A new a quantum-enabled gas imaging camera will help dramatically cut environmentally damaging methane leaks from the oil and gas industry.

The way in which the brain's wiring aligns with patterns of activity may vary with age, sex, and genetics. The alignments may have implications on cognition, researchers report.

Regenerating natural systems will draw carbon out of the atmosphere and help tackle climate change. We must recarbonise Earth now, says Jonathon Porritt

A de novo mutation of SOS1, a gene implicated in Noonan syndrome, may be implicated in sudden infant death, researchers report.

Combining artificial intelligence technology with raw data from brain activity, researchers accelerate the understanding of how neural activity impacts specific behaviors.

Amyloid-beta accumulates in nerve cells and spreads, from cell to cell, via nerve fibers. This process occurs prior to the formation of amyloid plaques in the brain.

Researchers have developed a new, flexible and steerable catheter that allows surgeons to guide the device in any direction while traversing the brain's arteries and blood vessels.

Researchers have successfully replicated an entire, viable glioblastoma brain tumor via 3D bioprinting. The bioprinted tumor includes a complex system of blood vessel-like tubes through which blood cells and drug molecul...

Study identifies the main components driving amyloid beta-associated synaptic degeneration.

Substituting 10% of daily caloric intake from processed and red meats with legumes, nuts, and seafood can reduce your dietary carbon footprint by one-third, and add 48 "healthy minutes" to your daily life.

Studying red junglefowl chicks, researchers conclude impulsivity is linked to both gene expression and early life experiences.

People influence the construction of past events on three processing levels, and that occurs unconsciously and automatically.

A major crisis that accompanied the rise of the pandemic was lack of availability of the nasopharyngeal swab -- necessary for testing for COVID-19, which in turn, was necessary to get a grip on the pandemic. An account o...

Neurobiologists have uncovered the long-sought-after mechanisms behind the maintenance and decline of key synapses implicated in brain disorders such as Alzheimer's disease. The researchers identified the main components...

The 3D print of glioblastoma -- the deadliest type of brain cancer -- is printed from human glioblastoma tissues containing all components of the malignant tumor. Researchers say the breakthrough will enable much faster ...

Researchers have developed a new strategy that could offer much more precise control of prosthetic limbs. After inserting small magnetic beads into muscle tissue, they can accurately measure the length of a muscle as it ...

Researchers identified the mechanisms in which neuro-immune processes trigger brain signals to instruct immune functions in visceral fat stores. The findings could pave the way for new treatments for obesity.

An international study led by the University of Bonn has found evidence of a long-sought effect in accelerator data. The so-called "triangle singularity" describes how particles can change their identities by exchanging ...

As wildfire fronts advance through landscapes or communities on the ground, they also attack from above, launching volleys of glowing embers into the air. Also known as firebrands, these specks of burning debris can glid...

Giant anteaters rely on forests to help them stay cool - so where trees grow sparsely, the animals are forced to roam further

A stomach implant delivers insulin that can be refilled through capsules that are swallowed. If the device is approved for use in humans, it could revolutionise the treatment of type 1 diabetes

The international treaty to protect the ozone layer has had the inadvertent benefit of protecting plants and avoiding up to 1°C of future climate change this century, almost as much as the world has warmed to date.
