Sep 28th, 2021 - Every 40 seconds, an American has a stroke. About 750,000 new strokes occur in the United States each year. Restoring brain function after a stroke remains a challenge. Functional recovery from brain damage requires networks of nerves to adapt and reorganize. This “neuroplasticity” naturally occurs during early development. But studies in rodents suggest that there is a brief period of similarl...

Mar 17th, 2020 - Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death in the United States. If people at high risk of heart attack, stroke, and related conditions could be identified, medications and lifestyle changes may help reduce their risk of disease and death. Traditionally, heart disease risk has been assessed using clinical measurements. These include body mass index (BMI)—a ratio of weight to heig...
