• $2 million funding boosts progress of UAB biomedical startup April 21, 2018
  A $2 million investment is the latest step forward for the biomedical startup CNine Biosolutions LLC, which is headed by former University of Alabama at Birmingham postdoctoral fellow Theresa Schein, Ph.D., and retired UAB microbiology professor Scott Barnum, Ph.D. This funding comes from a Denver angel investor group.
• Study examines how higher-order gene combinations help maintain normal cell physiology April 21, 2018
  We inherit many traits from our parents including the color of our eyes and hair. Unfortunately, we also inherit risk factors for certain diseases such as cancer, heart disease, and diabetes. Understanding those genetic connections can help prevention efforts and develop new life-saving treatments to combat these diseases.
• Study debunks ‘myth’ that strenuous exercise dampens immunity April 21, 2018
  New research overturns a myth that has persisted for nearly four decades - that competing in endurance sports, like this weekend's London Marathon, suppresses the body's immune system and makes competitors more susceptible to infections.
• Researchers discover blood biomarkers that may help detect, confirm mild traumatic brain injury April 21, 2018
  Researchers from the University of California, Irvine, Georgetown University and the University of Rochester have found that specific small molecules in blood plasma may be useful in determining whether someone has sustained a mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), commonly known as a concussion.
• CPRIT awards $2 million grant to push forward breast cancer research in West Texas April 21, 2018
  A $2 million grant from the Cancer Prevention and Research Institute of Texas will allow Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center El Paso to create a new lab focusing on breast cancer, pushing forward breast cancer research in West Texas.
• Scientists identify gene responsible for evolution of recombination rates April 21, 2018
  Genetics is a crapshoot. During sexual reproduction, genes from both the mother and the father mix and mingle to produce a genetic combination unique to each offspring. In most cases, the chromosomes line up properly and crossover. In some unlucky cases, however, "selfish DNA" enters the mix, causing abnormal crossovers with deletions or insertions in […]
• Unhealthy diet damages the development of immature fat cells, study shows April 21, 2018
  24 hours. This is all it takes for a so-called precursor fat cell to have its 'epigenetic recipe' on how to correctly develop into a mature fat cell, reprogrammed.
• Researchers find crucial links between dopamine and avoidance behavior April 20, 2018
  Scientists at the University of Maryland School of Medicine have for the first time found direct causal links between the neurotransmitter dopamine and avoidance – behavior related to pain and fear.
• Study findings could open new possibilities for treating cancer with adenovirus April 20, 2018
  Adenovirus is a common virus that causes infectious diseases of the respiratory tract, eyes and gastrointestinal tract in humans and animals. Researchers at Umeå University study molecular mechanisms of infection in order to understand how adenovirus causes disease.
• Normal weight people with fat belly may have more chance of heart problems April 20, 2018
  Belly fat, even in people who are not otherwise overweight, is bad for the heart, according to results from the Mayo Clinic presented today at EuroPrevent 2018, a European Society of Cardiology congress.
