Health Education Advocacy and Learning (HEAL) is a non-profit collaborative created to provide every community with access to resources that will help them thrive. Through HEAL, communities of color are educated, advocated for, and connected. While HEAL Collaborative works across many areas of health conditions, they have been especially active with advocating for those with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)—a long-term condition categorized as the gradual decline in kidney health and function.
Researchers have discovered a new cell division pathway in MRSA that enables high-level resistance to β-lactam antibiotics, marking a critical insight into the persistence of these 'superbugs'.
A drug commonly used to treat glaucoma has been shown in zebrafish and mice to protect against the build-up in the brain of the protein tau, which causes various forms of dementia and is implicated in Alzheimer’s disease.
While orphan drugs are crucial to treating rare, sometimes debilitating conditions, the high cost of their research and development is a major barrier in India
Researchers used Raman spectroscopy to study bone chemistry in sailors from the Mary Rose, revealing aging patterns and potential handedness impacts on clavicles.
Brain disorders like Parkinson's (PD) or Alzheimer's Disease (AD) start to develop in patients much earlier than when their first clinical symptoms appear. Treating patients at these early stages could slow or even stop their disease, but there is currently no way to diagnose brain disorders at those pre-symptomatic stages.
A study co-led by a Johns Hopkins Children's Center clinician-researcher shows that adding text messaging and other electronic feedback to traditional in-clinic health counseling for parents about feeding habits, playtime and exercise prevents very young children from developing obesity and potentially lifelong obesity-related problems.
Former teacher Professor of Education David Putwain says 'heavy-handed' messages around test results can fuel extreme worry among some 16 to 18-year-olds, even when others respond well to such messages.

Socioeconomic factors such as education, occupation, and wealth influence the likelihood of developing cognitive impairment or dementia in later life and whether a person is likely to recover, finds a new study led by UCL researchers.
A University of Rochester research team is reporting a new way to detect cancer cells with a "liquid biopsy" that's designed to be simpler, faster, and more informational than current methods.
Alimetry has raised an oversubscribed US $18m A2 financing round to commercialize its wearable gut health monitoring device, capitalizing on increased adoption by a growing cohort of US hospitals.
Household microbiomes are communities of microorganisms that inhabit the surfaces and environments within your home. According to recent research published in the Frontiers in Microbiology journal, 1 certain surfaces and environments in your household harbor diverse communities of bacteriophages. Showerheads and toothbrushes are particularly significant as they serve as constant habitats for these microbes, creating glue-like communities — called “biofilms” — where these tiny organisms thrive. 2
Some Australian mothers regard navigating their personal health care in between pregnancies as confusing, inconsistent, and hard to access, new research by a Monash University-led team has found.
You've probably heard that moderate alcohol consumption isn't likely to harm your health and may even be beneficial. But it's becoming increasingly clear that even small amounts of alcohol can harm your health. A recent large-scale study involving participants from the UK Biobank has shed new light on the relationship between alcohol consumption and gout risk. 1 Surprisingly, even light to moderate consumption of several alcoholic beverages was associated with an increased risk of gout.
We use our lips to talk, eat, drink, and breathe; they signal our emotions, health, and aesthetic beauty. It takes a complex structure to perform so many roles, so lip problems can be hard to repair effectively. Basic research is essential to improving these treatments, but until now, models using lip cells -; which perform differently to other skin cells -; have not been available.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said Sunday former President Trump assured him that he would get a role in the White House if the GOP ticket wins Tuesday. In an interview on Fox News with Martha MacCallum, Kennedy pushed back on comments made by Trump-Vance transition team co-Chair Howard Lutnick this past week, when he said Kennedy is “not getting a job” as leader of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).
A new USC study involving 8,500 children from across the country reveals that a form of air pollution, largely the product of agricultural emissions, is linked to poor learning and memory performance in 9- and 10-year-olds.

Neuroblastoma (NB), the most prevalent extracranial solid tumor in children, poses a significant therapeutic challenge due to its metastasis and high heterogeneity. A recent study leveraging single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) has uncovered vital molecular mechanisms underlying NB's progression and metastasis, shedding light on potential therapeutic targets.
A team led by researchers at the University of Toronto has discovered that a group of cells located in the skin and other areas of the body, called neural crest stem cells, are the source of reprogrammed neurons found by other researchers.
