A new study published by researchers at the University at Albany has presented the first documented evidence that Adirondack surface waters made a near full recovery from metal pollution since the enactment of the Clean Air Act.
A new study shows that planets bigger than Earth and smaller than Neptune are common outside the Solar System. The same international team including astronomers from the Center for Astrophysics | Harvard & Smithsonian (CfA) has also announced the discovery of a planet about twice the size of Earth orbiting its star farther out than Saturn is to the Sun. These results are another example of how planetary systems can be different from our Solar System.
A new study, published in BMC Nutrition, demonstrates that providing medically tailored meals (MTM) to patients with heart failure (HF) and malnutrition risk following hospital discharge significantly improves their nutritional status and keeps hospital readmission rates well below local and national averages.
Since the first recorded case of highly pathogenic avian influenza H5N1 鈥 commonly known as avian flu or bird flu 鈥 in 1996, Ian Wilson, professor of structural biology at Scripps Research, and his colleagues have been closely tracking the evolution of several key proteins using SSRL.
Recently, Wilson鈥檚 team investigated the evolution of a protein that plays a crucial role in H5N1鈥檚 ability to transmit between species. Their analysis found that the protein is susceptible to a mutation that could help the virus attach to human cells, potentially increasing the risk of human transmission. The findings 鈥 published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences 鈥 underscore the need for ongoing monitoring of H5N1鈥檚 evolution.
Pascack Valley Medical Center announces the launch of its New Moms Support Circle, a welcoming support group designed specifically for new moms. This initiative aims to provide a safe and nurturing environment where new mothers can connect, share experiences, and build lasting friendships.
A simple consultation during unrelated visits to the emergency room can help patients with high blood pressure 鈥 鈥渢he silent killer鈥 鈥 manage the condition, even before they experience symptoms, according to new research from the University of Illinois Chicago.
It is becoming harder and harder to ignore the environmental costs of textiles, and demand is still growing by leaps and bounds each year. Textile recycling has vexed researchers and th
INDIANAPOLIS 鈥 Indiana University School of Medicine scientists have developed a new imaging technique to study bone marrow in mouse models. This advancement could support future drug development and therapies for conditions involving bone marrow, including cancers, autoimmune diseases and musculoskeletal disorders.
Decades of research leads to self-contained solar panels that convert CO2 into C2 products, valuable precursory chemicals of innumerable products in our everyday lives, from plastic polymers to jet fuel.
