WashU Expert: How to navigate conflicting childhood vaccine guidance

A new federal directive on childhood vaccines is putting federal policy at odds with leading medical organizations. President Donald Trump’s Aug. 10 executive order calls for reducing the number of vaccines routinely recommended for all children, separating the measles, mumps and rubella vaccine into individual shots and, when possible, spacing childhood vaccines across separate medical visits. Ma

‘Buy now, pay later’ may reshape retail prices, inventory, WashU research finds

“Buy now, pay later” plans — which allow consumers to split purchases into a handful of interest-free installments — have become a common way for Americans to pay for everything from furniture to groceries. New research from Olin Business School at Washington University in St. Louis suggests the increasingly popular payment option can have consequences beyond the checkout screen — influencing reta

A painless punch with a microneedle patch could detect kidney disease earlier

Kidney disease is silent in its early stages, progressing without symptoms until the disease is advanced. Researchers in the McKelvey School of Engineering at Washington University in St. Louis, in collaboration with researchers at WashU Medicine and at Texas A&M University, have been developing a minimally invasive method to improve diagnosis in earlier stages. New research from the lab of Srikan

Some assembly required, with machine learning

Machine learning doesn’t replace human intelligence, but it can outlast human endurance, which makes it a very helpful tool for chemistry and material discovery. Scientists know the machine learning models can make predictions based on the vast reams of data it is trained on, but can it take it a step further and massively scale up testing out those predictions? “We already see that AI is powerful
