She arrived in Miami at 17, still figuring out where science could take her. Now a fifth-year Ph.D. candidate working in the Diabetes Research Institute, Isabella Altilio Bove focuses on Type 1 diabetes and the loss of insulin-producing beta cells. In Dr. Juan Domínguez-Bendala’s lab, her work contributes to a deeper understanding of the disease and a path toward future therapies. Learn more: https://loom.ly/gOFYZxU

New research is taking a closer look at the mental health impact of Peyronie’s disease, exploring whether treating the physical condition can also ease depression, anxiety and quality of life challenges that often go unaddressed. Led by Dr. Manuel Molina, the study follows patients already receiving FDA-approved treatment to better understand how recovery may extend beyond the physical.

By pairing clinical care with deeper insight into patient experience, this work aims to reduce stigma and support a more complete approach to men’s health, where both physical and emotional well-being are part of the conversation.

The MIL Agentic Data Scientist platform helps turn complex data into real progress faster, guiding everything from study design to analysis and how findings connect to patient care and population health. 🤖

First introduced through the PRIME Bootcamp, the platform is already being used by early career scientists across the country, making advanced data work more approachable while also helping experienced investigators move through complex datasets more efficiently.

Led by Dr. Azizi Seixas, this work is focused on giving researchers the tools and support to move their ideas forward and see the impact sooner. Learn more: https://loom.ly/TudrrcA

Long-term lifestyle habits, including physical activity, diet and social connection, may play a powerful role in protecting brain health as we age. By tracking behaviors across decades, researchers found that those who maintained or improved healthy habits since early adulthood demonstrated stronger cognition and greater brain resilience later in life. 🧠

Led by the Comprehensive Center for Brain Health, this work not only advances research, but also informs how patients are evaluated and supported in clinical settings, connecting discovery directly to care.

Our researchers are advancing a new deep brain stimulation approach that shows early promise in restoring mobility for patients with Parkinson’s disease and, potentially, spinal cord injuries. By targeting a brain region directly to movement, the team is helping participants in a pilot study improve their ability to walk. Already, participants are experiencing longer strides, faster turns and reduced freezing. 🧠🚶
