In pursuit of a treatment for alopecia areata, an autoimmune disorder that causes hair loss, scientists have found new success by repurposing a common arthritis drug. An impressive portion of trial participants were able to regrow their hair following … Continue reading Trial shows arthritis drug restores hair in a third of alopecia patients

Animal studies have consistently demonstrated calorie-controlled diets lead to better health and longer lifespans. Human trials testing different dietary regimes have established calorie restriction as an effective way to lose weight, but it hasn’t bee… Continue reading Anti-aging mechanism of calorie restriction identified in Yale study
Engineers from Yale University have developed a wearable device that can help individuals assess whether they have been exposed to SARS-CoV-2, the coronavirus that causes COVID-19. The cheap device can clip onto a person’s clothes and capture aerosoliz… Continue reading Yale team develops clip-on monitor to detect coronavirus exposure
A new model by a team of scientists led by Yale University suggests that the ever elusive dark matter that has so far escaped the detection of scientists may be trapped inside primordial black holes left over after the Big Bang.Continue ReadingCategory… Continue reading Is the universe’s dark matter hiding in primordial black holes?
Compelling new preclinical research led by scientists from Yale University has found intranasal vaccination may be much more effective at generating immunity against a number of respiratory viruses compared to more conventional injection-delivered vacc… Continue reading Nasal vaccines may induce broader viral protection than injections
Researchers at Yale have developed a new oral medication for type 1 diabetes. In tests in mice, not only did the drug quickly adjust insulin levels, it also restored metabolic functions and reversed inflammation, opening up a potential way to prevent t… Continue reading Oral insulin pill treats, and even prevents, type 1 diabetes in mice
A new study published in the journal Science Translational Medicine is reporting the development of a novel mRNA-based vaccine designed to help resist tick bites. Preclinical tests in guinea pigs indicate the vaccine aids the immune system in recognizi… Continue reading New mRNA anti-tick vaccine may protect from more than just Lyme disease
Researchers at the Yale School of Medicine have developed a new kind of COVID-19 treatment designed to stimulate the body’s immune defenses and fight off a coronavirus infection at its earliest stages. In preclinical animal tests an experimental RNA mo… Continue reading Experimental RNA therapy harnesses immune system to fight COVID-19
A small but robust study from Yale University researchers is offering insights into the characteristics of severe COVID-19 infections in fully vaccinated individuals. Although these kinds of breakthrough infections are very rare, the research helps doc… Continue reading Yale study identifies those at risk of breakthrough COVID-19 infections
