Two Michigan researchers make major inroads into the biology of brown fat and its implications for weight loss and obesity-related diseases

By focusing on the biology of healthy nerve cells, new research finds repeats in a gene, which causes Fragile X Syndrome, regulates how and when proteins are made in neurons.

Modeling emerging diseases like COVID-19 can be difficult and potentially inaccurate with traditional reporting methods alone. One U-M researcher has been using her expertise in forecasting epidemiological trends to collaborate with researchers in China t

To study consciousness, Michigan Medicine researchers use anesthesia in an attempt to gain a better understanding of moment-to-moment changes in the brain.

COVID-19 can clinically manifest similarly to other respiratory illnesses and can also appear similar on imaging scans. Two radiologists have teamed up and found imaging anomalies that can serve as an alert to radiologists that COVID-19 may be present in

Researchers have made a genetic breakthrough in mice that could lead to new, revolutionary treatment options for SCN8A-related encephalopathy seizure disorder in babies.

Animal-based neuroscience research on the parts of the brain involved in responding to food cues may inform understanding of human overeating and addiction

Study suggests those with mild cognitive impairment don’t always receive the same medical treatment that patients with normal cognitive functioning get when they have a heart attack.

Research behind a drug compound that causes complete remission of a leukemia subtype in mouse models has recently spurred a human clinical trial.

Heterotopic ossification (HO) is a form of abnormal healing typified by bone forming within muscle or soft tissue as the body heals from injury or surgery. Historically, there has been no treatment for HO, but new research suggests that could change.

Glioblastoma is a deadly brain cancer with little treatment options available, but Michigan Medicine researchers are working in the lab to change that.

Researchers at Michigan Medicine find that the per patient risk of using group II GBCA in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) appears to be less than 1%, though larger studies are still needed.

A CALCR cell found in mice may stop feeding without subsequential nauseating effects as well as influence the long term intake of food.

The director of U-M’s Center for Aging Research discusses their latest findings and research behind longevity.

A new study in mice finds an antiviral compound modeled after a banana protein is effective against several deadly viruses, including flu and coronaviruses.
