Matthew Taylor likened his recently published work alongside doctoral student Gary Dunn to kicking over a rock. Once the discovery was made, it was time to see what lay beneath.

A new study from researchers at Intermountain Health in Salt Lake City finds that a comprehensive program with a strong focus on education in the health system's urgent care clinics and emergency departments significantly increased HIV testing for patients being evaluated for other sexually transmitted diseases, helping to increase the number of previously undiagnosed patients who learned they were living with HIV and promptly connected to care.

Numbers are all around us. In the morning, we wake up to an alarm that tells us it's time to get out of bed. When deciding what to wear, we often check the temperature outside.

A study led by UCLA Health Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center investigators found that stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT), a form of high-dose radiation delivered in just five sessions, after prostate surgery is safe and as effective as traditional, longer courses of radiation in preventing prostate cancer from returning.

Nearly half of adolescents and young adults with lingering symptoms of concussion suffer from eye coordination disorders that cause double and blurred vision, headaches and difficulties concentrating.

A new study by the University of California, Davis, shows how cells work together to avoid a sudden drop in blood sugar. Understanding these feedback loops could improve the lives of people with diabetes and help them avoid dangerous hypoglycemia.

Spinal muscular atrophy affects all the body's muscles. For a long time, it was considered a disease caused solely by the loss of nerve cells in the spinal cord. Now, a research team at Leipzig University's Carl Ludwig Institute of Physiology has been able to show that the cerebellum—which is important for motor coordination but also influences social and cognitive processes—also plays a role in the development of spinal muscular atrophy. The study has been published in the journal Brain.
