    Novel genomic screening tool enables precision reverse-engineering of genetic programming in cells

    Collaborative research led by investigators at Dana-Farber/Boston Children’s Cancer and Blood Disorders Center defines a novel approach to understanding how certain proteins called transcription factors determine which genetic programs will drive cell growth and maturation. The method, called “Perturb-multiome,” uses CRISPR to knock out the function of individual transcription factors across many blood cells at once.

    The researchers then perform single-cell analyses on each cell to measure…

    How U.S. public health cuts could raise risks of infectious diseases

    At 6 a.m. on March 25, Philip Huang, director of the Dallas County Health and Human Services department, got a devastating email. Millions of dollars in federal grants that the health agency had were suddenly gone.

    The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services had just rescinded about $12 billion from thousands of state and local health agencies, including Huang’s.

    Some of that money was part of a COVID-19 recovery program that health departments were using to beef up…

    Signs identified that precede sudden arrhythmic death syndrome in young people

    Recognising and detecting the signs that commonly precede sudden arrhythmic death syndrome (SADS) may help to prevent premature deaths, according to research presented today at ESC Preventive Cardiology 2025, a scientific congress of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC).

    “SADS has not been well evaluated despite being one of the most common underlying causes of sudden cardiac death in young people, including young athletes,” said study author Dr. Matilda Frisk Torell of Sahlgrenska…

    Molecular stool test could improve detection of tuberculosis in adults with HIV

    The Xpert MTB/Ultra molecular diagnostic test for stool samples, until now recommended only for children, could be established as an additional test for diagnosing tuberculosis in adults living with HIV. This is the main conclusion of the Stool4TB Alliance study, led by the Barcelona Institute for Global Health (ISGlobal), an institution supported by the “la Caixa” Foundation, in collaboration with the Manhiça Health Research Centre (CISM), the Research Center Borstel, the Makerere…
