#Congratulations to Gary Brudvig, PhD, of Yale MB&B and Valentina Greco, PhD, of Yale Department of Genetics, who are among eight Yale University #faculty newly #elected to the American Academy of Arts & Sciences. valentina greco
In new research published in Nature Methods, a @yalegenetics team identified 21 new genes involved in regulating #DNA folding. 19 of those #genes have known connection to disease, representing possible therapeutic targets for #cancer and other diseases. brnw.ch/21wSjZg
Researchers in the Yale Department of Psychiatry are working with a UC San Francisco team to expand a new clinical trial investigating #psilocybin as a potential treatment for #depression in people with #Parkinson's disease: brnw.ch/21wSloL
In a new JAMA Network Open study, a YSM team led by Carlos R. Oliveira, MD, PhD finds #nirsevimab is effective at preventing severe #RSV disease in infants – but timing matters, since the drug's effectiveness declines over the three months after injection. medicine.yale.edu/news-article/t…
In a recent study published in Nature Cell Biology, a Yale Neuroscience team says mutations in #genes responsible for regulating the lysosome – the "trash can" of the #cell – may result in the leakage of toxic substances in brain cells, leading to #Parkinson's disease onset.
#Congratulations to YSM's Gary Brudvig, PhD, Jonathan Ellman, PhD, and Mark Hochstrasser, PhD, who are among five Yale University professors newly #elected to National Academy of Sciences: brnw.ch/21wSq7O Jonathan Ellman Yale MB&B Yale Pharmacology
A YSM and Penn State study linking #environmental factors like #rainfall to growth outcomes in #infants in Uganda has global implications for young families dealing with climate-related food insecurity. Learn more here: brnw.ch/21wSrGp
In a new study, researchers at YSM and NYU Grossman School of Medicine say mutations in the #gene BRCA2 can help explain why a class of #cancer #drugs called PARP inhibitors work – and suggest how they might be improved. brnw.ch/21wSvcx
With rates of #alcohol-related deaths on the rise among #women, Yale Psychiatry researchers are investigating sex-specific differences in why we #drink and how alcohol effects our bodies: brnw.ch/21wSxah
A YSM-led study published in Cell Stem Cell unveils how molecular "traffic cops" called morphogens help to guide #stemcells' differentiation into more specialized #brain cells in the earliest stages of #development: brnw.ch/21wSAAj
YSM researchers at Yale Cancer Center are finding ways to identify the side effects of #immunotherapy earlier, so symptoms can be managed without interrupting lifesaving #cancer #treatment: brnw.ch/21wSCnH
In a study published in Nature Medicine, YSM researchers pioneer a new approach using bacteria-killing #viruses to dodge #antibiotic resistance in patients with cystic #fibrosis. Learn more: brnw.ch/21wSEfH
YSM's #Student #Research Day celebrated med students' most impactful research with posters and presentations. #Congratulations to Yale Dermatology's Jeffrey Cohen, MD, who was presented with the John N. Forrest, Jr, MD Prize for Mentorship in Student Research: brnw.ch/21wSEH5
In new research published in Cancer Research, YSM researchers at Yale Cancer Center find physical pressure – like what cells experience inside solid #liver #tumors – escalates #cancer cell aggression. medicine.yale.edu/news-article/n…
