A new study has quantified the risk for whale-ship collisions worldwide for four blue, fin, humpback and sperm whales. Researchers report that global shipping traffic overlaps with about 92% of these whale species鈥� ranges. Only about 7% of areas at highest risk for whale-ship collisions have measures in place to protect whales.
The standard treatment for head and neck cancer, cisplatin, can鈥檛 be given to some patients due to pre-existing conditions. A new study compares the efficacy of two alternatives: cetuximab, a monoclonal antibody, and durvalumab, an immune checkpoint inhibitor.
Rutgers researchers at the Brain Health Institute (BHI) and Center for Advanced Human Brain Imaging Research (CAHBIR) have uncovered how different types of brain cells work together to form large-scale functional networks in the human brain 鈥� interconnected systems that support everything from sensory processing to complex decision-making 鈥� paving the way for new insights into brain health and disease.
Transfer RNA (tRNA), a genetic molecule well known for its contribution to reading the instructions for building proteins, also plays a key role in regulating how long those instructions persist in cells, a new study by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers shows. The findings, published in Science, expand the understanding of the timing involved in the degradation of messenger RNA (mRNA), a vital mechanism for controlling gene activity, and could eventually have the potential to lead to new treatments for obesity, cancer, and other health conditions.
Hongjun Lin from New York University will present results on the acoustic characteristics of a physical model of the Parasaurolophus鈥� crest as part of the virtual 187th ASA Meeting. Lin created a physical setup made of tubes to represent a mathematical model that will allow researchers to discover what was happening acoustically inside the crest.
Researchers have discovered a link between certain genes and the number of opioid tablets that patients took after receiving surgery for torn ACLs. The insights support further evaluation of personalized pain management plans, which could help reduce unnecessary opioid subscribing. The investigators鈥� abstract received a Resident/Fellow Travel Award from the American Society of Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine (ASRA Pain Medicine) and will be presented at its upcoming 23rd Annual Pain Medicine Meeting in Las Vegas, NV.
Adolescents who snore frequently were more likely to exhibit behavior problems such as inattention, rule-breaking, and aggression, but they do not have any decline in their cognitive abilities, according to a new study conducted by researchers at the University of Maryland School of Medicine (UMSOM).
Rutgers University-New Brunswick undergraduate students in Yanhong Jin鈥檚 elective class, 鈥淔ood, Nutrition, and Health,鈥� find themselves becoming researchers 鈥� some of whom may get their work published.聽 Jin, a professor in the Department of Agricultural, Food and Resource Economics at the School of Environmental and Biological Sciences, provides her students an uncommon opportunity to conduct research as undergrads.
MSU expert: How AI can help people understand research and increase trust in science
In a session of the 187th ASA Meeting, Michael Stocker of Ocean Conservation Research will present work examining the circumstances surrounding the whale deaths off the coast of New Jersey in the winter of 2022-23, which prompted concern that survey work in the area somehow contributed to their deaths.
