Emily LaceyTheir complete essay is over 30 pages and pushed all three counselors to expand their knowledge in an area with little research.
MCG researchers determine which platform is best to rapidly measure how fast the blood is coagulating during surgery.
MCG scientists hope non-invasive and better tests that measure a gene variant commonly found in bladder cancer could help improve patient outcomes.
MCG scientists have discovered the chronic activation of the Adora2a receptor is one way obesity and insulin resistance break down one of the the brain's protections against memory loss and confusion.
Chris CurryIdentifying a protein that plays a key role in cancer cell growth is a first step toward the development of a targeted cancer therapy.
To more accurately diagnose and treat multiple myeloma, scientists should look at the numbers in each arm of the Y-shaped cancer causing proteins differently, since one arm naturally has more, with and without cancer.
Henry HanksGraduates presented their projects on Graduate Research Day on April 1 and 2.

It has long been known that African Americans die at higher rates from bladder cancer than do European Americans. New research looking at differences in the way tumor cells in African American patients metabolize proteins and nutrients could be the...
Dr. Xin-Yun Lu and her team have found inactive SIRT1 in the prefrontal cortex. Activating it may help turn classic symptoms of depression around, particularly in males.
