This means that new brain networks were likely added in the course of evolution from primate ancestor to human. These findings, based on an analysis of…
Identifying the mysterious mechanism underlying high-temperature superconductivity (HTS) remains one of the most important and tantalizing puzzles in physics. This remarkable phenomenon allows electric current to pass with perfect efficiency through materials chilled to subzero temperatures, and it may play an essential role in revolutionizing the entire electricity chain, from generation to transmission and grid-scale storage. …
The research found that cells called early lymphoid progenitors, which are responsible for producing T cells and B cells, thrive in an environment known as an…
This is particularly important for people with a smaller-than-average hippocampus, as these individuals seem to be particularly vulnerable to stress.These are…
Stem cells in the blood are the precursors to infection-fighting white blood cells and oxygen-carrying red blood cells.The research, by a team at Washington…
Proteins are essential building blocks of biology, used in muscle, brain, blood and hormones. If the genes are the blueprints, the proteins patterned on them…
Scientists at the Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL) have identified several genes linked to human neurological disorders, including Alzheimer's disease,…
Though still in its infancy, the research promises to convert sunlight into energy using a process based on metals that are more robust than many of the…
That is the conclusion of a new analysis published early online in CANCER, a peer-reviewed journal of the American Cancer Society. By providing a national…
ew research from the Children of the 90s study at the University of Bristol shows that most babies who are slow to put on weight in the first nine months of…
During an expedition to the South Pacific Ocean, scientists from the Max Planck Institute for Marine Microbiology in Bremen, along with their colleagues from…
The newly developed Simetal Merim process from Siemens boasts an energy recovery level 20-30 percent higher than that achieved by conventional dedusting…
