Newly founded: Buber-Rosenzweig Institute as a prominent research centre on modern Judaism

Eurekalert.org 

(Goethe University Frankfurt) A new research institute will be established at Goethe University: The Buber-Rosenzweig Institute will be dedicated to the study of modern and contemporary Judaism. It brings together numerous and largely third-party funded projects and contributes further to the consolidation of this research area at Goethe University. It all began with an endowed guest professorship for Jewish philosophy of religion dedicated to Martin Buber.

ESC Acute CardioVascular Care 2021: Delivering urgent cardiac care during a pandemic

Eurekalert.org 

(European Society of Cardiology) International experience on treatment of COVID-19 and maintaining emergency cardiac services during the pandemic will be revealed at ESC Acute CardioVascular Care 2021, an online scientific congress of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC). Acute cardiovascular care is the specialty of cardiology dealing with critically ill cardiac patients suffering from urgent and life-threatening conditions including heart attack, cardiac arrest, acute heart failure, cardiogenic shock and others.

Cancer cell therapy pioneer Carl June, MD, named 2021 Dan David Prize Laureate

Eurekalert.org 

(University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine) International cancer cell therapy pioneer Carl June, MD, the Richard W. Vague Professor in Immunotherapy in the department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine in the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania and director of the Center for Cellular Immunotherapies at Penn's Abramson Cancer Center, has been named a 2021 Dan David Prize Laureate.

Leopoldina advocates free access to gene databases for researchers

Eurekalert.org 

(Leopoldina) In the course of implementing the Nagoya Protocol, there is currently a discussion about equitable international sharing of economic benefits arising from Digital Sequence Information (DSI) use. Access restrictions or payment of fees are being discussed. In its ad hoc statement published today, the German National Academy of Sciences Leopoldina points out that restrictions would have a seriously detrimental effect on research as well as biodiversity conservation.

CÚRAM to present research agenda for medical devices in the EU

Eurekalert.org 

(National University of Ireland Galway) CÚRAM SFI Research Centre for Medical Devices based at National University of Ireland Galway, will present a webinar and series of panel discussions with EU policy makers and Medtech industry leaders in the European Union. The event takes place on Tuesday, 16 February.

Quantum leaps in understanding how living corals survive

Eurekalert.org 

(Carl R. Woese Institute for Genomic Biology, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign) A new imaging technique has been developed to improve our ability to visualize and track the symbiotic interactions between coral and algae in response to globally warming sea surface temperatures and deepening seawaters.



Water is a probable vector for mammalian virus transmission

Eurekalert.org 

Water is a necessity for all life but its availability can be limited. In geographical areas experiencing dry seasons, animals congregate near the few freshwater sources, often reaching large densities. These sites may be key locations for pathogen transmissions, if viruses remain stable and infectious in water. A team of researchers led by Leibniz-IZW now confirmed this in a study, published in "Science of the Total Environment".

Method for temporal monitoring of microplastic sedimentation

Eurekalert.org 

Researchers in Finland have tested the sediment trap method to analyse the annual accumulation rates of microplastics in a body of water, and possible seasonal variation therein. The most important advantage of the method is that it can be used to determine the time it takes from microplastics to enter and accumulate in bodies of water.

New discovery may enable accurate prediction of cancer spread before cancer develops

Eurekalert.org 

Researchers from Erler Group at the Biotech Research & Innovation Centre (BRIC) in Copenhagen have discovered that the rigidity of a thin membrane structure encompassing cells and lining all vessels regulates how easily cancer cells can breach tissues to spread through the body, and is thus a key determinant of cancer patient survival. The results are published in Nature Materials today.

New microscopy analysis allows discovery of central adhesion complex

Eurekalert.org 

Researchers at University of Münster and the Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry have developed a method for determining the arrangement and density of individual proteins in cells. In this way, they were able to prove the existence of an adhesion complex consisting of three proteins.

The water surface is a fantastic place for chemical reactions

Eurekalert.org 

Using an advanced technique, scientists from the RIKEN Cluster for Pioneering Research have demonstrated that a chemical reaction powered by light takes place ten thousand times faster at the air-water interface--what we usually call the water surface--than in the bulk of the water, even when the light has equivalent energy. This finding could help our understanding of the many important chemical and biological processes that take place at the water surface.

People with and without AD have a different threshold for elective revascularisation

Eurekalert.org 

The risk of both mortality and rehospitalisation after an elective revascularisation procedure for coronary artery disease is similar for people with and without Alzheimer's disease (AD), but people with AD had worse outcomes after an emergency procedure, according to a new study from the University of Eastern Finland.

Challenge to anorexia nervosa treatment guidelines

Eurekalert.org 

New analysis published in The Lancet Psychiatry has shown a lack of strong evidence to support current guidance on psychological therapies for treating anorexia nervosa over expert treatment as usual. The findings highlight a need for further research and support a call for individual trial data to be made available so the benefits of treatments in specific patient populations can be better understood.

Dual character of excitons in the ultrafast regime: atomic-like or solid-like?

Eurekalert.org 

Researchers at Politecnico di Milano in collaboration with the Institute of Photonics and Nanotechnologies IFN-CNR and a theory group from the Tsukuba University (Japan) and the Max Plank Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of matter (Hamburg, Germany), have discovered that an exciton can simultaneously adopt two radically different characters when it isstimulated by light.

Researchers discover promising biomarkers to diagnose mild traumatic brain injury

Eurekalert.org 

Certain plasma microRNAs could serve as diagnostic biomarkers in mild traumatic brain injury, a new study from the University of Eastern Finland shows. The biomarkers were discovered in an animal model and they were successfully used also to diagnose mild traumatic brain injury in a subgroup of patients.

Graphene "nano-origami" creates tiniest microchips yet

Eurekalert.org 

A team of experimental physicists at the University of Sussex have developed the smallest microchips ever - 100 times smaller than conventional microchips.They believe that this next generation of microchips could lead to computers and phones running thousands of times faster.

Researchers develop algorithm to find possible misdiagnosis

Eurekalert.org 

Researchers from the University of Copenhagen have developed an algorithm that can identify patients who may have been wrongly diagnosed. With the help of digital disease history, the algorithm is able to register disease trajectories that differ so much from normal trajectories that there may be a misdiagnosis. The algorithm has been developed on the basis of data from several hundreds of thousands of COPD patients.

Almost half of virus sufferers report depression
