A dangerous fungus, Candida auris, is causing alarm as it spreads across the United States and beyond. This fungus, often called a "superbug, " is becoming more resistant to treatments and is particularly harmful to those already sick or with weak immune systems. The fungus was first found in 2009
Peptides like CJC-1295 and Ipamorelin are hot topics in research circles. They are known for boosting natural growth hormone release without injecting synthetic hormones directly. This has sparked interest in the supplement world, leading to the creation of stacks designed to support similar biologi
The Arts & Humanities Citation Index (A&HCI) is a key tool for assessing research quality, especially in religion studies. However, it has some significant blind spots that could skew our understanding of the field. For starters, the number of religion-related records in the A&HCI has remained rela
ALKBH5, a protein that removes a specific chemical tag from RNA, is known to make head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) more aggressive. But how exactly it does this has been a mystery. Now, researchers have uncovered a new pathway involving ALKBH5, a long non-coding RNA called NEAT1, and tw
Deep in the past, around 99 million years ago, tiny creatures like ants and flies faced a grim fate. They were infected by fungi that still exist today. These fungi took over their bodies and minds, turning them into zombies before killing them. This is not a scary story, but a real discovery made b
Heart disease is a major health concern, and scientists are constantly searching for better ways to predict and prevent it. One recent study used a special type of scan called CCTA to examine how blood moves through the heart's arteries. This scan provides a highly detailed view of the heart's blood
In the world of cancer research, scientists are always on the lookout for new ways to stop cancer cells from growing and spreading. One recent study focused on a protein called PCGF1. This protein is part of a larger group of proteins known as Polycomb Group proteins. These proteins play a big role
Epilepsy is not just random; it follows patterns. This is where chronobiology comes in. It's the study of how our bodies keep time, and it's helping us understand why seizures happen when they do. Seizures don't just happen out of the blue. They follow cycles. This is a big deal because it means we
Ever notice how you slip back into your old family role when you're all together? It's like a script you can't shake off. Maybe you're the one who always organizes everything, or perhaps you're the one who stirs up trouble. These roles stick around, even when we think we've grown out of them. Psych
Up on Mount Hamilton, a historic telescope is in trouble. A fierce storm on Christmas morning tore open the dome housing the Great Refractor telescope. This telescope, built way back in the 1880s, is a big deal in astronomy. It's still a star attraction, drawing crowds to peek through its lens. But
