Researchers worked with a family with triplets to study a lullaby device used in the intensive care unit.

A long-term, UCLA-led study finds that those with low- or intermediate-risk disease can safely cut treatment to four to five days.

Vladimir Vassiliev, professor of physics and astronomy, has served as principal investigator on project that could help address questions in very-high-energy astrophysics.

Changes in RNA editing play an important role in the disorder, scientists find.

Study is the first to analyze public health impact of the emerging personal transportation option.

En 2010 y 2011, 8,943 hombres de 15 a 50 años de edad en Chihuahua fueron asesinados: tres veces el número de muertes entre las tropas de los Estados Unidos en Irak desde 2003 y 2006.

UCLA researchers already are working with a bicycle manufacturer on prototype frames that would use the alloy.

A self-imposed quest for a perfect time to enjoy an indulgence often means missing out on actually having a good experience, research finds.

At the heart of the dispute is the Hubble constant, a number that relates distances to the redshifts of galaxies — the amount that light is stretched as it travels to Earth.

In a ‘game-changing’ finding, researchers found that bone mass increased 800% after signals were blocked in the brains of mice.

A technique they developed coaxes pluripotent stem cells — which can can be grown indefinitely in the lab — into becoming mature T cells capable of killing tumor cells.

The paper recommends nearly a dozen policy strategies aimed at ensuring adequate staffing and training to serve the growing number of elderly people in the state.

The condition, which affects red blood cells’ ability to produce regulatory T cells, can affect the intestines, pancreas and thyroid, as well as other parts of the body.

The findings could lead to a better understanding of the metabolic needs of many different types of cancer.

Teachers receive free directions, lesson plans and instructional videos for experiments on climate, oceans and atmosphere.

Five experiments by UCLA psychologists demonstrate the severe limitations of ‘deep learning’ machines.

The personnel use a screening process for determining whether to “medically clear” patients experiencing psychiatric emergencies. The cleared patients are taken to a special psychiatric emergency service facility.

The research, conducted at the UCLA Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care Program, also shows that the program was cost-neutral after accounting for its costs.

The drug, previously developed to treat depression, was found to increase levels of an enzyme that may delay the onset of Alzheimer’s symptoms and the buildup of a toxic protein.

The UCLA report calls for conservation, policy and infrastructure improvements.

Researchers discover a significant gap by race and income between those who are interested in and those who participate in civic activity.

The study also found that people who were more conservative tended to have a higher “conspiracy mentality.”

The framework takes images from a simple, inexpensive microscope and produces images that mimic those from more advanced and expensive ones.

To help the new system “learn” more like people do, the engineers immersed it in an internet replica of the real world.

“The platform is like a motion detector for the microscopic world because of its ability to lock onto any moving objects in a fluid sample,” said Yibo Zhang, a UCLA doctoral student and the study’s first author.
