Mechanisms that govern HIV transcription and latency differ in the gut and blood, according to a new study. The findings could inform new therapies aimed at curing HIV.

Scientists are sharing a trove of data that will be critical for deciphering how a natural genetic variation shapes the immune system's ability to protect our health.

New research has identified rogue cells — namely brain and muscle cells — lurking within kidney organoids. Such cells make up only 10 to 20 percent of an organoid's cells, but their presence in..

Researchers have mapped the regions of the brain in mormyrid fish in extremely high detail. The new measurements can help illuminate longstanding questions in neuroanatomy. As brains get bigger, do al..

Which is better, a low-fat/high-carbohydrate diet or a high-fat/low-carbohydrate diet — or is it the type of fat that matters? In a new paper, researchers with diverse expertise and perspectives on t..

A new study sheds light on how toothed whales adapted their sonar abilities to occupy different environments. The study shows that as animals grew bigger, they were able to put more energy into their ..

A multidisciplinary team of researchers have developed an anti-inflammatory drug molecule with a new mechanism of action. By inhibiting a certain protein, the researchers were able to reduce the signa..

Researchers report the first direct evidence that the cerebellum does more than just control muscle activity. It also plays a role in cognitive functions.

A new study shows how bubbles contaminated with bacteria can act as tiny microbial grenades, bursting and launching microorganisms, including potential pathogens, out of the water and into the air.

Astronomers may have finally uncovered the long-sought progenitor to a specific type of exploding star by sifting through NASA Hubble Space Telescope archival data. The supernova, called a Type Ic, is..
