MIT Technology Review interviews Fikadu Tafesse, Ph.D., regarding a federal plan to limit access to COVID vaccines to people 65 and older and those with conditions that make them more susceptible to severe disease. Citing OHSU research suggesting immunity gathers strength with more time between vaccination and infection, he says, “One year is really a random time. If you are at risk [of a serious COVID infection] you may actually need [a dose] every six months. But for healthy individuals, it’s a very different conversation.”

OHSU research to develop a new kind of nanoparticle to make ultrasound-based cancer treatments more effective and safer, Michael Henderson, B.A., says, “Our approach here doesn’t use heat. Instead, we use the energy released from the bubbles popping, which reduces the energy required for ultrasound treatment by a hundredfold.”

Research identifies a type of chemical compound designed and synthesized at OHSU to targets parasites causing malaria instead of the mosquitoes that carry them. Michael Riscoe, Ph.D., says, “We all feel so fortunate to be working on this project because of its vast potential to save lives.”

The Lund Report covers new research published in the journal Nature that identifies a type of chemical compound designed and synthesized at OHSU to targets parasites causing malaria instead of the mosquitoes that carry them. Michael Riscoe, Ph.D., says, “We all feel so fortunate to be working on this project because of its vast potential to save lives.”

In a Men’s Health article on potential health benefits of wearing tinted glasses, Andrew McHill, Ph.D., says wearing tinted glasses 24/7 could be detrimental: “Getting lots of daytime light — whether it’s natural or artificial — actually helps keep our brains awake, suppresses melatonin, and synchronizes our internal clocks.”
