Kessler and BrainQ partner on a national trial of breakthrough device to improve recovery after stroke

Researchers from Kessler Foundation and Kessler Institute for Rehabilitation (collectively "Kessler") are enrolling participants in a national trial of a breakthrough device for improving recovery after stroke. Kessler locations in West Orange and Saddle Brook, NJ, are among the 20 sites across the U.S. participating in the EMAGINE Stroke Recovery Trial, which pairs therapeutic exercise with stimulation of the brain through an investigational wearable device.

COVID-19 mRNA boosters induce robust but non-durable immune response in the elderly

A study published in the journal Frontiers in Immunology describes that the third booster dose of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) effectively induces an immune response against immunologically more fit variants of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). However, the immunity induced by the booster vaccination is transient and gradually declines over time.

SARS-CoV-2 spike subunit conformation determines plasma-neutralizing activity triggered by COVID-19 vaccines and natural infection

In a new study, researchers evaluated the effect of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spike (S) glycoprotein conformation on S-directed neutralizing antibodies (nAbs).

Nurses exposed to high levels of noise more likely to report health problems

Health care isn’t traditionally considered a “loud” occupation, so while many studies have examined the poor outcomes associated with hospitalized patients’ noise exposure, few look at health care workers’ noise exposure.

Treatment using CRISPR genome editing alleviates swelling attacks in hereditary angioedema patients

Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is a rare, genetic disorder characterized by severe, recurring, and unpredictable swelling attacks in various organs and tissues of the body, which can be painful, debilitating, and life-threatening.
