Eating a high-fat diet will typically result in weight gain. But a new study published in Nature Metabolism has uncovered an unexpected biological loophole that turns fat storage into fat usage. In the study, mice became obese when consuming high-fat food, as expected.

Local pharmacies fill more than 90% of prescriptions in the United States, making them essential for much of the population. They're also key providers of vaccines and services such as medication management. Much like food deserts—areas where people lack adequate access to affordable, healthy food—pharmacy deserts have too few pharmacies to support the population, and they pose a threat to medication access and public health.

Yale researchers have uncovered evidence that babies can store memories far earlier than we once thought. Credit: SciTechDaily.comFor years, scientists believed that our first memories vanished because the brain wasn’t developed enough to store them. But groundbreaking Yale research suggests otherwise. Infants can encode and recall memories—even if we can’t access them later in life.

Though we learn so much during our first years of life, we can’t, as adults, remember specific events from that time. Researchers have long believed we don’t hold onto these experiences because the part of the brain responsible for saving memories — the hippocampus — is still developing well into adolescence and just can’t encode memories in our earliest years. But new Yale research finds evidence that’s not the case.

In 2019, Yale helped launch medRxiv, a preprint server that revolutionized how health researchers share their findings. Just months later, the COVID-19 pandemic hit and underscored medRxiv’s critical role in global health research.

The severity of symptoms in posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) varies greatly across individuals in the first year after trauma and it remains difficult to predict whether someone might worsen, improve, or recover. In a new study, Yale researchers used brain imaging and machine learning to build models that were able to predict the severity of PTSD symptoms, in both the short and long term, in people who experienced traumatic events.
