Virtual Reality distracts kids from pain

Researchers believe Virtual Reality (VR) headsets may help reduce children’s anxiety and their experience of pain when they undergo injections in an emergency department (ED). JCU’s Professor Cate Nagle was one of a team of scientists who examined the emerging technology. They analyzed four studies on the use of VR on patients 4 – 17...

Researchers make first steps toward a cure for HIV

Researchers have developed a way to pull HIV out of the latent reservoir making the virus visible to the immune system and providing the potential to be killed by treatment. Part of what has made HIV infection so difficult to cure, is that once the virus enters the body, some of it hides dormant inside...

Simple molecular reagents to treat Alzheimer’s disease

CREDIT: PROFESSOR MI HEE LIM, KAIST Sometimes the most complex problems actually have very simple solutions. A group of South Korean researchers reported an efficient and effective redox-based strategy for incorporating multiple functions into simple molecular reagents against neurodegenerative disorders. The team developed redox-active aromatic molecular reagents with a simple structural composition that can simultaneously...
