Genomic Technology Detects Fetal Problems Two new studies show the potential of a genomic technique to help spot abnormalities in fetuses that conventional methods can’t. One research team used the technology in prenatal testing. Another showed that it could help detect the reasons for stillbirths. The approach might allow better planning for early interventions. Some [...]
Brain Changes as Trust Rises With Age Older adults are more likely than younger ones to perceive dishonest faces as trustworthy, according to a new study of social judgments and brain activity. The findings may help explain why older people are more likely to fall victim to fraud. Up to 80% of scam victims are [...]
Source of New Heart Cell Growth Discovered A study in mice suggests that new heart cells arise from pre-existing heart cells and that the renewal process slows with age. The findings may lead to improved regenerative therapy for people with heart damage. Dividing heart cells in newborn mice incorporate a tracer that can be seen [...]
Forecasting Flu Outbreaks Scientists were able to forecast seasonal flu outbreaks using an approach common to weather prediction. The accomplishment lays the groundwork for systems to help public officials better predict and prepare for outbreaks. In temperate regions, people become sick from influenza infections most often during winter. Dry air appears to be a factor. [...]
