Alzheimer's disease (AD), characterized by β-amyloid plaques, is increasingly recognized by lipid dysregulation as a key factor in its pathology. Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI), a powerful tool for mapping the spatial distribution of biomolecules in tissue sections, is ideally suited for investigating region-specific molecular alterations in diseased animal tissues.

Ahhh, what’s summer without the scent of meat sizzling on the grill, tables with bowls of fruit and veggie trays, and food safety reminders to help us avoid bacteria like salmonella? Undercooked meats and unwashed veggies are common culprits, but insects like cockroaches can also transmit salmonella through contact with food or preparation surfaces.

Although bird flu, or H5N1 influenza, had been primarily limited to wild migratory birds and sporadic outbreaks in commercial poultry operations, it was detected in US dairy cows in March 2024. Since then, H5N1 has spread rapidly in dairy cattle across multiple states and the industry has limited tools to protect their herds. Together, the Foundation for Food & Agriculture Research (FFAR) and Purdue University are investing $301,562 into a Rapid Outcomes from Agricultural Research (ROAR) grant to develop an H5N1 vaccine for dairy cows, according to a press release issued by FFAR.

Living organisms are frequently used as sentinels to monitor changes in the environment, and organoids can serve a similar function as in vitro sentinels detecting microbiological processes. One such process of great interest is pathogenic infection, which causes alterations in the cellular dynamics of the sentinels.
