A new study from University of Warwick has revealed mixed experiences for expectant mothers undergoing prenatal screening for Down syndrome, with many reporting a lack of sufficient information and impartiality.

Scientists discovered that three TCF7-expressing tumor-reactive T cell subpopulations exhibit selective expansion during ovarian tumor-infiltrating T cell production ex vivo. CD8⁺ TCF7⁺ Tpex cells demonstrate self-renewal capacity and generate stem-like progenies. CD8⁺ TCF7⁺ Tpex and CD4⁺ TCF7⁺ Tfh cells are both marked by the co-expression of CCR7 and CD200. Selectively expanding CCR7⁺CD200⁺ T cells enriches stem-like, tumor-reactive T cells, enabling precise ex vivo expansion of therapeutic T cell subpopulations for adoptive cell therapy.

A new LongITools study, published in Environmental Research, has linked noise levels to depression and anxiety diagnoses. It is the first study of its kind to investigate long-term exposure to traffic noise and mental health in children, adolescents, and young adults.

A research team has developed a cost-effective method to measure wheat plant height in unprecedented detail using drone-based cross-circling oblique (CCO) imaging and 3D canopy modeling.

CLEVELAND, Ohio (August 13, 2025)—Adults aged 65 years and older are becoming the fastest-growing demographic, yet, the sexual health of older women is often understudied and untreated. A new study demonstrates their rate of sexual problems is similar to that of midlife women, although they are less likely to report distress related to their sexual problems. Results of the study are published online today in Menopause, the journal of The Menopause Society.
