This paper aims to critique the argument constructed by Anna Smajdor and Joona Räsänen that pregnancy is a disease. Their argument that pregnancy fits the features of disease they enumerate stems from ...

Leiden researchers can now visualize the connections between brain cells. Their microscopy technique could significantly advance the human quest to understand brain functions. The study is published ...

Scientists have uncovered a biological “blueprint” that shows how the brain’s smallest building blocks create the large networks that drive thought, emotion, and behavior.

EMBARGOED: A new study to be presented Dec. 6 at the 2025 American Society of Hematology (ASH) meeting reveals that even subtle disruptions in genome architecture can predispose individuals to ...

New approaches hurdle biological barriers to attack recalcitrant targets to tackle difficult-to-treat and recurrent cancers.

Scientists are closing in on a surprising new way to tackle diabetes: hunting down “zombie cells” that clog blood vessels and fat tissue and quietly sabotage metabolism. Instead of only trying to push ...

Leiden researchers can now visualise the connections between brain cells. They do so using a microscopy technique in which ...

There are few forms of the botanical world as readily identifiable as fern leaves. These often large, lacy fronds lend ...

Scientists are edging closer to something that once sounded like science fiction: tools that might refresh aging human eggs ...

Systemic factors, including gut-derived metabolites, immune mediators, and blood‑borne factors, play essential roles in regulating key aspects of neural ...

Five LMU researchers have been awarded Consolidator Grants by the European Research Council. Their projects deal with climate change, strokes, ...
