A groundbreaking breast cancer therapy just became the first FDA-approved drug of its kind, born from Yale research that began over two decades ago. The new treatment offers hope to thousands of women with an aggressive form of breast cancer.
A Yale team has identified exactly when and how healthcare can intervene to save lives after opioid overdoses. Their findings reveal a critical 90-day window where the right support could change everything.
A Yale scientist is discovering why some patients with myasthenia gravis don't improve with standard treatments, opening doors to personalized therapies. Her groundbreaking work could help doctors match the right medicine to each patient's unique disease pattern.
New research reveals lifesaving addiction treatment is five times harder to reach by public transit, but the findings point to clear solutions. Yale researchers mapped exactly where help is needed most, giving policymakers a roadmap to save lives.
A new Yale analysis found that universal healthcare could save the U.S. over $1 trillion and prevent more than 114,000 deaths every year. The research shows America already spends enough on healthcare to cover everyone at a lower total cost.
Scientists at Yale's Center for Emotional Intelligence have found that breaking the habit of rumination can improve both mental and physical health. Their research shows simple techniques can stop thought spirals and reduce inflammation linked to aging.
Yale researchers created a groundbreaking database of 520 FDA-approved drugs by studying tiny zebrafish, revealing potential personalized treatments for people with specific autism-related genetic mutations. One drug candidate successfully reversed disrupted behaviors in both fish and human brain cells.
Two determined moms and Yale researchers solved a medical mystery that was crippling children across Connecticut. Their discovery led to treatments that now help nearly half a million Americans recover each year.
Yale researchers grew miniature noses in a lab and discovered why the same cold virus leaves some people sniffling while others end up bedridden. The secret lies not in the virus itself, but in how quickly your body produces a powerful protein called interferon.
Yale researchers discovered that racial disparities in cardiac arrest survival aren't explained by differences in do-not-resuscitate orders, pointing medicine toward finding real solutions. The findings rule out one suspected cause and refocus efforts on uncovering what actually drives survival gaps.
Yale researchers discovered that helping parents manage stress protects young children from obesity better than diet and exercise advice alone. The study found stressed parents improved their parenting and their kids stopped gaining excess weight after learning mindfulness techniques.
Researchers at Yale discovered how to boost production of a crucial protein that could prevent kidney cysts from forming in patients with the most common inherited kidney disease. The breakthrough opens the door to treatments that increase protein levels instead of shutting genes down.
Hannah Cole was diagnosed with leukemia on her 10th birthday, but a clinical trial at Yale's Smilow Cancer Hospital is giving her family real hope. Her story shows how research funding directly saves young lives.
Leading autism researchers and advocates formed a new independent committee to guide autism research priorities and counter recent federal changes. The group aims to unite the autism community and protect evidence-based research as funding reaches $568 million annually.
A scientist who revolutionized protein research is now tackling science's reproducibility crisis with AI. His new approach could help researchers separate reliable studies from questionable ones, speeding up cures for diseases like Alzheimer's.
Scientists now have access to an AI tool that filters through 150 years of research data to deliver trustworthy answers in seconds. CAS Newton helps researchers move from question to verified answer without drowning in information overload.
A new AI system from China's Zhejiang University just claimed the top spot on an international test for autonomous scientific research, beating out major competitors. The breakthrough shows how AI is getting better at thinking through complex research problems independently.
When US funding cuts threatened to collapse decades of life-saving health research in South Africa, the country fought back with a $32 million rescue package. Now 59 critical HIV and tuberculosis research projects are moving forward.
Billions in private donations are accelerating life-saving medical discoveries that might otherwise take decades or never happen. From cancer treatments to brain disease research, philanthropic funding is helping researchers pursue bold ideas with the flexibility government grants can't provide.
