Applying CRISPR-based technology to a broad agricultural need, scientists have developed a new technology aimed at Drosophila suzukii, the invasive fruit fly responsible for millions of dollars in crop damage. The technology replaces the need for insec…
Impacts affect the porosity and structure of moons and planets more dramatically than scientists suspected, increasing their potential habitability for life. Studying how those impacts affect planetary bodies, asteroids, moons and other rocks in space …
A large-scale study looked at the impact of incorporating genetic risk for cancer into the GP triage and referral processes in the UK. The research concluded that considering genetic risk could improve referrals for those in need — and importantly, av…
An analysis of bumblebee wings from a network of UK museums shows signs of stress linked to increasingly hotter and wetter conditions.
Severe breathlessness in COVID patients with co-morbidities should be used as a signal for quicker referral for palliative care to help manage their symptoms sooner, new research has found.
A ‘state of the science’ review details the most reported symptoms of 6 cardiovascular diseases (CVDs): heart attack, heart failure, valve disease, stroke, heart rhythm disorders, and peripheral artery and vein disease (PAD and PVD). There are importan…

Researchers have discovered a key vulnerability across all major variants of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, including the recently emerged BA.1 and BA.2 Omicron subvariants. The weakness can be targeted by neutralizing antibodies, potentially paving the way for…
Comprehensive data from several seasons of field research in the Alaskan Arctic will address uncertainties in Earth-system and climate-change models about snow cover across the region and its impacts on water and the environment.
Researchers have developed a new prenatal test that can determine if a fetus or embryo has the right number of chromosomes at a fraction of the time, cost of other genetic tests.
Scientists introduce a new way to label and study the secretome in a living organism. The research team started by genetically editing mouse embryonic stem cells to encode an engineered enzyme.
Neurobiologists have found that fruit flies are pre-programmed to take a nap in the middle of the day. The new article explores a ‘thermometer’ circuit for hot temperatures.
Although the lithophane is an ancient artistic medium, it has never been used to represent scientific data and imagery in a quantitative, controlled manner for tactile visualization and tactile integration. Scientists now are using lithophane and 3D pr…
Researchers identified a metabolic vulnerability in neuroblastoma that could be exploited to overturn these tumors’ resistance to therapy.
Researchers have shown that ‘seeding’ electrodes with lithium ions can help increase the host’s lithium selectivity and repel unwanted elements.
