About The Study: In this population-based cross-sectional analysis of breast cancer incidence trends among older U.S. women, racial and ethnic as well as stage-specific patterns differed across age groups, highlighting the importance of disaggregating breast cancer incidence rates into age groups better aligned with screening guidelines. Future research is needed to directly examine the contribution of screening patterns to these trends and their impact on breast cancer mortality.

WASHINGTON, June 24, 2025 — When you think of solar panels, you usually picture giant cells mounted to face the sun. But what if “solar” cells could be charged using fluorescent lights?
Perovskite solar cells (PeSCs) have emerged as a lower-cost, higher-efficiency alternative to traditional silicon solar cells due to their material structure and physical flexibility. Their large power conversion efficiency rate (PCE), which is the amount of energy created from the amount of energy hitting the cell, makes PeSCs well suited to converting lower light sources into energy.

Using stem cells from patients with ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis), Cedars-Sinai has created a lifelike model of the mysterious and fatal disease that could help identify a cause of the illness as well as effective treatments.
In a study published in the peer-reviewed journal Cell Stem Cell, investigators detail how they created “ALS on a chip” and the clues the specialized laboratory chip has already produced about nongenetic causes of the disease, also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease.
The work builds ...

Teens who see social media posts showing cannabis or e-cigarettes, including from friends and influencers, are more likely to later start using those substances or to report using them in the past month, according to surveys done by researchers at the Keck School of Medicine of USC. Viewing such posts was linked to cannabis use, as well as dual use of cannabis and e-cigarettes (vapes). Dual use refers to youth who have used both cannabis and e-cigarettes at some point. The results were just published in JAMA Network Open.
The findings come amid a decline in youth e-cigarette use, reported in 2024 by the U.S. Food ...

Even the smartest machines can’t match young minds at language learning. Researchers share new findings on how children stay ahead of AI - and why it matters.
If a human learned language at the same rate as ChatGPT, it would take them 92,000 years. While machines can crunch massive datasets at lightning speed, when it comes to acquiring natural language, children leave artificial intelligence in the dust.
A newly published framework in Trends in Cognitive Sciences by Professor Caroline Rowland of the Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics, in collaboration with colleagues at the ESRC LuCiD Centre in the UK, presents a novel framework to explain how children ...

Tokyo, Japan – Mimicking the incredible skill of mother nature is never easy, especially when trying to match the remarkable chemical processes that take place in living organisms. Living systems, like cells, can carry out chemical reactions in very small spaces, sometimes involving single molecules. For many years, researchers have attempted to emulate this to allow for the manufacturing of specialized chemical compounds, but with limited success.
However, new research published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society highlights the development of a new tool that assists with controlling chemical reactions. ...

A pretreatment step could help transplanted pancreatic islets survive longer in patients with type 1 diabetes, according to a new preclinical study from Weill Cornell Medicine investigators. One combination of small molecules extended the cells’ lives in female mice, and adding two molecules to the mixture boosted cell survival in male mice.
The findings, published on June 24 in Cell Stem Cell, could allow physicians to treat more patients with fewer cells.
In type 1 diabetes, autoimmune cells attack the pancreatic islets, destroying ...

Going off to summer camp can be a scary experience for children, but it can be even more nerve-wracking for parents of kids with food allergies. New UVA Health research reveals the most cost-effective way to keep those children safe.
For most summer camps, stocking a supply of epinephrine – a common treatment for allergic reactions – rather than leaving it up to campers to bring their own is a safe strategy with the lowest overall cost for everyone involved, the UVA researchers found.
“Stock, unassigned ...
