When it comes to strokes, doctors have a mantra: time is brain. Delaying treatment even by minutes can mean the difference between a normal life and permanent disability, or even life and death.

A new study by MSU and University of Michigan researchers found that individuals who add diversity to their science teams surprisingly do not experience positive outcomes.

An almost certain death sentence 30 years ago, having HIV today has lost its fatal sting. In just over 20 years, the development of Antiretroviral Therapies, or ART, has ensured that deadly outcomes for HIV-positive adults and children have decreased dramatically.

New MSU research sheds light on the bias people have toward people with disabilities, known as “ableism,” and how it shifts over time.

MSU researchers have found that many stroke patients feel unprepared when discharged from the hospital. But when a home-based support network using social work case managers and online resources is put into place, quality of life and confidence in managing one’s health improve.

Individuals with interest in global health and development, health policy and related areas can prepare for numerous experiences by enrolling in MSU's new Master of Science, or M.S., degree and certificate program.

Medical records rarely tell a patient’s whole story. Even in the best of circumstances, details and nuances are often lost in records to a listing of symptoms recorded on charts. But what if a tool was available to assess a patient’s progress or point to how a patient might respond to a specific treatment?

MSU’s College of Music will host its fourth annual summer piano festival specifically designed to benefit advanced music students who are on the autism spectrum.

Alyssa Corpus and Jack Dodson, undergraduate students in MSU’s Department of Microbiology and Molecular Genetics, or MMG, in the College of Natural Science, were both selected for the prestigious and highly competitive Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship, or SURF, program from the American Society for Microbiology, or ASM.

A team of scientists, including two from Michigan State University, has been awarded a four-year, $2.5 million grant from the National Science Foundation.
