A team led by scientists at Weill Cornell Medicine has made a map identifying all the different RNA molecules that are derived from each gene in the brains of mice.
In an expansion of its top-ranked biomedical education curricula, Weill Cornell Medicine is launching an additional site for graduate programs at Houston Methodist for the 2021-22 academic year.
The first and largest genetic association study in the Middle East revealed genetic variations that are specific to the Qatari population, a group of researchers at Qatar Foundation reported Feb. 23 in Nature Communications.
Antibodies that guard against COVID-19 can transfer from mothers to babies while in the womb, according to a new study from Weill Cornell Medicine and NewYork-Presbyterian researcher.
A gene linked to unusually long lifespans in humans protects brain stem cells from the harmful effects of stress, according to a new study by Weill Cornell Medicine investigators.
Health Matters spoke with Dr. Simon, an assistant professor of medicine in the Division of Infectious Diseases at Weill Cornell Medicine, to understand the different kinds of masks and why it might make sense to start double masking.
Cancer biologists at Weill Cornell Medicine have been awarded a 2021 Top 10 Clinical Research Achievement Award from the Clinical Research Forum for their study last year describing a highly sensitive blood test for monitoring cancer progression and relapse.
The rationale for including pregnant and lactating women in early CDC-guided COVID-19 vaccination efforts in the United States was outlined in an opinion editorial.
Severe COVID-19 involves a distinctive reprogramming of gene activity in infected patients‘ immune cells, according to a study led by researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine.
With the COVID-19 vaccines rolling out across the country and more people getting vaccinated, many are wondering how long it takes for the vaccines to provide protection.
The discovery of an “Achilles heel” in a type of gut bacteria that causes intestinal inflammation in patients with Crohn’s disease may lead to more targeted therapies for the difficult to treat disease.
Common fungi, often present in the gut, teach the immune system how to respond to their more dangerous relatives, according to new research from scientists at Weill Cornell Medicine.
A type of cell derived from human stem cells that has been widely used for brain research and drug development may have been leading researchers astray for years, according to a study from scientists at Weill Cornell Medicine and Columbia University Irving Medical Center.
The environment surrounding the cancerous cells of a lymphoma tumor has a strong influence on the progression of these blood-cell cancers and their responses to therapies.
Cases of symptomatic COVID-19 were extremely low among children and staff at a network of YMCA day camps in North Carolina that took precautions like masking and physical distancing, with close to zero transmissions occurring at the camps.
Much of the three-dimensional architecture of the genome in antibody-producing immune cells is dependent on a gene called SMC3. When this gene is not working properly it can lead to improper immune cell development and to cancer, by disrupting how DNA is structured inside the cell nucleus, according to a team of researchers from Weill Cornell Medicine.
For Dr. Mario Gaudino, being an excellent cardiothoracic surgeon and conducting clinical research to find new ways to improve patients’ outcomes have been two sides of the same coin since he was a medical student in Rome.
