Scientists have made a significant discovery in the fight against cancer. They've created new compounds that can destroy specific forms of a protein called NSD2, which plays a role in cancer development. NSD2 comes in three versions due to a process called alternative splicing: long, short, and RE-I
Atomic Force Microscopy, or AFM, is like a tiny detective in the world of biology. It works by gently prodding surfaces with a super-sharp tip, giving scientists an incredibly close look at things too small to see with regular microscopes. Over time, scientists have gotten better at understanding ho
Ever wondered how certain T cells can switch their roles in the body? Let's dive into how T-follicular helper (TFH) cells can transform into T-regulatory type 1 (TR1) cells. These changes happen when the body is continuously exposed to foreign substances, a process known as chronic antigenic stimula
Researchers believe that the movement at a fracture site might greatly impact the healing process of complex distal femur fractures. Tracking this motion in real life is tricky, so scientists use something called finite element modeling to get a better understanding of the mechanical environment aro
Hinsdale High School District 86 recently made headlines by hiring a second law firm, Engler, Callaway, Baasten & Sraga, to handle specific cases. This news comes just months after the board selected Robbins Schwartz as their main legal counsel. One key area this new firm will handle? Special educat
