The types of glass that we encounter in everyday life, such as window glass or smartphone screens, are disordered solids. This means that they consist of particles locked in place, like those in solids, but arranged randomly, ...

The warming El Niño weather phenomenon could form later this year, potentially pushing global temperatures to record heights.

Artificial intelligence (AI) systems are computational models that can learn to identify patterns in data, make accurate predictions or generate content (e.g., texts, images, videos or sound recordings). These models can ...

New geological data indicate that marine life is somewhat resilient to warming in the tropics. Chris Fokkema, Earth scientist at Utrecht University, discovered that tropical algae were largely unaffected by a number of periods ...

A smooth, white stone dating from the Roman era and unearthed in the Netherlands has long baffled researchers.

Animals of the same species don't always look the same. From birds with different beak shapes to mammals that vary in size or color, populations living in different places can often look very different.

When we hear about moving objects with electricity, most of us imagine a "pulling force." Positive and negative charges attract each other, drawing objects together. It is natural to think that this attractive force—known ...

Twenty years. That's how long Robert Oman has been cancer-free, thanks to a clinical trial offered at the University of Rochester's Wilmot Cancer Institute. And he isn't alone: 70% of patients in the trial who had advanced-stage ...

There have been plenty of attempts to resolve the "Hubble Tension" in cosmology. This feature describes how one of the most important variables in cosmology, the expansion of the universe, takes on different values depending ...

A new study is the first to suggest realistic ways to integrate wisdom into artificial intelligence, to create AI systems that will be more robust, transparent, cooperative, and safe. Researchers from the University of Waterloo ...

Researchers from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have developed CellScope, a high-performance single-cell analysis framework that uses manifold fitting to analyze single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data. This ...

Most countries will not achieve climate neutrality through greenhouse gas emission reductions alone; carbon sinks are also needed to offset unavoidable emissions. Researchers are discussing technical solutions, such as applying ...
