Researchers at the University of Michigan have identified changes in extratropical cyclones, the primary forces behind winter weather in the Great Lakes region. These storms are becoming warmer and moving northward, affecting the distribution and intensity of winter conditions. As a result, most areas in the Great Lakes region, except …
Researchers from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, along with collaborators from the University of South Florida, University of North Carolina, and The Neural Stem Cell Institute, have uncovered a key molecular mechanism in a brain signaling pathway. Their findings, published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society, detail how this pathway …
A recent study published in *Nature Communications* reveals that immune cells in the adult brain have a significant impact on neurogenesis, the process by which new neurons are generated. These immune cells not only monitor the brain environment but also communicate with developing neurons, influencing their growth and integration. The …
Scientists have made significant progress in locating a Soviet lunar lander that has been missing for decades. Using advanced telescopes and imaging technology, researchers have identified potential debris sites on the Moon’s surface that match the expected location of the spacecraft. This effort is part of ongoing attempts to map …
Cell therapy developers face increasing demands to speed up safety testing while maintaining high standards of quality and regulatory compliance. Traditional culture-based methods for detecting mycoplasma and sterility issues are often slow and labor-intensive. PCR-based testing offers a faster, more flexible alternative that can improve the efficiency of safety assessments …
Researchers have created a technique to prevent high-frequency radar systems from accurately detecting heart rate signals. These radar-based sensors, which can be integrated into everyday devices, have the capability to monitor physiological data such as heart rate, potentially allowing employers to track employee stress, engagement, and break times without consent. …
Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology have completed the largest direct numerical simulation (DNS) of three-dimensional turbulence to date, using 35 trillion grid points. This work was made possible by the Frontier supercomputer at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory, which offers exascale computing power capable of …
Bumble bees sometimes engage in nectar robbing, a behavior where they extract nectar without pollinating the flower. Research from Utah State University ecologist Valerie Martin highlights the role of yeast in shaping this behavior. The study explores how interactions between bees, plants, and microorganisms affect mutualistic relationships. Mutualism, a form …
Eddie Bauer’s retail operator has filed for bankruptcy following a period of declining sales. The brand has struggled to attract younger consumers, who often perceive it as outdated compared to competitors. Meanwhile, rival outdoor brands such as Sweden’s Fjallraven and Canada’s Arc’teryx have gained market share by appealing more effectively …
