University of Utah atmospheric scientists show proposed "geoengineering" effort to remove methane, a potent greenhouse gas, from the atmosphere could worse air quality while providing minimal climate benefits.
Neuroscientists at Washington University in St. Louis have set up computer frameworks that can help model individual brain dynamics.
By editing the polymers of discarded plastics, chemists at the Department of Energy鈥檚 Oak Ridge National Laboratory have found a way to generate new macromolecules with more valuable properties than those of the starting material.
Nonprofits that provide legal services for immigrants ended up receiving increases in public contributions in the wake of Trump's attacks on immigrants, demonstrating a backlash effect that's sometimes called 鈥渞age giving.鈥�
Long classified as a subset of common liver cancer, FLC should be considered its own unique disease. Now researchers are testing a combination drug therapy that targets FLC tumors.
Strong self-regulation skills can potentially buoy a strong sense of purpose, according to researchers at Washington University in St. Louis.
The January 2025 issue of AJG focuses on inflammation with articles and reviews across a broad array of digestive diseases, including an updated ACG Clinical Guideline on EoE.
New studies have found that using louvers at the bottom of a fusion device creates local conditions that can reduce the temperature of the edge plasma, ensuring the plasma is not hot enough to damage the device. Specifically, the louvers allow the hot plasma to 鈥渄etach鈥� from the walls of the device, spreading out the heat. The work, on the SPARC machine, aids in progress toward fusion energy production.
FAU neuroscientists have identified that the receptor IL-1R1 plays a critical role in enabling neurons to directly communicate with the immune system. The new study provides the most detailed mapping of neuronal IL-1R1 (nIL-1R1) expression in the mouse brain, clarifying prior inconsistencies. Researchers were able to tag neuronal populations that express nIL-1R1 using a clever cell tagging approach, offering new insights into the functional roles of this receptor in the central nervous system (CNS).
UMD finance professor Russell Wermers introduces the Holding Horizon (H-H) measure, linking mutual fund managers' long-term stock holdings to superior risk-adjusted returns. The corresponding research offers insights for individual investors and retirement plans.
Our sun is essentially a searing hot sphere of gas. Its mix of primarily hydrogen and helium can reach temperatures between 10,000 and 3.6 million degrees Fahrenheit on its surface and its atmosphere鈥檚 outermost layer. Because of that heat, the blazing orb constantly oozes a stream of plasma, made up of charged subatomic particles 鈥� mainly protons and electrons.
Children鈥檚 Hospital Los Angeles researcher Anna Cushing, MD, collaborated on a study that found U.S. hospitals closed a third of their pediatric inpatient units between 2008 and 2022. The study is a follow-up to Dr. Cushing鈥檚 prior lead author publication which evaluated pediatric inpatient availability from 2008 and 2018.聽鈥淢ost emergency department visits for children occur in general hospitals, which have been increasingly transferring children to large pediatric centers for inpatient care,鈥� says Dr.
Children who participate in structured physical activity right through adolescence are more likely to stay in school and earn a high-school diploma or equivalent, a new study suggests.
Co-edited by professor Jean Grondin, the correspondence between Martin Heidegger and his student Hans-Georg Gadamer offers unprecedented insights into their personal and intellectual relationship.
A new study led by WashU Medicine researchers has found older-looking brains in adults with sickle cell disease, helping to explain the cognitive challenges experienced by such individuals. A brain image from a healthy individual shows a larger brain with more white matter compared with a brain image from a patient with sickle cell disease. Healthy individuals experiencing economic deprivation also had more-aged appearing brains.
A recent discovery has unlocked the genetic secrets behind butterhead lettuce鈥檚 signature compact structure, a development that could revolutionize crop breeding and agricultural sustainability. Scientists have identified two critical genes, LsKIPK and LsATPase, whose mutations are responsible for the plant鈥檚 distinctive architecture.
New research from Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) provides a clearer understanding of glioblastoma heterogeneity to aid development of new therapies; sheds light on mechanisms of cellular plasticity; presents a new imaging technique that could improve the diagnosis of brain diseases by revealing how different parts of the brain are metabolizing nutrients; describes a new method to aid the study of rare but influential cell populations; and identifies a potential treatment for malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors.

A new study from McMaster University, in collaboration with community partners and researchers from Duke University, Oxford University, and Mahidol University, shows that screenings of a locally-produced narrative film about parenting led to a significant reduction in physical violence against children.
In a study that could transform agricultural pest management, researchers have uncovered the robust insect resistance mechanisms of Solanum habrochaites, a wild tomato species. By unraveling the genetic and metabolic intricacies of the phenylpropanoid biosynthesis pathway, the study opens new avenues for breeding cultivated tomatoes with enhanced pest resistance. The findings hold the potential to reduce dependency on chemical pesticides, addressing mounting concerns over pesticide resistance and environmental harm.
In the age of rapid advancements in omics technologies, the challenge of visualizing diverse and complex biological datasets has reached a critical point. Enter DataColor, a revolutionary software solution designed to illuminate hidden insights within these intricate datasets.
