Trained and genetic differences could help the women survive the intense physiological stresses of free-diving—and could ultimately lead to better treatments for blood pressure disorders.
Disease modeling research suggests that for some cholera outbreaks, prescribing antibiotics more aggressively could slow or stop the spread of the disease and even reduce the likelihood of antibiotic resistance.
A team of researchers has used advanced DNA sequencing to develop the most comprehensive atlas yet of genetic change through generations, laying the foundations for new insights into the roots...
During this time of uncertainty, leadership is actively advocating for research and planning strategically for the future. We have developed guidelines and a worksheet to help researchers who have received...
Research has found that C. difficile, one of the most contagious hospital-acquired infections, spreads more than three times more than previously thought, moving covertly from surface to surface.
ELEVATE, one of 12 NIH-funded Maternal Health Research Centers of Excellence nationwide, aims to reduce maternal and fetal deaths. The center focuses on pregnant and postpartum women affected by substance...
The results could ultimately help doctors reduce the risk of type 1 diabetes—or potentially even restore pancreas function in adulthood—by providing gut microbes that help the pancreas grow and heal.
Researchers, doctors, and community members came together to improve understanding of the full health, social, and even environmental impacts of these medications.
A combination of human genetic analysis and research in flies identified the protective gene, which could ultimately lead to better therapies for people with the seizure disorder.
There may be up to a tenfold difference in risk for infants who are currently treated identically under clinical guidelines. The analysis is an important step toward more personalized care.
Cell biologist Bruce Edgar, recognized for his research on cell growth and proliferation, was elected to the prestigious National Academy of Sciences for his pioneering work and contributions to science.
