For years, there has been a long-held belief that acute viral infections like Zika or COVID-19 are directly responsible for neurological damage, but researchers from McMaster University have now discovered that it’s the immune system’s response that is behind it.
A team of scientists led by Berkeley Lab has developed a new model that incorporates genetic information from microbes.
Do climate change deniers bend the facts to avoid having to modify their environmentally harmful behavior? Researchers from the University of Bonn and the Institute of Labor Economics (IZA) ran an online experiment involving 4,000 US adults, and found no evidence to support this idea.
Some immune cells in our bodies see their ‘killer instinct’ restricted after entering solid tumours, according to new research.
ORNL climate modeling expertise contributed to a project that assessed global emissions of ammonia from croplands now and in a warmer future, while also identifying solutions tuned to local growing conditions.
Climate change poses a threat to yields and food security worldwide, with plant diseases as one of the main risks.
Researchers from Chalmers University of Technology, in Sweden, have discovered a change in what scientists already knew about global warming dynamics.
Mangroves and saltmarshes sequester large amounts of carbon, mitigating the greenhouse effect.
Plants are continuously evolving new immune receptors to ever-changing pathogens.
Fighting disease-causing bacteria becomes more difficult when antibiotics stop working.
Investigators in the Department of Computational Biomedicine at Cedars-Sinai wanted to find out which factors influenced susceptibility to COVID-19 infection and disease severity the most. Was it genetics? Or was it home environment, meaning the germs circulating throughout your everyday life?
Researchers from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have developed a transmissive thin scintillator using perovskite nanocrystals, designed for real-time tracking and counting of single protons.
Protein molecules lie at the heart of biology. Our typical understanding of proteins states that each type of protein has a specific three-dimensional shape that enables it to perform its function.
In the several decades since sea otters began to recolonize their former habitat in Elkhorn Slough, a salt marsh-dominated coastal estuary in central California, remarkable changes have occurred in the landscape.
Researchers from the Oxford Martin Programme on the Future of Plastics, University of Oxford, have outlined ambitious targets to help deliver a sustainable and net zero plastic economy.
A new type of E. coli that is both highly infectious and resistant to some antibiotics has been discovered.
Brain function depends on the swift movement of electrical signals along axons, the long extensions of nerve cells that connect billions of brain cells.
Traditional genome editing faced limitations in achieving ultimate precision until now. Prof. Buchholz's team has broken through this barrier by creating what many have sought after: a zinc-finger conditioned recombinase.
Researchers at the University of Copenhagen have concluded that the methane uptake in dry landscapes exceeds methane emissions from wet areas across the ice-free part of Greenland.
Gliomas de alto grau são tumores cancerígenos que se espalham rapidamente no cérebro ou na medula espinhal.
