center researchers at Yale School Medicine found a substantial increase in the adoption of active surveillance (AS) and watchful waiting (WW) treatment strategies over the past decade 鈥� an encouraging trend for men seeking less invasive treatment options.
Protons and neutrons鈥搆nown collectively as nucleons鈥揳re both the building blocks of matter, but one of these particles has received a bit more attention in certain types of nuclear physics experiments. Until now. New results published in Physical Review Letters describe a first-time direct glimpse of the internal structure of the neutron thanks to the development of a special, 10-years-in-the-making detector installed in Experimental Hall B at Jefferson Lab.
Researchers from the University of Chicago recently developed a new approach for identifying new cellular RNA targets of snoRNAs. They uncovered thousands of previously unknown targets for snoRNAs in human cells and mouse brain tissues, including many that serve functions other than guiding rRNA modifications.
Potentially deadly mathematical errors are prevalent among mobile applications used in clinical and emergency room settings, but a team of researchers at New Jersey Institute of Technology's Ying Wu C...
A recent breakthrough in biotechnology promises to change the landscape of plant genetic engineering. Imagine a persistent invader鈥擜grobacterium鈥攍ong used to deliver genes into plants. Despite its historical success, the journey has been fraught with setbacks, especially with crops that launch fierce immune defenses. But now, scientists have equipped this bacterial 鈥渋nvader鈥� with powerful tools to conquer plant resistance, opening up new possibilities in agriculture and genetic research.
Normally found only in heavy metal bands or certain post-apocalyptic films, a 鈥渇lame-throwing guitar鈥� has now been spotted moving through space. Astronomers have captured movies of this extreme cosmic object using NASA鈥檚 Chandra X-ray Observatory and Hubble Space Telescope.
A recent study has unraveled the intricate cellular blueprint behind the iconic fragrance of Prunus mume flowers. Using state-of-the-art single-cell RNA sequencing, researchers have constructed a high-resolution map of gene expression within petal cells across blooming stages. This atlas not only identifies six key cell types but also pinpoints the genetic pathways responsible for floral scent production. These discoveries mark a significant leap forward in understanding floral scent biosynthesis and could open new doors to cultivating aromatic plant varieties and innovations in the fragrance industry.
A recent discovery has unveiled a key regulatory module in grapes that governs fruit set, a vital phase for determining yield and quality. This research sheds light on the molecular mechanisms influenced by N-(2-chloro-4-pyridyl)-N鈥�-phenylurea (CPPU), a plant hormone-like compound known for enhancing fruit set, and opens new doors for revolutionizing grape cultivation and productivity.
