When a woman is diagnosed with the earliest stage of breast cancer, how aggressive should her treatment be? Will the non-invasive cancer become invasive? Or is…
Could a tail have allowed ancient vertebrates to make the transition from water to land?
Stomach MRI images combined with functional fMRI of the brain activity have provided scientists new insight into how the brain listens to the stomach during…
A team of Korean scientists-made up of scientists from Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST) and UNIST has recently found a way to make building…
The past few years have shown that not every patient reacts the same way to a treatment. Therefore, medical research is aiming to develop a personalised and…
Besides mushrooms such as truffles or morels, also many yeast and mould fungi, as well as other filamentous fungi belong to the Ascomycota phylum. They produce…
An electron microscope can’t just snap a photo like a mobile phone camera can. The ability of an electron microscope to image a structure – and how successful…
Researchers have demonstrated how to control the “electron spin” of a nanodiamond while it is levitated with lasers in a vacuum, an advance that could find…
The research, published online this week in the journal Science, was conducted by a team at Princeton University in collaboration with researchers at the…
They may be slimy, but they are a perfect environment for microorganisms: biofilms. Protected against external influences, here bacteria can grow undisturbed,…
It is known that some swifts, songbirds, sandpipers, and seabirds fly non-stop for several days, weeks, or months as they traverse the globe. Given the adverse…
The research partners have succeeded in mapping out for the first time a complete production and treatment process, from using biotechnology to produce…
In the past few years, optical atomic clocks have made spectacular progress, becoming 100 times more precise than the best caesium clocks. So far, their…
Liquid methane-filled canyons hundreds of meters deep with walls as steep as ski slopes etch the surface of Titan, researchers report in a new study. The new…
Venus may have had a shallow liquid-water ocean and habitable surface temperatures for up to 2 billion years of its early history, according to computer…
