In the battle against obesity, Yale University researchers may have discovered a new weapon — a naturally occurring molecule secreted by the gut that makes rats and mice less hungry after fatty meals. The findings are published in the Nov. 26 issue of the...
With HHMI funding, these Yale scientists are working to solve some of the most challenging biomedical mysteries.When the Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) has gone looking for biomedical researchers of “intellectual daring” in recent years, one place...
Yale University is one of five recipients of a $10 million grant from the National Institutes of Health to enhance informatics research tools for neuroscientists around the world. The five-year grant administered by the University of California-San Diego...
In what is believed to be the first study of its kind, researchers at Yale have found that victims of political violence were much more likely to report abusing their female partners after immigrating to the United States For many U.S. immigrants,...
Yale researchers have described how dueling brain systems may explain why you forget to drop off the dry cleaning and may point to ways that substance abusers and people with obsessive compulsive disorder can overcome bad habits. In Proceedings of the...
Yale scientists have created nanowire sensors coupled with simple microprocessor electronics that are both sensitive and specific enough to be used for point-of-care (POC) disease detection, according to a report in Nano Letters. The sensors use...

Yale researchers have shown that the origin and evolution of the placenta and uterus in mammals is associated with evolutionary changes in a single regulatory protein, according to a report in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. “Many past...
Yale researchers have identified an unusual molecular process in normal tissues that causes RNA molecules produced from separate genes to be clipped and stitched together. The discovery that these rearranged products exist in normal as well as cancerous...
Yale molecular and evolutionary biologists in collaboration with Department of Energy scientists produced the full genome sequence of Trichoplax, one of nature’s most primitive multicellular organisms, providing a new insight into the evolution of all...
