Study provides new insight into the cellular and molecular biology of human heart failure

Studying heart samples from patients with cardiomyopathies, as well as from controls without heart disease, researchers have provided new insights into the cellular and molecular biology of human heart failure – a highly fatal condition that affects 23 million people worldwide.

Discovery could prevent insulin resistance and have significant benefits for people with type 2 diabetes

In a potential game changer for patients with type 2 diabetes, a team of researchers at the Diabetes, Obesity, and Metabolism Institute (DOMI) at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai has identified a therapeutic target for the preservation and regeneration of beta cells (β cells) - cells in the pancreas that produce and distribute insulin.

Novel age predictor helps investigate heterogeneity in brain aging

A new research paper was published in Aging (abbreviated as "Aging (Albany NY)" by Medline/PubMed and as "Aging-US" by Web of Science) on the cover of Volume 14, Issue 14, entitled, "Aging the brain: multi-region methylation principal component based clock in the context of Alzheimer's disease."

Novel algorithm provides rich, detailed information on protein location and function within a cell

Humans are good at looking at images and finding patterns or making comparisons. Look at a collection of dog photos, for example, and you can sort them by color, by ear size, by face shape, and so on. But could you compare them quantitatively? And perhaps more intriguingly, could a machine extract meaningful information from images that humans can't?
