Doubling the amount of grains that a sorghum plant can yield

Plant scientists at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) and USDA’s Agricultural Research Service (ARS), in their search for solutions to global food production challenges, have doubled the amount of grains that a sorghum plant can yield. Sorghum, one of the world’s most important sources of food, animal feed, and biofuel, is considered a model crop

Is the next agricultural revolution really here?

As a growing population and climate change threaten food security, researchers around the world are working to overcome the challenges that threaten the dietary needs of humans and livestock. A pair of scientists is now making the case that the knowledge and tools exist to facilitate the next agricultural revolution we so desperately need. Cold

Do cancer drugs always work as intended?

Scientists at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) have identified 10 cancer drugs currently in clinical trials that do not work how clinicians thought they would. In identifying what went wrong, experts can now work to improve drug discovery and personalized medicine. The discovery started out with an entirely different goal. Over the past few years,

A different approach to treatment for pancreatic cancer

Pancreatic cancer has a grim prognosis. It is usually detected after the disease has spread, and chemotherapy tends to do little to slow the cancer’s growth. Even with treatment, most patients live only about six months after they are diagnosed with the disease. Researchers in Professor David Tuveson’s laboratory at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) think

Revolutionary method to map the brain at single-neuron resolution is successfully demonstrated

MAPseq uses RNA sequencing to rapidly and inexpensively find the diverse destinations of thousands of neurons in a single experiment in a single animal Neuroscientists today publish in Neuron details of a revolutionary new way of mapping the brain at the resolution of individual neurons, which they have successfully demonstrated in the mouse brain. The

Smart cornfields of the future: redesigning photosynthesis

Can scientists hack photosynthesis to feed the world as population soars? The world population, which stood at 5 billion in 1950, is predicted to increase to 10.5 billion by 2050.  It’s a stunning number since it means the planet’s population has doubled within the lifetimes of many people alive today. At the same time, arable

Unconventional Hunt for New Cancer Targets Leads to a Powerful Drug Candidate for Leukemia

Scientists at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) and five other institutions have used an unconventional approach to cancer drug discovery to identify a new potential treatment for acute myeloid leukemia (AML). As reported in Nature online on August 3, the scientists have pinpointed a protein called Brd4 as a novel drug target for AML, an
