A high-fat, low-carbohydrate diet like the Keto regimen has its fans, but influenza apparently isn’t one of them.
Mice fed a ketogenic diet were better able to combat the flu virus than mice fed food high in carbohydrates, according to a new Yale...
Yale’s Arthur L. Horwich and his colleague and collaborator F. Ulrich Hartl from the Max Planck Institute were among distinguished scientists feted at the Breakthrough Prize gala awards ceremony Nov. 3 at the NASA Ames Research Center in Mountain View,...
Scientists routinely capture images of the brain in action by focusing on single molecules, cells, or circuits. But visualizing how these tiny units interact to create complex behavior has been a daunting task. Now, in a collaborative, multi-lab effort,...
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...
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...
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....
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...
Yale scientists with colleagues at University College London have taken the next step towards unravelling how cells work together during wound closure, a question that could be fundamental to determining optimal healing rates after injury or disease. ...
