Trillions of miles away from our planet, nuclear reactions inside exploding stars produce most of the naturally occurring elements in the universe. Here on Earth, Florida State University physicists at the John D. Fox Superconducting Accelerator Laboratory will replicate those reactions to better understand how they work and produce elements.
A team of researchers at the Florida Social Cognition and Emotion Lab recently received a grant from the National Science Foundation to investigate the factors that lead people to underestimate the meaningfulness of future life experiences
To meet the growing demands for cancer treatment in Tarrant County and surrounding areas, UT Southwestern Medical Center is expanding its cancer services in the Fort Worth Medical District with construction of a new two-story Radiation Oncology campus that will house the city’s first MRI-guided precision radiation treatment.
Copper is a promising catalyst for converting carbon dioxide into reduced species, a step in converting carbon dioxide into fuels. Although often initiated by electrical energy, this reaction can also be achieved using solar energy. In this work, scientists used X-rays to investigate how copper catalysts change when operating only with light and no applied electricity. The work found that the copper plays an unexpected role, producing an oxidized, not reduced, species.
Holiday celebrations are synonymous with families gathered around the dining table, laden with rich and festive dishes. The overabundance of tasty treats is a large part of most traditions, but it can feel overwhelming when you’re also trying to prioritize your health.
Since its days as the National Reactor Testing Station, Idaho National Laboratory (INL) has focused on proving that what people think can’t be done is in fact possible. In the past decade, the lab has repeatedly demonstrated to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and the nuclear industry that it can complete large, complicated nuclear projects on time and under budget.
Home for the holidays? Cal State Fullerton educator William Toledo, who prepares future teachers to guide possibly controversial conversations about politics in middle and high school classrooms, says the same tools used in classrooms can apply to holiday gatherings.
A study led by Università Cattolica at Rome and the Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Agostino Gemelli IRCCS in Rome, published in the prestigious journal PNAS, has revealed an important mechanism underlying Alzheimer and identified new therapeutic targets.
A new independent report reveals that medication management solutions like Ochsner Digital Medicine deliver superior hypertension outcomes and long-term cost savings compared to other digital approaches
By the time you read this—or any article about artificial intelligence—it’ll be out of date. AI is advancing that rapidly. And Hertz Fellow Dario Amodei, co-founder and CEO at Anthropic, is working to keep pace.
New research led by the University of Washington found that wildfire smoke is especially hazardous to people's memory health. An analysis of the health care records of 1.2 million Southern California residents found that higher long-term smoke exposure was associated with a significant increase in the odds that a person would be diagnosed with dementia.
Health care technology company athenahealth will provide free electronic health record service, which will improve care to the Rutgers Health clinic’s uninsured patients
The universe just got a whole lot bigger — or at least in the world of computer simulations, that is.In early November, researchers at the Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory used the fastest supercomputer on the planet to run the largest astrophysical simulation of the universe ever conducted.The achievement was made using the Frontier supercomputer at Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
A new mapping project led by the West University of Timișoara, Romania and the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign puts 427 crayfish taxa and over 100,000 observation records on the first searchable global atlas: World of Crayfish. The map will help protect vulnerable crayfish species and manage invasive ones worldwide.
Scientists are using artificial intelligence and powerful computing to sculpt new molecules in an effort to treat disease.
Lantidra is the only treatment currently approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of brittle type 1 diabetes.
NYU Tandon researchers have created a novel protein-based gel as a potential ingredient in sustainable and high-performance personal skincare products. This innovation could also streamline the creation of more eco-friendly skincare products, offering increased efficacy and durability while addressing market demands for ethically sourced ingredients.
