Phys.org / Florida bloom toxins turn up in air, suggesting inhalation risk beyond shorelines
Research on Southwest Florida cyanobacterial blooms shows that the toxins they produce are aerosolized and potentially inhaled by people far from contaminated water bodies.
Phys.org / How virtual reality can transform behavioral science and enhance reproducibility
In a new paper published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, a team of 41 authors from around the globe argue that virtual reality has the potential to do the same for behavioral science and help solve ...
Phys.org / Nanoparticles could remove harmful immune molecules from blood
The immune system, the body's defense network against infections and injuries, can sometimes become too active. In these cases, it can produce too many immune mediators, fragments of genetic material or proteins that regulate ...
