For years, scientists have searched for a way to slow or even reverse one of the body’s most important aging processes: the decline of stem cells. Now, researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai say they may have found a powerful new approach. In research published in Cell Stem Cell and highlighted this month by Science Daily, scientists successfully restored old blood stem cells in mice to a youthful state by repairing...
Americans are surrounded by stories of gun violence. Every day there are headlines about school shootings, mass killings, neighborhood shootings, domestic violence, and suicides involving firearms. Television coverage loops dramatic footage. Social media feeds replay the same stories endlessly. Smartphones make it nearly impossible to escape. Researchers are increasingly warning...

Americans are surrounded by stories of gun violence. Every day there are headlines about school shootings, mass killings, neighborhood shootings, domestic violence, and suicides involving firearms. Television coverage loops dramatic footage. Social media feeds replay the same stories endlessly. Smartphones make it nearly impossible to escape. Researchers are increasingly warning that this constant exposure is taking a serious toll on the nation’s mental health. A growing body of research now suggests that repeatedly consuming news...
A new form of brain stimulation that requires no surgery is offering fresh hope to people living with Parkinson’s disease. Researchers say the technique, called transcranial temporal interference stimulation, or TIs, may be able to improve movement problems by stimulating deep regions of the brain from outside the skull. Early...
