(Press-News.org) About The Study: This study found that over time, the trajectory of sports gambling frequency was associated with the trajectory of alcohol-related problems. Screening and treatment interventions are recommended for sport gamblers who also drink concurrently, especially because this group appears to be at an elevated risk for developing greater alcohol-related problems over time.

For better quantum sensing, go with the flow
2025-03-05
Combine a garden-variety green laser, microwaves with roughly the energy of your wi-fi, and some diamond dust in drops of water, and what do you get? A precise chemical detection tool.
For the first time, researchers have combined nanodiamonds in microdroplets of liquid for quantum sensing. The new technique is precise, fast, sensitive, and requires only small amounts of the material to be studied – helpful when studying trace chemicals or individual cells. The results were published in the journal Science Advances in December.

Toxic environmental pollutants linked to faster aging and health risks in US adults
2025-03-05
“Environmental chemical exposures represent a key modifiable risk factor impacting human health and longevity, and our findings provide evidence for associations between several environmental exposures and epigenetic aging in a large sample representative of the US adult population.”
BUFFALO, NY — March 5, 2025 — A new research paper was published in Aging (Aging-US) on February 11, 2025, Volume 17, Issue 2, titled “Exposome-wide association study of environmental chemical exposures ...
Jerome Morris voted AERA President-Elect; key members elected to AERA Council
2025-03-05
Jerome E. Morris, the E. Desmond Lee Endowed Professor of Urban Education at the University of Missouri–St. Louis, has been voted president-elect of the American Educational Research Association (AERA). Morris joins the AERA Council in 2025–2026 as president-elect, and his presidency begins at the conclusion of the association’s 2026 Annual Meeting.
Morris leverages his upbringing in public housing and attending predominantly Black public schools in Birmingham, Alabama, to inform his research, which examines the intersection of ...
Study reveals how agave plants survive extreme droughts
2025-03-05
WASHINGTON — Agave plants may be best known for their role in tequila production, but they are also remarkably adept at retaining water in extremely dry environments. In a new study, researchers used terahertz spectroscopy and imaging to gain new insights into how these succulents store and manage water to survive in dry conditions.
“Understanding how plants adapt to dry conditions could lead to better farming practices and be used to develop crops that require less water,” said Monica Ortiz-Martinez ...
Aligning Science Across Parkinson’s (ASAP) launches a second funding opportunity to accelerate novel tool development to advance Parkinson's disease research
2025-03-05
The Aligning Science Across Parkinson’s (ASAP) initiative opened applications for research community members to apply for funding to develop novel tools to advance Parkinson’s disease (PD) research. The Collaborative Research Network (CRN) 2025 Technical Track grants will support the development of sustainable tools to accelerate validation and therapeutic research and discovery for emerging targets identified through ASAP discoveries, offering funding of up to $2M per year over three years, up to $6M total.
"By bringing researchers together to generate new preclinical tools for targets studied in our ASAP programs, our goal ...
New study: Eating mangos daily shown to improve insulin sensitivity and blood glucose control
2025-03-05
ORLANDO, Fla. – Mar. 5 2025 – New research has uncovered a potential gamechanger for improving cardiometabolic health: fresh mangos. A study recently published in the journal Nutrients finds that eating two cups of mango, just about 100 calories-worth, daily may help lower insulin concentration levels and improve insulin sensitivity in adults who are overweight or obese with chronic low-grade inflammation. The findings underscore how simple dietary choices could contribute to reducing the risk of chronic conditions like type 2 diabetes, ...
Highly radioactive nuclear waste – how to keep it from oblivion
2025-03-05
Sweden’s radioactive nuclear waste will be stored in a sealed bedrock repository for 100,000 years. It will be hazardous for a very long time. So how can we ensure that humanity does not forget that it is there? Researchers at Linköping University, Sweden, have come up with a proposal for how to keep the memory alive over generations.
“We’re trying to do something that no one has ever done before. The person who eventually reads this might not even be human, but perhaps a kind of AI or something ...
Generations ‘sync’ up in rural ‘glades’ to boost technology use for health
2025-03-05
Given the growing role of mobile technology in supporting older adults, it’s essential to implement initiatives that encourage its adoption among this population. However, older adults are often unfamiliar with mobile technology, especially those in rural areas with limited digital access or literacy.
To bridge this gap, researchers from Florida Atlantic University’s Christine E. Lynn College of Nursing, and collaborators, implemented a pilot study to test an intergenerational program involving high school students, older adults and local faith-based health educators in the “Glades,” a rural community nestled at the ...
Unveiling the mechanism of maintenance of replication and transcription in mitochondria
2025-03-05
Mitochondrial deoxyribonucleic acid (mtDNA) is essential for cellular energy production and overall cell function. Abnormalities in mtDNA are linked to various diseases and are also implicated in aging. Understanding the process of replication and transcription of mtDNA is crucial for improving our knowledge of human health, disease, and aging. However, the mechanisms that regulate the balance between transcription and replication of mtDNA remain unclear.
To unveil the mechanisms, a team of researchers ...
Pioneering research into brain cancer is awarded the world’s largest brain research prize, The Brain Prize
2025-03-05
Gliomas are types of cancers that arise in the brain and are extraordinarily difficult to treat. They are the leading cause of brain tumour-related deaths in both children and adults. Two pioneering scientists are awarded The Brain Prize 2025 for their discoveries that open up an entirely new way of thinking about and understanding these lethal diseases, and the potential strategies to treat them.
Copenhagen, Denmark, March 5th, 2025. Neuroscientists, Professors Michelle Monje (USA) and Frank Winkler (Germany), have made transformative discoveries by showing that neural ...
