Alien floras in regions that were once occupied by the same European power are, on average, more similar to each other compared to outside regions and this similarity increases with the length of time a region was occupied.
Pregnant smokers reduced their smoking by an average of one cigarette per day before becoming aware they were pregnant, reports a new study of more than 400 pregnant people. Then, in the month after learning of their pregnancy, participants reduced smo…
Engineers have introduced a holistic system that integrates sensing, storage and processing at the sensor’s edge to enable efficient and secure signal processing. Brain-inspired hardware minimizes power consumption for numerous applications requiring i…
Depression has long been associated with an increased risk of dementia, and now a new study provides evidence that timely treatment of depression could lower the risk of dementia in specific groups of patients.
Stumbling upon a new source of underwater caffeine was just an added bonus of a new study examining the impact of chemical compounds that corals release into the seawater.
A recent study reveals how undergraduate students engage with interdisciplinary learning throughout their college careers and beyond — and how universities should respond to support such learning.
For men and women, the risk factors for cardiovascular disease are largely the same, an extensive global study shows.
Research reports a combination of a novel small inhibitory molecule and an FDA-approved chemotherapy drug suppresses the growth of triple-negative breast cancer cells synergistically.
Women who used chemical hair straightening products were at higher risk for uterine cancer compared to women who did not report using these products, according to a new study. The researchers found no associations with uterine cancer for other hair pro…

In a new study, PNNL researchers find that the U.S. Atlantic Coast is becoming a breeding ground for rapidly intensifying hurricanes. Fueled by environmental conditions that beget increasingly severe storms–with climate change as a root contributor–t…
Researchers have developed a dynamic computational tool to help improve user access to electric vehicle (EV) charging stations, with the goal of making EVs more attractive for drivers.
Too much screen time can slow children’s recovery from concussions, but new research suggests that banning screen time is not the answer. The researchers looked for links between the self-reported screen time of more than 700 children aged 8-16 in the …
