State, regional, and business leaders joined researchers and students from UT Southwestern Medical Center and The University of Texas at Dallas for the dedication of the Texas Instruments Biomedical Engineering and Sciences Building that will accelerate training for the next generation and foster

A study of mutant models of fragile X syndrome (FXS), a genetic disorder related to autism and intellectual disability, shows that activation of the cerebellum mitigates aberrant responses in sensory processing areas of the brain and improves neurodevelopmental behaviors.

If you’re feeling tired this coming week, don’t be surprised. Moving our clocks ahead one hour to shift into daylight saving time (which occurs at 2 a.m. Sunday) disrupts the body’s biological clock, affecting sleep patterns and how we function, according to a UT Southwestern Medical Center

Everyone experiences stress from time to time. And while brief bouts can be a good thing, prolonged or chronic stress can have negative effects on your overall health.

UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers have identified an experimental molecular compound that significantly improved survival among cellular models and mouse models of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), the fatal neurodegenerative disease.

Following Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols designed to minimize surgical stress results in improved patient recovery and satisfaction, reduced postoperative complications, and shorter hospital stays, according to a review of ERAS programs in minimally invasive gynecologic surgery by
