The question is no longer whether young people are using AI for mental health care, but the soundness of the advice they receive, health officials say.

Mayo Clinic researchers have developed an experimental drug with the help of artificial intelligence (AI) to target the "undruggable" PDZ domain of the GIPC1 protein, which helps different types of cancer, including pancreatic cancer, grow and resist treatment. In laboratory stud

Each morning during rounds as a resident at University of Rochester Medicine, Marika Toscano noticed the same troubling pattern.

Government plans network of nearly 200 specialist services to help those facing mental health crises. O recorte ajuda a contextualizar a pauta dentro de Saúde Mental.

A protein that can dial down oxidative stress in cells helps some cancers resist treatment with a widely used class of drugs called BTK inhibitors, according to a study led by investigators at Weill Cornell Medicine. The discovery points to a possible solution to the problem of B

Every time a virus invades a person, it collides with thousands of years of human history. A study led by researchers at the USC Dornsife College of Letters, Arts and Sciences and Howard University suggests that some of the genes involved in the body's immune response today bear

Researchers have developed an implant that could deliver next-generation therapies for ovarian cancer precisely where they are needed while simultaneously monitoring how the disease responds.
