• Scientists Use Organoid Model to Identify Potential New Pancreatic Cancer Treatment

  December 26, 2023

  A drug screening system that models cancers using lab-grown tissues called organoids has helped uncover a promising target for future pancreatic cancer treatments, according to a new study from researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine.

• Study Identifies Human Genes Enabling SARS-CoV-2 Infection

  March 13, 2023

  The activity of a gene called CIART is a key factor in the establishment of the viral infection that causes COVID-19.

• Are COVID-19-Linked Arrhythmias Caused by Viral Damage to the Heart’s Pacemaker Cells?

  April 1, 2022

  The SARS-CoV-2 virus can infect specialized pacemaker cells that maintain the heart’s rhythmic beat, setting off a self-destruction process within the cells, according to a preclinical study co-led by researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine, NewYork-Presbyterian and NYU Grossman School of Medicine.

• Study Reveals a Cause of Heart Damage in COVID-19 and Potential Treatments

  April 23, 2021

  The heart damage seen in many severely ill COVID-19 patients results in part from infection-activated immune cells called macrophages, which infiltrate the heart and secrete cell-damaging chemicals, according to a study co-led by researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine, NewYork-Presbyterian, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and Columbia University Irving Medical Center.

• Pluripotent Stem Cells Shed Light on How COVID-19 Infects the Pancreas and Liver and Its Relationship with Diabetes

  July 23, 2020

  The study of human pluripotent stem cells, which can develop into any cell type in the body, is providing Weill Cornell Medicine and NewYork-Presbyterian investigators with new insights into the virus that causes COVID-19 and how it may infect organs such as the pancreas and liver.
