| Could a fecal transplant one day be the secret of eternal youth? Posted: 02 Oct 2020 06:10 AM PDT Fecal transplants could one day be used to restore cognitive decline among the elderly - according to new research. A new study shows how fecal transplants from older to younger mice altered their gut microbiome, which in turn impacted their spatial learning and memory. The research team hope the reverse could also be true, and one day used as a therapy to restore cognitive function in older people. |
| Bright light bars big-eyed birds from human-altered landscapes Posted: 01 Oct 2020 05:02 PM PDT New research shows the glaring light in human-altered landscapes, such as livestock pastures and crop fields, can act as a barrier to big-eyed birds, potentially contributing to their decline. |
| Safety and effectiveness of fecal microbiota transplantation Posted: 01 Oct 2020 08:36 AM PDT Today, the American Gastroenterological Association (AGA) released the first results from the largest real-world study on the safety and effectiveness of FMT. The registry reported that FMT led to a cure of Clostridioides difficile (C. difficile) infection in 90% of patients across 20 North American FMT practice sites. Few serious side effects were reported. |
| Fecal transplantation can restore the gut microbiota of C-section babies Posted: 01 Oct 2020 08:35 AM PDT Birth by Cesarean section is detrimental to normal gut microbiota development. Researchers demonstrated that the intestinal microbiota development can be restored by postnatal, orally-delivered transplantation of maternal fecal microbiota. |
| The most sensitive optical receivers yet for space communications Posted: 01 Oct 2020 06:01 AM PDT Communications in space demand the most sensitive receivers possible for maximum reach, while also requiring high bit-rate operations. A novel concept for laser-beam based communications, using an almost noiseless optical preamplifier in the receiver, was recently demonstrated by researchers. |
