A new study led by UT Southwestern scientists suggests that such RNA-driven "phase separation," in turn, protects against genome instability, premature aging, and neurodegenerative diseases, and may represent a prev...
COVID-19 Infections in U.S. Nearly 3X Greater Than Reported, University Model Estimates February 12, 2021 World health experts have long suspected that the incidence of COVID-19 has been higher than reported. Now, a machine-learning algorithm developed at University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center estimates that the number of COVID-19 cases in the U.S. since the pandemic began is nearly three times that of confirmed cases. The algorithm, described in a study published in PLOS ONE, provides daily updated estimates of total infections to date as well as ...
