Using fMRI, new vision study finds promising model for restoring cone function
Researchers identified a retinal disease to evaluate the success of gene and cell replacement therapy.
Female reproductive milestones may be risk factors for diabetes and high cholesterol later in...
A new review of available evidence suggests that female reproductive characteristics may be overlooked as risk factors that contribute to later metabolic dysfunction.
Scientists design a two-legged robot powered by muscle tissue
Compared to robots, human bodies are flexible, capable of fine movements, and can convert energy efficiently into movement. Drawing inspiration from human gait, researchers...
Brain drain: Nasopharyngeal lymphatics found to be crucial for cerebrospinal fluid outflow
Researchers have uncovered a distinctive network of lymphatic vessels at the back of the nose that plays a critical role in draining cerebrospinal fluid...
Puffed-up MOFs for improved drug delivery
The spongelike structure of metal organic frameworks (MOFs) allows these polymers to possibly carry and deliver a range of therapeutic compounds. Now, researchers treated...
