15-Jun-2026 An out-of-this-world design hits the high notes University of Rochester A team of otolaryngologists, biomedical engineers, and audio engineers helped a PhD student design and test an assistive brace that has him playing the French horn stronger, at higher ranges, and more confidently than ever before.
15-Jun-2026 Canada’s largest cloud for academic research gets an update University of Victoria Arbutus Cloud, Canada’s largest cloud computing site for academic research that is housed at the University of Victoria, is now faster while improving sovereign artificial intelligence (AI) and data processing capabilities.
12-Jun-2026 Unique chromium beam experiment unlocks cosmic ray origins and galactic chemistry University of Maryland Baltimore County UMBC nuclear physicist Priyarshini Ghosh and collaborators have completed the first experiment at Michigan State University’s Facility for Rare Isotope Beams to generate and fragment chromium-52 nuclei, precisely measuring the outcomes of their interactions with hydrogen. The experiment mimicked what happens as the nuclei travel across the galaxy after being forged in a supernova. The results will help scientists decode the true chemical history and composition of our galaxy.
12-Jun-2026 Lab-grown canine muscle cells offer solution for early therapeutic testing Texas A&M University Before testing new therapies in animals, researchers now have a more efficient starting point — lab-grown canine muscle cells that can help identify what works and what doesn’t. Developed at the Texas A&M College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences (VMBS), the Myok9 cell line is a lab-grown canine muscle cell model that allows scientists to evaluate treatments in a controlled laboratory setting before moving into further studies. The approach supports a growing national effort to reduce animal use in research while maintaining scientific progress, particularly in fields focused on developing new therapies. The Myok9 cell line is now commercially available through multiple vendors, including one of the world’s largest cell line distributors.
12-Jun-2026 Going swimming? Here’s how to keep your eyes safe University of Colorado School of Medicine CU Anschutz pediatric optometrist Emma Stahr, OD, explains the potential risks that can come from water activities and ways to prevent issues.
12-Jun-2026 Unique online CU Anschutz Fellowship expands palliative care workforce University of Colorado School of Medicine CU Anschutz offers a part-time, online fellowship that addresses a national workforce shortage by helping mid-career physicians get board certified in hospice and palliative medicine.
12-Jun-2026 University of Tennessee group develops novel forecasting model to predict river temperature University of Tennessee at Knoxville Researchers at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville developed a novel deep learning model to forecast river temperatures using limited data. Their approach improves accuracy over traditional methods, aiding ecosystem protection, hydropower planning, and climate change adaptation. The model’s flexibility supports diverse rivers and can inform management decisions under future environmental conditions. Journal Journal of Hydrology
12-Jun-2026 Joint service program delivers genetic intelligence for the modern battlefield Naval Research Laboratory WASHINGTON, D.C. – The U.S. Naval Research Laboratory (NRL), in partnership with the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) and multiple Army and Navy research commands, has advanced a new generation of DNA and RNA sequencing technology designed to quickly identify biological threats in the field.
12-Jun-2026 Teaching the immune system to fight aging Howard Hughes Medical Institute Freeman Hrabowski Scholar Corina Amor Vegas adapted CAR-T cells, a cancer immunotherapy approach, to help aging immune systems relearn how to clear damaging senescent cells.
11-Jun-2026 Critically endangered shorebirds rescued at University of Oulu – Hatchlings to be released into the wild University of Oulu, Finland Researchers at the University of Oulu, Finland, have rescued eggs of the critically endangered southern dunlin through laboratory incubation, with 15 chicks now hatched and due to be released along the Bothnian Bay coast. The exceptional conservation effort responds to increasing nest losses caused by climate-driven storm surges.
