University at Buffalo researchers, alongside the Jackson Laboratory, found that the gene responsible for starch digestion (AMY1) may have first duplicated over 800,000 years ago, predating human agriculture and allowing early humans to better process starchy foods. By analyzing ancient genomes,…
University Research | University at Buffalo - The State University of New YorkA University of Rochester researcher highlights both the potential and limitations of AI-generated deepfake videos, noting that while the technology is advancing, generating realistic video remains challenging due to the complexity of synchronizing visuals and audio.
University Research | University of RochesterNYU researchers found that our brains can detect basic sentence structure in as little as 130 milliseconds, similar to how we quickly recognize visual scenes. This rapid processing ability allows the brain to grasp sentence structure almost instantaneously, even correcting minor errors, which may…
University Research | New York UniversityResearchers at Stony Brook University's Renaissance School of Medicine used neuromelanin-sensitive MRI to study young adults, finding elevated neuromelanin levels in the midbrain of those with a history of substance use, with a notably stronger association in young women. This study highlights the…
University Research | Stony Brook University - The State University of New YorkUniversity of Kansas physicist Daniel Tapia Takaki and his team, working with CERN’s ALICE experiment, discovered evidence of gluonic quantum fluctuations within heavy nuclei, suggesting the presence of "gluonic hotspots" at the subnucleon level. This breakthrough, published in Physical Review…
University Research | The University of KansasUniversity at Buffalo researcher Elizabeth Bowen, PhD, has pioneered an exploration of how climate change may impact individuals recovering from addiction, emphasizing how social, economic, and environmental disruptions could challenge recovery resources, particularly for marginalized groups. Bowen…
University Research | University at Buffalo - The State University of New YorkResearchers at Tufts University School of Medicine and the Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences have identified a small molecule inhibitor that corrects the molecular cause of CTNNB1 syndrome, a rare genetic disorder affecting motor and cognitive function. In mouse and human cell models, this…
University Research | Tufts UniversityNASA generated a $75.6 billion boost to the United States economy in FY23, according to a new report.
NASA | Leading Research Universities ReportResearchers from Yale’s Department of Psychiatry have identified over 100 genes linked to anxiety by analyzing genetic data from over 1 million participants worldwide. This large-scale study, published in Nature Genetics, sheds light on how genetic predispositions contribute to anxiety disorders…
