Doctors routinely recommend surgery for patients who suffer brain hemorrhages near the brain stem in an area called the cerebellum. However, an international meta-analysis shows that while patients who undergo surgery for intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH)...
Yale researchers have agreed to develop, deploy, and test a new portable MRI scanner, a device its developer hopes will cost a fraction of that of traditional MRIs and make the new imaging technology available in clinics in the U.S. and around the world....
Cancer cells are masters at avoiding detection, but a new system developed by Yale scientists can make them stand out from the crowd and help the immune system spot and eliminate tumors that other forms of immunotherapies might miss, the researchers...
Many neurodevelopmental disorders such as epilepsy, schizophrenia, and autism have been linked to disruption of the key neurotransmitter GABA, but the underlying causes of the disruptions have been difficult to pinpoint. In two new papers published Oct....
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) through the Rare Diseases Clinical Research Consortia (RDCRC) has awarded a research team from Yale University, George Washington University, and Duke University $7.8 million to establish a rare disease network for...
Six Yale faculty members have been elected to the National Academy of Medicine (NAM), the organization announced Oct. 21 at its annual meeting.
The six faculty are among 100 new members elected by the organization to receive the honor, which recognizes...
The lab of Stephen Waxman, Bridget M. Flaherty Professor of Neurology and of neuroscience, has identified the key role of sodium channels arrayed on nerve cells in experience of pain.
In a new paper published in Science Advances, the Yale team led by...
Age-related macular degeneration is one of the leading causes of blindness in the elderly, affecting more than 2 million people in the United States and leading to progressive loss of central vision. Genome wide studies have identified almost three dozen...
Scientists have looked for immune system factors that might help mosquitoes ward off pathogens such as malarial parasites and indirectly protect humans from infection. Yale researchers found one by editing a single gene, which turns out to be crucial for...
