An article published by the full professor of the Department of Paediatrics, Obstetrics and Gynaecology of the University of Valencia (UV) Carlos Simón and his research team (UV, INCLIVA and Carlos Simón Foundation) in the journal Nature Communications , describes for the first time the cellular alterations responsible for Asherman's Syndrome at the single cell level.

New research published in a high impact journal shows that there could be "one Ring to rule them all" orchestrating brain dynamics, in some ways similar to Tolkien's famous poem in The Lord of the Rings. The study has identified a ring of regions of the prefrontal cortex which sits at the top of the hierarchical system governing brain dynamics. This allows the brain to manage information flow in the most efficient way needed for both survival and thriving.

Professors from the Department of Aerospace Engineering and Fluid Mechanics of the School of Engineering of the University of Seville have developed a method for mass production of microfibers -very thin fibers-, which have numerous applications, for example, they are used to manufacture masks and PPEs, regenerate tissues, for energy generation and storage systems or for the so-called "smart fabrics". The discovery is intended to revolutionize conventional methods, since the technology used is more efficient and would multiply production a thousandfold.

An international team led by the Institute of Molecular Science (ICMol) of the University of Valencia has opened a new path in the research of so-called -magnet molecules-. It has developed a nanomagnet of great simplicity and high stability, which is an effective tool for basic science from which the quantum technologies of the future will be based. The work appears published in the journal Chem.

The ’ring’ of regions orchestrating brain function
New research published in a high impact journal shows that there could be "one Ring to rule them all" orchestrating brain dynamics, in some ways similar to Tolkien's famous poem in The Lord of the Rings. The study has identified a ring of regions of the prefrontal cortex which sits at the top of the hierarchical system governing brain dynamics.

Scientists from the European research project Micro4Biogas have discovered and characterised a new taxonomic order of bacteria which specialise in the decomposition of organic matter and could hold the key to improving biogas fuel production. The order, which they have dubbed Darwinibacteriales, is one of the most abundant in biogas-producing tanks but had never been characterised scientifically before.

Pioneering research by the University of Valencia and the CSIC uses bacteria viruses against Xylella fastidiosa in the Balearic Islands Pilar Domingo-Calap, researcher at the Institute of Integrative Systems Biology (I2SysBio), a joint centre of the University of Valencia (UV) and the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC), directs research with phages (bacterial viruses) that has started treating crop plants affected by the bacteria Xylella fastidiosa in the Balearic Islands.
Researchers from the Autonomous University of Madrid (UAM) and CSIC have studied the effect of lamivudine, a drug used in the treatment of HIV, in a transgenic model of Alzheimer's disease. The results, published in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences , suggest that retranscriptase inhibitors may be a promising strategy to be developed in the field of neurodegenerative diseases.

Toddlers learn to reason logically before they learn to speak, according to a study by UPF
19-month-old toddlers already use natural logical thinking, even before they learn to speak, to deal with uncertainties about the world. This natural logic contributes to their learning process, both in terms of language and in other fields of knowledge. This is one of the main conclusions of a study led by UPF's Center for Brain and Cognition, that has been published today in the journal Current Biology .

Astronomers from the Universitat de València captured the detailed image of the first radiation belt detected around a brown dwarf outside our solar system. The image, taken last January and now published in the Science journal, evokes the well-known belts of Earth and Jupiter, reveals a magnetic field ten times greater than that of the largest planet in the solar system, and unlocks new secrets of these ultracool substellar objects of very low mass and very powerful radiation.
An international research team led by the University of Valencia, in which the University of Cambridge and the Italian Ministry of Culture participate, has analysed for the first time the bones of the Pompeii Casts (the skeletons of its inhabitants in a plaster mould) with an innovative technique, x-ray fluorescence analysis, and concludes that they died of suffocation, not burned or dehydrated as other theories defend.
Deep learning method developed to understand how chronic pain affects each patient’s body
A research team from the Universidad Carlos III de Madrid (UC3M), together with University College London in the United Kingdom, has carried out a study to analyse how chronic pain affects each patient's body. Within this framework, a deep learning method has been developed to analyse the biometric data of people with chronic conditions.

An international research team lead by the University of Tübingen and the Brazilian University of São Paulo, with CIDEGENT researcher Domingo C. Salazar from the University of Valencia, compiled the largest genomic dataset from Brazil to demonstrate that sambaqui communities on the southern and southeastern coasts didn-t represent a genetically homogeneous population.
Another of the conclusions of the study, conducted with the collaboration of the University of Toronto, is that the lexical creativity of children (when they are learning to speak) and that of the speakers of a language (which explains the historical evolution of the meanings of words) follow shared patterns.
Analysing the gender gap in scientific production and performance indicators
Studying the "Matilda effect" in communication-related research 7/28/23 A study by the Universidad Carlos III de Madrid (UC3M) reveals the existing gender inequality in the exercise of research careers in communication. This work shows the difficulty female researchers currently have in achieving higher levels of visibility and citations.

Researchers from the University of Valencia show recent advances and research opportunities in causal inference for the Earth and environmental sciences. The new algorithms integrate causal reasoning using machine learning techniques. The objective is to improve the understanding, based on observational time series, and promise to advance science and engineering.
Researchers from the University of Valencia and the INCLIVA Health Research Institute (Valencia Clinical Hospital) have analysed the possible effects of the presence of cytomegalovirus (CMV) in the blood of patients receiving CAR-T therapies, a form of immunotherapy that has been shown to be effective in certain types of haematological cancer.
An international study published in Nature, a scientific journal in collaboration with UV researchers, confirms the threat of plastic waste and microplastic contamination to humans and aquatic life. Up till now, the majority of research in this area has been centred on the world's oceans, yet this study reveals the presence of plastic pollutants in lakes and reservoirs, beyond large urban or highly human-transformed areas.
