Molecular, genetic mechanisms of microglia predispose individuals to Alzheimer's: study
Mount Sinai researchers contend they have achieved an “unprecedented” understanding of the genetic and molecular mechanisms in human microglia, immune cells that reside in the brain, providing insights into how they contribute to the development and progression of Alzheimer’s disease. Read More
Link between genes, mitochondrial DNA reveals way to tackle cardiovascular disease
The discovery of a link between mitochondria, inflammation, and a pair of genes that help regulate blood cell growth has revealed a potential new target for atherosclerosis therapies. Read More

Adjuvanted liposomal vaccine protects baby mice from RSV, looks promising for human newborns
After a more than 50-year wait, a vaccine to protect infants from respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) -- the leading global cause of death in children under age five -- could finally become a reality. A single dose of an adjuvanted liposomal vaccine formulation has induced protection against RSV infection in baby mice. Read More
Google’s DeepMind, Chan Zuckerberg Biohub hail separate AI-scientific breakthroughs
DeepMind and the European Molecular Biology Laboratory-European Bioinformatics Institute have used artificial intelligence (AI) to predict the 3D structures of nearly all cataloged proteins, while a team of Chan Zuckerberg Biohub scientists has developed a machine-learning method to quantitatively analyze and compare microscopy images of proteins with no prior knowledge.
