Artificial intelligence predicts kidney cancer therapy response: Newsroom - UT Southwestern, Dallas, Texas
https://www.utsouthwestern.edu/newsroom/articles/year-2025/april-ai-kidney-cancer-therapy.html
An artificial intelligence (AI)-based model developed by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers can accurately predict which kidney cancer patients will benefit from anti-angiogenic therapy, a class of treatments that’s only effective in some cases.
AI chatbots are mostly correct, but incomplete, on endometriosis: Newsroom - UT Southwestern, Dallas, Texas

RNA molecular pathway steers stem cells to aid kidney development: Newsroom - UT Southwestern, Dallas, Texas
https://www.utsouthwestern.edu/newsroom/articles/year-2025/june-rna-molecular-pathway.html
UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers have discovered an RNA pathway that appears to push stem cells to form nephrons, the functional units of kidneys. Their findings, published in Nature Communications, could lead to therapies that increase the number of nephrons in individuals at risk of
Researchers create ‘wiring diagram’ for key songbird brain region: Newsroom - UT Southwestern, Dallas, Texas
https://www.utsouthwestern.edu/newsroom/articles/year-2025/april-wiring-diagram-songbird.html
Much like human beings, songbirds learn how to vocalize from their parents. Males imitate songs from their fathers and then sing to attract mates. Although the circuits that generate human speech are more complicated to decipher, the brains of songbirds offer a viable model for better understanding
Neonatal diabetes model provides insights on how condition develops: Newsroom - UT Southwestern, Dallas, Texas
https://www.utsouthwestern.edu/newsroom/articles/year-2025/april-neonatal-diabetes-model.html
A preclinical model developed at UT Southwestern Medical Center that recapitulates a rare infant-onset form of diabetes suggests the condition stems from gradual damage to the pancreas through misregulation of a molecular pathway called the unfolded protein response (UPR).
Upper urinary tract cancer drug may offer long-term benefits: Newsroom - UT Southwestern, Dallas, Texas
https://www.utsouthwestern.edu/newsroom/articles/year-2025/march-urinary-cancer-drug.html
While randomized comparative trials are needed, a relatively new treatment option for upper urinary tract cancers shows promise for lowering long-term recurrence in many patients with low-grade disease, according to a multicenter study led by researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center.
