Neutrinos and CP Violation: IU Scientists Breakthrough
Global Collaboration Illuminates One of Physics’ Greatest Questions Scientists at Indiana University have helped edge humanity closer to answering why matter dominates over nothingness in the universe. In a first-of-its-kind joint analysis, researchers merged insights from two premier international neutrino experiments—NOvA in the United States and T2K in Japan—to study the tiny, elusive particles that…

Harmful DNA Changes in Sperm Rise with Age, Study Finds
Scientists uncover age-related rise in harmful sperm mutations Groundbreaking research published in Nature reveals that harmful genetic changes in sperm become more common as men age. The study, conducted by the Wellcome Sanger Institute in collaboration with the TwinsUK cohort at King’s College London, shows a clear, genome-wide increase in disease-causing mutations in sperm cells…

Harmful DNA changes in sperm rise with age, study finds
New findings reveal how paternal age affects sperm DNA A landmark study published in Nature shows that harmful genetic changes in sperm become substantially more common as men age. Using ultra-accurate DNA sequencing, researchers mapped how bias in sperm production can favor mutations that may be passed on to future generations, overturning assumptions that the…

First Step Toward a Treatment for Tick-Borne Encephalitis (TBE)
New Breakthrough in Tick-Borne Encephalitis Research Tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) remains a growing public health challenge in Europe and Asia as tick and mosquito activity increases. In Sweden alone, health authorities reported 305 TBE cases up to August this year, signaling that 2024 may not reach the record highs of 2023 (595 cases) but is still…

Late-diagnosed autism may be a different form, study finds
New evidence on late-diagnosed autism PARIS — A large international study published in Nature suggests that autism diagnosed later in life could be a distinct form of the condition, different from autism identified in early childhood. The research, carried out by scientists from Denmark, the United States and other countries, focused on whether cases diagnosed…

Late-Diagnosed Autism May Be a Different Form, Study Finds
Late-diagnosed autism may be a different form, study finds A large international study suggests that autism diagnosed later in life could represent a distinct form of the condition, separate from autism identified in early childhood. The research, published in Nature, analyzed thousands of individuals from Denmark and the United States to explore whether late diagnoses…
