As extreme weather punishes Europe, Asia and North America, new research shows clear benefits of cooling on physical health of older populations

Inspired by Darwin, researchers believe diversity in the brain’s circuitry could provide window to treating neurological disorders like epilepsy

In a world first, University of Ottawa scientists have introduced a metal-free MRI dye capable of mapping kidney function with unprecedented accuracy. This technique will modernize urology, allow for more personalized care and — ultimately — improve patient outcomes.

Our universe could be twice as old as current estimates, according to a new study that challenges the dominant cosmological model and sheds new light on the so-called “impossible early galaxy problem.”

The comprehensive screening platform and cellular interrogation tool has the potential to facilitate novel drug discovery targeting a slew of human diseases.

Researchers from the University of Ottawa’s Faculty of Science have achieved a significant breakthrough in the field of enzymology.

Dr. Yannick Benoit, the study’s co-first author, says the collaborative research team has established a clear link between different types of cancers and their embryonic origins.

A study of more than 8 million adults in Ontario, Canada suggests that even a modest loss of kidney function is associated with increased health risks. The study, published in The BMJ, could lead to better approaches to prevent chronic kidney disease and related conditions, particularly in younger adults.

A study from University of Ottawa and the Ottawa Hospital shows immune deficits in space are transient, and disappear back on Earth. Scientists have shown that the expression of (mostly protein-coding) genes in white blood cells changes rapidly when astronauts reach the International Space Station. This may explain why astronauts appear more susceptible to infectious diseases while in space. Most ...
