PTSD following sexual assault linked to profound fronto-limbic brain changes

Around 70% of women who suffer a sexual assault develop PTSD; now scientists have shown that many of these women show a marked reduction in the usual communication between two important brain areas involved in processing and control of emotions, the amygdala and the pre-frontal cortex.

Study uncovers key protein complex controlling sperm motility and male fertility

Infertility affects about one in six couples, and male factors account for roughly half of all cases-often because sperm don't swim well.

Brain activity reveals sound outperforms touch in sensing musical rhythm

How do people keep the beat to music? When people listen to songs, slow waves of activity in the brain correspond to the perceived beat so that they can tap their feet, nod their heads, or dance along.

Botched Botox: Study uncovers severe malpractice behind botulism cluster

A rapid investigation in North East England uncovered 25 cases of iatrogenic botulism linked to cosmetic injections using unlicensed, highly potent botulinum products. The study exposes critical safety failures in practitioner conduct and highlights urgent regulatory gaps in the booming cosmetic injectables industry.

How genomic screening in newborns found 16 hidden disorders standard tests overlooked

Genomic newborn screening using whole-genome sequencing identified 1.6% of infants with high-chance, treatable genetic conditions, far beyond the capacity of standard biochemical screening. The BabyScreen+ study demonstrated clinical impact, cascade diagnoses, and strong parental acceptance, while highlighting challenges in scalability and equity.
