The body鈥檚 cells respond to stress鈥攖oxins, mutations, starvation or other assaults鈥攂y pausing normal functions to focus on conserving energy, repairing damaged components and boosting defenses.
Brain implants hold immense promise for restoring function in patients with paralysis, epilepsy and other neurological disorders. But a team of researchers at Case Western Reserve University has discovered that bacteria can invade the brain after a medical device is implanted, contributing to inflammation and reducing the device鈥檚 long-term effectiveness.
Researchers at Case Western Reserve University have discovered molecules that present the potential to drive the development of gastric cancer鈥攁mong the world鈥檚 deadliest forms of the disease.

Case Western Reserve University researchers are testing an AI-powered robot named Ruyi to support seniors with early-stage Alzheimer鈥檚.
Researchers at Case Western Reserve University (CWRU) and University Hospitals (UH) will use state-of-the-art medical technologies they invented鈥攁nd licensed to Lucid Diagnostics Inc.鈥攖o detect esophageal precancer.
CLEVELAND鈥擳he process of separating useful molecules from mixtures of other substances accounts for 15% of the nation鈥檚 energy, emits 100 million tons of carbon dioxide and costs $4 billion annually. In a new study, researchers at Case Western Reserve University have found these manufactured separation materials don鈥檛 function as intended because the pores are so packed with polymer they become blocked. That means the separations are inefficient and unnecessarily expensive.
Nearly every disease has an inflammatory component, but blood tests can鈥檛 pinpoint inflammation in specific organs or tissues in the human body.
In a new study, researchers at Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine have determined that a protein called NF-kB c-Rel can intensify the symptoms of psoriasis when activated by signals from the body鈥檚 immune system. Understanding how 鈥渃-Rel鈥� affects skin inflammation could lead to new treatments.
Youth in juvenile detention centers face suicide rates significantly higher than their peers, driven by isolation, untreated mental health conditions and systemic barriers to care, according to the U.S. Office of Justice Programs. But for LGBTQ+ youth involved in child welfare and juvenile justice systems, the outcomes are even worse.
CLEVELAND鈥擮n Tuesday, Jan. 14, President Biden awarded nearly 400 scientists and engineers the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE), the highest honor bestowed by the U.S. government on outstanding scientists and engineers early in their careers. Four of the awardees are Case Western Reserve University engineering faculty: A. Bolu Ajiboye, Christine Duval, Burcu Gurkan and Steve Majerus.
Researchers at Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine have discovered how specific protein regions contribute to breast cancer.
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD), which affects about 200 million people worldwide and can result in legal blindness, impairs an area of the eye (retina) used for reading, driving and many other critical daily tasks. A new study of large existing patient datasets indicates genetic and demographic factors that increase the risk for developing AMD. In the study, recently published in Nature Genetics, a team of scientists worked with the Million Veteran Program (MVP) of the VA Office of Research and Development, a large biobank of veterans recruited at more than 60 U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) medical centers nationally, to examine demographic, lifestyle, clinical and genetic risk profiles for AMD.
Diamond, often celebrated for its unmatched hardness and transparency, has emerged as an exceptional material for high-power electronics and next-generation quantum optics. Diamond can be engineered to be as electrically conductive as a metal, by introducing impurities such as the element boron.
Researchers at Case Western Reserve University, University Hospitals and Houston Methodist will harness the power of artificial intelligence (AI) to more accurately predict risk of heart failure and other cardiovascular events, including estimating when an adverse event might occur, by developing an AI model that 鈥渓earns鈥� from patient scans.
As law schools nationwide grapple with declining racial diversity among students following the U.S. Supreme Court鈥檚 2023 ruling against race-based admissions,聽Case Western Reserve University School of Law聽is bucking the trend.
As a longtime president of CBS, Frank Stanton was a staunch defender of the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, firmly believing in the freedom of expression and the role of the media to inform the public and hold power accountable. Today, nearly 20 years after his death, the Stanton Foundation carries that legacy forward.
Rechargeable lithium-ion batteries power everything from electric vehicles to wearable devices. But new research from Case Western Reserve University suggests that a more sustainable and cost-effective alternative may lie in zinc-based batteries.
