Although Achromatium oxaliferum has been known for over a century, its physiology and genetic features remain largely unknown.
It is a constant ‘aha’ effect: when the light is switched on in a dark room, color vision sets in. “This not only makes the world more colorful,” says Dr. Wolf…
UCLA biologists have developed an intervention that serves as a cellular time machine — turning back the clock on a key component of aging.
“Established and young researchers will present and discuss work on all aspects of genome biology, ranging from microbial genomes and genome evolution to…
Commercially available lithium-ion batteries consist of two electrodes connected by a liquid electrolyte. This electrolyte makes it difficult for engineers to…
The discovery of boron on Mars gives scientists more clues about whether life could have ever existed on the planet, according to a paper published today in…
A pulsar is the core of a massive star that exploded as a supernova. In this stellar remnant, also called a neutron star, the equivalent mass of half a million…
For about one hundred years it has been known that nutrient restriction and moderate stress can significantly prolong life. The researchers led by Prof….
Ultrashort pulse lasers generate light pulses in the megawatt range and a with pulse duration in the range of pico and femtoseconds. They are the ideal…
If you think you can use the solar panels on your roof to power your home during an outage, think again. During an outage, while your home remains connected to…
Water has many ice phases that form under different pressure and temperature conditions. The effects of positive pressure have been explored extensively, with…
Research published in 2014 first showed the cooling capabilities of the optical surface on its own. Now, Fan and former research associates Aaswath Raman and…
For all but a small region immediately north of Cape Hatteras at the southern edge of their study area, the researchers confirmed that surface water…
NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory, which watches the sun constantly, captured an image of the event.
The personality of a researcher can play an important part in his or her decision to share research data. This is the result of a national, interdisciplinary…
Reproducing experiments and results is a cornerstone of science, but researchers acknowledge that actually achieving this feat can be tricky. Specific…
