Women’s Health Research at Yale announced the five latest pilot projects to join its program, and a partnership with Yale Cancer Center.

This summer, we saw a first-of-its-kind cross-sector collaboration – a leader in academic research and a national women’s health nonprofit joined forces to amplify the power of women’s health research and investment. The collaborative symposium “From Discovery to Impact: Accelerating Women's Health Research Through Science, Policy, and Investment” hosted by Women’s Health Research at Yale and the Society for Women’s Health Research (SWHR) on June 15 in New Haven, Conn., welcomed more than 50 speakers, researchers from 28 departments across Yale, and gathered 350+ attendees for a day-long event that covered the power of women’s health research through an arc of discovery to practical impact.

A massive scientific initiative to decode how aging reshapes the human body reached a major milestone this month. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) Cellular Senescence Network (SenNet) published its first wave of discoveries, highlighted by a cover commentary in the journal Cell led by Rong Fan, PhD, Harold Hodgkinson Professor of Biomedical Engineering at Yale School of Engineering and Applied Science (SEAS) and of Pathology at Yale School of Medicine (YSM), alongside researchers from nine other institutions.

A new study co-led by Yale scientists reveals that antibodies from some long COVID patients attacked brain and nerve tissues, a finding that could point toward treatments.

Stem cells have reshaped modern biology. At Yale School of Medicine, researchers are uncovering how they function and how to harness them for human health.

Researchers in the Vascular Biology and Therapeutics Program are working to address chronic inflammation, heart disease, and more.

Growing evidence from Yale suggests that regular physical activity can help lower cancer risk and improve outcomes. Experts emphasize that while exercise isn’t a cure-all, even moderate activity may offer meaningful benefits.

David A. Alagpulinsa, PhD, assistant professor in the Department of Comparative Medicine, has received a New Investigator Gateway Award for Collaborative T1D Research from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) and two Breakthrough T1D Innovative Awards.

Calorie restriction lowers C3, an immune protein tied to aging and inflammation, improving health without requiring weight loss.
