A new study conducted at the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) Wisley's Wellbeing Garden has found that simply prompting people to actively notice natural features, such as birdsong, plant textures, and scents, can significantly improve their well-being.
A new study by the University of Eastern Finland explored who are most likely to adopt and actively use digital apps designed to promote well-being in North Savo, in the Eastern part of Finland. The study found that individuals with lower life satisfaction and those experiencing more challenges in their daily life were more likely to initiate app use. However, app engagement was, ultimately, most active among those with highest life satisfaction.
Early and accurate diagnosis of dementia remains a major challenge. Standard approaches such as MRI and PET scans can provide valuable information about brain structure and function, but they are expensive, not always accessible, and often too expensive for repeated use.
Understanding the strategies and unmet needs of caregivers managing medications for people with Alzheimer's disease or related dementias may improve the lives of both caregivers and patients. A recent study, whose authors include Regenstrief Institute Research Scientists Noll Campbell, PharmD, M.S., and Malaz Boustani, M.D., MPH, describes the strategies and unmet needs of caregivers managing medications for people with Alzheimer's disease or related dementias.
Higher activity of PGC-1α enables brown fat cells in females to achieve thermogenic activity and energy expenditure compared to males, reveals a study conducted in Japan. This research demonstrates that PGC-1α protein promotes phospholipid synthesis, which strengthens mitochondria of brown fat cells and enhances their heat-generating capacity in female mice. The findings reveal a female-specific mechanism of energy metabolism, boosted by PGC-1α and estrogen, which could inspire new therapies for the prevention of obesity and diabetes.
On Sept. 10, 2025, a federal judge blocked the Department of Justice's attempt to subpoena medical records and other private health information on minors receiving hormone therapy and other gender affirming care at Boston Children's Hospital.
People are exposed to millions of fungal spores every day, even potentially harmful ones like those from Aspergillus fumigatus. For most individuals, this constant exposure is harmless, as the immune system efficiently clears the spores without causing illness.
Recent research, published in Biological Psychiatry, provides the first proof that evidence-based parenting programs are accompanied by specific changes in children's brain activity and decision‑making processes, and underscores the value of offering such programs early in life.
Researchers from King's have identified a new way to treat certain blood cancers using existing drugs, by turning a once-dismissed part of our DNA into a therapeutic target.
In October 2023, an unthinkable tragedy unfolded in Coleman, Wisconsin: An 8‑month‑old girl lost her life when a driver, impaired by cannabis, ran a stop sign and crashed into another vehicle.

They're tiny particles—with potentially huge human consequences. Researchers from Aarhus University have identified a defect in the production of so-called exosomes in cells, associated with a mutation seen in dementia patients. This could lead to a better understanding of the development—and perhaps even a treatment—of Alzheimer's.
