NIH and NSF jointly fund new research centers to better understand how ocean-related exposures affect people’s health. »
It is well known that meat dishes and fast food can have a high impact on biodiversity and sustainability. But recent scientific studies indicate that some vegetarian recipes popular in South Asia can also carry a surprisingly large biodiversity footprint. »
Competition between species played a major role in the rise and fall of hominins, and produced a “bizarre” evolutionary pattern for the Homo lineage. »
Dr. Katherine Bemis of the National Systematics Laboratory recently helped describe a new species of fish, the papillated redbait. »
An international team of scientists found a way to improve battery design that could produce safer, more powerful lithium batteries. »
Cotton gin waste, also known as cotton gin trash, is a byproduct of the cotton ginning process and occurs when the cotton fibers are separated from the seed boll. For cotton gin waste, the treasure is its hidden potential to transform silver ions into silver nanoparticles and create a new hybrid material that could be used to add antimicrobial properties to consumer products, like aerogels, packaging, or composites. »
Astronomers have identified the most massive stellar black hole yet discovered in the Milky Way galaxy. »
When astronomers looked at a stellar pair at the heart of a stunning cloud of gas and dust, they were in for a surprise. Star pairs are typically very similar, like twins, but in HD 148937, one star appears younger and, unlike the other, is magnetic. »
Cambridge researchers have identified genetic variants in two genes that have some of the largest impacts on obesity risk discovered to date. »
Researchers have shown that dangerous cysts, which form over time in polycystic kidney disease (PKD), can be prevented by a single normal copy of a defective gene. »
