The launch of AlliumDB, a state-of-the-art genomic database for Allium species, marks a turning point in agricultural science. By unifying vast genomic, transcriptomic, and phenotypic data, this innovative platform offers researchers an unprecedented opportunity to decipher genetic traits, paving the way for advances in breeding strategies for staple crops like onions and garlic.
A new study led by Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI), published in The ISME Journal, sheds light on how a species of foraminifera, single-celled organisms found in almost all marine habitats, thrives in a dark, oxygen-free environment.
NCCN鈥攁n alliance of leading cancer centers鈥攑ublishes a new resource to inform people about the latest recommendations around hereditary and familial cancer risk.
A new study has revealed the alarming extent glaciers have shrunk over the past 40 years in a global warming hotspot for the first time 鈥� and the biggest retreat has occurred in recent years.
The robotics industry should be creating robots that could be reprogrammed and repurposed for other tasks once its life span is completed, University of Bristol and University of West England researchers have advised.
In an interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary study, an international team led by the University of Vienna and the Danish Technical University/Umea University examined the social risks for Arctic regions associated with thawing permafrost. They identified five key risks related to infrastructure, transport and supply, water quality, food security and health. The scientists found that the thawing permafrost posed an increased risk of exposure to infectious diseases and release of contaminants, and interruptions of supply routes. The study has been published in the renowned journal Communications Earth and Environment.
A new automated job hazard analysis tool developed by Australian researchers promises to significantly reduce workplace accidents and improve safety in the high-risk construction industry, where 60,000 workers are killed each year.
Two new studies led by researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis have identified a possible way to block the progression of several forms of blood cancer using a drug already in clinical trials against breast cancer.
Young people continue to face a series of structural and informational barriers to voting, but many youth were also disinterested in the election or dissatisfied with the candidates on the ballot, according to a new poll conducted by the Center for Information & Research on Civic Learning and Engagement (CIRCLE) at Tufts University鈥檚 Tisch College of Civic Life.
AIP is launching its first annual research agenda as part of a new strategy to explore pressing topics at the nexus of history, policy, and culture. The Institute鈥檚 2025 agenda is the result of a monthslong engagement with stakeholders, including AIP鈥檚 10 Member Societies, and throughout the year, AIP鈥檚 expert social scientists, historians, librarians, policy analysts, and archivists will work on projects to identify issues where social science, policy analysis, and historical research could provide useful context as the physical sciences community seeks to engage in positive change in how our science is done and by whom.
Lanthanum strontium manganite (LSMO) is a quantum material that is magnetic and conducts electricity at low temperature but is nonmagnetic and an insulator at room temperature. Researchers discovered that applying voltage to LSMO in its magnetic phase causes the material to split into regions with distinct magnetic properties whose properties depend on the applied voltage. This means that both resistance and magnetism can be tuned in LSMO, creating a new path toward neuromorphic devices.
As the United States prepares for the presidential inauguration on Monday, Jan. 20, speculation grows on which domestic and international policies will go into effect.One of the most discussed issues on America鈥檚 economic forefront is the levying of tariffs. The tax on imported goods is debated by many economists on what its true impact is on the U.
Mutations in a gene called OTP cause obesity by controlling the output of another gene already targeted by an anti-obesity drug, a study led by UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers shows. The findings, reported in Science Translational Medicine, could lead to new treatments for some types of obesity, a growing health problem that currently affects more than a billion people worldwide.
A new study that identified 475 patients with post-acute sequelae of Covid-19 (PASC), or Long Covid, revealed that nearly 85 percent (403) of these patients had multiple Covid-19 infections over the course of a four-year period.
A new twist on a decades-old anticancer strategy has shown powerful effects against multiple cancer types in a preclinical study from researchers in the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania.
Many physicians are now using algorithms that consider a patient鈥檚 sex, like heart disease risk assessment tools, to help with clinical decision-making. Reliance on these algorithms may result in men and women receiving different care or having different eligibility for healthcare resources, for example placement on an organ transplant list.
Large and rare duplications and deletions in a chromosome region known as 22q11.2 , which involves genes that regulate cardiac development, are linked to nonsyndromic bicuspid aortic valve disease, according to a new study led by UTHealth Houston researchers.
The FDA ban on Red Dye 3, cancer survivorship and what it means to live with cancer, global trends in lung cancer deaths, gynecologic disparities in women of African ancestry and more are included in this month's tip sheet from Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center.
Scientists have revealed the secret to the structural integrity of tiny particles that transport cargo from cell to cell through blood vessels and bodily fluids: special proteins that keep their membranes intact as they negotiate shifting electrical impulses in different biological environments.
