Mashup Score: 0UIC Logo - 5 month(s) ago
Researchers have identified a new way to screen genes that cause several different types of cancers to grow, identifying particularly promising targets for precision oncology in oral and esophageal squamous cancers. “There’s a tremendous amount of data in The Cancer Genome Atlas, and the field has developed life-prolonging and lifesaving precision medicines. But only a minority of these data tell us how cancers grow and whether it’s a drug target,” explained lead author Dr. Ameen Salahudeen, an assistant

Time-restricted eating, also known as intermittent fasting, can help people with Type 2 diabetes lose weight and control their blood sugar levels, according to a new study published in JAMA Network Open from researchers at the University of Illinois Chicago. Participants who ate only during an eight-hour window between noon and 8 p.m. each day actually lost more weight over six months than participants who were instructed to reduce their calorie intake by 25%. Both groups had similar reductions in

Illustration of a carbon capture process designed by UIC College of Engineering scientists. Carbon dioxide from air or flue gas is absorbed by a dry organic solution to form bicarbonate ions, which migrate across a membrane and are dissolved in a liquid solution to concentrated CO2. Carbon atoms are shown in red, oxygen atoms are shown in blue and hydrogen atoms are shown in white. (Credit:…
