Removing sheep and other livestock entirely from upland grasslands—a strategy often promoted as a way to boost carbon storage and tackle climate change—may actually reduce the most stable forms of soil carbon, according ...

In 2022, Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa returned to a game against the Buffalo Bills after sustaining a head injury that the NFL later acknowledged should have been classified as a concussion.

As humans age beyond early adulthood, their physical and mental functions tend to slowly worsen over time. One of the most common sources of severe mental decline in older adults are neurodegenerative diseases, conditions ...

Researchers from the Universidad de Valladolid in Spain, the Cardiff University Brain Research Imaging Center and University College London used brain imaging studies to uncover how psychotic experiences, such as brief hallucinations ...

Thermoelectric conversion devices offer a promising route for sustainable heat-to-energy conversion. They are particularly attractive for recovering energy from waste heat, such as that produced by conventional fossil fuel-based ...

Despite the prevalence of synthetic materials across different industries and scientific fields, most are developed to serve a limited set of functions. To address this inflexibility, researchers at Penn State, led by Hongtao ...

A recent study by a team of researchers led by TU Darmstadt has found that tiny amounts of liquid can navigate their way through unknown environments like living cells—without sensors, computers or external control. The ...

Two UT Southwestern Medical Center researchers have identified a protein that plays a key role in controlling the liver's release of cholesterol-carrying lipoproteins into the bloodstream, a discovery that could lead to new ...

A major step toward simpler drug development has been taken at the University of Gothenburg. In a new study, researchers have developed stable boron-fluorine compounds that make it possible to increase the effect or reduce ...

I still vividly remember the first time we observed neurons responding not to audible sound, but to concentrated, precisely calibrated ultrasonic pulses. On the screen in front of us, calcium signals from brain cells began ...

The mystery of dark matter—unseen, pervasive, and essential in standard cosmology—has loomed over physics for decades. In new research, I explore a different possibility: Rather than postulating new particles, I propose ...

Applied physicists in the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have demonstrated a new way to structure light in custom, repeatable, three-dimensional patterns, all without the use of ...
