Medical Xpress / Rejuvenating neurons restores learning and memory in mice
Age-related memory decline and neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's are often thought of as irreversible. But the brain is not static; neurons continually adjust the strength of their connections, a property called ...
Phys.org / New study assesses potential dust control options for Great Salt Lake
A new collaborative study, led by University of Utah Professor of atmospheric sciences Kevin Perry, provides policymakers, agency leaders, and the public with the most comprehensive assessment to date of potential dust control ...
Medical Xpress / How blood biomarkers can predict trauma patient recovery days in advance
Researchers at the University of Colorado Anschutz have developed a way to predict how trauma patients will recover, days before complications come to fruition, by analyzing the molecules in their blood. In their study published ...
Phys.org / From fins to fingers: How nature 'redeployed' ancient genes to shape limbs
How did the complexity of many organisms living today evolve from the simpler body plans of their ancestors? This is a central question in biology. Take our hands, for example: Every time we type a message on our mobile phone, ...
Tech Xplore / Ultrafast nanolasers mimic how the brain imagines unseen parts of the world
A new study has demonstrated how networks of spiking nanolasers could emulate a key principle of brain function: to imagine things that we cannot directly perceive by sampling from internal models of the world. The study, ...
Phys.org / Study finds climate change set the stage for devastating wildfires in Argentina and Chile
Human-caused climate change had an important impact on the recent ferocious wildfires that engulfed parts of Chile and Argentina's Patagonia region, making the extremely high-risk conditions that led to widespread burning ...
