Living alone is positively associated with common mental disorders, regardless of age and sex, according to a new study.
Scientists have demonstrated that nickel 78, a neutron-rich 'doubly magic' isotope of nickel with 28 protons and 50 neutrons, still maintains a spherical shape that allows it to be relativel..
In experiments in mice, researchers say they have developed a technique that facilitates the precise placement of cancer drugs at their intended targets in the brain.
A systematic examination of the tumor and the tissue surrounding it — particularly normal cells in that tissue, called fibroblasts — has revealed a new treatment target that could potentially preven..
Scientists have discovered a new method for quickly and efficiently mapping the vast network of connections among neurons in the brain. Researchers combined infrared laser stimulation techniques with ..
Researchers have looked at a little-understood type of cell death called ferroptosis. They found ferroptosis occurs in tumor cells and plays a role in cancer immunity, suggesting the potential of targ..
For decades scientists have been searching for a way to watch a live broadcast of the brain. Neurons send and receive massive amounts of information — toe itches! Fire hot! Garbage smells! — at spee..
So far Denisovans were only known from a small collection of fossil fragments from Denisova Cave in Siberia. A research team now describes a 160,000-year-old hominin mandible from Xiahe in China. Usin..
Many chronic disorders arise from misdirected immune responses. Scientists now show that neutrophils exacerbate atherosclerosis by inducing smooth muscle-cell death and that a tailored peptide inhibit..
