August is #NationalBreastfeedingMonth. Sarah Taylor of Yale Pediatrics shares what research can tell us about the multifaceted benefits of #breastmilk for infant development.
We are pleased to #welcome Meghan Fay as incoming Associate Vice President for Medical School Development and Alumni Affairs. Fay currently serves as the inaugural dean for advancement at Columbia Climate School. She steps into her new role at YSM effective October 1.
A YSM team led by Janet Lydecker, PhD has created the first evidence-based therapy for young victims of #bullying. Researchers share promising #results in the latest International Journal of Eating Disorders. #medtwitter brnw.ch/21wLLn7
An American Heart Association statement co-authored by Yale Internal Medicine's Carlos Mena finds that #renal denervation, a catheter-based procedure that silences the renal nervous system, is an effective #treatment for many patients with #hypertension. brnw.ch/21wLNXU
In a study published in Science Immunology, a YSM team including Yale Internal Medicine's Erol Fikrig, MD, finds that a protein in #mosquito saliva binds to hosts' #immune receptors – weakening the body's response to viruses like #dengue and yellow fever: brnw.ch/21wLQA4
In a new study published in Science Magazine, Yale Neuroscience researchers including Michael Crair, PhD, show how the wiring of the #brain is driven by the firing of #braincells, even early in #development before #sensory input begins. brnw.ch/21wLTks
In a recent PLOS ONE study, a team including Yale Emergency Medicine's Arjun and Yale Internal Medicine's Erica Spatz finds patients reporting more severe #longCOVID symptoms were significantly less likely to be #backtowork three months after #infection: news.yale.edu/2024/08/15/sic…
New YSM-led research in Science Magazine offers the closest look yet at how the SARS-CoV-2 #virus's spike protein works to bind and fuse with host #cells. The team's findings offer a new target for more effective future #vaccines. brnw.ch/21wLXid
Research at Yale doesn’t take a #summerbreak! Michael Crair, PhD, of @YaleOpthalmology and Yale Neuroscience, discusses on-campus innovations in #AI and #biotech, and the important role federal #funding plays in basic science: brnw.ch/21wM00J
In a Cell Metabolism study, a team led by Yale Internal Medicine's Gerald Shulman, MD, uncovers new details about how the #liver metabolizes #fat. Their findings could lead to new treatments for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (#MASLD): brnw.ch/21wM5rt
