(Press-News.org) About The Study: In this economic evaluation estimating effects of the possible health care policy changes on HIV transmission, findings suggest that even modest reductions in pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) coverage would result in thousands of avoidable HIV infections and billions of dollars of increases in net health care costs.

Clocks created from random events can probe ‘quantumness’ of universe
2025-09-11
A newly discovered set of mathematical equations describes how to turn any sequence of random events into a clock, scientists at King’s College London reveal.
The researchers suggest that these formulae could help to understand how cells in our bodies measure time and to detect the effects of quantum mechanics in the wider world.
Studying these timekeeping processes could have far-reaching implications, helping us to understand proteins with rhythmic movements which malfunction in motor neurone disease or chemical receptors that cells use to detect harmful toxins.
Einstein famously said that “Time is whatever a clock measures” ...
Schaeffer Center white paper outlines FDA reforms to boost pharmaceutical innovation and expand access
2025-09-11
Rapid scientific advances are accelerating the development of medical innovations, from personalized treatments to curative gene therapies and advanced diagnostic tools. But significant policy and regulatory reforms at the Food and Drug Administration are needed to fully harness the game-changing potential of these technologies, according to a new white paper from the USC Schaeffer Center for Health Policy & Economics.
The white paper offers comprehensive recommendations for how FDA can modernize drug development by streamlining clinical trials, providing clearer guidance to drugmakers about newer technologies, and improving agency efficiency amid ...
Michael Welsh, MD, wins Lasker Award for cystic fibrosis research
2025-09-11
Michael J. Welsh, MD, University of Iowa professor of internal medicine, has won the 2025 Lasker-DeBakey Clinical Medical Research Award for his fundamental research on cystic fibrosis (CF), which paved the way to new therapies that have transformed the health and life expectancy of people with CF.
Lasker Awards, sometimes called “America’s Nobels,” are among the world’s most prestigious biomedical and clinical research awards.
Welsh shares the award with Jesús (Tito) González (formerly, Vertex ...
The metals reveal: The Bronze Age was more connected than we previously thought
2025-09-11
In the Bronze Age, the so-called Nuraghe culture flourished in Sardinia. A culture that is known for tower-like stone constructions, nuraghers, and for the small bronze figures, bronzetti, which often depict warriors, gods and animals. These figures have fascinated scientists, but their exact metallic origins have been unknown.
To find out where the copper in these figures came from, the research team used a new scientific method called a multi-proxy approach (a combination of different chemical analyses). Here, they compared isotopes of copper, tin, lead and a rarer isotope called ...
Portable light-based brain monitor shows promise for dementia diagnosis
2025-09-11
Early and accurate diagnosis of dementia remains a major challenge. Standard approaches such as MRI and PET scans can provide valuable information about brain structure and function, but they are expensive, not always accessible, and often too expensive for repeated use. A team of researchers in the UK has now demonstrated that a compact, noninvasive technology—broadband near-infrared spectroscopy (bNIRS)—may offer a new way to detect brain changes linked to Alzheimer’s disease, even in the early stages.
In this pilot study reported in the Journal of Biomedical Optics, scientists used bNIRS to monitor both blood ...
AI tools uncover new link between idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and aging
2025-09-11
“Our findings establish novel connections between aging biology and IPF pathogenesis while demonstrating the potential of AI-guided approaches in therapeutic development for age-related diseases.”
BUFFALO, NY — September 11, 2025 — A new research paper was published in Volume 17, Issue 8 of Aging-US on August 8, 2025, titled “AI-driven toolset for IPF and aging research associates lung fibrosis with accelerated aging.”
In this study, researchers Fedor Galkin, Shan Chen, Alex Aliper, Alex Zhavoronkov, and Feng Ren from Insilico Medicine used artificial ...
Researchers revive the pinhole camera for next-gen infrared imaging
2025-09-11
WASHINGTON — Researchers have used the centuries-old idea of pinhole imaging to create a high-performance mid-infrared imaging system without lenses. The new camera can capture extremely clear pictures over a large range of distances and in low light, making it useful for situations that are challenging for traditional cameras.
“Many useful signals are in the mid-infrared, such as heat and molecular fingerprints, but cameras working at these wavelengths are often noisy, expensive or require cooling,” said research team leader Heping Zeng from East China Normal University. “Moreover, traditional lens-based setups have ...
Gender gap in Africa’s water leadership undermines fair policymaking
2025-09-11
A new analysis by UN University scientists reveals that African women remain significantly underrepresented in key leadership positions in the water sector across the continent
Richmond Hill, Canada – 11 September 2025: Women experience major consequences from water scarcity and pollution. Across the world, many women and girls lose education and employment opportunities due to spending long hours fetching water. They also face major health and safety risks due to lack of access to safe water to satisfy their menstrual and hygiene needs. Yet they remain underrepresented in leadership and decision-making in water governance, leaving policies disconnected ...
