With funding from the state's New Economy Initiative, researchers are working to develop precision cancer treatments using 3D-printed environments that mimic human tissue.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention selected the University of Arizona Health Sciences as one of five national sites that will be tracking the burden, distribution and impact of post COVID-19 conditions.
Triple-negative breast cancer accounts for about 10 to 15% of all breast cancers. Researchers have developed a drug they hope can treat it with little to no toxic side effects.
Researchers at UArizona and Penn State University are drawing inspiration from bacteria under the sea to develop technology capable of capturing and repurposing methane, an extremely potent greenhouse gas.
Yeast cells and human immune system cells rely on similar chemical reactions to know when to grow. Scientists have identified differences between the cell types that could help with the development of antifungal drugs.
Ever wonder what gives a forest its pine-fresh scent? The answer is the molecular compound pinene, naturally released by plants. A new study explores how and under what conditions plants emit pinene and other volatile organic compounds into the atmosphere. The results may help scientists detect when an ecosystem is in distress.
Tech Launch Arizona, the university's commercialization arm, recorded 303 novel inventions between July 1, 2021, and June 30 – the most invention disclosures registered for a single year in UArizona history.
A longtime partnership between the Tucson Fire Department and researchers at the University of Arizona Health Sciences provided evidence that occupational exposure as a firefighter causes cancer.
Funding from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention will allow research that started by analyzing COVID-19 immunity and vaccine effectiveness in frontline workers to continue as new variants emerge.
The Center for Advanced Molecular and Immunological Therapies will support research to catalyze the next generation of precision health care treatments, building on the idea that the most effective defense against health issues is the body's natural immune system.
