A team of scientists has brought together more than forty existing brain maps in one place. The database, called neuromaps, will help scientists find correlations between patterns across different brain regions, spatial scales, modalities and brain fun…
New technology could make a significant difference in the fight against climate change by affordably converting harmful carbon dioxide (CO2) into fuels and other valuable chemicals on an industrial scale.
A large study of COVID-19 disease following vaccination and booster reports surprisingly low incidence, especially in individuals younger than 65 years of age with no high-risk conditions.
Researchers have found considerable variations in per-capita spending on long-term care across Japan’s municipalities. They identified the drivers of regional variation in per-capita spending on long-term care using regression analysis. Demand-related …
Low concentrations of cetylpyridinium chloride, an antimicrobial agent present in mouthwashes, inhibit the infectivity of four variants of SARS-CoV-2, according to a recent study.
Scientists have developed a low-cost device that can harness energy from wind as gentle as a light breeze and store it as electricity.
The wear and tear on the body from chronic and lifelong stress can also lead to an increased risk of dying from cancer, researchers report.
One year after mass vaccination against COVID-19 was launched, inactivated virus vaccines accounted for half of the doses administered worldwide. Now, a large observational study performed in Brazil shows that, in people who initially received two dose…
The cerebellum is known primarily for the regulation of movement. Researchers have now discovered that the cerebellum also plays an important role in remembering emotional experiences.
People with psychotic disorders such as schizophrenia are 2.5 times more likely than those without a psychotic disorder to eventually develop dementia, according to a new review.
Some estimates of Antarctica’s total contribution to sea-level rise may be over- or underestimated, after researchers detected a previously unknown source of ice loss variability. The researchers identified distinct, seasonal movements in the flow of l…
When people believe that a door is closing — that they have a limited amount of time left to enjoy something, such as dining out or traveling — they gravitate to the comfort of something familiar rather than the excitement of something new.
Referrals to Cambridge’s long COVID clinic fell dramatically in the period August 2021 to June 2022, which researchers say is likely due to the successful rollout of the vaccine.
