Researchers found significant brain tissue loss in individuals with bipolar and unipolar depression, which may help understand the causes of mood disorders. The study's findings provide new information for developing more effective treatments.
Sarcoidosis is a mysterious disease affecting 30 people per 100,000 in the US, characterized by granulomas and inflammation. New research suggests shared environmental exposure may lead to the disease, which often affects young adults and has no cure.
Researchers from Northwestern University demonstrate a robot called Scooter that is programmed to refuse to go past a virtual surface. This innovation is part of a new class of collaborative robots called cobots, which are designed to work with humans safely and efficiently.
The current floods in North Dakota have broken multiple records, including a 100-year-old record of 85,000 cubic feet per second. The Red River's predicted crest is expected to reach 54 feet, posing significant threats to emergency managers and evacuation orders.
A group of genes has been discovered that makes wild tomatoes resistant to wilt disease, allowing breeders to speed up the development of new disease-resistant varieties. The findings also enable the design of genetically engineered crops with optimal resistance properties.
Researchers found a significant delay in disease progression with selegiline and Vitamin E treatment, particularly among those with moderately severe disease. The drugs showed promise in reducing symptoms, but further studies are needed to confirm their effectiveness.
