Researchers are combining genetic studies of Utah families with AI-based molecular biology tools to find new medications that may ultimately help treat OA at its source.
Researchers have made the first single cell map of the gene regulatory networks that drive heart failure, revealing crucial information to help develop better heart failure treatments.
Repeated exposure to combinations of common air pollutants in early pregnancy is associated with nearly three times greater odds of early preterm birth.
In mice, a brain protein called Arc helps spread toxic molecules from sick brain cells to healthy ones. If therapies could be designed to target the spread, they could be...
Electrical engineers, blood pressure researchers, and mathematicians teamed up to develop and test a smartwatch that tracks electrical properties of pulsating blood.
A new study finds that many older adults start cannabis seeking more effective or non-pharmaceutical options to manage sleep, pain, or mental health, basing their decisions on word of mouth...
New research in the Wasatch Front found that when air pollution was higher than the EPA daily limit in the week before surgery, the risk of post-surgical complications increased from...
When activated by its target, the newly characterized molecule rips the genome apart, a lethal move that researchers can program to destroy harmful cells while leaving healthy ones untouched.
When Bill the ten-foot-long Siamese crocodile started showing changes to his health, University of Utah Health radiologists and Hogle Zoo veterinary experts joined forces in the unique diagnostic endeavor.
By examining genetic clues that linger in adult cells, scientists have now gained surprising insights into the developmental origins of the nerves outside the brain and spine.
A combination of hot temperature and high air pollution is associated with increased risk of suicide in the following days, although it's unknown whether environmental changes directly cause increased risk.
A new study of Medicare patients across the country has found that nearly half of telehealth visits are for non-mental health conditions, often chronic conditions like diabetes or high blood...
